•making grilled cheese sandwiches
•writing haikus during boring meetings
•Googling stuff
•wearing scarves
•reading outloud and doing all the voices
•being cuddly
•helping and encouraging others

Random assortment of Emily trivia:
•I love learning new things, especially languages.
•I love touching soft things.
•When I was a kid I wanted to be a zookeeper, astronaut, pilot, missionary, and a firefighter. Now I want to be an artist and a therapist.
•I think of myself as a world citizen. I love international travel and I love learning about and seeing other cultures. I lived in Mexico when I was younger and I loved it! One of my favorite places I've visited is Nairobi, Kenya. I want to live internationally again, even if for a short amount of time.
•Sometimes, I think about buying a motorcycle. Maybe I should I start by riding one first.
•I'm not thin. I'm soft. And stacked.
•If I had one completely selfish wish that I was not allowed to spend on helping other people or making the world a better place, I'd wish to be an amazing hip-hop dancer.
•I love climbing trees. I always have.
•My iPhone is named Sergio.
•I want to be more active, but I guess I've been waiting for someone to join me. I want to hike and canoe and kayak and climb things and run and dance and re-learn how to cartwheel. Most of those things are more fun with someone else. Wanna join me?
There's more to know. But I don't want to spoil the ending. :)
