Hey!

You!

This is important.

Tomorrow at noon (Tuesday, June 16 2009, 12:00 pm), we will be having our second teen program of the summer.

This is a really good program, because it revolves around food.

And you know how we like to feed you at these things.

So you'll get to decorate food, and then eat it!

And then you can go home and feel the joy and love of sugar!

So you should come here.

Tomorrow.

At noon.

Yup yup.

For the Glorious 3rd of June in the Great Year 2009

Well, I know I at least am excited.

Because tomorrow is our first teen program of the summer!

Wednesday, 3:00 pm is when we will be playing Rock Band at the Five Forks branch!

It will be absolutely brilliant!

you want to show up. you know you do.

We will even give you food!

And you can even ask us, 'can we play video games at the library more often?'

And we will say, 'Yes! Yes you can!'

And then everyone will go home happy, including me.

Because who wants to do boring stuff at the library?

Only boring people.

We want to do fun stuff at the library, seeing as we are cool people.

So do not forget.

But if you can't make it . . .

Don't worry!

We will play video games again, I promise. You can even tell us which ones you want to play! And then maybe sometime in the future we can play them!

Eternally yours,

The Ebullient Genius of a Teen Rep.

It has been a while . .

Alas, this blog has not been updated in a while.

But that is because we haven't had such exciting news since the last post!

Not long ago, the teen Summer Reading Program started. This means that you can sign up for it and get cool stuff just for reading books.

And we have all these programs this summer! Like starting next week! Check it out y'all!

http://www.gwinnettpl.org/ProgramsAndEvents/EventListing/EventList.aspx is where you will find all the teen programs in the whole system.

At Five Forks, we will have a ROCK BAND program next Wednesday at 3:00 pm.
This is so cool because we will play the video game and be all, 'yeah i so rock, i rock more than you,' and then someone else will play and they'll be all, 'nah i rock more' and so on until everyone plays and we decide that we are all awesome.

And we'll eat food too!

And then we'll have another program on like the 16th in which we will decorate food and eat it and stuff!

And then another program on July 7th in which we will play Cranium! Because everyone needs to play games at the library!

And our last teen program will be killaz too because we will play Super Smash Brothers Brawl on July 30th!

Is this not the best summer of your life?

Clearly, it is.

You can thank me later.

Teen Program NEXT WEEK!

I know I have not updated in like TEN THOUSAND YEARS and you are all wondering, 'Why has the Five Forks Library Teen Blog not been updated? Is there nothing happening at Five Forks? Should I cry about this?'

BUT-

We just haven't had any programs in a while! That is all! And now we will be having one again! So you can stop grieving!

And DID YOU KNOW?

This program is super cool. We are going to have a real life Comic Book Guy come in and teach you how how to do comic book art. His name is Kyle Puttkamer, and he owns the Ever Amazing Galactic Quest store, and he is going to come in to this library and show how all his mad skills and you will be amazed and you will even learn how to use the same kind of mad skills!

And this is all for free! And there will be food!

This will be happening next week, on the 15th of April at 4:00 PM and that is one week away!

I know I am terribly excited about this, because this is a real professional dude teaching you stuff and not just me being a goof and teaching you stuff!

Trust me, you want to be at the library for this.

Check it out, right?


Seriously awesome, yes?
And look!
You can create a computer game at THE FIVE FORKS BRANCH!
That's the one I work at!
But you can do it at Collins Hill and Suwanee too, in case the Five Forks class fills up before you get a chance to register AND you can make things out of keyboards and stuff at Lilburn, Dacula, and Snellville!
Teen Tech Week this year is WAY more awesome than Teen Read Week was!
(And that was pretty awesome, but hello! Making a computer game? When will you ever get a chance to do that again?)
So . . .
CALL THE HELPLINE. YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS.
For realz.

Tomorrow!

Today is a good day.

But tomorrow is an even better day.

Do you have any idea what wonders await you tomorrow?

TOMORROW IS THE DAY OF OUR NEXT AWESOME TEEN PROGRAM. 0_0

And we will be doing ORIGAMI.

I know, right?

And guess what else?

WE WILL HAVE SEMI-JAPANESE FOOD.

Like candy and stuff! From places near Japan! Because who wants to eat American candy when folding paper? No one!

We're going to make flowers and cranes and doodads out of pretty paper and when we finish we will marvel at our mad skill and absolute brilliance and then eat some more candy and say, 'Ah, aren't we worldly and cultured here? We are definitely the envy of, well, pretty much everyone else, because we are just that cool. I bet there're teens in Japan who wish they were here right now.'
In fact, I there are probably some over there in Asia reading this and thinking, 'Man, if only we lived in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Then we could do stuff that we do here only it will be there and that means it will be better.' Seriously, yo.

So yeah, Tuesday the tenth of February at 3:30, which is like 30 hours from now, except not exactly.

And you can hang out there for two hours if you want! Or you can just hang out for a bit if you can't handle the incredible awesomeness that will reside in the meeting room at the Five Forks library!

Whooeee! I am so not going to be able to sleep tonight!

Over the hills and far away . . .

Brace yourself; I have bad news.

The library will be closed from the 24-26 of this month.

What's that? Do I hear the tracks of tears running down your lovely young faces?

Ahhh, the holiday season! 'Tis enough to bring tears to everyone's eyes! And we have hardly any holiday-tastic books available, because all you little- I mean, delightful young teens, who are a wonder to behold and strike joy into the hearts of all you meet, keep checking them all out! How am I supposed to keep a holiday display stocked if there aren't any holiday books for me to put there?

But I have good news too!

We have program information on our Glorious Library Website! Huzzah!
So go look and see our Origami thingamarole, which you are all welcome to come to on February 10th at 3:30.
And then later we will tell you of more awesome stuff you can be a part of! Because the fun never ends at the Five Forks branch!

Best Regards in the Glorious New Year,

Anni
