Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

I’m back!

I’ve missed you guys so much! Now that I’ve gotten productivity under control, I think I can manage being on the CB. I love the Chatterbox so much! It’s a magical place, it really is. I love developing AEs, collaborating on RPs, and overall improving my writing skills. If I don’t have time, I’ll make time. This is so much more than just a forum. It changes lives. And I want to aid in changing lives. In fact, the Chatterbox is sort of like a library, a place where you can be transported to magical worlds, learn new things, and meet new people.

Each and every CBer has a place in my heart. I’m so sorry I left, I remember that when other CBers left, I actually wanted to cry. I know that I sent out huge ripples when I left, which I shouldn’t have done! I caused you guys pain, and I hope you forgive me for that.

You CBers are the nicest people ever, I know I’ll get a warm welcome back. Please introduce yourself if you’re new, I’d love to meet you. Is it true that Icy is back too? And also, can someone catch me up on the AE drama? AEs are so good for a creative outlet. Are the active CBers still active? Do we have any new CBers that are active? Please, please tell me!

I’ve made more friends IRL, too. My newest friend is this Muslim girl who reminds me so much of Cayke, but I know it isn’t her. She’s the happiest, most positive person (except maybe you guys XD). She’s so encouraging, and it’s really rubbing off on me. I’ve recently become obsessed with quotes, so I’ll be throwing out a lot. I’m so happy with school right now! I also have a math contest coming up soon, wish me luck!

Candy and cupcakes,

Mei ♡

Wow what a coincidence, I'm back too...

MEEEIII! Sorry, it's just reading this post just made my day. It has been ages since I've last seen you - besides on a few spare threads here and there. There is so much that has gone on since you left. We have had a flood of the most spectacular new CBers ever. As in, we were getting like five new people a day for almost two weeks straight. I don't know how many sticked around out of those numbers, but they are all awesome people, and most are on the younger age scale.

If you want to hear about AE drama... oh my goodness, it's insane. With Zeon, he's being chased by practically every new AE girl out there, but he is - and forever will - stay true to his Arwen. Uhm... Quill and MewFour, kinda up in the air with that one. It's so sad reading their posts to one another, because they are both so scared to... I would say show emotion or affection. But regardless, Quill refuses to ever put eyes on another AE besides Mew, although she'll barely admit at liking him still. A lot.

For the other AEs, there was a huge dramatic fall with Bolton and his endless stream of girls. He's broken so many hearts... And there is an AE mansion RP going on too.

As for us CBers, there is a ton. We are currently dominating the world (restarted from 2013), doing new picturings, discussing the usual, creating new games, everything. And, as I said, there are a ton of new CBers, so we are trying to get to know each other all better. The sad news is that Indigo is leaving... Although she did have good reasons for herself, so I am not going to argue there.

It's awesome that you've made what sounds to be an amazing friend! Speaking of friends, I am actually starting to make a new one through a foreign exchange student from Taiwan. He speaks a bit of English, and so it's really cool to learn about his culture and life compared to ours here.

And good luck with your math contest, Mei!

I'm so glad I made your day!

New people are awesome, I'd love to meet them and I hope they all stay! Younger is fine, because then they can grow up on the CB. Poor Quill and MewFour! And bad Bolton. I wonder if it's too late to join the mansion RP? I saw your world domination thread, too. But I am really sad that Indigo is leaving . . . I've always liked her.

I'd love to hear more about the student from Taiwan! I think comparing different cultures is really cool.  And just like Booksy, thanks about the math contest!

Indeed, I agree that younger is brilliant. Fresh minds, fresh ideas, they make the CB sparkle. I don't think it's too late to join the RP, although Mew's in charge, so ultimately it is up to him... He's not in the best of moods. Indigo was a fantastic person, and I cannot image the CB without her, although I suppose time moves people on.

The student from Taiwan is amazing! I haven't had much of a chance to talk to him, but he is really quiet and friendly. Recently, I brought up the American Revolution to him, and he explained about the revolution Taiwan is in right now because China is trying to take control of them. It was fascinating, although sad hearing about it. And the size... such a small country land-wise, yet so crowded.

And you're welcome!

Hi Mei!  I'm Trebel Clef.  I joined the CB not too long ago.  Everyone on here is so friendly and nice.  I am really happy I joined.  You don't know me, but I wanted to say I'm happy to meet you. I hope I will see you around on the CB.  I don't really know anything about the AE drama because I just joined.  Though, I know there is an AE mansion RP.  It's really cool that you use quotes.  They are very inspiring.

Nice to meet you, Trebel Clef! (And by the way, it's actually spelled treble clef?) Although, maybe you spelled it that way on purpose . . .

I'm happy you joined too, and I hope the CB improves your writing and your life like it did mine.

I doubt you'll remember or know who I am, due to the fact that you left so soon after I began. No matter-- you really left a legacy behind, so I think I've seen enough to know that you were a great person. Congratulations on that!

I going to leave a quote (one of my favourites) from a book series I've been obsessing over called Throne of Glass.

Kestrel, I was on for a huge amount of time. Of course I remember you! You were awesome!

And I love that quote!

Thanks so much for telling me, Mei!  I just realized I spelled that wrong!  *laughs*  And I thought I was a great speller....Laughing
