Konnichiwa everyone! I
Konnichiwa everyone! I'm Arrietty. I love singing, climbing trees and everything to do with Japan. I am a dreamer and I love to read and write. Another one of my passions is animals and nature in general. I love to paint mythical animals and characters of my own creation.
I'm new to the Chatterbox, and I can't wait to get to know everyone.
Sayonara!
-Arrietty
PS. Arrietty isn't my real name, but it's from one of my favourite books, The Borrowers.

S. Clockwork I would have thought it would be yate. You yeet, you yate.

Hi Arietty! Nice to meet you. I'm Abigail, I'm fourteen and a writer, artist, and dancer. I love poetry, ink pens, astronomy, and hand-lettering. As Agent Winter said, I recommend reading the Ultimate Guide to get a better sense of what goes on around here. :P
@S. Clockwork, "yote" is cursed and I refuse to use it. "Yeeted" is the only acceptable past tense form.

Hi Arriety! I don't know if you know this, but there was another Arriety that left a coulpe of weeks ago...... I like calligraphy art, reading, writing, and pretty much all types of art. I love manga and anime too. Sayonara!

Hi Secret! In that case, should I change my name?
(September 8, 2018 - 5:21 pm)
Nah. I like your name. I got mine from my cousin's cat............

Nice to meet you, Abi (can I call you that?). Why is yote cursed?

Hiya, Arrietty! I'm Icy. I've read some of the Borrowers books before, and definitely enjoyed them.
It's super cool that you love to paint Mythical Creatures and characters! I love writing about my OCs/Characters and sketching them, but I can't work with paint.
I also love singing. Do you sing in choir/theater, or just sing for fun? I've personally been singing/performing in theater since I was five.
It's nice to meet you!

Hi Icy. I also love sketching. I sing in theatre and have been doing so since I was six. Right now I'm actually playing the lead role in a local production of Cinderella. Are you involved in anything at the moment?
(September 8, 2018 - 5:26 pm)
Really? That's great!
I'm going to audition for Beauty & The Beast in a few weeks. It'll be my first 'princess' play, though I've done Disney before. Since the age variety in the theater I perform in goes to eighteen, I can't hope for lead roles though.
How is the production going? I've never been in a lead role before, so I have no idea how it would be vs. an ensemble role.
(September 8, 2018 - 8:31 pm)
Icy, good luck! In my experience ensemble is just as fun as lead roles, and just as much hard work. The oldest in my production is only about fifteen, so I guess there's more of an opportunity for younger kids. I haven't really been in any "adult" shows, though I'm auditioning for one next year. I hope your audition goes well!

Hiya, Arrietty! Nice to meet ya! My name is Pooki (which is not my real name) and I see you like to draw too. Nice to meet a fellow artist!
(September 7, 2018 - 4:58 pm)
Nice to meet you, Pooki! I love your name.
(September 8, 2018 - 5:28 pm)
I gotta run, but welcome to the CB! We're so happy to have you!
(September 7, 2018 - 6:54 pm)
Thanks so much, Licensed Bookworm.

Hello! I'm Viola?, or should I say Late To The Party? Anyway, I am an eccentric artist, as you know, and fangirl of many webcomics, as you probably did not. Nice to meet you!
