Hi! I'm new

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Hi! I'm new

Hi! I'm new to the Chatterbox, but I think I'll like it here. I like books (Especially Percy Jackson and The Hunger Games), musicals (Hamilton for the win!) and writing. I play the piano, too. Right now I"m learning Linus and Lucy from the Peanuts movies. Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes are my favorite comics. I"ve seen every Pixar movie except for "The Good Dinosaur." I know English, and am learning Spanish and Latin. My favorite TV show is The Mandolorian. Well, I guess I've introduced everyone to myself well enough. Bye for now!

Whoa, what happened there?!?

I was trying to say:
I love your name! Welcome to the CB, Annabeth.

I love your name! I'm MoonKitten, and I love Percy Jackson, the Hunger Games, Hamilton, writing, Calvin and Hobbes, and the Mandalorian! I also play the piano :D

Anyway, welcome!! And here's http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/204967  the Ultimate Guide to the CB. It's kinda long, but definitely worth it to understand some of the words you'll see around here :)

Hi Annabeth_Everdeen! Your name is super cool! I'm pangolin, after my favorite animal. It's very cool how you're learning Spanish and Latin. I know English, of course, and bits of Dutch, French, and Irish but I can't speak those fluently. It's also inasanely cool that you play the piano. Piano music is one of my favorites, next to violin, and I've tried learning piano but my fingers got mad at me :P . The Hunger Games is one of my favorite book series too! I finished Catching Fire two days ago and am already halfway through Mockingjay. It's AmAzInG so far!! Also, I think you'll like the Chatterbox too! I would check out the Ultimate Guide that MoonKitten posted, but it appears to have been cut off, so here it is again:

Oh can I call you Annabeth? Or perhaps AE? Oh wait not AE that's already something.... SPEAKING OF WHICH, you never introduced us!!!

Oh yeah. AEs (which stand for Alter Egos) are basically a part of your personality that CBers have appear in their posts, usually talking in a text format. 

Like me! Ginger! Nice to meet you, Annabeth_Everdeen!

\*Hey. I'm Calbi. I suppose I'll be seeing you around...not that I have much choice....*/

~D - don't mind her. I - I'm True.~ 

I'm Barnacle. Don't annoy me, and I won't annoy you.

That's a lie. He'll totally annoy you. I'm Koi, by the way.

Okay so my AEs have doubled the length of this post, so I'd better submit before it gets out of hand. Bye Annabeth_Everdeen! See you around! <333

Hi Annabeth_Everdeen! I'm Sara March!

I am OBSESSED with musicals, and I LOVE Hamilton, too! What's your favorite song from Hamilton? I like "The Room Where it Happens." I also play piano! It's really fun! Have fun around the CB!

I like that one, as well. I think my favorites are "Satisfied," "Wait For It" and "The Election of 1800," which doesn't get enough credit for all the credit it gives us. (HAHAHAHA)

Welcome to the Chatterbox Annabeth! I'm Neverseen, and I've only been here for about a month now. I enjoy Percy Jackson just like you and I can't wait until I get to read the Hunger Games! And, I can't believe your learning to play Linus and Lucy on the piano! Just a little while ago, I was learning that song for piano too! At the moment though, I am working on The Swallow by Burgamuller. Also, what is your favorite Pixar movie? I'd love a recomendation! I'm so glad you've come to join the Chatterbox and I hope you enjoy all your time here! I'll see you around! (:

I like Toy Story a lot. I also love Monsters Inc./Monster University. I was really little when I first watched Monster's Inc, and my older cousin kept going like "Daddy, we're scared, during the opening, and I'm glad my uncle didn't turn it off, because I loved it a lot.

Hello, Annabeth_Everdeen! I'm new here as well :D It's nice to meet you! I like to write a lot as well, maybe you could share some of your work? :) See you around!

Hey, Annabeth! (May I call you that?) I'm Periwinkle, but you can call me Peri. It looks like we have quite a bit in common! I love the same Hamilton songs you do (I haven't listen to Elction of 1800 except for if I was listening to the entire playlist/watching the play- I'll give it a try!), and those comics are great. Have you read the Harry Potter series? You've probably heard of it if you haven't read it, but think Percy Jackson if he were less snarky, orphaned, and a wizard. That's all I'm gonna say. 

Anyways, here's some things that might be confusing you:
AE: Little characters based of a part of a CBer's personality. For example, I might create an AE named Ellie who is based off of my nervous side or my happy side. Whatever works! AEs talk in different fonts, like this or this or *this*
CAPTCHA: The little box of random letters you have to fill out. If you see something like "Kay says mgoyj" that's just someone talking about their CAPTCHA. People name them and treat them as though they were a pet. They also make them a certain animal. Mine's named Wander, she's an owl. 
There's way more info than this in the ultimate guide, those are just some things that confused me when I joined. I think you'll like it here! See you around!

It's nice to meet you! I'm Peppermint, but you can call me Pepper for short. I love your name! I adore the Percy Jackson books (and all of the other Rick Riordan books!), and The Hunger Games is also a great series! I also love Hamilton. :) See you around!
