Well I'm not new! But I guess new people could read these...

Five fun facts about yourself:

1) I have become more of an introvert the more art supplies I purchase.

3) I wish to start a webcomic but currently have too many projects. (see 2)

4) I like comics. A lot.

5) I sometimes wish my drawings were less influenced by manga, and sometimes wish it looked more like manga. Because I have a mushy mixture somewhere in between.

Description of yourself (So we can get an idea of who you are):  I will let you guess at what I look like. I like to use "......" a lot at the end of sentences.... And I can't think of anything else to say, so I'll leave it at that.....

1. Homeschooled.

2. Working on a novel (and several short stories that should be novels but aren't).

@Owlfire, Agreed. THE PRINCESS BRIDE is the best movie ever. Though there are some other good ones...

Also, I forgot to add how I came to the CB, but it was because I wanted to find contest information and couldn't find my magazine. I left shortly after I joined, and then came back as Theo/Lexi.

Do you live in England?! (skillfull use of interobang) Because besides myself,I know only English people who use exclamation marks instead of points. And I'm pretty sure only Englanders use full stops instead of periods. Just wondering.

Chatterbox name: True, formerly known as True S.

What brought you to the Chatterbox?  Man, I've been on for so long, I can barely remember that. Let's see. . . I was active on the Spider site a while back, but that was the only magazine site I'd go on. After a while, I got curious about what was behind all of those magazine names. . . and so I stumbled across the best site of all times.

Favorite Cricket character: *Groans* This question gets me every time. But I suppose that the answer would be Muffin. Or Old Cricket.

Description of yourself (So we can get an idea of who you are): Brown eyes that look almost black. I have dark brown hair that is a little longer than shoulder length. It's crazy, so while I normally where it loose or in a pony tale, the top of my head makes me look like a younger, girl version of Einstein. 

Five fun facts about yourself: 

1. I LOVE to read and write. If asked what I like to do, I usually say, "Reading, writing . . . um . . . give me a sec to think of more." 

2. I'm homeschooled, and love learning French! 

3. I'm a rebirth of a demigod.

4. I like to sing, but most of the songs that I sing are hymns and songs from old movies and old song books. Anything (other than the few rare songs) from after 2000, I'm clueless about.

5. I'm a Unificationist, and proud of it.

Not new, but I'll still do this.

Chatterbox name: Nora the Singer

What brought you to the Chatterbox? I always go on the Cricket website, but then I found the Chatterbox and was like, "YES."

Favorite Cricket character: MARTY!

Description of yourself (So we can get an idea of who you are): Short. Soooooooooo short. And skinny. And I have long sort of maple-syrup colored hair with brown eyes and I wear nerd glasses. I'm almost 14 years old, but I find it annoying to put my age on every post. I'm weird, funny (at least I think so), and sweet.

Five fun facts about yourself:

1. I love to sing, act, and just the spotlight in general. But mostly singing. I sing all the time except for when I'm sleeping, pretty much. I'm singing "Let it Go" right now as I type.

2. I'm currently writing a CB novel, and soon I will be famous and have millions of adoring fans begging to take pictures with me. Wait, I think that last part was a snippet of my dream last night. But it could happen!

3. Nora isn't actually the name I go by in real life, but it is my real first name. I go by my middle name in real life, which I'm not going to tell you unless you ship me 12 pounds of gummy worms.

4. I love to write and read, obviously, or else I wouldn't be on the CB.

5. You know Asher? We're close friends in real life. He's literally sitting right next to me on the couch right now, because we're having this Easter party thing at my house.

Ello, my friends! Guess who won't stop singing "Let it Go"? -Asher

Sorry, he took my laptop. 

Oh my gosh, Ozzie says hakd! YES, OZZIE, I WAS HACKED BY ASHER!

Sort of.

You know Asher? That's so cool! I would so love to meet a CBer in real life!

Yeah! I'm actually the one who got him to join the CB. He reads all of my Cricket magazines. Sometimes without asking.

You can't stop me from enjoying fine literature.

-Asher 

Psssshhhhhhh.

I've been meaning to post on this thread for a long time, but I haven't gotten around to it until now. So, here goes! 

Chatterbox name: Pearl 

What brought you to the Chatterbox?  My sister @TheChocabookaholic loved the CB, so it didn't take long for me to join her. 

Favorite Cricket character: n/a 

Description of yourself (So we can get an idea of who you are): Brown hair, brown eyes, about 5'5", with a large-ish, athletic-ish frame. I like stylish outfits, good books, slave-driving my siblings, cups of tea, silence, and dreaming about my future (hmm.. which one does not belong?). 

Five fun facts about yourself: 

1. I have 6 siblings, all younger than me.

2. I'm homeschooled. 

3. We live in the country and have chickens, cattle, 2 dogs, 2 cats, a big garden (not completly planted yet), and we have had pigs in the recent past. 

4. I am in (figurative) remission from a pinterest addiction. I lived on pinterest for a few months, pinning for 2-4 hours a day without thinking, then one day I tried to get on and it was blocked. :)

5. Sometimes I do schoolwork even when my mom gives us a day off, simply because I get bored of wasting time. Sometimes I waste time when I'm supposed to be doing school. It basically balances out.  

I'm also a yoga fanatic, I want to be a naturopath when I get out of medical school, and I want to live in Italy sometime in my life.
