Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Ummm, hi?I d

Ummm, hi?

I don't know what to say...

Once upon a time there was a little girl who was searching for a roleplay site for kids. She had just quit her last roleplay site, so she needed a new one. She would look up site after site, but there was nothing. One fateful day, a certain magazine came in the mail, sent to her as a present from her grandparents. This magazine said that you could create a character that could be featured in a story that would be published in the magazine. This little girl, who loved writing and creating characters, was so excited. She immeadiately hopped online and starting planning out characters.

But while she was on the magazine's site, she noticed something. 

Inkwell.

On it were tons of roleplays. This was what she had been looking for!

So she asked her parents, and they said that she could join them. For a while, the girl just joined roleplays and enjoyed making characters and using them in stories. But one day, the girl became curious. She had looked at all the different places to chat before, but it had never really interested her. But this time, it did. She started becoming active in threads outside the inkwell, and she discovered fellow theatre lovers in Pudding's Place. She found out about Ski Lodges and SIs and AEs and, well, she was hooked. 

Over the next few years, Chatterbox became a place where she could hang out with her friends, have fun, talk about random stuff, and she just never felt lonely while she was there. She even got the beginning of one of her threads published in Cricket once!

But one day, the girl grew up.

She sat down at her computor desk and sighed.

Even though the sun was clearly shining, the sky seemed dark to her. 

With a heavy heart, she started to write.

Hi.

My name is Jocelyn, but my nickname is Joss. I'm 14 years old and I live in Maine. I love acting and theatre. I'm a Christian with a passion for God. I really love to laugh, and I can be a bit immature, loud, and crazy around my friends. The only sport I'm good at is tetherball, and I think cats are the best animals in the world. I love to draw, even though I'm not that good at it. I have a doll-themed Youtube channel, and I get really embarassed to tell people about it. I'm the weakest in my class at arm wrestling, but I'm the best in my class at writing and english. My favorite thing to do in writing is to create new characters. I have these blue eyes that kind of look a bit greenish, so they remind me of the sea. I have long blonde hair and tannish skin, and I have a natural blush and an annoyingly poofy bottom lip. My glasses annoy me a lot, but people say I look better with them than without them. I listen to literally all kind of music, from showtunes to 80s to heavy metal. I'm really salty to a bunch of people, and having roast sessions is actually a hobbie of mine (all kidding, though, nothing mean for real). 

But I have to leave.

I kind of already left, but I thought I'd make this thread to say goodbye. Not for pity or for having CBers try to get me to come back, but just to say goodbye to you guys. I'm not really going to give an excuse for why I'm leaving, because honestly? I don't know why.

But I might come back! Actually, I'll probably come crawling back to you someday, begging for forgiveness.

I might just be one of those CBers that occasionally posts something like once in a blue moon. 

I just want to say I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!! All of you are so amazinginly incredible and I know that each and every one of you has a big part to play in God's plan. 

I honestly would not be suprised if one, heck more than one of you become like president of the world someday. Even though that't not a thing, if one of you guys want to do it, you could. 

You guys are so brilliant and talented and amazing and kind and uplifiting and supportive and I could go on and on. 

Gwen wants to say bye to Hobbes No I don't!! and Ida wants to say bye to Grace. Heh, I didn't get to be here that long, but I thought of you as a really close friend.

I don't want this to be depressing. I want it to be like a goodbye party!!

HAVE SOME CAKEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bye, guys. I love you so much and I really appreciate you. You guys have helped me through some really tough times and I don' t know where I'd be without you. 

I have to go get ready, I'm having my birthday party at a trampoline park today!

BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D

*hugs*

You were the first one to make me feel happy here, and I can't believe you're leaving. Thank you so much for just being here.

Once there was a bibliophilic nerd who felt at home with virtual strangers that talked about books and art and wrote. 

Hugs, Biblio.

Aww, Joss. We'll miss you so much! Don't forget us, 'kay? If your planning on "crawling back" please do it sooner rather than later, if you can. We love you.

Also, if I've read correctly...Happy Birthday!
