Hello everyone! 

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Hello everyone! 

Hello everyone! 

Wow, it feels so good to see some familiar faces! I don't really know what to say, I just wanted to pop in and say a little hello to some old friends. I kinda grew up on this site, since I joined in 2011. So many things have changed, and I used to think that was a bad thing, but now I'm happy the CBers of this "new" generation have found their way to make good use of the site.

Anyways, how has everyone been? I've been much more active in theater, cracked out of my shell and made a lovely group of friends. I also still suck at writing, but am experimenting with my art skills more and more. I joined the fandoms of Steven Universe, dodie, and *coughcough* One direction, and I feel like my personality has changed so much since the last time I was here. I kinda feel like I should apologize for the way I acted on here in the past, because I look back of my posts and see that I was a attention seeking, rule-following, everything-has-to-be-perfect brat, but that was a long time ago, hahaha. :)

I love all of you, and miss the lovely times we had. Thank you so so much for wonderful friends and beautiful memories. I hope you'll come say hi if you remember me!

Hello Mei! I very much remember you, but never really got to know you. Happy Valentine's Day!

Hi Butterfly! I don't think you were ever a brat. I remember you trying to protect old threads and I actually though that was pretty cool. I also remember that you made some pretty great art.

Butterfly!!! It's so great to see you again! Aw, I'm glad to hear you've made some good friends. I'm going through a similar scenario at my new school, and slowly but surely, I'm becoming a more outgoing person.

Hey, speaking of theater, I've been taking a technical theater class this year! It's been neat learning stagecraft. What are some of your favorite plays? So far I've worked on The Importance of Being Earnest, and we're gearing up for Singing in the Rain and Peter Pan Jr.

Hi, Butterfly! How have you been? *hugs* Don't feel bad about past actions on here. Nothing I can remember you saying or doing hurt anyone so far as I know. (I was only on for a fraction of time that you were, so I'm probably not the best to say that, lol.) You are awesome, and if you feel bad about anything, we forgive you, and God does too. <3

I'm seriously so happy to see you again. :))

Hi Butterfly! It's lovely to see you again! I'm glad you're doing well, and I'll have to look into dodie! I'm always happy to find some new music.

Butterfly!!! *hugs* You came back! I had to grin when I saw your name here on DtE. You have always been such a sweet person on the CB. You do not need to apologize for who you were as a younger you. Growing up takes a minute, and one has to fall flat a few times to learn how to keep one's balance. You were NOT a brat! You were always so kind and I always looked up to you (and I still do)! That being said, I can 100% relate to changing and becoming a better person. Haha, sorry for that sappy/crazy rant. 

Anywho, how are you?! What have you been up to lately?

Hi there, Butterfly! Long time no see. Of course I remember you, I always liked you as a CBer, plus you're the only other one I know who lives in Texas. (Yee haw lol) I actually never got the impression of you being attention-seeking or perfectionist or bratty, but I know what you mean, some of my early posts when I first joined the CB, like 2015 I don't think I acted as maturely as I should have, and I feel like I was annoying to RP with. Then again, I was 11 and 12 and now I'm 15, so definitely literal growth. Glad you've made some good friends and gotten into theatre. My main focus lately has been choir and classical singing but I still really love theatre. I'm in the Steven Universe fandom too and

*halts* *jumps up and down* D O D I E

Yesssssss! I might need to make a thread about Dodie to seek out the other Dodie lovers because she is so amazing. I was introduced to her by my best friend (who also got me into Steven Universe and RWBY, and I got her into musicals like Hamilton and Dear Evan Hansen) and she's so awesome and I own all her music and have you listened to her new album Human yet? I'm extra excited because my friend is a goddess and she GOT TICKETS I'm seeing her in the fall.

Missed you lots! Hope I didn't post this too late and you still get to see it.

I'm sorry I'm replying late; I hope everyone will be able to see my replies!

@Applejaguar

Hello! Aw, thanks for that. You were always one of those Cbers who I wanted to get to know better but never did. It's good to see you again!

@Leeli

Hi!! *hugs back* I've missed you, and I hope you are doing well!

@Micearenice

Hello! I'm glad you are getting more outgoing and making friends; that's always fun. Right now I'm in Cheaper by the Dozen as Martha, but some of my favorites plays/musicals that I've done are Little Women, The Wizard of Oz, and Beauty and the Beast. 

@Joss

Hello! It's great to see you too! I am doing pretty well, just living life; nothing much interesting or out of the ordinary going on. I hope you are doing well too. :)

@Cho Chang

Hey Cho! *returns hug* Like I've said, I'm doing pretty well; I hope you are the same. Thanks for the words of support, they really mean a lot to me. I wish we could have gotten closer when we were both active; You seemed like a pretty cool person. :)

@Dandelion

Hi!! I don't remember you very well, but the memories that I do have of you are very postive. I hope you are doing well!

@St. Owl

Hey St! I remember you very well; we seemed to get along well. I hope you enjoy dodie's music, and I hope you are doing well. I missed you! :)

@Silverwaxwing

Hello! *hugs* Aw, you're so sweet. I am doing pretty well, just living life as it comes at me. My mental health is getting better, so I'm happy about that. I'm in a show at my theater; we're doing Cheaper by the Dozen and I'm Martha. We open next Friday, so I'm having fun freaking out about opening with my fellow cast members. Everything else has been pretty average, besides the annoying allergies that come along with end of winter. I hope you have been doing well too! It's very good to see you. :)

@Owlgirl

Hi!!! I'm glad to hear from you; you were one of my closest frinds on here, partly because we both live in Texas. And, I'VE FINALLY FOUND SOMEONE ELSE WHO LOVES DODIE. I think you actually might've introduced her to me on discord a couple of years ago, so if that's so, thank you so so much. Yes yes yes, I've listened to her new EP; Monster is the bestest bop, and Arms Unfolding is now close to the top of my list for soft dodie songs.

AHHH I got tickets as well, and I'm SO EXCITEDDDDD. You're probably not going to the same show as me, cuz I knwo she's playing closer to you than the one in Dallas, which is the one I'm going to. It would be cool if we were going to the same show, tho! I hope you are doing well, and please enjoy your concert!

Thank you everybody who replied; I love you all!

*fangirling intensifies* This is a sign from the universe of a meant to be friendship, not only do you like Dodie you're also seeing her too, which I'm super happy for you about. (wow my grammar in that sentence was weird) Yesss Monster is a bop and Arms Unfolding is so beautiful...I also really really love If I'm Being Honest...those piano chords, the lyrics, the way it so painfully and beautiful goes back and forth between minor and major gives me chill. I was also so excited to see Burned Out and She on there. Yeah, it would be cool if we were seeing the same one, although we are seeing the concert a day apart. And oh my gosh I think I did tell you about her, though I don't know for sure...what an honor yay! Hope you enjoy seeing her too :) Lots of love, Owlgirl <3 <3

Aww, thank you, Butterfly! I can for sure the same of you; somehow our circles never really collided ... Are you on the NaNo classroom?

I think so, It's the one called "Calling All CBers" right? The website is super slow, so I don't check it often, but my user is summmerdance if you want to contact me!
