Here's the form!

CBer Name: Hunter

Pronouns: She/her

Hobbies: Singing, jiu jitsu, soccer (though I don't watch it), reading. I'm not particularly good at any of the skill based ones though - I just enjoy them. I am interested in everything, though.

Favorite food: I can never decide, maybe soup dumplings?

Favorite book: that's a really hard choice, for a long time it was anything by Rick Riordan but nowadays (though I'm still the biggest fan) I've been reading a lot more dystopian stuff. Maybe the Divergent series? I don't know, it's a really hard choice.

Favorite TV series: N/A 

Favorite Movie: No idea, I don't watch many movies. I recently watched Knives Out, and that was pretty good.

Favorite musician: Lin-Manuel Miranda

Favorite colour: I wobble back and forth between, blue, purple, and yellow.

About how long have you been on the CB: I first joined in the summer of 2020 but I only stayed for a couple months and then I was on and off. I also often come on without posting.

Other: I like everything, I am not picky at all. Foods, movies, books, etc., I may criticize but I almost never actively dislike something.

Would today be the date for getting a group or am I incorrect and in just some kind of a time warp?

Hey all, I'm really sorry, I was out doing a family thing! I'll make the groups tomorrow... It may take some time because there's so many of you... But I will try to have it out by noon tomorrow, is that okay?

Here I am, a day late, with the groups! I apologize again for being late. I counted and I think I have grouped all of you, but if I missed you don't be afraid to speak up!

 

Tsuki and DarkVine are the Dragon Group.

 

Silver Crystal and pangolin are the Sunset Group.

 

LunaWolf, Flamarestii, and Sterling are the World Group.

 

Hunter and Red Starlight are the Song Group.

 

Rueby Moonnight and Pancake are the Magic Group. 

 

FerventWinter, Firefly, and Avara are the Muse Group.

 

WordSong and Writing_in_the_dark are the Owl Group.

 

MoonKitten and Raven are the Night Group.

 

Super Cooper Hobbies and Gallium are the Creativity Group.

 

Jaybells and Tealeaf are the Tea Party Group. (Since Jaybells likes macorons and Tealeaf likes tea, I thought the group name was pretty fitting ;)) 

 

 

I know I usually just name the groups after colors, but I had some fun coming up with weirder and hopefully more creative names. 

 

 

 

Alrighty! Here's how it works:

 

 

1. Create a separate thread to talk to your group member(s). I'd recommend titling the thread @(Group member(s)'s name here) to catch their attention, but you can also name the thread after your group if you like.

 

 

2. Start the conversation! Check out each other's forms if you haven't already and find something you have in common--or find something the other person/people likes/like that you haven't heard of before--and talk about it!

 

 

Also: If your group member(s) do not respond within a week, let me know and I'll put you in a different group. If you are in a group of three and one of the members is not responding, just chat with the other one.  

 

 

 

That's it! Let me know if you have any questions or concerns! Happy friend-making!

Hi Nut, I play piano too! I was thinking maybe since we both got here after the groups were made, we could be a group! Here's my form: (n/a means not applicable)

CBer Name: Phoenix Tears

Pronouns: she/her

Hobbies: Running track and cross country, playing the piano, music in general

Favorite food: Ben & Jerry's half baked ice cream!! Literally the most delicious food ever.

Favorite book: uhm...gosh, I don't know, I like them all. I really like Agatha Christie right now.

Favorite TV show (if you don't watch TV, just write N/A): Jeopardy!

Favorite movie: erm...everything Disney, bar The Black Cauldron and Snow White.

Favorite singer/songwriter/general musician: eee...Franz Liszt/P!nk/Dua Lipa/Lin-Manuel Miranda (note that this changes about once a week) (except for Lin-Manuel Miranda he's got that spot for ever.)

Favorite color: Blue

About how long have you been on the CB?: eee...6 months, maybe?

Other: I have an adorable, fluffy, salt-and-pepper guinea pig named Nut. I'm wicked bad at casual conversation.

Hi Phoenix Tears!

Glad you reached out to me! I'm excited to be in a group, should we brainstorm ideas? Maybe...The Group-that-got-here-after-all-the-groups-were-made? OK I'm just joking. That's way to long and I have totally no ideas for what group we should be.

I love your name on the CB! Mine is associated with my real name, but since it just popped up in my head one day it stuck.

I also love Disney! Yes, I agree that Lin-Manuel Miranda is awesome. :) Dos Orugitas (however you spell that) was a great hit.

Lol once I was reading a paragraph on guinea pigs, and it said that they were EASY TO CLEAN. Then I did a bunch of research on that and wanted one because they are really cute. I found out that they are NOT easy to clean, so that was the end of the hope for getting a guinea pig.

I should probably not put all my answers in here right now because they really should be in the group XD. Should we just call our group the Piano Group 'cause that's all I can really think of?

 

Excited to get to know you better!

-Nut Le Squirrel

P.S. Oh, and if you can't fit Nut Le Squirrel, I often like to be called Rora. It's one of my characters' names.
