1. How long have you been on the CB? What are your impressions of the CB? Anythings you wish were different?
Almost two years, now. My impression is I guess that it's a quirky, funny, but kind of overly censored den for fellow fangirls/boys. I kind of wish it was less censored, tbh. I get it it's supposed to be kid friendly, but as I've grown up (I think a lot older than I am for a variety of reasons but mostly because middle school plus my class having gutter minds) the fact is sometimes when you want to talk about stuff like depression or whatever you just can't really fit into a little kid friendly box. I rarely talk to my friends online because I'm kind of having a general thing with a variety of beliefs, my friends having complicated problems with life I'm not sure how to help them with... and talking to my online friends to try to get help, sometimes you just really have to say what you actually mean, and that's usually some pretty heavy, not sparkles and smiles and rainbows stuff. When I can't talk to people about important stuff that makes it so I'm less close to them. The fact I can't talk about things that are really bothering me without fear of being censored or offending everybody's feelings makes it hard to take the friendships seriously, which is basically I haven't been on recently. Like at all.
whhheee that was long and complicated.
2. What are you wearing today?
Currently, a black zip up jacket, this pair of old but really comfy athletic shorts, and a hockey style Harry Potter shirt that says HOGWARTS across the top, with a crest with all four houses and then underneath it SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY. My hair is still in morning crazies and is half up, half down because I put my hair up the day before.
3. What is your style of writing?
I like exploring stereotypical worlds/concepts with a twist, or cyberpunk. Cyberpunk is fun to write. For instance my newest idea would be an exploration of time travel theories where a well meaning girl accidently wrecks the space time continium and then has to try and fix it. Or something. I haven't been writing a lot recently.
4. What grade are you in/what is it like being in the grade you are in? What's your school like?
I'm in sixth grade, but have only like a month left before summer. I'm actually pretty happy with sixth grade. I have a couple of pretty nice friends in my grade and some seventh/eighth grade friends. My school's pretty techy and thinks it's really good at what it does, and so it squanders money letting us borrow ipads or remodeling, and then doesn't pay enough money giving us decent lunches. Still, overall, pretty good. Not looking forward to seventh grade. I don't want newbies, and I don't want my eighth grade friends to leave.
5. What are you planning on doing today?
Not much. This week has been stressful, I'm tired and not very creative. Plan my next art project and figure out what supplies I need. Play video games. Maybe go for a walk?
6. What's the reason behind your CB name?
Indigo was the name of the first CB character I wrote. I made it my name because I feel like on here I can be whoever I want, creating my own personality and story instead of my actual self.
7. What do you look like irl? (You can totally skip this if you want to)
Pale skin, freckles, curly and messy hair. A slight tendency to smirk instead of smirking. Tall and relatively slim.
8. How's life in general?
Sucky. I'm sick of lemons.
9. Should I make more questions?
Leaving this up for you to decide.

I'm doing this too!
How long have you been on CB? What are your impressions of CB? Anything you wish were different?: I've been doing this since this month. It's pretty explosive so far. I kind of wish we could animated GIFs, 'cause I've got some pretty rocket ones. But at least we can do our art.
What are you wearing today?: A short dark green dress, brown cut-off bike shorts, a grey undershirt, my leather bracelet with metal spikes, my compass necklace, and a blue glass amulet.
What is your style of writing?: I kind of like first-person writing, usually fantasy or sci-fi because I like dragons and laser blasters, and it's nice when you can really be in the protagonist's shoes.
What grade are you in/what is it like being in the grade you are in? What is your school like?: Okay. I'm homeschooled, and I'm finishing up sixth grade. It's pretty explosive, since I'm doing integers and we actually don't do those things that the public schools use to fill the time. My school is my house, and most of my lessons are in the living room.
What are you planning on doing today?: I'm going to finish up my fan art of Ellegaard and Magnus, randomly browse Meme Blender, play the fourth episode of Minecraft Story Mode, read, and maybe spend some time lounging around the living room.
What's the reason behind your CB name?: I have an OC named Lap Runner. Of all of my OC's, she's the most like me, right next to one named Marble.
What do you look like irl?: I'm tall and lanky. I've got messy long, brown hair, brown eyes, and light-tan skin. I actually don't care how I look. That's why my hair is messy.
How's life in general?: Just EXPLOSIVE! I spend my weekends dancing, drawing, and running. I've got anime drawing class tomorrow so I'm basically happy with life.
Should I make more questions?: UP TO YOU!

1. A couple of years, I think. Probably almost 5 years. My first impression was that it was a place full of Cool People. I wish it was a bit less censored, honestly.
2. Hesitant Alien shirt, black shorts, red high-tops.
3. My style of writing? That is a very good question. I...do not know. Very concise and descriptive.
4. I'm in 9th grade, and I've decided that taking engineering was the worst possible decision. Also: my Latin teacher is quite possibly pagan. My school is?? Very diverse and very accepting and I love it.
5. School then art then reading and working on a bracelet.
6. It's my preferred name.
7. I'm pretty pale, I think. I burn instead of tanning. I have really dark brown hair; I think it's grown darker since I last dyed it. I have freckles on my nose (!!) and hazel eyes.
8. I have !!! a significant other. Not the person I mentioned in the Relationship Troubles thread; a person I've known since 6th grade.
9. Yes; I'm so full of myself and I love to answer questions about myself.

1. I've been on the CB for almost exactly a year. In fact, my CBversary is is 4 or 5 days! I really love it on here!!! I actually found it when I was trying to write to the Letterbox. I was looking on the bottom of the Letterbox page and I found the URL for the CB instead of the email address for the CB. I ended up on here and never left! At the moment I can't think of anything I would change.
2. Right now I'm wearing pink PJs with a minion (from Despicable Me) surrounded by cupcakes on it.
3. Hmmm.... I haven't written much lately except for school assignments, but I've attempted to start a few stories and I like writing fantasy.
4. I'm in 6th grade right now. I like some parts, but hate others. Our grade has one really nice awesome teacher, one annoying, occasionally nice, and sort of mean teacher, and one really mean really annoying teacher. Luckiy, I have the really nice teacher and she's AMAZING!!!! I don't feel ready for middle school at all. At first I didn't think it was too big of a deal, but now I'm getting closer and closer to 7th grade and I don't feel ready. I'm not ready to leave my elementary school behind. One thing that's different about my school is that 6th grade is in the elementary school, but in most towns it's in middle school. There's going to be a new middle school with 6th grade included, but I like it the way it is, and even though I won't be in elementary school when they take away 6th grade, it's probably going to be pretty weird.
Sorry for how long that was, if you skipped over it I don't blame you!
5. Well, let's see... go on the CB and sleep.
6. When I joined I was reading the Inheritance Cycle books, and Dragonrider was one of the first things that popped into my mind.
7. I have straight dirty blond hair, blue eyes, braces, and I'm very short.
8. Pretty good. My birthday is in 9 days!!!
9. Yes, if you want to. This was a great survey!
