Hi, Rachel! I'm pretty new myself, so I'll wait for Lena to give you the run-through. Welcome to the Chatterbox! It's a ton of fun, and you will find a few examples of my oh so scintilating writing on the Inkwell (just kidding about the scintilating part. :)) I hope we see you often here, and don't be surprised if your posts take a few hours or a day to come up, because the Admins have to sort through everything first to make sure it's all right to post on here. And if you can't find a thread you're looking for, check the last page. That's most of what I've figured out. You'll get used to everybody soon - Lena, Koffee, TNO (but with an umlaut over the O), and my astounding self. Have fun!

-Emily

And no, my opinion of myself is not as high as it sounds - I'm actually being sarcastic. As I have said in other threads, tone of voice is really hard to convey over the internet.

Hi Rachel!!!! :):) There used to be another thirteen-year-old Rachel on this site, but who knows if she was real...... :):):) Anyway, this is a great site, yet VERY addicting (I freak out if I go more than a day without posting....). I LOVE animals, too!!! :D:D:D What's your favorite type??? I like bongos (google it), any big cats (especially tigers), parakeets, and pretty much anything else!! :D:D I'm a vegetarian, too!! :):) How long have you been one?? I have for my whole life (I'm twelve). :):):)

Wait, do you want to know about Cricket or the Chatterbox??? :):)

And, about me, I'm twelve, I live in a small farmer town in Maine (surprise! A farmer town in, Maine?!), I have a parakeet named Buddi, a cat named Cat (very creative), and currently am petsitting a canary named Mozart, I am homeschooled (and LOVE it), I LOVE to swim, I play the piano, the harmonica, the recorder, and the bagpipe, I possibly may be an editor someday, I might do YWAM for a year in India when I graduate, I'm a Christian, I go to the best camp ever in only four months (!!!), I go to two youth groups that are pretty amazing, I got my laptop by spilling lemonade over my parent's computer, then fixed it when they bought a new one, so now I have my own, my semi-colon/colon key fell off, and I love the movie Enchanted!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D LOOOONG sentence!! :D:D:D
