Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Hi! I am

Hi! I am brand-new to Cricket Chatterbox. It looks like a lot of fun! I can not WAIT! I am a HUGE  horse fan, LOVE books, enjoy Cricket magazine, and will eat almost anything chocolate as long as it does not have nuts :) I also LOVE  playing the flute and writing books. I also enjoy acting and singing. I am lucky enough to have six pets out of my family's  TWENTY FOUR!!!!!!!! animals. I have, two cats (Scooter and Nessa), two chickens ( Bluebell and Lou Lou), one WONDERFUL purebred 16-year-old Arabian horse named Yukon, and one Chihuahua named Mini who I have had for a month. I am homeschooled and LOVE it!! I have lived in California for two years and hope to live here for the rest of my life.:):):)

YAY!:) Do you have any pets? What songs do you like to play on your flute? I like to play Minuets.:)

Hey Becka, since you're sort of new to this site, I'll tell you which thread/post things you might like.  Since you're homeschooled, you may like my post/thread thing (what's the difference between a post and a thread???) in the Down to Earth section that starts with "I have three..." and in the same section you may like mine that starts with "PETS!!! Iwasn't.." because you were curious about pets.  Umm, let's see, you may like in the Pudding's Place section, look at mine that starts with "What instruments does..." and you'll probably like anything that Kimberly has added a comment on.  You have an Arabian horse????  Awesome!  How old can horses live to be?  I have two cute parakeets and a grumpy old cat who hates to be touched who just happens to be staring at me right now...  I don't know what he wants!?!  Tell your sister that I think she's really nice and be sure to say that I say "Thanks for everything about Alice.":) You have to read the thing about pets to understand! :):)

A guide to the Chatterbox? Good idea. :) And now I'll reveal my Evil Plot. I will assume a secret identity, and pop up somewhere around here, and you'll just have to guess who I am. There are bound to be enough new people for it to be hard to guess. Heh Heh Heh... ;)

Hi Paige!:)

My sister, Kimberly, has shown me all around the Chatterbox, and what you put was really helpful. Thanks!:) Kimmie has also told me about you. She thinks that you're really nice, too.:):):) I'm not sure how long horses can live, but I've seen one that is 39 or 40!!! WOW! But he couldn't be ridden anymore. My sister also has an Arabian named Shasta. He's ADORABLE! He doesn't look like one of the elegent Arabians, like Yukon, but one of the adorable ones! Also, Shasta nickers more.:) My mom says that Yukon doesn't nicker as much because he was trained at the Arabian School, and probable wasn't loved as much as Shasta was when he was a foal. I have a fat cute kitten named Nessa, after the witch in Wicked. I used to want to see the musical Wicked, but now that the original cast isn't playing, I'm not as anxious to see it. I wish that they sold a video! By the way, I have VERY exciting news for Wicked fans. I don't know if anyone already knows this, but sometime this year or next year, a movie of Wicked is coming out! YAY!:) I love Cricket and Chatterbox already!

Tell Kimberly I think she's nice too! :)  You are, too!  And so is Emily, but you can't exactly tell her that in person...

Dear Rebecca,

I am also a huge horse fan! And what do you know? Arabians are my favorite breed! I don't actually have a horse (sigh!), but I do have the cutest (and naughtiest) cat named Pudding.
