It's my CBversary!

It's my CBversary!
It's my CBversary! As of today, February first, I have now been on the CB for a whole year! Strange... it feels like so much longer. Yet so much shorter at the same time. I read a few of my old posts and I noticed how differently I write. I think I've improved!
I've changed how I act on here. I'm more like myself, when before I used to try to act like how I thought other people on the CB acted. I would try to be crazy and wild, would use way too many exclamation points when they weren't needed. I am crazy and wild, and I'm definately not against a lot of exclamation points, but that's not my entire personality. It's just the part I originally wanted people to see. Now I try to show my whole, real personality, who I truly am. And I'm happier about it.
I'm rambling now. Sorry.
I am so glad I've met you all. I count some of you as my best friends, and it's strange to think that I've never seen most of you. I feel like I know all of you so well, without ever seeing your faces. I have watched as we've all grown and changed through this year, gained CBers and lost. Yet, through it all, we have a community. One Chatterbox which calls us to write, draw, inspire, create worlds and people, cities, heros, spies, and villians. So thank you all, for the charries, stories, and memories.
On a different note: I was published! I got the February mag yesterday! Yay!
I love you all so much. Thank you for being my friends. Here's to many more wonderful years together!

Thanks, Dandelion! It's true though- I'm much more comfortable being myself now. I don't know if it was the CB or just getting more friends in real life, but I'm a lot more confident. I'm much happier here and in the real world acting how I am.
Eevee says Finn! Have you been watchin Star Wars, Eevee?

Thanks BookBug! That's a really kind thing for you to say. I think you are one of the kindest, most accepting and encouraging people I've ever met.

Congratulations on one year, Cockleburr! I remember when you joined as Lyra S, last year. I remember your part in my Gods and Goddesses roleplay. I would say more but I have to go!
(February 2, 2017 - 3:24 pm)
Thanks, Scylla! The Gods and Goddesses roleplay was so much fun! Did I tell you I found the video thing you made for it? It was cool! I don't think I ever thanked you for telling me to change my name. Lyra S. wasn't my true name here. Cockleburr is, and I probably wouldn't even have stayed if I didn't know my name. So, thank you.

Aww, you're welcome! I'm grateful that I could help you find your name. Also, I'm sorry about cramming so much text into each slide of the video; I should've edited it more thoroughly. I've improved now, and I might animate some of my favourite RPs in a while!

Happy Cbversary!!! Have some sparkles!!!
Cockleburr, you are one of the amazingest, creativest CBers on here (yes, I know amazingest and creativest aren't words, who cares,) and we all love you. You are really fun to rp with, and you're just a really unique person. Have a slice of virtual cake :)

Thank you, Riddler! Wow, your words mean so much to me! That makes me feel so happy. Thanks for the virtual cake! Yummy!

Aww! Happy (One day late) CBversery Cockleburr! Heh. This reminds me that my own CBversery is coming up. I remember joining a couple weeks after you, and thinking you were so cool. XD Anyway, happy one year of being a CBer!
(February 2, 2017 - 5:45 pm)
Thank you, Mirax! I never knew you thought I was cool! I always thought you were the cool one, with your epic mix of Star Wars and Jane Austen. I remember when you joined! I can't wait for your CBversary!
