Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

This is a

This is a feel-good-make-other-people-happy thread.

Basically, the idea is that you write one thing you are proud of yourself for (chatterbox related or not), and give someone else a compliment (probably chatterbox related). The thing is, you have to choose a person who hasn't already been complimented, so that everybuggy has something nice said about them eventually! (e.i., so that 14 different people don't compliment TNÖ:P)

Oh, and you can't just compliment yourself without giving another person a compliment. Or vice-verse. And the person you pick doesn't have to be someone you know well, just someone who you can say something nice about.    

So here's mine:

I am proud of myself for being on the Chatterbox since it opened (I remember when there were two threads on Down to Earth!) and, hmmm... I want to compliment Grace for always having great ideas, like SI and book clubs.

Thanks so much, Lena! That means a lot to me.

 

I am proud of myself for having the courage to give a speech in front of about half the student body at a school event, and I want to compliment BellaTrix for always being creative and a friend to everyone. Everyone on Chatterbox is awesome, too! And Willa, this is a fabulous idea.

Thanks, Allison!! That's so nice!! :):D I would like to compliment Allison for her great poetry skills!! :)

I would also like to compliment Jenni for being such a fun person and good friend, Koffee for her random and crazy awesomeness, and Laura for her funniness and spunk. :) I would like to compliment everyone individually, so I will be back! :)

Oh . . . compliment myself?  Lessee . . . I am proud of myself for becoming vegan and for stopping any lying I was doing (I told my mom I came on Chatterbox and said sorry, and she forgave me!!!!!).

Yeah... I already complimented Allison about her poetry though, and we're only allowed to do a person once. But that's okay! :) Allison's poetry is great. 

 

You told your mom and she forgave you? And you're still allowed to come on? Yay! That's great for you!!! :)

I'd like to compliment Lena because she is really sweet and caring about other people, and when she thinks that she is being mean she makes a thread saying sorry for everyone.

I guess I'll say I'm proud of me for staying myself through all these years and not changing (LIke my use-to-be-friend) into someone else so I could be popular. (I am also proud that I found this website! Without you guys, I would DIE!)

Oh, you know, piano practice, clarinet practice, camp, ballet, and the fact that I was going to start next school next week but I can't take the evaluation tests untill Mon, so we're starting in two weeks instead........................in other words, I've been a bit busy. But I'll try to put in some time for y'all every day from now on, K? And I'll warn you if I'm gonna be very busy and won't have time, as well, I promise.
