Hi! So I've been meaning to ask you something for a while. I believe you and Amythest are sisters, and this goes for her, too (I didn't think both your names would fit in the title, but if you are sisters or otherwise related would you show this to her?). Have you ever thought about joining Girl Scouts? I feel like you'd really like it. You've mentioned you're homeschooled, and I think it'd be such a great way for you specifically to make friends because you'd be doing things you've mentioned enjoying - exploring and learning about nature, helping your community, singing songs.

I just felt like you and Amythest would enjoy it, but I'm not trying to be pushy or anything, so sorry if I come off that way.

Yes, we're sisters! It's probably somewhat noticeable as we often seem to mention the same books or music, lol. Anyway, I think your suggestion is really good! I don't know why I haven't given much thought to joining a Girl Scout troop (well actually it was probably because I wasn't too knowledgable about what Girl Scouts do) but now that you mention it, I think you're right, I probably would enjoy it! Idk if I'll have enough time this year, because my homeschool schedule is looking like it's going to be Very Intense - but if I get an opportunity, I will most definitely give it a try! (ackk I'm using way too many exclamation marks~) Thank you so much for suggesting it - it's so nice of you to go out of your way to share something Amethyst and I would enjoy, and I appreciate it greatly :)

Oh, and don't worry, you didn't come across as pushy at all! I think actually you never seem pushy - you're always really sweet and caring to people :) I actually got kinda excited when I saw you'd @'d me, lol.

Iffy says <axoog>. Well, Iffy, if you will go around lifting axes, you must expect to get out of breath and start puffing a bit *sigh* She never learns her own limitations.

<yesid> <ooooo!>

Yay! I'm so happy I was able to suggest something you might like. If you do think you're too busy to do it this year but are interested, they've also got summer camps you can try when you're out of school.

Oh, that's good to know that they have summer camps! Thank you :)

Hi Peri!! Tysm for suggesting that, I really ought to consider it :) You're right, it might be fun - or, as you suggested, going to a summer camp could also be a great experience. And yes, as Poinsettia said, we're sisters. (Btw, it actually happened the other way round - I saw this thread and told Poinsettia XD) Thanks, and (also as Poinsettia said) you've really never come across as pushy - I'm always glad to read your posts and talk to you :)

Oh! I feel silly, then, I should've just put both your names in the title. I hope you do consider it, though, because I just know you'd be great at it - both of you have such a knowledge and love of nature and a want to help your community. And thank you, I really hate to be pushy so please let me know if I ever am! 

(also, I love your location!)

Aw, thanks :) And yeah, my location is always changing, but I'm fairly happy with this one.
