Hi everyone! Ivy

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Hi everyone! Ivy

Hi everyone! Ivy here.

I haven't been on here much lately, mostly due too dance, school, and moving.  When I have popped in, I've noticed so many new people, or at least people I don't recognize. I would love to get to know you all, so please come introduce youselves! (Or if your an oldie, update me on how you are!)

About me:  I've been coming on the CB for about 4 1/2 years now I think, although like I said, I haven't been on much lately.  I'm a fangirl, dancer, reader, writer, cat lover, and many other things.  I'm obsessed with Sherlock, Merlin, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Anne of Green Gables, Star Wars, and Jane Austen, just to name a few. I dance ballet, jazz and contemporary. I mostly do ballet, and in a couple weeks I will be leaving for ABT's summer intensive! I'm super excited because I went last year and had a ton of fun, and this year I am staying in the dorms.                                                                                            I have been homeschooled my entire life, and for high school, I started doing online school. I have really liked it and am planning on doing that again next year.  

That's all I can think of about me right now. Now come and tell me about yourselves!

Ivyyy! I've missed you so much!

Nothing much has been going on with me lately. Just kidding, I've been absolutely SWAMPED. I'm working on yet another novel and I probably won't finish it (I have this bad habit where I'll start to write a story and then completely forget about it two days later). I'm also doing a bunch of stuff this summer - drama/theatre camp, voice lessons, photography clas, horseback riding, swimming, surfing, etc. - but I'll still make time for the CB, of course.

Yep, that's pretty much it. It's so great to have you back! {:

Hi Ivy!

I'm Booksy, and I'm fairly new. I joined in March. I love to read, write, and act. I'm a Shakespeare nerd, a grammar freak, and extremely old-fashioned. My favorite genres are classics, historical fiction, and realistic fiction. Some of my favorite books are Anne of Green Gables, Pride and Predjudice, Moon Over Manifest, and The Mother Daughter Book Club. I'm a little shy, but I love making new friends! That's... Pretty much it. Welcome back!

Hi Booksy! I love Anne of Green Gables, Pride and Prejudice, and the Mother Daughter book club too! Did you hear that there is goingto be one more Mother Daughter Book Club?! I'll have to check out Moon Over Manifest, which I haven't read.

Hey, Ivy! Welcome back! 

I'm Over the Rainbow, an aspiring Broadway triple threat who does not lok like Dorothy. I joined in February? March? Something like that. Not much to say about me, although you should know, as Abigail said, that there is a bit of tension right now due to problems with AEs and impersonation.

Toto says ttoe. Must have hit the 't' key twice.

Ivy! Hey, it's wonderful to see you again! Wow, dance sounds like so much fun, and you do so much of it! Have fun with the ABT intensive! It's great that you're able to homeschool through high school - if you're allowed to say, what curriculum do you use online? 

I'm doing pretty well - I've started karate and I'm going to test for my blue belt this summer. I'm exploring writing and I'm reading too much for my own good (not that I'll be stopping anytime soon! ). I'm diving into my interests of chess, art, law, psychology, and many, many other things now that summer is here. I'm volunteering at the local library for the kids' summer programs, and am loving it. I'm still homeschooled and will be a freshman when school starts - we're still looking for a curriculum plan right now (in my opinion, it's a bit late, but anywho). I'm trying to keep my two years of French that I learned enthusiastically. Overall, I'm doing great, and I'm really happy to see you again! (Please forgive all of the typos - my computer doesn't do spellcheck on CB and I'm in a rush.) 

 

Admin does a quick proof for spelling. May miss some.

Hey True!!! It's great to see you too! I'm glad to hear that you're doing well.

i am using Laurel Springs for online high school and I absolutely love it! It is great because it is all accredited for collage and was actually recommend by several collars my mom contacted. I recently found you that a lot of actors and actresses such as Josh Hutcherso , Elijah Wood and many others have used it!

Hey Ivy! I'm Indigo. I haven't been on the CB nearly as long as you, I'm just nearing my aniversary of coming on now. I like drawing, biking, ice skating, writing poems and stories, debating, blogging, laughing, and hanging with friends. (Although currently I've been having problems with my at-school friends... )

Anyway, welcome back to the CB!

Hey, Ivy! Nice to see you again. I don't think I've been up to much since you left. When did you depart, anyway? If you haven't already signed up, there's a new ski lodge. Glad you're back!
