Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Hey guys! Some of you may not know me, and others of you might know me well. I've been coming on the CB for many years now, and it has been a huge part of my life. There's been times of inspiration and of laughter, of making new friends and growing as a writer. It's been great, and definitely an influential part of my life. 

Unfortunately though, throughout the years, I've been growing older. (It would be so nice if we could stay young forever!) With this, my time is divided between a variety of activities that I have to balance. Homework has been increasing. I've started dancing four days a week. Family things have come up. I have to take a bunch of tests this year. I'm beginning to look at colleges and looking for scholarships. There's a lot going on and all this has resulted in having less time to come here and hang out and write with y'all. 
So, the time has come for me to bid you all farewell. I've had a wonderful experience here on the CB, and I hope further generations will be able to have the same experience I did. Thank you all for being such a wonderful part of my life! And a special thank you to the Admins for reading all of my comments and helping to make the CB what it is! Everyone here is amazing, creative and inspirational! You all are going to do some awesome things in the world! Don't let anything deter you.
Well, I guess it's goodbye everyone. Y'all will be in my prayers.
Bye! 
 
We'll miss you, Teresa. We think fondly of our Chatterbox Alumni. Do check back once in a while and let us know what you're doing.

Oh, Teresa! I get it! But it's still sad! *hugs*

I got to know you kind of well! You were always really sweet and mature and such an amazing person! I'm really sorry you're leaving, but I understand you had a good reason. Like Admin said, pop in sometimes, okay?

This made me very sad. Cry I was very close to tears.

I am sort of newish so I dont know you as well as some of the others but I am sure you are an awesome person! Recently I have had to part with some of my theater friends who are (already did) graduating. I can't stand it *bursts into tears* why do people have to leave!!!!! This year there are at least two, probably more, awesome people with which I have had the privledge to act with and become friends with who I will have to say goodbye to. I know ths happens nearer to May and June but I only get that much time with them. I can't stand knowing how old my friends are because then I begin to calculate how long until they leave. 

Sorry. I really got to rambling there at the end but I know that a lot of people who read this will feel exactly the same way.  

Waaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

I need hug :'( 

 

Friends moving on is a part of life. You'll always have memories to cherish. There are always new friends to meet . . . and more often than you may think, old friends come back into our lives.

I don't know you as well either, but that's okay! Thanks, and I'm sure you're an awesome person too, Regina! 

Aw, I understand that. It's hard for everyone when people leave and move on. As the admins said, there's always the memories and the impact they have left on your life to remember, and sometimes, you can even keep in touch through email or phone conversations. Just remember to enjoy every moment you have with your friends; there's no one out there like them!

*hugs*

Hey Teresa! You might not remember me, but I'm Will T. It's been great to have you here on CB. Could you pleeeeeeez at least check in every week or so? Just so we'll know what you're doing. If you're too busy. Write this date down somewhere you won't forget it. Valentine's Day 2019. That's the date that some other Chatterboxers agreed to come back after they're in college or married or whatever. Kind of a future cb reunion of sorts. Anyhoo...it's been great to know you Teresa. I'll be praying for you. Goodbye and good luck.

Yes I do remember you, Will T.! You know, I think I might check in every so often. Not every week, but I'll see if I'm able to a couple times throughout the years. Ooh, that's a good idea! Valentine's Day 2019, got it! It's been great to know you too, Will! Thank you so much for the prayers, and you'll be in mine too.

Aw Teresa. Needless to say this makes me sad, but I understand completely. I hope to have the privilege of saying I think I'm the person who came to know you best, and I've LOVED having you here. CB was where we met, got to talking, and found a great friendship. I'm sorry to see you go, but in a bittersweet way, cause I know you're going on to bigger and better things. Your life is changing, expanding, growing, and becoming amazing. You're growing into an amazing young woman whom I'm priviledged to know. Thanks for making the Chatterbox an extroardinary place. It would not have been the same without you. You brought life, happiness, laughs, wisdom, and that special, unique spark each person has that is never the same twice.

So good luck and may God go with you on all your future endeavors. May your life be blessed and full. We love you and we'll miss you! Stay strong.

It makes me sad too, Blonde Heroines Rule. Yes, I think you have the privilege to say that. I loved being here, and I've loved having you and everyone else here too! The CB has definitely played a big role in that. Thank you. I hope that some opportunities will come and that I'll be able to be doing something in the world that I enjoy. Aw thanks. You're welcome, though it wouldn't be the same either without you and everyone else here. We all make it such a unique place, mixing our own thoughts, ideas and personalities to make something beautiful. 

Thank you. I hope that God blesses you too, and I know you're going to do something wonderful in the world. I love y'all and will miss y'all.

Oh, Teresa! I'm so so happy I came on the Chatterbox soon enough to be able to be in RPs with you, and describe you in CBer Personification, and get to see what an incredible person you are! You will be in my prayers too, I'll devote my next rosary to you. Know that you made a positive impact on all of us who had the sweet gift of knowing you. Please do pop in every now and then if you can.

It was very fun to do RPs with you too, Chocabookaholic - especially that Questions RP! Thank you so much for the prayers! Aw, thanks! That's so sweet! You'll be in my prayers too for sure. I'll remember that. Okay, I'll see if I can pop in every once in a while!

Oh Teresa. I literally burst into tears when I read this. You have been a great friend of mine. You have a few things in common to me, reading, dancing, etc. And I will miss you very very dearly. I love you.
