I'm Leaving.
Chatterbox: Down to Earth
I'm Leaving.
I'm Leaving. Forever
Listen, I hope this isn't a huge shock. I was sort of hinting it in some comments earlier to help. Umm... Ugh, I've never written a farewell post before. It's hard.
As in, I'm practically crying.
Let me say, it isn't my choice. My parents decided to get rid of all internet. In other words, not only will I have no access to video games (I only do Multiplayer), it means no CB. Sort of hard to say, I mean, I joined back in July, 2010. Yes, I haven't always been on the CB. I came back on little over a month ago (June 20 something).
And... Most, if not all of you, are new faces for me. I don't know any of you very well. But you've all become like siblings and best friends to me. You're there to give support when I need it. Whether you know it or not, you've helped me dramatically in the past month or so.
Elmodaisy, I've said this countless times before. You are someone I look up to. You might be younger than me, but who cares? Sometimes it are the younger people who have the ability to make the biggest change in the world. You are honest, brave, trustworthy, friendly, supportive. Everything I could have ever asked for in a friend.
Mei, I know we've gotten into some pretty bad arguments. That's my fault, not yours. I need to learn when to keep my mouth shut. To keep my fingers away from the keyboard, you know? Let me just say this, you are an amazing person. You are intelligent, creative, and know how to make a difference. You would be someone who I could see as an amazing person in a leadership role like government. You have a strong voice and no fear, and that's something I will always regret not having.
Gared, I haven't got to know you very well, but you're one of my favorite people on the CB. You have created some of the best role plays and independent stories I have ever seen. Your writing style is fantastic, and there hasn't been a day where I read your posts and haven't laughed. You are one of the people on here I have to say thank you to for having always been able to brighten my day.
Clouded Leopard, I don't really know what to say here. As in, I have so much to say I can't put it all in an understandable paragraph. I look up to you for your friendliness, uniqueness, creativity, and maturity. With a mind like yours, you can go anywhere in the world. You are a fantastic writer and are outstanding at creating strong characters, proven by the personality of the Leopard Brothers. Thank you for being that outgoing, friendly person who was one of the first to greet and welcome me.
St.Owl, I can't forget you. You have such an amazing character that you're simply unforgettable. I haven't seen such amazing writing in forever. You are a natural at creating tension in stories, and creating something I could reread a thousand times over like Harry Potter. Keep up the amazing work, you'll go far in life, no doubt.
Everyone else, I would love to write personal things for the rest of you. But I can't. I can't go on to write anything longer than I've written thus far. You all mean a lot to me. Like I said, each and every one of you are like brothers, sisters, and best friends in my mind. So I've adopted you into my CB family from day one. You all hold unique personalities that I will always remember. You are all creative in one way or another. Whether that is in making people laugh, creating AEs, writing, photography, art, picturings, everything. You. Are. All. Amazing.
Now I must be nearing the end of this post. I never deserved to have such great supporters and friends. Never. And yet you all came and welcomed me like lost cousins! How could that be so? Because you all have hearts of gold. Now I must make my farwell to each and every one of you.
Just remember - goodbye isn't forever.

STOP IT PLEASE. YOU'RE THE THIRD OR FOURTH PERSON TO MAKE ME CRY ON THIS THREAD!
I'll miss you too, Icy. Like I said... this isn't by choice. Never would it be by choice.
BUT IF THERE IS A WILL THERE IS A WAY.
Sorry for caps, I'm upset. I'll try and use my town's wifi, and maybe that'll let me on here from time to time. Just remember, goodbye isn't forever.

Thread title: "I'm leaving. Forever."
Last sentence: "Goodbye isn't forever."
Three cheers for continuity!
Sorry, just my natural and annoying tendency to make a joke out of everything... I'll miss you a lot even though I never really got to know you too well. You seem really outgoing and are always getting involved in everything and just generally trying to make everyone's day better.
You will be missed! Goodbye!

Thank you, HAB! I noticed that sort of... joke part right there after it posted. I'm glad someone else noticed that as well.
(July 27, 2016 - 7:05 pm)
Oh Ash! I'm going to miss you so much! I'm sorry that you have to leave, but we will remember you fondly. I haven't known you for too long, but you are one of my very good CB friends. I hope someday, you will be allowed to come back and say hi. We'll miss you so very much. *Hugs* *Wipes away a tear*
(July 27, 2016 - 5:15 pm)
Thank you, Mirax! I'll miss you all very much as well. Maybe I will stop by and say hi if I get the chance. Sounds like I don't have to leave for a week or so though... so I still have some time here.

*screams*
*faints*
*repeats*
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOYOUCAN'TLEAVEWHYYNOOOOOOOIUGNJNHJBJGNJBFJGNWMINUGJBYRJSNB
YOU HAVE TO CONVINCE YOUR PARENTS> DO SOMETHING!!! SNEAK ON IF YOU MUST!!!!
*latches onto Ashlee's leg and sobs hysterically*
(July 27, 2016 - 5:45 pm)
That last option made me smile, Noveilst. While I wouldn't do that, I might use my town wifi from time to time. So I won't be... gone gone like how Katy left. At least, that is what I hope.
(July 27, 2016 - 7:56 pm)
Oh, Ashlee! You've become such a strong presence on the CB and you'll leave a noticeable gap in the community. I'll miss you a lot. I hope your parents lift the ban sometime soon! Good luck and best wishes go with you.
(July 27, 2016 - 5:58 pm)
Wow, thank you! I sort of get the feeling that not many people notice me on here. Or even worse, don't appreciate me. You know? Because I talk a lot. I might come across as a know-it-all from time to time, which I never mean. Maybe they'll lift it, who knows? For now, I'm on the CB for another week or so. At least, that is what my parents said.
(July 27, 2016 - 7:58 pm)
Okay, great! And I can't believe that you would think people don't appreciate you here—you contribute so much and you're very talented.
(July 27, 2016 - 10:28 pm)
Thanks, Scylla. I just don't give myself much credit for things. I mean, I don't see how people can't be annoyed by my constant posting? I know people say I give good advice and support, and maybe I do. I just don't have much faith in myself.
(July 28, 2016 - 12:16 am)
I am not exaggerating; my mouth was literally open as I read the words "I am leaving. Forever." This IS a huge shock to me. Oh gosh, I'm not crying yet, I am just in too much shock...
Oh Ashlee, Ashlee, Ashlee...I will miss you terribly! I haven't known you for a long time, since you only recently rejoined, but you've been so active, it FEELS like I've known you for a long time.
Gosh, I hate goodbyes.
Ashlee, you've really made a difference in the CB. You've been really inspiring as a person, I really love the ideas you bring. Ashlee...I don't even know what to say. I'm so glad we mean a lot to you, because you do to us.
WAIT!
I was going to end the post there, but then I remembered something. I'm sorry if this sounds stupid, but...your AEs.
Quill! Zeon! I LOVE your AEs!!! I'm going to miss them too!!!! What will we do without them?!
Can we...can we please still keep them in the AE Middle School RP....?
Tears....I'm crying! This is television second time in my life I've cried. Quill, I don't know you very well. You're not as annoying as I thought. But Zeon, you are a really good friend! An awesome gamer! Goodbye...we will never forget you.
Funny, I've always found myself impartial to Quill. You're so smart! I am really going to miss you. Zeon, you are fabulistic as well. Keep up the cool. :) :) :)
(July 27, 2016 - 6:08 pm)
Thank you so much, Owlgirl! I have to admit the same. I haven't really known you long, but it seems like I know you well. As for my AEs... they are more than welcome to stay in the Middle School RP. In fact, I wish they DO stay in it. I never thought people really cared for them, though. Just two more fragments of one's mind talking and chatting and creating drama. Wow.
DRAMA? NOOOO... The only drama is with my having to leave Arwen and my bros!
You are telling me. Zeon has spent at least 3 hours crying in the closet.
Not like you have done any better! And thanks, guys! I'll miss you two as well...
Ah yes, thank you very much. It means a lot! We will miss you two very much.
And might I ask, who are your AEs again? My memory is sort of slipping from me today.
(July 27, 2016 - 8:04 pm)
Mellie, peppy, part cat, crush on Sir Richard, italics
Grace, gummy bear lover, Candy Crush player, bold, and...
SHE TOLD MP SHE LIKED HIM!!!!!
(July 28, 2016 - 9:06 am)
Oh no... oh my gosh...
Oh, Ashlee, I'm going to miss you so much. Even though you've been here years before I ever was, I feel like I got really close to you. I loved your AEs and the creative personalities you developed for them. Please, I'm begging you, drop in sometime to see us again.
I'm going to miss you, Zeon, and Quill.
DX
