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.

Thank you so much! And yes, I have heard of that date and will surely come back to visit then. And of course, I'll try my best to stop by every so often as the opportunity reveals itself. Thank you again, Shadow Dragon!

*Sobbing from everyone* 

Ashlee, NO!!!! You can't leave!!! *Continues to sob* You, Zeon, Quill, you're part of our huge CB family. YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME!!!! I, I, just can't bear it. . .

I'm sorry for that rant, I know this is not your choice, but always know that we're here for you ok? We'll never forget you, and you'll always be my "Photography idol." *Sniff* Although we haven't known each other that well, I know that I'll always remember you. Please, if you ever get the chance to go on another computer for just a few seconds, check on us, and we'll be waiting for you. Also, please remember to come back on Feb 14th 2019!!!

Puck:

Good luck Zeon. We'll miss your gaming personality. And Quill, *A tear slips out of Puck's eye* take care of yourself, ok? Without you, the CB will never be the same again; you were alway there to make it a better place for all AE's, and I thank you for that. I'll always remember you. And, I will miss "Q4." 

Ariel:

Zeon, dude, I know we haven't "officially" been bros, but  thanks for being here on the CB, and for helping me to know how to deal with an annoying Sis. sometimes. You might think that you haven't done much, but really you have done ALOT. We'll miss you. And Quill, good luck to you as well.

Puck and Ariel:

We'll always remember you as Q&Z, the perfect twin duo. 

Me: And I'll always remember you Ashlee.

Thank you so much, Puck and Ariel. You two are the second pair of perfect twins. We will go by Q&Z in remembrance of you two. I'll miss you, Puck, and the crazy fun personality you bring to the CB. And... *looks away with tears forming* I'll... I'll miss Q4, too.

Waaaaaahhhhh! Tears are literally about to fill my eyes! I'm gonna miss you even more now, Ashlee! I don't even mind that I'm not on the list of compliments! Your thread touched me so very deeply! And for never having written a Farwell thread before, you did an absolutely amazing job. Here. Take this as my last goodbye. you will be forever missed and forever remembered in the Chatterbox. Maybe some day, when you're all grown up, you can come and visit us again. We won't forget you.

Thank you so much, Leeli! That means a lot to me, thank you. I... I might have a good announcement. Maybe, I have to confirm it first. So thank you very much. Also I love that picture!

I'm so sorry to hear that, Ashlee.

Even though I only know you through the photography and art posting thread, I've seen your name in lots of other threads and was hoping to know you better. I just want you to know that you were a great CBer, and we'll all miss you.

P.S. I love your photos by the way. You really have a great eye for things.

Thank you so much, Lap! Like you said, I've only got to know you through those two threads. If I return someday, maybe I can get to know you better. I have to say, you have fantastic skills in both art and photography. Keep practicing with it, and you will become a master of the subjects. I'll miss you all, too.

Ashlee! You made me come back... for a post.

I'm going to miss you so much! You are such an incredible person! I didn't get to know you well, but I feel like I know you better than I know a lot of the people on here.

Goodbye, again.

Glad to have you back, S.E, even if it is only for a post. Thank you so much! I'll miss you as well. It is a shame I never got to really know you, but alas, life takes me elsewhere. Again, thank you for everything.

And goodbye, once again. Glad to know you care.
