Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I wasn't sure

I wasn't sure where to put this one either...  It's sort about the world around you, so I guess it works here.  Does anybuggy have any pen pals?  I write to a girl named Viviana who lives in Columbia.  It takes a really long time to write to her, not only because she lives really far away, but also, our letters need to be translated through a translator.  She's really fun!  She has a parakeet just like me, and his name is Oliver.  She has the same favorite animals as me and everything!  It's amazing how many similarities we have!

back to the Down to Earth

YAY!:) Someone else has a pen pal!!!!:) I've been writing to a 12-year-old girl named Hannah for a couple months, and I LOVE it!!!!:):):) She lives in UK, so I know what you mean about letters taking a little while to arrive, but we don't need a translator. Also, we e-mail each other about once every one or two days. She has a cute kitten with a black nose just like my kitten Suki, and we love to send pictures of each other and things around us. We love to talk about EVERYTHING!!!!!:):):) Pen pals are AWESOME!!!!:):):)

Does she like using smiley faces, too? :):):)  You should tell her about the Chatterbox!  :):):):)  I don't know if Viviana has a computer, so of course I can't e-mail her.  We like to talk about what the weather is like; since she lives in the southern hemisphere, it's cold in the summer and hot in the winter!  It's really funny!

Yes, she really does like to use smiley faces too!:):):) I haven't told her about Cricket Chatterbox yet, but now that you've mentioned it, I think that I will. It would be so cool!:):):) Thanks!:):):)

I have an e-pal who used to be a good friend who moved to California. I've always wanted a pen-pal, like an actual pen-pal I've never met before. Paige, how did you start writing to your pen-pal? Does anybody out there know a safe pen-pal program?
