Brooklyn's a procrast
Brooklyn's a procrastinator...
Hi, guys, sorry for disappearing, it's just, ick, life. I have community orchestra, and voice lessons, and acting stuff, and school, and (a little bit of) romance, and just... yep, life going on.
So. Here are some updates on life and writing for anyone(?) who remembers me.
1) I had my fourteenth birthday in September, on the 16th.
2) I told my crush (who is my best guy friend) that I liked him, and he said he liked me back.
3) I'm writing a book! It's called Murder By Any Other Name, and it's an Agatha-Christie-type murder mystery. I might post some of it in BaB.
4) Speaking of which, I started reading Agatha Christie, and I LOVE her works. I've always loved classic murder mysteries, and I think I've found the genre that I want to write.
5) I started watching The Flash! (No spoilers, please, I've only just finished Season 1!) I've also almost finished Season 2 of Supergirl. (AND WINN IS MY FAVORITE CHARACTER BECAUSE HE IS SUCH A NERD AND HE IS ALSO PLAYED BY JEREMY JORDAN, A.K.A. JACK KELLY AND CLYDE BARROW! >squeals< >fangirls until she dies<)
6) I'm going to be introducing some new AEs, as Snyder Fan and Elle have sort of faded away (and are now Force ghosts, who are constantly pestering me), so some new friends will be joining Tina the Miniature Thunderbird CAPTCHA.
And besides that, I've missed y'all. Are some of my old friends still on here? Cockleburr? Bluebird? Claaws? Icy? And what about some of the newbies? Hi, to every new person. I'm Brooklyn Newsie. I've been on here for over a year, and I am a complete fangirl.
Hugs!

BROOKLYNNNNN NEEWWWWWSIIIIEEEEEEEEEE
Happy birthday, congratulations on your crush, (that's awesomeeeeee good for you!) yay, a book!-and new Æs? Fun! Although it's sad about Snyder Fan and Elle.....
I'm still here! Cockleburr, Bluebird, and Icy are still here! I'm not sure about Claaws, though. She was having some...emotional problems and she left a while ago....though I feel like I saw her around a bit recently....

LEAFPOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
How are you, my old friend? I'm so glad to hear from you. I've missed you a whole bunch. What's been going on recently?
Thanks for the info. I'm really just interested in Claaws because I think we live in the same area. XD. Sorry I didn't mention you. I'm just a bit of a spazz in the mornings.

That's completely fine! I don't mind at all, I'm just glad that you're back!
I'm very good! I just had ice cream with caramel and fudge and that's basically the best combination ever so....YEAH! Sugar high! Fun.
That's cool that you and Claaws live in the same area....
Let's see. Scylla came back after a long, unannounced hiatus. Brookeira just did the same. Um....I don't really know. I've not been super active around the CB but there's not much else exciting happening. (At least, not super exciting. There's still plenty of interesting stuff!)

GAH! I forgot to tell you that I have a new Æ. The Seventh Telekinetic Wanderer, or just Seven. Her charrie sheet is somewhere....hang on....*rummages* So as not to clutter this thread up with long, detailed character sheets, here's a link to the most convenient thread with her character sheet on it:

OH! AND I'M GOING TO A LINDSEY STIRLING CONCERT!!!!! I don't know if you like Lindsey Stirling but it's been my dream to go to one of her concerts ever since I started watching her videos. It was pure luck that we're going; one weekend I was checking her website to see if her tour was out of South America yet. After a lot of false alarms, I saw that she had a concert in Boston! I was....very excited, to say the least. A few days later, when my dad told me that he had bought tickets, I squealed. For several minutes. It's a good thing that I saw it when I did, because it was almost sold out! As is, we had to get seats in the balcony. But it's in 35 days, and it's at the Orpheum Theatre in Boston, and I am super excited. As you can probably tell.
Also, it's Friday the 13th! Of October! *SCREEEAAAAAAMMMMMM!!!!!!!!*
Ya know what, I should probably go do something else now. To calm down. Because you might be slightly concerned about my sanity at this point.

@Leafpool
YOU'RE GOING TO A LINDSEY STIRLING CONTEST!? That's so cool. Make sure to tell us all about it!

BROOKLYN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad you're back!
Happy birthday! How does being 14 feel? (I'm not quite there yet, unfortunately. 3 more months D: That's super awesome that your friend likes you back!! I'm so happy for you, it kinda seems like something out of a book! Please post your book on BaB, I'd love to read it. And yay, I've been watching the Flash too, I'm on Season 3. Supergirl is next on my list, I've seen 4 episodes. We can fangirl together when we're finished!
Welcome back!! We've missed you!

@Bluebird
Hey, Bluebird! Good to *see* you. And as soon as I can, I'll begin posting my book.
So yes! I'll catch up on Flash and you can catch up on Supergirl and we can fangirl together.
(October 14, 2017 - 4:17 pm)
Hi! Welcome back. I don't think we've really met, but I'm a Newsies fan too. Jack Kelley forever!

Being busy is different from procrastination, Brooklyn! You were doing meaningful things. That's nothing to be ashamed of. There are kids in my school who get five hours of sleep because they play video games first! XD
(October 13, 2017 - 7:55 pm)
Brooklyn!!!!!!! Ya, well I was just going through a lot of stress, Sophmore year.....yay..... and you know, the other stuff THAT WE APPARENTLY CANT TALK ABOUT that was going on on the CB.
Happy 14!! Do you by any chance dance? Also, have you ever acted at the BBT? Oh, and how did you like the September snow day? (Yes we had a snow day in September) I didnt have power for like, half the day. Which I was bussily sleeping. And clearing out all the dead aspen trees.
Besides that, hows the rest of you life? Also, you should join my Rp on Inkwell. ;)

@Claaws
OHMIGOODNESS!
Yes, I do dance at Alpine Dance (I'm in Theater Dance, and am playing Principal Petrificus in Kindred Spirits)! I've also done The Little Mermaid and The Lion King at BBT. I've done two of their programs, Harry Potter and The Cursed Child (I was Hermione) and I'm in their Broadway Kids one right now. Wouldn't it be cool if we know each other?
The snow day was awful/cool. My first reaction when my dad told me was a bit of a Luke Skywalker. I yelled, "NOOOOOOOO," and lay back down.
(October 14, 2017 - 10:29 am)
oh, I dance at Summit, I'm on Co.Motion, but I did dance at Alpine for a year and a half. Also I was in the Lion King! I was a lioness, what were u?

@Claaws
Aw, that's super cool! I was the really tall, brown-haired ensemble member who always hung out with the actress playing Nala's mom, Seraphina, and the actress who played Ed.
(October 14, 2017 - 7:11 pm)
You weren't by any chance in Billy Elliot, were you?
(October 14, 2017 - 10:51 pm)
@Claaws
No, I wasn't in Billy Elliot. Were you?
(October 15, 2017 - 2:11 pm)
BROOKLYN! Welcome back! *hugs*
Happy birthday! What's it like to be 14? *holds out microphone and camera*
Also, your story sounds great! Please post it on BaB. See you around!
