Hey guys! I'm

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Hey guys! I'm

Hey guys! I'm not really staying for long, but I wanted to check in and say hi.

I'm an old Chatterboxer- I've been here since the beginning of 2012. It's been six years, wow. So I'm an adult now, technically, but I don't feel that way.

Thanks so much for everything, Cricket! You've helped me become a much better writer, reader, and person. 

Right now I'm in college studying computer sciences. I also work as a math teacher for all grades from elementary school to calculus. I also spend my freetime making video games, translating (Japanese to English, usually novels or manga), and writing! I'm trying to write a book to publish right now. Fingers crossed!

I recognize a lot of you, but there are also lots of new faces here. 

I hope the CB continues to be as fun and wonderful a place as I remember it! 

 

It's good to hear from you, Ruby! We're pleased to hear that you're involved with things you love to do and that Cricket helped you get there.

Whoa, hi Ruby! Nice to see you well and good! 

Jeez, you're doing some crazy cool stuff. Studying computer science? That's amazing, and actually the major I want to get into. Just as a curiosity, why did you choose that?

Being a math teacher sounds cool but a little bit stressful. I wouldn't like to teach little kids, but I bet it's a pretty nice learning experience! 

We've had our arguments now and then, but CB is the same old CB!

Oh my gosh, that's so cool, Ruby! How is teaching? And computer science- wow! That's amazing. It's so good to hear from you and I'm glad you're doing so well! Good luck with your book! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Hello! I think I remember you from the last time you dropped in.

Hello, Ruby. It is a pleasure to meet you.

That's my AE Sea Glass. I think she's here because she likes remembrance. 

It's true. Time must always pass, but things need not always be forgotten, though they may change.

That's nice... Oops, homework calls. It was nice to see you again!

Hello! You may remember me or maybe not, but I certainly remember you! It’s cool that you enjoy translating from Japanese to English; I’ve recently been obsessed with learning languages. I’m not quite sure what else to say, but I hope you are well and thanks for checking in!

Hi Ruby! So good to see you again, as you were one of the first CBers I ever met on here. That is definitely a lot of cool things you're doing, haha. Much more than I am. Anyways, just glad you stopped to check in!

Hey, Ruby! I'm not certain you remember me, but hello! I've seen your name while scrolling through some old threads. Nice to see you back! What's your book about? Are you a part of NaNoWriMo?

Hey! I remember you! You were very active on the poetry contest thread for a while.

Welcome back! How have you been? My your life sounds so interesting! It makes me wonder where we'll all end up as adults. I hope people will come back to cricket now and then to inspire others as you just did! :D

Anyway, enough weird rambling. Hello! It's great to see you agian! Best of luck to your novel!

Wow, since 2012. That's a long time, Ruby.

Soooo.... hi. I'm Aspen, a sort of new CBette. I've been here since March of 2016, though first I was posting under the name of Hope S, and then Shade.

But, anyway, I'm really glad you could drop by, and I'm glad to meet you!! :)

Hey, Ruby, nice to meet you! I've only been on the Chatterbox for a little over a year, so I won't know you, but it's awesome to meet you anyway. Good luck on your book being published, by the way. I hope to here all about it. Maybe even read it! Welcome back, anyway.
