Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I never made

I never made a thread when I arrived at the Chatterbox, so I'm making this as sort of an extremely late introduction thread.

I am twelve years old and my birthday is April 23rd. I have blue eyes, wear glasses, have dark blond hair that doesn't quite reach my shoulders, and am fairly tall. I enjoy singing but am not very good at it. I enjoy dark chocolate and almost anything chocolate. I have 12 ducks named Bill, Annie, Mandy, Bonnie, Dotty, Dan, Rita, Lydia, Molly, Linda, Millie, and Zoe. And yes, Zoe-the-Chatterboxer, I did sort of name her after you. My family has three fish named Socks, Patches, and Kitty. I want a leopard gecko, but I know my parents would never get me one. I love horses and want riding lessons. My favorite horse books are Black Beauty and King of the Wind. My favorite non-horse books are probably the Ranger's Apprentice series.

Haha, I never did either. So allow me to introduce myself. XD I am thirteen and my birthday is August 24. I have brown hair and brown eyes. I love literature and am working on writing a book right now. Fall is my favorite season, and I love to freak my little brother and his friends out with my scary stories *giggle*. As you may or may not already know, I have lots of pets. And I, too, love chocolate. ;D Aaaanyway, (very) late welcome. :D

I never made one either.  I guess this can be the page where we talk about ourselves.  

I turned 13 two months ago.  I have longish brown hair.  I have two baby turtles.  I like soccer and I LOVE the computer.  I am on the computer most of the time, I even watch t.v. on the computer, (sometimes!)  I also play basketball.  Not my favorite sport, but I think I am good at it. I love playing board games, especially games where you have to think, like Scrabble and Apples to Apples and that kind of stuff.  I also play piano and I am homeschooled and have been for 5 years.  I want to be an author when I grow up.  You might not tell this by the way I write on Chatterbox, but on Chatterbox I write just for fun!!    G2G.  Kiss

Oh, Apples to Apples is fun!!  I don't really remember what it is... but last year I played it with my cousins, and I do remember I loved it!!  :) :) :)

I've never played Scrabble though.  *thoughtful face*

I love Apples to Apples! It's the game where you match green to red cards and adjectives to nouns. It's very- creative. You end up calling Fuzz naive and other weird stuff.

Hehe neither did I. :P I'm thirteen and my b-day is the fifteenth of September. I have blue eyes and glasses and the hair that you call dirty blond if you're mean and strawberry blonde if you're nice. :D It's about to the middle of my back. I love music and can play the piano some. I'm trying to get good enough to be able to play for the singing in church. I love to crochet, and I know how to knit, bead, make latch-hook rugs, quilt a little, use one of those small looms with cotton loops, and a nice variety of other crafts. I have a dwarf hamster named Lou that I absolutely adore, and our neighbor's cat practically lives in our yard sometimes. I love animals (almost wish I didn't cause it's so cliche) and horses (ditto). I broke my arm falling off a horse a few years ago. Hmmm... What else? Oh, I have an older brother who is also my best friend, and I'm homeschooled and about to go into tenth grade. My brother and I are math geeks, and my mom is really good at math, so we're in pre-calc right now and plan to take calc 1 at the community college this spring. I love to write and read (hence my being on the Chatterbox :P) and I like to many books to name them all.... Cara, King of the Wind is really good, and I like the Ranger's Apprentice books a lot too. I like little kids and babysit a lot. I would have been babysitting all day today except that my mom and I think I have strep throat. :P:P:P:P I hate strep throat. Such a pain in the neck. Except more of a pain inside the neck. *smiles weakly at her own lame wit* Anywho, I digress. There's all the stuff I should have said when I came on, only for some reason I couldn't figure out how to make a thread and didn't for a couple of weeks, at which point I'd forgotten. :P

Ha, nice to meet you.  :) :) :) :) :)

Wait??  You're going into tenth??  So am I!  Only, I'm fifteen.  That's probably because you have probably been homeschooled your whole life, and are there for ahead of most kids, where as I have only been homeschooled since the beginning of fourth, and am not so good at a lot of subjects.  Plus we un-school a lot.  :)

Actually, I've been homeschooled for only three years, but the deal is that a) my birthday is in September, so I always was the youngest in my class and b) when we started homeschooling, I skipped sixth grade so that my brother and I would be doing the same work. We're planning to condense 10th, 11th, and 12th into two years, though, so that's where the benefits of homeschooling will really kick in.

I never made one either.  And I've been on here for six months.  So, I'll do it here.  :D  Well, I'm 11, as you can see.  My Birthday is Febuary 28.  And I've been homeschooled ever sense a stranger pulled me out of my mom in 1998.  That was before she heard about Midwives.  :( I wish I was born at home like Autumn and Luna.  But now, my moms a midwife, ya!!!!!  

My hair is dirty blond.  you know, with some blond and some brown.  The
brown is mostly under the blond.  I will have brown hair in the
future.  My hair is down to my shoulders.  I have curly sometimes in threads (when greasy) and sometimes in swirly curls.  .    My eyes are dark brown and almond-shaped.  Myhead is oval/circle shaped.  

I like to go on the computer!!!!!!!!  And write.  And I LOVE to read.  I rarely use bookmarks.  I ave thusands.  Well, on second thought, I DO use a bookmark.  my memory.  I also am obsessed with poop.  Htough it isn't my favorite word.  it's my second.  My favorite word is weirdify.  If thats a word.  I have a jpournal that I TRY to keep up with.  I like to play outside in my GIANT back yard.  With trees and creeks and balance beam/fallen tree.  

I knit, crochet, and finger knit.  And finger kniting is NOT like you think it is.  It's more like finger crocheting.  A bunch of slip-knots.  i sew some.  

I get Cricket and Muse magazines.  My sister Autumn gets ASK magazine.  I used to.  

My pets: Casadi, P-J, Quinn (dogs).  Liger (cat).  Joey (hamster).  Alex, Jo, Harper, Lee, Sam, Maze (fish).
