Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Valentine's D

Valentine's Day 2019 Stuff

Yeah. I'll be there, but I was wondering if maybe we should prep for this at all. (It's coming up quick ...) Maybe create a humongous questionaire? (B/C QUESTIONS Y'ALL)

I know that a lot of old CBers will be returning, and not all of us will know each other, though there will be old friends of course. ^^

And then do you think that we should make it a week long celebration, or just the 14th. Not all of us are in the states (Moi, Coco, and maybe Killim? Anybody remember her? Is she still here?), or may be in vastly different time zones, so I feel that there should be enough time for everybody to say hi and read and whatnot. (Though we likely would stick around for a minute anyways, but why not make it officialish?)

Should someone be designated to make the post, so that we don't have multiple threads? Or should we just hang the consequences, and visit all the threads?

So yea. 

If there's a lot of people in favor of a questionaire, then I could add them all to this post as people send in suggestibles and whatnot. :)

Please send in all your advice!

My list of ideas thus far for questions to answer, all would be as you want to fill out, none would be required other than names. :)

Introduction, freelance

Description of how you think you would look on the CB

AE descriptions

Captcha descriptions

How 2018 went

How life in general has been

Favorite stuff

Skills

NaNoWriMo brags

etc. Again, further ideas would be loved on. :3

Extra Idea:

Maybe some kind of game played across the site? Maybe a scavenger hunt of some sort? 

 

Or am I getting too excited too soon? XP

@Admins, your ideas are appreciated too, I know you guys have got a busy schedule too, so your reccommendations on how far all of this should go would be wonderful.  

I'm getting excited, too, Cho! The reunion date was so far away and now it's so close. I think allowing a week is good. February 14 is on a Thursday, so you all should probably stick to that for the start, then keep checking in for a week or more after that. One thread where people answer items from your suggested questionnaire as they wish sounds like a good idea to me. I'm eager to learn what CB alums are doing these days, what they're studying or how they spend their days. Are you still in Japan? Others may have good ideas for additional threads. Many of you are much more creative than I am. I do think it's a good idea to give it some advance thought.

Whooooaaaahhhhhhhh there are so many older CBers here I don’t even know who to say hi to! I’m so excited for Valentines Day and I can’t wait to see everyone there!!! I wish I could come back for real and join an rp or something but... high school happened. Why does high school always happen? It gets in the way of reading too. I had to write three pages today, but instead I’m doing this. Maybe I’ll try over break, or just posting on the weekends. Kestrel and I have started a book which we might need feedback on, so we might ask you all for help someday. I need to go keep writing, but it’s good to see what’s going on and catch up. See you guys!

Heyyyyy! How's life been, Riddler? Also, yes: High School takes up too much time. Meh to it.

I suppose I could do one more. Maybe the chat thread or the book recommendation? I don’t have a preference.

If you do the book recommendation thread, I'll take the chat.

Hey, Cho! It's me, Brooklyn Newsie! I don't know if you remember, but we used to be really great friends on here! Anyway, just wanted to pop by and say, "WOW!! I MISS YOU!" and literally any other of my old friends (plus say hi to some potential new buds)

So, heey! I'm Brooklyn Newsie, and I am very much obsessed with Broadway musicals, especially Newsies. I would add more, but it changes literally every week, so that might be pointless. I'm 15, Hufflepuff, INFP, really awkward, and yup. 

So, funny story. Cho and I both had AEs, and they both were pretty much in LOVE with each other. Her's was named Pinkie PIEper and mine was called Snyder Fan. Pinkie PIEper was this nice, sweet, friendly AE and Snyder Fan was a psychopath. Their ship name was Snyper, which just about says it all.

I also used to have another name Ellie! She was a complete girly-girl, and loved the musical Wicked.

My CAPTCHA was a mini thunderbird named Tina, and i also had these random nifflers named after classical composers that followed me around wherever I went.

2018 was SO awful to start, but then it got better!

Life's been crazy. I'm in one play and a musical, I have WAAAAAAAAY too much homework, I don't have nearly enough sleep, and I'm losing my mind. Oh yes! And also, I got a puppy! His name is Ramsey, but I call him Ramses the Great.

I love Broadway musicals! Newsies, Tuck Everlasting, Dear Evan Hansen, Anastasia, Bandstand, Bonnie & Clyde, Something Rotten, and literally 5 billion more. I also like to draw and paint, to write, and to act and sing and dance.

Well, that's me! It's nice to see some of my old friends again, and I can't wait to make some new ones!!!

Brooklyn!! *tackles* *hugs* Of course I remember you!! Snyper was da bomb. *continues to have fun shipping them*

What kind of a dog is Ramsey? Also, my favorite musical at the moment is My Fair Lady. I could have danced all night ... (I will shut up now ...) Also, 'eyyy, you're the same personality type as Coco! And I'm just one removed, being an INFJ. :3

It's so great to see you again!

CHO!!! oh my gosh, it's so good to see you! Snyper's going to have to have a reunion sometime. My Fair Lady is FANTASTIC!! Also, Laura Benanti is in it right now and just... wow. She's so wow. Ramsey is a West Highland Terrier! He's really cute and I love him. How are you?

Lol, I haven't heard any of the recent Broadway music. Only the ones with Julie Andrews and Audrey Hepburn. (Both with Rex Harrison, ahaha) 

Awww, Westies are cute! Does he ever listen to commands? Or have you not gotten to that stage yet? I'll have to tell Coco, as Westies are where her name comes from. ;)

I'm doing so so. Depends on the day. Today I'm doing pretty good, I shouldn't complain about life. ^^ 

I'm so happy to see/hear from you again!!
