Random Thoughts/Things?

I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

Hiii!

I'm Tsuki! (Not my real name of course) and I'm 13 as well!  I've been here (CB) for four months now, and been getting Cricket for just over a year, so you could say I'm pretty new.  Some of the others have been here for awhile, I think Red Starlight has been here for six years. 

I LOVE READING!!!!!  A few years ago I'd read EVERY SECOND of EVERY DAY for ETERNITYYY but now I have NO access to interesting new books and I'm saaaaaad... I LOVE Lord of the Rings!  I've read the Hobbit and the Fellowship.  Who's your favorite character?  Mine's Legolas... but, admittedly, that's because of movie him.  I'd seen the Hobbit movies before I read the Fellowship.. meaning I saw how AMAZINGLY HOT his movie self looked before reading his personality.  Harry Potter is awesome, what house are you in? 

I also love drawing, writing, cats, WOLVES! (me and my best friends roleplay as wolves) and wow, you're into archery?  That's so cool!

Have any questions or just wanna chat, let me know!  I'm glad you're joining, this is just a wonderful place<3

Read you around!

Oh man, I LOVE your enthusiasm! I also love to read, draw and write, and I think cats and wolves are awesome. What do you think of dogs? I also have a sister. I started getting Cricket in March 2021, and I joined the CB soon after. Have you read The Hunger Games? It's one of my favorite series. Nice to meet you, Adelaide. If you're new to the CB, welcome! Here's the link to the New Ultimate Guide: www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/443573 If you're not new, still nice to meet you, 'cuz I haven't seen you around. ANYWAY, byeeee!

Hi! Welcome to CB Adelaide/ girl of books! I'm 12 years old and also absolutely LOVE reading!! My favorites are Wings of fire, The hunger games, warriors, and the penderwicks ( lots of others too but I can't go on forever! ) I have read Harry Potter and enjoyed it. I've also watched the His dark materials show but I haven't read the books which I'm embarrassed to say because I almost always read the books first but I did really love it so I should go back and read them. Wolves are my absolute favorite animal!!! I love them SO much. My other favorite animals are dogs, red pandas cats, and chickens. I have a dog and two cats. I love to draw and write as well and I play piano. I also got a bow and arrow and practiced archery almost every day last summer but I haven't used it since then so I might be kinda rusty. I am unschooled ( it's a lot like homeschooling but a little less consistent ) also it's so cool your teacher is from Ireland!! I've never been to Ireland but it sounds pretty awesome. Anyway I hope you enjoy cricket and the CB!!

I love writting and drawing too! Archery is fun, but i'm not that good at it. I play violn, but sometimes It's really frustrating. I have two cats, one is named Whiskers and the other is named Ziggy, named after David Bowie.

Hey everyone!

Not too much to say today, just wondering how everyone's doing. I'm doing pretty good. Some sad things have happened in my life lately, but I'm doing ok. 

I got to get out my guinea pig 2022 calender! THEY ARE SO CUTE. My own guinea pigs I had to leave with my grandma when we moved, but they are happy with her. I do miss them so I love the calender.

Anyways, please tell me how you're doing!

I love guinea pigs. At school the first graders have guinea pigs as a class pet. There names are Figg and Wally. When I was in first grade our class put was a bunny named Domino but he died. Our school has a lot of class pets. The kindergarteners have a frog, the 1st graders have a guinea pig, and the Jounier Kindergarten used to have a pig, but it died. My school has a barn with Chickens, roosters, Horses, Goats, ducks, and Sheep. There used to be three turkeys, but they all died :(

Would anyone be interested in a game show roleplay? Such as Jeopardy! or Family Feud? I think Family Feud could be particularly fun (we could poll CBers).

I'm tired. I spent 13 hours away from home at school, at an appointment, shopping,... and I have to finish writing an essay tonight. Also, I get to look forward to two essay tests in the next two consecutive days for two different classes. I'm tired of essay tests. I'm tired. :|

But at least it means less homework to do later...

AAAH MATH IS TERRIBLE!

@Jaybells good luck on your schooling!

@Phoenix Tears that sounds like a good idea! How do you think the roleplay would work?

Agreed. Math is horrible.

I would be the host, and we could ask people to fill out a form if they want to be a contestant. I would select a few people, and there would be a small amount of questions (4?). You would get a point for every question you got right first, and then maybe we could ask some CBers to make prizes for the winner and second-place finisher? Such as art, short stories, or poems? 

If we did Jeopardy!, the questions would be more knowledge-oriented (geography, pop-culture, etc.) But if we did Family Feud...we could ask the CBers who aren't participating as contestants to answer the questions in a separate thread, which could be really fun. 

I'd have to think a little more about the logistics of how everything would work, but I just wanted to see if people would be interested in something like that.
