Update - long time no see (read??), everyone!
Hello all you goofy, lovable lizards! If you don't know me, I'm Sterling and I've been a CBer for MORE THAN FOUR YEARS NOW wow that's crazy. I haven't been around a lot lately, life has been a wild ride recently - I graduated high school and am currently in my freshman year of college, which is An Experience to say the least. I don't know how much I'll be active going forward, but I just wanted to pop in and say hi to everyone - how are ya'll?
Hi, Sterling. It's good to hear from you! Remember to check back for the annual Chatterbox Alum Reunion the week of February 14.
Best wishes for your college experience,
Admin

Hi! I'm Amity, she/her. I guess I'm still a pretty new CBer. I joined in March or April. I've seen you in old threads, though. I hope you have a good year at college :D

Hii, Sterling!!! *optional hugs and cake* Happy late CBversary - whoa, four years, that's impressive! Hope things go well with college and life in general, you've always been an amazing person. It's great to hear from you, and if you want to hang around, that would be great too (though no pressure ofc) :))

STERLING!!!! Good to see/read you again :D yess, hope college is going well!! Uh I could be better---I'm so stressed right now haha like I'm just randomly dropping off of the CB for days now and you can tell that's how stressed I am---that I, who posts like 12 times per day on this site, sometimes goes days without even going to the website now haha uh mini rant sorry also I feel like I just defenestrated grammar; I do that way too often now even though I love grammar. Lots of good things happening too though! Got my club started up, and I'm getting to know my classmates some more, and we actually have more in common than I thought! Anyways, best of luck with everything and you got this with college!! <33 (and with this rushed post, I leave~)

Hi sorry I totally forgot I posted this, but to answer yall's questions -
@Moon Wolf - Absolutely. Stuff like books and movies really affected my perception of what I thought college would be like, but it's actually different in a lot of ways - a lot of stuff about it is totally over-romanticized in media.
@Hex - haha, yes! It's going okay, I'm kinda just drifting right now but it's alright. Except for the fact that I have an essay due Monday morning that I haven't even started yet... *gulp*
@Cloud Bunny - It's tricky to say exactly what college is like, because it can vary a lot depending on the school - for example, my school doesn't have greek life (sororities/fraternities) or big sports teams, so it's a lot chiller than bigger schools that do have those things might be. It's very different from grade school though!
And thank you so much for the well wishes everyone, I really appriciate it <3
