I think it's simple enough. We know each other on the cbox, but who are we really? Let's see. I'm a 19 year old going on 20, that dropped out of a program that got me my diploma and my associates all at the same time about 4 months ago because I got really sick. I work a lot, and I enjoy what I do. I moderate on two forums, and work hard at doing so. I have very little me time, But I'm an avid reader and music listener. I have 8 cats, and I'm pretty sure I have the inability to ever get married. \o/ Someone go next.

Aw. I'm sure you'll find someone, Shaggy ^^ I'm sixteen, my birthday being March 4th- which is kinda funny 'cause my mom's is March 1st~ I am a gal, yes, so x: I love to read/write/draw/listen to music... and it's hard to find me not doing one of those things. I love school {just not the fellow students}, and I plan on majoring in history when I go to college. Umm. I love telling stories of things that have happened to me. I ramble a lot when telling them x3 I was sick for about four-five years before they found out my body can't digest fat, and that antibiotics like, kill my system. I was out of school for two and a half months last year because I was really sick. I ended up getting worse grades than I normally would have, yet I still have a higher GPA than most kids at my school 'cause I got into the tech school o.o Which is sad x: I am a firm believer that if the teachers stopped and spent more time with each student and found out how they learn, they would learn so much more and be able to retain it. I tutor my friends, so. If you met me in real life you would probably not think I would be the same person I normally dress in all black when I go to school, and give glares of death at anyone who gets too close. I don't like people in my space, and the whole black attire thing is a protest against the school for saying we can't wear all black all the time -nods- That, and black is the color of clothing that retains the most heat. I can get cold in 100 {or 37.7 to those outside of the US} degree weather, so I like heat, especially in the winter when temps here like to get below zero {or below -17.77} soo... yeah. I love the winter, don't love being freezing all the time even in the dead of summer -poofs-

First off, Shaggy you'll definitely find someone C: Have faith, ne? Also, 8 cats?! @_@ THAT MUST BE HECTIC.
And Essy, I totally know what you mean about winter *Q* I love the snow and winter in general, but, I hate being cold ;X; So I bundle up in a puffy jacket and call it a day xD
RIGHTO. So.
Hiya'~ I'm new here, obviously. I've been lurking on the cbox for a while as I worked hard on my application to join this site. I've actually had my eye on it for a while, but was always too intimidated to join because I've never really been a part of such a large site - not to mention the intermediate-advanced posts. But I'm thrilled that I did, as I can see that I'm going to love it here. C:
I'm a girl, not shocking, I know. And I'm eighteen years old, about to start on my second semester of community college (*cough*college for babies*cough). I've got two cats, each named after Japanese guitarists (Keeto, Tora), and three dogs. I had a ferret (also named after a guitarist: Akito), but had to sell him. D8> I miss that little guy.
I'm wildly in love with my girlfriend, our one year anniversary is slowly approaching. On the 22nd on this month. She's everything to me and I'd do anything to make her smile.
I share in common with Shaggy and Essy, that I too was very sick at one time. When I was 12 I was diagnosed with cancer (it was something called a granulosa cell tumor) and had four courses of chemo to get rid of it. It's all gone now, but I'm still a super paranoid freak about my health Every little ache and pain scares the bejesus outta me.
And finally, I'm very much a kid at heart C: I love old Disney animated films and old cartoon series. Perhaps even more than I enjoy "grown-up" films. xD

Well hello everyone....... I'm Mysti. I am 15 and will turn 16 in less than a month. I am the youngest of three.... I have a brother thats 26 and sister thats 32. I'm a pretty boring person.... But here it goes. I have dance alll my life my sister started when she was three then my brother danced too. Dance is like my life... though I don't always agree with my teacher . I mostly do Broadway style dance. I always play the charries that are like maternal and well covered with clothes (a nun, Mary Poppins, Ursala) while my friends aren't so covered. (Roxxi Heart, Elle Woods) i also get to choreograph a class this year! Which really excites me.... Anyways... I also do a whole bunch of Theater stuff. I am in all the schools musicals and plays. I feel most comfortable on the stage. Though I learned I am deathly afraid of power tools... Any ways this last play I was only on stage crew... And I totally sucked... BAD at that. But besides plays and musicals I also do NFL. NOT FOOTBALL! It is another drama thing. I love forensics. It is were you compete with skits and stuff it is really fun. I am also really involved in FFA. There I show animals and do stuff like that. I hate the people in the group though... But I show South African Boer Goats. They are meat goats and they are judged on how much meat they have and such. I also show Pembroke Welsh Corgi's. They are the cutest dogs.. I will breed them too, once I start showing Nessa AKC. One other thing yu muct know about me is that.... I am a HUGE Wicked fan. Really if you don't know what I am talking about I might smite you. And if you don't believe my Wicked Fanness I named my Dogs after Charries and some of my goats... One is named Wicked actually. Something Tragic in my life.... Is my mom died of Breast Cancer when I was 11. But I can joke about it. She had always been sick when I was alive so it wasn't that bad. But now I am a big supporter of Breast cancer awareness . I was in Chicago during October (Breast Cancer Awareness Month) I was mesmerized by what they had done with the city. Well, besides all that. I love to write and I am pretty geeky. I do some other stuff to but I can't remember them right now sooooo, Ya My life id pretty boring.

Well...hey I'm Elisabeth (with an S and not a Z), I'm also 15...but I won't be turning sixteen until January. I am the second youngest out of 9. Only 2 of those siblings are actually full-blood related, the rest are just half siblings. Only two live with me and my parents, and that is the two fully related siblings. I don't really do much...though I hope to do more in the coming years. In school I'm involved in Show Choir , theatre/drama, A+ tutoring, and homework and such like that. The Show Choir i'm going into is an all-girls show choir, and they usually take first in their division at competitions so I'm looking forward to that I try out for every play and musical (though I don't ever get a part). I started trying out for them...2 years ago. Mysti made me try out and I actually got a part that time, sooooo I kept trying out ever since and haven't really gotten any roles since then. But my hopes are up for this coming year ;D . I'm in NFL (not football), same as Mysti. I absolutely love it. It takes up most of my time, between finding a piece to do and cutting it to fit time, writing the intros, and practicing/getting the characters right/choregraphing it. Me and Mysti have a duo thing we do together every year, and this coming year's duo will be AMAZZZIINGGG! ;D I'm in A+ tutoring, which is just where you go to a club or the plays or something like that for the little kids (well kids not in highschool), and you help the teacher who's doing it and you get A+ hours which go towards a select few colleges. I A+ pretty much every day after school during the school year, and if I'm not A+-ing I usually have something else to do. That's what my usual school year is like, though I do have homework (which I usually don't do until last minute but still get good grades on them ). I'm currently taking both piano and voice lessons from an older lady that lives in my town. She's an amazing teacher, and a lot better than the old teacher I had. I really enjoy playing the piano and singing (though I'm not very good at either). I've been playing piano/taking lessons on and off since I was five, but from the time I was six till I was about eleven/twelve I didn't practice or anything because my family didn't have enough money to get me lessons, so I didn't really progress on any of that. I've been taking singing lessons since...2 months ago . I've been in choir for 1 1/2 years. (joined 2nd semester one year ago). I enjoy doing both of those things and try my best to do them well. I'm going to join the 4-h we have in my community (hopefully) in September (also with Mysti). I'll probably do Photography and theatre, just b/c I'm good at those things. The summer after next summer I'm going to try to be fair queen (I live in a small, hick town fyi). Though I'm not sure I'll win, but it's just another thing to put on a college application. I try to be an over-achiever though I usually can't focus enough to actually accomplish most things I set out to do. I usually try to get all A's , though I'm proud to say I ended the year with only one B+ (which was in math)...the rest were A's. I like to do well in anything I set out to do. I try to impress people, whether I know them or not. I'v been role-playing since the begining of June this year. Mysti talked me into joining this site, and so now I'm kind of hooked on it. I have 3 charries (Selah, Melany, and Sophia). I love them to death and am really happy I made them the way I did. Some of my hobbies are: writing-when I was seven a short-story I wrote was put in my towns newspaper and I've loved to write ever since...though lately my muse has been kind-of dead. Reading-I'm in an honors (AP) language class at my school Drawing-something I drew last summer (in a drawing class) was in an art gallery...and I'm kind of proud of that drawing. I usually draw strange things that just float into my head...but sometimes my drawing have purpose Music-anything music related I like...usually. If you can't find me I'm almost always in my room listening to music, or trying to write a song (which I never actually finish). I want to learn to play the: violin, fiddle, flute, trumpet, tenor saxophone, drums, guitar (any), tuba, etc. I currently can play: piano, voice ( ), and alto saxophone. (ohhh! I forgot to mention I was in band for 3 years, until I started HS, then I didn't have time in my schedule to fit it in along with everything else...but I still occassionally play my saxophone). Ummm....I think that's it....yup....if there's anything else I just forgot to mention it YAY. Okay....well....ya....bye. ~Elisabeth

So~ My name is Rachel, and if you ever spell it with an a before the e, I may have to kill you Just kidding. I'm fifteen years old, and I'll be sixteen in March. I have four characters, Alchemy (my first), and then Macey, Jamie, and Ebony, and all of their names obviously end with an e sound. I love to sing. Absolutely love it. I take voice lessons, and I'm in show choir with Elisabeth. I've made an honor choir two years in a row, each time I auditioned, and hopefully I'll make it next year. Opera is my favorite thing to sing, that and Broadway, and I sing randomly all the time, and basically to anything. As well as singing, I like to act, even though I'm not very good. I've been in three musicals, one, my second, where I got a major part, Iago in Aladdin Jr., my first where I was chorus, and the latest, where I was a minor character who had three lines...I got a name though I haven't auditioned for any plays, though I may this year, if my friends make me, that and they want me to do Forensics with them, which is basically competitive acting/theatre. I hate to dance, I'm horrible at it, but I'm getting a little better, I have to, because like I said, I'm going to be in a very good winning show choir this coming year. So, I also like to write, but my muse has been completely dead lately, but I wasn't amazing to begin with. I did write a short story for my honors language arts class, a ten page modern spin on the Little Mermaid, and got a really good grade on it though. I'd have to say that I like first person best, though, which is what I wrote that story in. I'm a total city girl, well, as city as I can be in a very rural town. I've been overseas, England and Ireland, and have been to both coasts, and have seen Broadway shows in New York. I love the ocean, and although the Atlantic is cool, I'd have to say the Pacific is my favorite. I don't really do much outside of school besides voice and piano lessons, but although I procrastinate sometimes, I always get good grades. I got all As, with just one A- in my honors geometry class, my least favorite subject. Oh, Elisabeth owes me about one hundred pencils from sixth grade, and the Little Mermaid is my absolute favorite movie and musical, make fun of it and you will die I'm obsessed with it! ~Rachel

My Turn.
My online name is Trist or some such variant. I am 18, male (though a lot of people seem to think otherwise =D) I was born and have lived all my life in Middlesbrough in the North East of England.
I've just finished college, which in England is not as high a level as American college. And if i get the results I want I'll be going to the local university (voted university of the year, ho ho ho). I'm working part time in a pizza hut which is.. interesting. Though we get a lot of unkind people in and I sometimes wish I didn't work for an internationally know company so I could get away with giving a little evil back.
In my free time I'm a gamer, and own an X-box 360, a Wii (shh) and a PC. I play a great many games on Steam, like Team fortress 2, which is awesome. I mainly play first person shooters, role playing games and real time strategies. I probably spend too much time gaming but meh.
When i'm not gaming or working or sleeping (which i also love) I'm probably out with friends... gaming or being lazy =D I don't go out drinking much, most of my friends aren't old enough/don't have ID, and anyway, i'm not much of a drinker. (legal age is 18 here of course =D)
I come from quite a big family, I have no siblings but 9 aunts and uncles, 13 cousins and a huge extended family from around the North East, i recently met some who I hadn't seen for about 8 years. My family is great and I could go on forever about them, like their jobs and such. Be prepared for a long rant if you get me talking on the subject =D.
Um... people seem to be posting health problems... Most of mine were when I was really young. I had meningitis when I was a baby, then when on holiday as a toddler i stood on something poisonous... as far as I know i'm ok now though =D.
I have no pets, though i used to have a hamster like Sarah conner from Terminator 2, doing pull ups on the bars... she escaped and is presumably now fighting robot hamsters in the future or something.
Erm... I can't think of much else at the moment... so, yeah. That's me.

*waves* Hi, I'm Mone and I figured that I should introduce myself since I have been reading this since it was first posted. I've just been busying and feeling a bit meh lately. But, anyways, onto my intro....
I'm currently 19, but I will be 20 August 5. Just one more year until I can drink! *does happy dance* But I'm a college student with a major in computer science, specializing in web programming and development. I'm in my third year at college, though I have been technically junior (3rd year) status since last year. I managed to get college credit while I was still in high school, which helped out a lot and allowed me to not worry about some harder classes like Calculus during my college years. Calculus and me are not homies. But, since my major is declared as one of the hardest majors of my entire college, I can get pretty busy with my schoolwork, especially since I am a huge procrastinator. I've gotten good at waiting until the last minute to do homework and somehow pulling off a decent grade: A to B range. I'm not very involved at school since I'm usually too busy with homework and work and my church. But I don't mind too much.
Out of school, I usually work or volunteer with my church. I work at a local insurance life company in their business technology department. In the most simplest terms, I help build and manage my company's websites. People are cool, though I don't care for my manager all too much. He is a butthead sometimes and ignores me since I am only an intern.
For fun, I like to write and roleplay, obviously. I also enjoy playing video games. I have a PS2, Wii, and Xbox 360. I just got the 360 and it's awesome! I also like to play tetris from time to time when I'm bored or whatever. I like to read and randomly speak French. I'm learning it and getting pretty good at understanding people. I just choke when it comes to speaking. The main reason I am learning French is because I know a lot of West Africans and nearly all of them speak French, so I want to know what they are saying. And the weird part is that even though I'm American, a lot of the Africans ask me if I'm from Togo or Benin. *shrugs*
As for family, I have my parents and two younger siblings: one sister and one brother. So, that makes me the oldest. My sister and I are often mistaken as twins...even though we are five years apart... My little brother and me usually play games together, though he is better than me. But I can still beat him at racing and fighting games for the most part.
But um...I think I cover just about everything.

Well, I'm Luke, as some of you might know. I RP Ethan Daniels, the great white terror ;D , and you may see me stalking the c-box sometimes.
So, I'm still in high school, my age isn't really important (15), and soccer is basically my life. I'm the goalie for my high school soccer team, and I absolutely love it. Especially when I'm bored during our games, because that means we're winning.
I am a guy, I'm straight though, and yes, I have an obsession with Disney movies and musicals. If my memory serves me correctly, I would take my Simba stuffed animal with me everywhere when I was a kid.
I'm in show choir, a tenor, which I don't really feel like explaining at the moment, but if you want to know what it is, just look it up. I'm a pretty good dancer, not the best singer, but it's fun none the less, though I'd have to say I like soccer a lot more.
I have one sibling, my sister, Kirby, who you may see around RPing as E.T. Matthews, and I love her to death; even when she forgets to take my name off on the c-box and put in her own.
I was in band for awhile, I played percussion, but I had a lot on my plate, so I dropped...I'm not very good anymore, but I could probably pick it back up again if I wanted to.
I have two pets, a husky named Brigadier, who has one blue and one brown eye, and an Egyptian mau (a breed of cat) named Juliet...she gets on my nerves a lot, but I still love her.
I share a couple of traits with Ethan...I love to surf (when I go to the ocean on vacation, that is) and I'm very competitive, as you may have guessed from "ew.. Books?" where I became obsessed with trying to get the highest word count (I failed unfortunately )
I have pretty severe asthma, so that's one of the reasons I'm the goalie, but it used to be a lot worse when I was a kid. It's getting better, but I'm still a long ways away from not having any asthma attacks ever.
I get average grades, well, average to me, all As with the occassional B, but I usually get that up to at least an A-.
I'm definitely not perfect, nobody is.
That's basically it, so, au revoir, mes amis.
