A new tavern! Take a look around and make yourself cosy!
This is the place for off-topic chat, sharing, and hanging out!
You can find our old Tavern here.

Note: BlogTeam discourages making short, spammy comments in quick succession, as this can make Tavern pages go past really quickly. Commenting for the sole purpose of taking over the purrs or just because can cause other comments to get buried. However, we still encourage you to share your thoughts and just chat away, of course, but making comments for the sake of making comments is discouraged 🙂
We also encourage people to avoid using special fonts in their display names, because it can cause screen readers (which read all of the text, emojis, and images on the screen out loud) to crash or make things impossible for people to understand (click here for an article about that). Screen readers are used by people with visual impairments and help make things more accessible for them, so let’s all do our part in keeping the blog a place that they can come visit and chat on without issue 🙂

Hey guys! I have not been on here in so long! I just feel really weird on here, like I feel like I can’t be on here anymore because I haven’t been posting in so long. I just wanted to say, even though I may not be on here much, I miss this place. I just wanted to make sure I’m still welcome to be on here.

YOU ARE WELCOME
Welcome back Dapple!
Hi Dapple!! You will always be welcome!!1 😀 <3

First snow of the year today 😀
still school though, sadly 🙁
Ooooo well at least that means you won’t have to stay at school in the summer
Cool 😀
i also got snow but they canceled school for us
Sorry 🙁
At least it snowed 🙂
Super!
Today there was a snow storm all day. The snow is about a meter deep now! My best friend takes the bus to school every day, and it hit a ditch and got stuck. So he couldn’t get home after school… (He was late for the first lesson this morning as well)
I’m going to have ski training tonight, it will be the first time this year that I train on snow with my ski group. Hope he can come, that his car doesn’t fall into a ditch too…
That’s amazing! Sorry your friend got stuck by the snow, though 🙁
oooh niceeee!!
Oohhh unlucky for your friend 🙁 The snow here is like two centimeters deep, I wish I could go skiing
Ooooohhh cool
for me it snowed and then the snow melted 😛
Super!
Ughhh why is it Wednesday tomorrow 😛 least favorite time of the week aside form tuesdays
I agree, Wednesdays are the worse! The only reason I now look forward to them are because that’s the day I volunteer at the sea life rehabilitation center near my house.
Hi Otto! This is unrelated, but I was looking at your display name- if you want, I can be your apprentice! 🙂 (i was looking for a mentor!)
That would be amazing!
Yay! 😀 (do you want me to put your name as a mentor in my display name??)
At least it’s halfway through the week 😛
three more days til friday
No, wednesdays are great!!! I have music, piano and lab all directly after each other!
That sounds awesome!!
Half way through the week tho 🙂
I used to love Wednesdays bc I did Impromptu Speaking UIL (it’s an extra curricular that you can do and compete in if you didn’t know 🙂 ) Now it’s over and I’m stuck in study hall for half an hour instead 😭 I loved the group of ppl we had bc they were all my friends
hm i like Wednesdays because there’s literally nothing on my schedule so i just chill all day after school 😛
Hi, how could I get a secret page?

NEWS TITLE: OLD MAN TRIES TO RELATE TO THE YOUTHS <—- literally an 18 year old
also i changed my pfp back to my winter squidward i’ve been doing for years, but wordpress is weird and it won’t change for a couple of days lmao
I LOVE YOUR NAME BLUEBELL OMGGG
the old man part took me out ngl LOL
AWHH IT LOOKS WONDERFUL BELLA !!!!
yay! love the name
don’t worry, a tenth grader doing the long name thing 😛
BLUEBELL OMG I DIDN’T RECOGNIZE YOU (I actually was too lazy to read your name lol) I love the name!! Way to hop on the trend lol
I love your name 😀
And here I am, with the shortest display name I’ve had in months 😛
I love it sm 😛 for some reason I thought your name was literally Handbellsponge when I first joined the blog (or at least, I think I did) haha
I love the name! Looks FANTASTIC!
(Don’t call yourself old! It makes ME feel old <– is literally 3 years younger)
woah your name looks cheetah-tastic bluebell!! 🧡
I was playing Clangen and I got a cat called evilface!
Whuh – ?? 😛 Now Evilface needs a backstory, please, it needs to happen 😛
I’m obliging: Evilface was born a rogue but was left at the clan by his mother who claimed she couldn’t take care of them. A queen named ___ took him in, The queen named them Leafkit, The queen was forced to give him up after 4 moons of living in the clan when his birth mother showed up claiming she was his rightful mother, and belonged with her.
The queen loved Leafkit and grew resentful of Leafkit’s birth mother, So the queen hunted them down demanding for the kitten, which she raised back. When the birth mother said no, she tried to grab the 5 moon old kitten and run, but his birth mother attacked and killed her, after that, he ran and hid, made his way back to the clan, and became an apprentice.
Leafpaw couldn’t shake the memory of their birth mother killing his adopted. He grew so angry they hunted down their birth mother and killed her, his mother fought back as she didn’t recognize Leafpaw, and they earned a scar across the muzzle. With the blood on their paws, they realized how much they loved the adrenaline rush of murder and went on a killing rampage, earning them the Name Evilface.
(I had to make up a very… Unrealistic and Cringy-ish backstory I HAD too.)
oh wow
!!!
Gotta admit, I love my Clangen
*springs up from bed and runs to computer to play Clangen*
Haha sounds evil 😛
😛

Do you guys like sleepovers?
I sort of like them but I generally just want to sleep in my own bed and recharge my social battery but im going to one this weekend so yay ig 😛
I’ve unfortunately never been on a sleepover, so I can’t say 😛 Hope you enjoy yours though!
I hate them
i never had a sleepover tbh 😛
Not really! I like to spend time with my friends, but I also prefer to sleep in my own bed and recharge, so sleepovers aren’t for me ^^”
They are fun 🙂
I love sleepovers and I have them every other weekend bc I never see my bestie anymore (she moved schools) and her family lives me so much. Her siblings are practically my siblings. But I do love sleeping in my own bed. Have fun bestie
No, and I haven’t had one because I honestly think sleeping at other people’s homes are kind of rude and weird even though a lot of my friends go on sleepovers haha 😛
i very rarely have sleepovers and I don’t like them unless it’s with a really close friend or relative =]
This afternoon has been great so far 🙂 For starters, I had an interesting art history class, and the lunch workers whom I haven’t seen since our break started were happy to chat a bit with me 😀 I got to take a walk outside in the snow and that was wonderful, and then my mom got a matcha latte with me and when I came home some keychains I had bought had arrived!
How are you all doing today?
That sounds awesome! And I’m doing good, my day was a bit tiring but I’m home now.
That sounds great! I had an ah day. I have a lot of homework 🙁
oooh what kind of period are you currently learning about in art history? 😀
and nice! what keychains you got?
also i am doing well! classes were canceled today so stayed home all day… well lies i walked to the grocery store with my sister in the snow 😛
We’re learning about the Hiberno-Saxon period, also known as the migratory period! 😀 They had some really cool art styles there in their pottery, it makes me want to incorporate it in my drawings ^^
They’re keychains with the mascot of my favorite musician, Kikuo! One of them sadly arrived broken but I’m hoping it’s nothing glue can’t fix 😛 Here they are! https://imgur.com/a/YNb0Pms
Hope you had a good walk there! 😛
Oooh, nice!! I’d love for it to snow here, although to be fair I’d rather look at it through the window than walk in it because I get cold super easily. My day wasn’t too great sadly, but hey, I’m not in college tomorrow! Good thing too since I’ve lost my voice =’)
Sorry to hear that your day wasn’t so good! Hope you feel better soon though, losing your voice sucks 🙁 Don’t know if I’ve asked you already, but what’s your favorite season?
Hmmm, I don’t think I have a favourite! I’m always looking forward to the next one by the end of whichever season it already is haha. Winter does have Christmas in it though! =D
I see! Winter’s actually my favorite season, so that kinda works out ^^ Sometimes when autumn is happening and it gets so chilly, I wonder if I’ll be able to handle winter, and then instantly when it comes it makes me happy haha 😛
I’m so glad your day was great!! I had benchmarks today :/ and tomorrow I have to take an algebra benchmark 😭 I’ll sleep afterwards tho >:)
Thanks!! And good luck with algebra! I have to ask though, I’m not familiar, what are benchmarks? 😅
Tysm, and that’s ok. Benchmarks are like practice tests. We have what’s called a STAAR Test in America (idk about other peeps sry) STAAR Tests are like finals but a bit diff. For example, they are run by UIL (another thing that might just be in America idk tho) You take them from elementary/primary school to middle school/secondary school. We take one in math and reading every year, and in 5th and 8th grade we take science, and in 8th grade we take history. Sorry if I just confused you more lol. (They aren’t hard (for me) it’s just the though of sitting for four hours and testing for four hours is draining in itself. Usually I take an hour tho. I’m fast when it comes to testing I guess.) But afterwards our teachers are nice and let us be lazy!!!
Oh, it seems like STAAR tests and UIL are both Texas things! That’s interesting to hear how long you take them, and how many you need to take. When I was in grade school we didn’t have to take complex tests like that. I completely get the draining aspect though, that’s how I felt when I took the SATs!
That sounds like a great afternoon! Although I’m not a big fan of matcha, matcha latte sounds delicious 😛
I’m doing okay, just a bit tired from doing schoolwork haha 😛
Do you like matcha when it’s in other things? They put some vanilla syrup in the latte, which might suit your tastes 😛
What work have you been busy with?
ooh that sounds like a cheetah-tastic day! i’m not doing much just studying Japanese in one out of my like 500 Japan guide/language books 😛 I am always preparing for Japanese camp next summer haha- otherwise I’m literally doing nothing, I might try to find a new cheetah documentary I haven’t watched yet, though idk if that’s even possible 😛
Ooh, do you have a Japanese book that you’d recommend for people who want to learn? 😀 I’ve been watching Tokyo street style videos recently, haha 😛 Guess we’ll see if you end up finding a new cheetah documentary! 😛
I REALLY haven’t been active- some stuff has been happening so like- ye. might still not be active…. `~`
We understand Coby <3
that’s fine! 😀
it’s fine bestie <3
(Even though I literally watched you type this in school 😛 )
It’s okay! <3
it’s ok! <3
