Hi! I’m new here :)

Hellooo, I just posted my first, “Somethings not right” post just then hahaha now I’m introducing myself!

I am transitioning from a youth forum, to this forum. I am not sure if I’m allowed to say this, I used to be in the 15-25 years forum. I thought I’d suss out this place!

I’m not quite sure what I can or cannot do on this forum. Is there any place where I can see the guidelines?

Anyways, I’ll introduce myself! I like to be a bubbly person sometimes! One word to describe me: Sunflower 🌻

Anyways your turn! I’d like to know a little bit about you ☺️ And think of one word to describe you and share it if you’d like!

Re: Hi! I’m new here :)

Hey @owo

Welcome to the forums! It's lovely to have you here 💚

Transitioning from a youth-focused space to a new forum can definitely feel like a big leap! Many people find themselves in the same position as they grow, so you're in very good company here.

I love that you chose the word sunflower; it's a very bright and resilient choice! 🌻

To answer your prompt, if I had to pick one word to describe me would be matcha, it's a distinct and grounding word. It has the perfect balance between earthy and calm, but also gives that little boost of energy, which I hope is what I give off to others on here, as I'm a Peer Guide (still waiting for my badge on here) 💚

A few things I enjoy are playwriting and digital art. I also love antiques, plants, and trinkets.

Hi 👋🏼 @owo Welcome to the Forum. What a great idea for a new thread, “One Word” 🙌🏼

@Monks64 @tyme @Jynx Do we have a One Word thread, as in One Word to Describe Yourself?

@owo the best word to describe me is Systems.
