Hey everyone! Just joined in the middle of the night because I'm a total night owl c: So first things first, my name is Paige. and the reason behind the Kalon name is because I found out (via the internet) that it essentially means to believe in beauty that is inside and out. It's kind of a big deal to me because I'm dealing with some self-confidence issues at the moment (which my first character will reflect). But one good thing is that it has brought me back to RPing!
I used to roleplay when I was in like fourth through sixth grade because I used to love writing. Needless to say, I wasn't the best but I was fairly decent considering my age. I think anyways. Now I'm a sophomore in high school, and I really want to try and get back into writing and roleplaying because I miss it. I even started writing a story earlier today, shocking myself by actually having an idea haha.
Anyways, I was in an accident a month ago today actually. A car drove through my house, and I happened to be standing right in the way. I'm okay though, and my pain medicine is even going down in strength today which is good
I was really lucky and got away with a broken wrist (well forearm in my opinion), some broken ribs, and a broken collarbone. I also got a nasty cut through my cheek, which went through the muscles in my face. They still aren't all back to normal, but they're getting there. I also had surgery on my collarbone because the bones shifted, so they had to straighten everything out. So there's another pretty scar 
But like I said, I'm okay. I'm not explaining this to be pitiful or anything, I just want you guys to know because my activity will kind of go around that. I should be fairly active, because I'm not in school as I'm recovering. But I am going to start going back probably next week, and I have tons of make up work to work on. It's what I should be doing now but oh well... My teachers are all really nice about it and aren't really making me do the work. My counselor is even arranging it so I take my finals two weeks after everyone else since I've missed so much and need the extra time to get everything together.
So yeah, I might be active right now and through the next few weeks, but understand I will get a lot of work over break and will have a lot of studying to do. And once break is over, I will try my best to stay active! I do quite a bit of stuff though..
First, I take two honors classes: honors math (which next semester means pre-calc) and honors chemistry. Anyone who's good at those, let me know! I'll need help lol
Second, right now I am on the bowling team for my school. I hope to get to go back soon, because I didn't injure my bowling arm and my leg (idk if I mentioned it, but the muscle in my leg is sort of messed up) is doing well. During our first match I did the best on my team, and it was one of my higher scores. One of the best moments I've experienced haha. Everyone on the team says they really need me back lol I guess our season isn't going so well :/
Third, I have a job. I work at the best ice cream store ever: Baskin Robbins!!! My older sister worked there, and she went to college so she got me a job there right before she left. The best flavor? Salty Caramel, hands down.
Fourth, I play softball in the spring. For the second time ever in my life, last year I put on a softball glove and joined the softball team. Our softball team sucks, bad. But I loved the girls on the team, and I loved the practices. I'm not a good player, but it is a great stress reliever during practice. But it takes up a lot of time. Two hours of practicing, and if it's a game instead of practice I don't get home until like 8 or 9. I may or may not do it this year. I want to, but with my job I just don't know.
Next year I want to try and pick orchestra back up too. I play the cello <3 I'm trying to learn how to play the guitar, but I'm swamped!
Chances are that I will take time off in the spring if I do softball. I might take a week-3 weeks off when I start going back to school. I just want to make sure I don't overwhelm myself right now. But it's a maybe and it won't be until like January sometime.
Quick side note and I'm done! My RPing skills might not be so great, because it's been a long time. I'll be able to meet the minimum I think, but we'll see how it goes. And sorry this was so long, I just started writing and this all came out. So hey everybody, I'm glad to be here. I hope to become a better writer here, and hope I'll be able to stick around despite everything else there is
