in Introduce Yourself
Hi,I'm Evie. I am in secondary school right now. I love to do cheer dance and sing. I have 2 dogs and 2 guinea pigs. My friends say I'm a crystal freak as I kinda have an obsession. I don't see what's wrong,maybe it's the fact I have almost 100? I'm super excited to be here. I have been here less than a month and I already love it. I had two mums but one died in October I joined so I had a space to talk without upsetting my mum,brother or friends. I have already feel so welcome as I have had quite a few comments on a post a made.
Thank so much and I plan on staying for a while!🥰

    Hey @IluvMinnie , welcome! I am Ella, and I am a Community Engagement officer in The Mix's staff team- I joined about a month ago now :)

    This is such a wonderful space to be, and it sounds like you've already found a supportive community here. Huge hugs for everything you've been through – losing a mum is incredibly tough, and it takes a huge amount of strength to find a space to talk and we are so proud of you for reaching out to this community <3

    Also, can we talk about your crystals?! A whole 100 – that's super impressive! Is there a particular one you find yourself drawn to the most? It's so cool how crystals can have such calming energy.

    It also sounds like you are super talented doing cheer and singing– is there a specific song you love to sing?

    We are always here if you need to talk, Evie! Do let me know if you have any questions or need help navigating the discussion boards :star:

    Hi Ella, my fav crystal is amethyst. I love to sing songs from six the musical especially don't loose your head sang by Ann Boleyn. It was hard for me to make my first post but when I did it I felt so much better. Thank you

    Hi @IluvMinnie welcome to the mix! I love crystals and have a collection too! My favourite is labradorite. What are your pets called?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Miss Posts: 10 Settling in
    Hi @lunarcat522, labradorite is probably about 5th on my list. My dogs are called Minnie and Ernie. My guinea pigs are called Piggy and Benny. :3

My favourite crystals to use are snow quartz, amethyst I can't remember if I can got amethyst now but I have got a bracelet version of it I sometimes wear and I also love Citrine too!.

    Hiya Evie. Welcome to the community. Hope you can find some support or peace here if you need! And sorry to hear about your loss :heart:

    Poor Ernie, based on your name I assume Minnie is your favourite? (perhaps the spoilt one?) :lol:

    Anyways, take care!

    Hi everyone! I have started to hear my pass mums voice around the house and when I'm out. My other mum can't hear these and neither can my brother. Does anyone have any advice?
