Nobody's ever got that reference before
Basics
1. Name: Matty.
2. Age: Nineteen.
3. Gender: Female.
4. Do you care if you're stamped as a guy or a girl? To be honest, I do not care about the gender. If I'm more like a male character in my personality, I wouldn't be offended since I'm a female.
In-Depth
5. Three Words to Describe You: Quiet. Intelligent. Opinionated.
6. Strengths: I'm very good at keeping my emotions in check and I feel that has helped me in life. I don't want to make it seem like my life has been hard (It has in no way been) but it does throw some things at you that can be tough to deal with, and unfortunately, you have to eventually move on.
7. Weaknesses: I find my inability to relate to others a major weakness. It's hard for me to do so.
8. Dreams: I would like to in the next four to five years graduate college, pursue a career in journalism and just to continue writing in all forms.
9. Fears: Losing those I love. I have lost three people close to me, and it never gets easier.
10. Talents: I like to think I'm a good writer. Other than that, I don't really have many true talents. I have a knack from general HTML, but in this day and age, that's not that impressive.
11. Hobbies: As I said, I love to write. I also love reading, going for walks and attending local shows.
12. Likes: Typhoo tea, cheesy movies, zombies, journalism, pretzels, crime shows, dandelions, movie theaters, going to shows, gummi sharks, postcards, Indian cuisine, cardigans, Minesweeper, good literature, photo booths, false mustaches, claw machines, the smell of freshly washed laundry, thrift stores, cardboard cutouts, crows, colourful socks, and planners.
13. Dislikes: Comedians who laugh at their own jokes, drivers who do not use turn signals, odd numbers, how the numbers on the toaster make no real difference and most of popular music these days.
Favorites
14. Color? Why?: My favourite colour has always been purple. I'm not really sure why, but it was the colour of my room growing up and I just loved how bright and obnoxious it was.
15. Animal? Why?: Cats. I have always been a cat person. I currently have three. They are the perfect companion for those who do not have the time or patience to take care of a dog. They do not constantly need your attention, but when something is wrong, they know to crawl up on your lap and lay with you.
16. Quote? Why?: "Well, it's a crazy f**ked up world and we're all just barely floating along waiting for someone who can walk on water." - Heroin Bob, SLC Punk I just always thought this quote is incredibly true concerning the world today. No one tries to make things better for themselves. They wait for someone else to fix it for them.
17. Music? Why?: Genre wise, I would have to say alternative. I know that is obscure, but most of the music I listen to is hard to categorize. My favourite band is The Matches. I have seen them three times, touring for each of their three albums, and the show never ceases to amaze me. They're a newer band that has not put out the same album time and time again.
18. Season (Fall, Spring, Winter, Summer)? Why?: Definitely fall. I just love how beautiful the leaves look when they fall down. Plus, I don't fare well in hot weather. I like the cool weather.
19. Criminal Minds character? Why?: Dr. Spencer Reid. I'd be lying if I didn't say I was first drawn to him because I love Matthew Gray Gubler, but after watching the show, I felt he was the one they developed the most. His past is fascinating and the way he deals with his issues always makes for good television.
20. Least favorite Criminal Minds character? Why?: I don't really dislike any of the characters. I was upset with how Elle left the show and while I always thought she was a great, strong female role model, I hated how she over reacted like that.
Which one? Explain each choice.
21. Mature or Immature: Mature. I know when to have fun, but I would much rather have an intelligent conversation than one filled with "That's what she said" jokes.
22. Leader or Follower: Leader. I've always acted independently when it came to most things and I always hated the idea that anything I had done was not my idea.
23. Optimistic or Pessimistic: I'm trying to be optimistic, though I was always more pessimistic in the past. Things are looking up, though.
24. Outgoing or Shy: I really am mixture of both. I'm more outgoing in a school setting, but when it comes to socializing with my peers, I tend to freeze up.
25. Freewill or Fate: Freewill. I don't believe in fate or that anything in our lives is written in stone. You do have to work hard to change something, but it is possible.
26. Impulsive or Cautious: Impulsive. I always thought I was a cautious person, but I realized when I get an idea in my head, it won't leave until I act upon it.
27. Social or Anti-Social: Oh, I'm very anti-social. The friends I do have, I've had for awhile. It's hard for me to talk to people I just meet because I'm always afraid I'm going to reveal too much about myself and scare them away.
28. Calm or Hyper: Calm. I'm more likely to be sitting at the computer discussing the meaning of something in a movie on a message board than outside running around.
29. Family or Friends: Family. There are some friends that I consider family, so I do count them in my choice. Family to me means those who know you inside and out and love you anyway.
30. Activity or Quiet: Quiet simply because it's easier to concentrate and I hate not being able to gather my thoughts together.
31. Justice or Compassion: Compassion. I'm not the best at acting compassionate toward people, but I would hope that others could be toward me.
32. Would you want to be in the BAU in RL? I don't think I'd be up for the job, but I have been told that I'm good at reading people. It comes with the territory. Being a Communications major, I've been studing the meaning behind people's verbal and non-verbal communication for years.
33. Description or Picture
34. Anything else: I think that about covers it. This was fun. :)
