L likes pudding... owo;;
[ Name: ] Rachel
[ Age: ] :] Old enough.
[ Height: ] Short.
[ Personality: ] I think I'm just a contradiction in action, really. I try to be honest as much as possible, but it's really easy for me to make up a believable excuse/lie, leave out information, and my best deceptive tool - playing dumb. It's the best sort of lie too because sometimes I am faking ignorance and other times I really am that oblivious.
I'm a pretty laid-back person, but that could be because I'm rather apathetic. Sometimes, I just don't give a shit. I'm really stubborn.
I don't like being with a large group of people, especially when I don't know some of them. I prefer smaller groups where I know the people and I can talk to everyone and make sure they don't feel left out. Plus I feel comfortable that I can trust them.
I'm usually not competitive, but if I actually cared or I feel as though I let someone else down, I hate losing. I don't have to be THEBEST, but I definitely don't like being the worst.
I admit I'm a little selfish and I can be a little overconfident and arrogant.
I'm a cynic with an optimist's mindset - I see the bright side of things, but I kind of expect the worst and laugh at my bad luck.
I dislike fighting and arguing, but if I let it get to that point, I'm not going to back down without a fight. Or drag the other person down with me.
Usually I won't do something until I know how to and I'm confident with my abilities.
I'm a practical realist, but I'm still a little bit of an idealist.
[ Strengths: ] I stay calm and can analyze something with minimal emotional bias like stressful situations or emergencies.
For group projects, I won't be the obvious person who volunteers... but somehow, I usually end up planning and leading the group. Or at least doing all of the work. So I'd rather have solo projects because then you don't need to depend on anyone else. You only have yourself to blame if it turns out poorly. When I do get to work, I work hard and get it done as quickly and efficiently as possible.
I'm pretty creative, but that may contribute to my paranoia...
I don't like blindly doing what someone else tells me and I've always kind of done my own thing instead of following the trend. When I hear something about someone, I don't just automatically agree - I watch the person and make my own conclusion.
I think I'm good at reading people, but after I've watched them enough and made a decision, it's kind of hard to change it because I'm stubborn.
I don't like prying into other people's business or telling them what to do. I give them advice, but it's up to them whether they take it or not. I must give reasonable advice, since people keep asking me for it.
I learn quickly and can connect odd bits of information together... even though sometimes I have to explain how I got there.
I have a twisted sense of humor. Actually, Sweeney Todd was one of the funniest movies I remember seeing. But now my friend doesn't trust me to pick movies XD; At least I can laugh at myself.
[ Weaknesses: ] I think I'm stupid, but people tell me that I'm a bright kid; this could be because I don't have the highest self-esteem and I'm always doubting myself. Because of this I tend to overanalyze everything and think about things from so many different angles I end up not saying anything because I end up making up arguments for my own statements. XD I probably worry too much about things nobody's concerned with.
Maybe I'm too apathetic, because people are always accusing me of not caring enough about them and not seeming to be interested... If I'm willing to spend time with them, I do actually care. It could be because I'm too concerned with being too clingy, so I pull away too much. I'm pretty sure I have intimacy/trust issues and I unconsciously push people away. I'm just not that affectionate of a person.
I'm very paranoid and feel like I'm being watched all the time... but it's not all in my head, because people tell me that I am being watched when I'm walking around because... I'm still trying to figure that out, actually. I think it's because I kind of stick out, for better or worse.
Sometimes, I get worried because it feels like it's just way too easy to say or do something to hurt someone on purpose simply because they hurt me or made me angry, no matter how much I like/love them. Once I have had enough of a person, I completely cut off ties and probably won't forgive or forget. I'm a vengeful little shit. I hold grudges.
I have a bad sense of direction XD
I forgot! I tend to procrastinate and then freak myself out because I have so much work to do... so I end up stressed, rushing, and not getting much sleep. I'm getting better, I think...
If you can't tell already, I have a short attention span and get bored easily.
[ Bad Habits: ] Picking at wounds, overanalyzing, chewing nails, not paying attention... drawing instead, suppressing emotions, fiddling with things too much, rambling, cursing/cussing, breaking things when I lose my temper, messy, kind of disorganized, lazy, being apathetic, being careless when I'm not interested, pointing out breaks in logic/reality in movies/books/etc.
[ Likes: ] Drawing, reading, music, watching TV+movies, figuring out the plot, writing, sleep, spacing out, video games, things that make me think about perception and morals and such, dark humor, shopping, wasting spending time on the computer, having the time to do all of these things, doing something impressive, tattoos, making up stories, tea, coffee, sour food, spicy food, shocking people, making people laugh, the smell of cigarettes (don't smoke though)
[ Dislikes: ] Working so much, being stressed, being rushed, shallow people, fakes, shit talkers, arrogance, condescending people (got in a fight with an arrogant/condescending one), moochers, nosy people, liars, hurting other people's feelings (unless I'm doing it on purpose... then I absolutely relish it), forgetting where I put something, getting lost, hypocrisy, narrow-minded people, homophobia, racism, elitists, being considered weak or unintelligent, people not calling back/not doing what they say they will, silverfish, balloons
[ Hobbies: ] Eh... I believe they're the same as my likes.
[ Talents: ] Drawing, writing, multitasking, figuring out things quickly, picking things up with my toes... I can function on little sleep? ... I was more talented when I was a little kid; I could tie a knot with a cherry stem in no time, touch the tip of my nose with my tongue. I wish I'd kept those talents.
[ Interests: ] Right now, I'm suddenly on a Miyavi/Japanese fashion kick. Fashion in general. I like the aesthetic and the ability to change people's outside perception of you. Psychology - understanding people's possible motivations and mindset. Art, of course; drawing's in my blood.
[ Favourite character: ] Ryuk and L. Light made me laugh because he was such a smart, selfish, manipulative jerk - it's kind of a love/hate.
[ Least favourite character: ] Well... I wouldn't say least favorite, but not much respect for Misa, Takada, and Mikami because they thought another human being to be some kind of god and blindly obeyed him.
Misa was also just way too clingy, needy, and possessive... of someone who was obviously using her. I guess I can admire her dedication to someone.
Light for the reasons above.
Sakura TV with its Kira programs/propaganda and the support of the public was kind of disturbing.
[ Would you use the Death Note?: ] I don't think I would. Being guaranteed to go to Mu (nothingness) after I die doesn't sound as interesting as seeing what may happen.
I would keep it though, and then I could scare other people by touching them with a piece so they could see the shinigami. Just so I could get a kick out of their reaction.
[ Who would you use it on, and why?: ] Like I said, nobody. Although I might get really tempted...
[ Do you support Kira?: ] I could understand the original idea, but becoming a god? Too far. All that power was bound to go to Light's already inflated head.
Besides, I don't think one person can really judge all of humanity without being biased. And a murderer killing another murderer for that fact is like the teapot calling the kettle black.
[ Anything else you'd like to add?: ] Thanks for reading all that ^^; And sorry if it jumps all over and doesn't make sense. The amount of "I"s in this application bugs me @w@;;
