Name: Joan
Nicknames: Amethyst, Luna, Aerith
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Likes:Well, let's see now. I like cats, as they're just filled with awesome. Video games, obviously. Reading anything I can get my hands on, preferably fantasy novels or manga. The moon. Walking at night with friends. Aurora Borealis. Rain.
Dislikes: Lies and liars. People who abuse others. Pain. Labels. People who judge others on appearance alone and not soul.
Hobbies: Drawing, reading, writing, playing video games, watching films
Talents: I'm a speed reader; can beat most video games within a week or less; I never met a cat who didn't like me.
Weaknesses: I'm loyal to a fault, and can sometimes overlook a person's wrongdoings simply because they're my friend. I also have problems with low self-esteem and tend to put myself down a bit. I'm also not very graceful, and klutz my way through life with a lot of, seemingly, luck.
Strengths: People say I'm a trustworthy friend. I'm loyal to them as well. I'm a quick learner and pick up on new concepts and ideas fast (I know that doesn't sound modest, sorry)
Goals: I have every intention of returning to college (I had to drop out to support my mother), but beyond that, I'm not sure. I'm hoping to get into either Journalism or Computer Graphics/Animation, as both appeal to me.
Introverted or extroverted: Introverted, absolutely. I'm extremely shy to most people, and only really open myself up to my friends. The only exception is when I'm at work (I work Retail), which is when I *have* to be outgoing; I'm a completely different person while working.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: Depends, really. I was a pessimist for most of my life, while remaining an optimist to my friends when they needed cheer. I try to remain a realist for the most part, which I suppose would lump me as a worldly pessimist, but I'm a personal optimist at heart (Though I'd never admit it! You saw nothing! *mind wipe*
Mature or immature: Again, depends on the circumstance. While at work or doing something important, I can be extremely mature and polite, to the point of being detached. If with my friends, I'm the antithesis of that, and goof around a lot.
Leader or follower: Leader. Following is too drab, and doesn't allow for much independance.
Brains or brawn: Brains. Brawn is helpful, sure, but without something to temper it, it's quite meaningless. Plus, brains = sexy.
Favorite animal: Cat. Sly, cunning, intelligent, graceful; everything I'd want to be. Loved them since I was a child, too.
Favorite color: Purple. It has an aire of mystery and enchantment to me. Does that make sense?
Favorite weapon: A simple sword will do the trick, although if I had the grace, I'd love the claws.
Favorite kingdom: I was a die-hard Shu fanatic until I started learning more about Wu. It's a toss-up between the two.
Pick one to three favorite characters, explain why you like them:
Lu Bei; his loyalty and determination inspire me. (EDIT: I totally meant Lu Bei. Don't know how Lu Bu snuck up in there)
Yue Yang: Not only because she's a woman on a battlefield dominated by men, but because she can hold her own. She's also quite cunning and intelligent.
Anything else you want us to know? Nope, I think i bored you all enough for today.
Pictures(optional): None now, sorry.
Thanks for reading. :D
