[about you]
Describe your personality In general? Pretty approachable and can adapt easily for my friends. I'm not the most out-going person, but I'll talk if you talk to me. *nods* I tend to find it awkward to talk about myself. and when I actually do, it's... kinda just simple and short, you know?
When it comes to conversations, I tend to listen to people talk rather than talk for them. I'm not exactly the best conversationalist if I have to be careful with that I say around you.
But to see the more talkative me? Heh. You'd have to know me for a while~. XD Among my friends? I guess they find me.... "eccentric" for any better words? I always tend to think they know me more than I know myself, if that makes any sense.
And they seem to think I'm nice and/or understanding in my own way, even if it's not quite everyone's definition of "nice" or "sweet"?
Some have told me that I'm easy to talk to. Or that I can make them laugh on a bad day.
What do you like the most about yourself?
....Huh. I'm not sure how to answer that, honestly. Sorry. x:
What would you rather change about your personality?
I wish I wasn't so vindictive when angry. I find it hard to forgive if I can't forget....
[meeting the parents]
Describe the relation you have with your parents giving as many details as you feel comfortable with:
Hah. Long story short? My father. ....He's the type of parent that will always finds some flaw in anything his kids do. And then he brings those flaws up and bursts his daughter or son's bubble after they felt like they did their best. Doing this eventually shaped his children into young adults with low self-confidence and perfectionist tendencies, as they can't ever recall a time he was proud of them. This is the type of parent that puts such high expectations on his kids and then thinks he has the right to be mad if his child doesn't do what HE wants them to do. Basically? I have this "I'm-only-tolerating-you-because-I'm-forced-to." relationship and he tries to ignore that very fact. :/
My mother... She is the kind of parent that went though so much hell in her own childhood but she did what she did to make sure her children never EVER had to go through being poor, abused, and become independent when you're still a kid yourself.... I adore my mother. I would be devastated if I ever disappointed her. Or even lied to her. As I got older and after she divorced my father, I like to think I've gained more confidence in myself and become somewhat more assertive.
They both remarried. Long story short? I don't acknowledge either of them as my other parent, and they both accept that.
My step father's a nice guy, from what I see... Because I care for my mother so much, let's just say that he has to deal with me being a bit over protective. :P
Would you change anything of this relation?
Perhaps. If it means speaking with my father MUCH less, then yes.
Do you see yourself moving to a faraway place or do you like to be close to your family?
If reaching my goals means being far away, I will do it regardless. But it doesn't mean that I WON'T keep in touch with my mother and siblings. D:
What qualities do you think make an ideal parent? ....Loving your child regardless of what they do/decide to do, Let the past influence you positively for the sake of your own children, an open mind.
What do you think a (good) parent should never do? Expect the child to be just like you, the parent letting their bad past turn them into a unpleasant parent who only upset/hurt their children.... And already having your child's future planned for them. This one, especially. :/
What do you think is worse: over-protectiveness or giving too much freedom to the kids? Hm.. It's like someone said, those both have their pros and cons. I guess I'll have to say over-protectiveness, in a sense that IF the parent is trying to enforce their own morals onto their kids and not let them think for themselves.
[the world of Fire Emblem]
Describe the childhood you’ll like to have in this kind of world: The kind of child who learns at an early age that having two dads or moms isn't "normal", but adores the parents taking care of her, nonetheless. The kind of parents that will take her to travel all sorts of places together and grows up trying to be like her dads or moms.
Do you see yourself following the family business or going your own path? Most likely follow it. *nods* But if I ever have a reason to go my own path, I would consider it. But not without apologizing a lot to my family when I do. ):
A war is about to start: your parent wants to support one of the countries, but you think that’s a mistake. What do you do? Bite my tongue and try so hard not to argue with them. But if they considered that I'm any bit like the other parent, they would know that I'd have a mouthful to say about this. :/
Your best friend is in trouble and needs you! Your parent thinks you shouldn’t get involved, do you still go to help even if that means having a big argument with your parent? Tch. They should know by now that that's just the kind of person I am. :P *would be a stubborn daughter* Can't say that I'd look forward to an argument with 'em, but ah well... It'd be worth it, helping that friend.
Like it happens to every good hero, your parent is tragically killed. Do you search for revenge or try to move on? I would spend several years being hateful and become VERY vindictive. My life would be somewhat better if I knew who was the culprit. I've held grudges for as long as I can remember, so I can't say I'd move on all that easily...
Anything else you’d like to share? YOU WERE ADOPTED. 8D
......wait.
