Name: (real name if possible) Lauren
Nicknames: Takato
Age: 20
Gender: female
Likes: Reading, drawing, writing, mythology, cultures, anime and manga (particularly One Piece at the moment, but I've been known to change anime favourites every seven-eight months down the line), Japanese/classical/instrumental music, the paranormal.
Dislikes: MARY SUES! Close-minded, mean and homophobic people, crowded places, lables, BRATz *shivers*, stereotypes, fashion.
Hobbies: Heading to the Uni of a Saturday to watch anime (Ouran is my current favourite that we're screening); mythology research.
Talents: Writing, drawing, being perceptive, imagination, ability to adapt to any situation. I can also see right through the masks people create for themselves (the amount of trouble I had with high school helped that along...)
Strong Points: Loveable; I'm also very friendly and very creative.
Weak Points: Self doubt; I get angered very easily; I'm also extremely bipolar (eg; I can be very depressed one moment and happier the next).
Favorite Color: Purple, black, dark red, dark green.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: I'm a pessimist at heart.
Hyper or Calm or Normal Energy: I think I'm a toss up between Hyper and Calm, depending on the situation and the people I'm with.
Impulsive or Think Things Through: I think, but I'm also a bit impulsive.
Outgoing or Shy: A bit of a mix of both...I tend to be shy in large crowds and outgoing when I'm with my closest nakama.
Mature or Immature?: Depends on the situation. With my friends and girlfriend (that's right; I'm female and I have a girlfriend. Got a problem with it?), I can be immature at the worst of times. When I'm with family, though, I'm as mature as they perceive(sp?) me.
Leader or Follower?: Follower. I've never lead anyone in my life.
If you had the 3 wishes, what would they be?: Wish #1 would be everlasting peace for the entire world. Wish #2 would be to be able to experience being a pirate (which would so be cool but scary at the same time!). Wish #3 would be for homosexual marriages/bonding to be accepted by everyone.
Favorite Character? Why?: Chichiri. At first my favourite character was Noriko (still is to an extent), but Chichiri grew on me after his first appearance, and although it's been a while since I've read Fushigi Yuugi, he still is my favourite. It's his personality that draws me to him.
Anything else?: Just one picture, gomen.
