これでやっと行ける、あなたの元へ ― ロックオン．．．
General Information
★ Name:
Shikumo
★ Age:
Well, how old do I actually look like?
★ Gender:
Biologically female, if that's what you're asking.
★ Likes:
Animanga (of course), seiyuus, tea, purple, travelling, psychology, sleeping, small kittens, writing/receiving letters, classical music, collecting stuff (eg. bookmarks, CDs, anime merchandise), quite places, being alone, anything sweet (eg. cakes), winter, starry night, etc.
★ Dislikes:
Smoke/tabacco (I physically can't stand it), sports, green, biology, noisy places, pointless parties, group work/project, anything sour, summer, bright daylight, people who have no brains, people who are rude/boorish, being disturbed when I'm in the middle of playing/practising piano/violin, being woken up without my prior consent, being unwillingly deprived of sleep by a third party, etc.
★ Hobbies, Interests, Talents:
Piano (learning ever since I was 3), violin, flute (have yet to learn), tecnhnology/computers (both hardware/software-wise), graphics, languages (currently fluent in 4), translation, memory (digit span up to 12), etc.
★ Describe yourself in three words:
Dignified, intelligent, mysterious.
In Depth
★ Strong Points:
I'm extremely loyal: once you get on my mental friend list, I'll be devoted to you and will do anything I can for you unless you betray me. For example, I've liked this female idol ever since 1999 (still liking her now) and I've never liked any other female idols. I've also liked the game/animanga seris Gakuen Heaven ever since 2006. Yet if I do not consider you as a friend, I can be as cold as an iceberg. Literally. Hmph.
Besides, I'm a fast learner and I'm able to learn both science and arts subjects equally well, although I have a personal preference on arts subjects like literature over science ones like biology. I'm also observant: you can try as hard as you can, but chances are that I'll still realize whatever you're trying to hide. Well, that's true only if I see you as a friend though as I've said above; I don't care otherwise.
Sleep is also one of my main strong points. I'm able to sleep anywhere and anytime: even with windows wide open, lights all on, with blasting music, etc... I once even fell alseep when I was standing when I was stil a kid! If I'm unable to sleep, the reasons will only be: 1) I'm sick, 2) I'm having jet-lag or 3) I've watched a horror movie.
★ Weak Points:
Health/stamina is one of my major weakness. I've got low blood pressure, and somehow I get sick really easily... from minor things like headaches to more serious ones like fainting. Hence, I cannot do sports whatsoever.
I have a tendency to skip meals unintentionally, because I tend to lose track of time easily when I'm working on something (and when I realize, it's already way past mealtimes).
This is not a major weakness, but I'm really mic-shy (so I tend to avoid phone calls). I also have a weakness against guys with long hair, especially blonde/purple-coloured.
This is not really a weakness, but I have a thing against making decisions, perhaps because I'm used to follow instructions/orders. Even on tiny matters like what to eat for dinner, I'd prefer others to decide for me.
★ Fears:
Except my instinctive fear of worms, I don't really have any other fears. Might sound like a lie, but it's true.
★ Goals in Life:
To become a clinical psychologist sometime in the distant future. For now, I'll focus on getting relevant experience as a psychology graduate in order to work towards my goal.
★ How do you perceive yourself?
Well... I've thought about it, but I don't quite know how to answer this question...
★ How do people perceive you?
Depends on who they are.
For those who are worth my respect, they usually think I'm a well-educated girl from a nice family who is friendly, obedient and innocent, because when they talk to me I'll always reply nicely and politely with a smile (what I'm really thinking is another matter). Also as someone who's physically weak and needs to be protected.
For those who are closer to me, they may realize I actually am not always the angel I seem to be. I'm still very loyal yes, but they will find out that I know how to joke around and that I can play tricks on them if they get a bit too familiar with me... well, just for fun of course, no offence.
For everyone else (including relatives that does not deserve my respect - just because they are related to me by blood doesn't mean they get special treatment), they may see me as a proud and silent girl who rarely talks. Probably also as someone who considers herself better than others.
★ What does "Trust" mean to you?
Betryal. To me, the word "trust" means someone whom I can believe/listen to his words/actions or carry out his orders/decisions/wishes without any needs of questioning beforehand/afterwards or without any traces of doubts, and vice versa.
★ Describe your personality:
Personality-wise, I'm a silent person who doesn't really talk more than what is necessary. At times when speech can be replaced by action (like nodding instead of saying "yes"), I will usually perform the action instead of saying the speech.
I'm also a very calm person. No matter what happens, I'll usually stay calm and collected - either because I don't care/am not interested in what is happening, or I already know how to deal with the situation, etc. The situation will have to be really, really desperate or serious before I'll start to panic or show signs of nervousness.
Other aspects of my personality is already covered in other answers.
Short Answer
★ If you have lost everything and everyone you love, what would you do?
I've had previous experiences where I've lost the things/persons/etc I love, or get betrayed numerous times. Since then I've learnt not to love/like/trust people easily, so I don't think I've got that much things/persons left to be lost anymore... while some other things (such as my love for music) cannot be forcefully gotten rid of by a third party.
★ Are you a Leader or a Follower?
To me, it's always wiser to be a follower. Being a leader means extra responsibility; it's just too troublesome. I'll gladly let others take the lead... although if necessary, I'll drop hints here or there for the leader to pick up or advice/direct the leader's thought back to the right path so that the group won't wander off onto a wrong way. Although if I can choose, I'd very much rather be an observer instead.
★ Are you optimistic or Pessimistic?
Realistic. Both realistically optimistic and realistically pessimistic, depending on the event/situation.
★ What is your general Mood?
Calm and apathetic.
Gundam 00
★ Favorite Character and why?
Tieria Erde, because he is voiced by my number one favourite seiyuu Kamiya Hiroshi XD. I can't really explain why - I'm just naturally attracted to both his appearence and his personality. What first attracted my attention was his effeminine appearence (I've got a soft spot for "ukeish" guys with long/purple/blonde hair xD), but later on it was the mystery around him and his character development that really got me into liking him. Well, I don't think there has to be reasons for liking someone anyway.
★ Least Favorite Character and why?
Seeing as Gundam 00 is not finished (season two on its way <3), I'm currently holding an open mind about all other characters who aren't my favourites. I'll decide who my least favourite character is when I get to know more about them (I have to admit I don't know that much about those non-meisters at the moment), though at the moment I don't really like the Trinity brothers (especially Nena) because of their indiscriminant killings. I know most of the time they're only folloing orders, but "just because I want to" is not a valid reason to kill off a wedding party on your way home, for example!
★ Favorite Mobile Suit?
Nadleeh, because I can completely control all other Gundams through its Trial System, and also how it can be hidden perfectly under Virtue.
★ Least Favorite Mobile Suit?
None actually, but if I have to choose one... probably Kyrios, simply because I can NEVER ever control it properly in the Gundam00 NDS game xD
* Would you join Celestial Being? (please explain what you think their motives are if yes)
At the moment I'm not quite sure if I'll volunteer myself into Celestral Being, but I don't mind joining if I'm recruited/invited. I don't really care about the "true motive" of the organisation either, as long as I think what I did/am doing is justified.
* Haro?
Haro is cute but... I don't really need one.

★ Anything Else?
I apologise for this long application... ||| If possible, please don't stamp me as a female? And that don't rate me as Nena because of my apparent hair-style, or Wang Liu Mei because I' m Asian... Thank you for reading up till this point.
