Applying for a Restamp: Last stamp - America.
It's All About YOU
Name or Nickname: Molly
Gender: Female
What do you LOVE?: I love history and historical figures. I love waking up in a warm bed on a winter day, knowing I don't have to go to school. I love sneaking food into the Media Center and calling my friends by codenames (I'm Hidalgo). I love the bewitching architecture of Antoni Gaudi. I love singing in Spanish, the contrast between white clouds and blue sky, receiving LJ comments, being called "cute," Christmas music, revolutions, dangly earrings, cats, the scent of baking chex mix, joking around and making people laugh, wit and sarcasm ...I could go on...
And what do you HATE?: Stupid !@#%$#& who don't know how to DRIVE! When people complain, day after day, about the same exact thing but then never do anything about it. Little groups of people who clump together, immobile, in hallways like blood platelettes cutting off circulation. Making mistakes. Historical inaccuracies when accuracy is a central issue. Imaginary Numbers. Headaches. Too much homework. Determinism: sorry, but I happen to like my free will! Making people feel bad or offending them.
Strengths: My insatiable curiosity and desire to know. I put my all into projects, homework, and Tai Chi. I'm pretty smart - I'm good at memorizing and remembering things. Telling stories (via writing), multiple choice tests, languages... I know a whole boatful of useful, but fun facts. I can cook from a recipe. I'm very honest. Unless someone just... completely rubs me the wrong way, I tend to like everyone.
Weaknesses: Haha, a little bit of road rage. Math. I'm a horrible procrastinator. I have a hard time spelling "strength" and saying "philosophize" and "philosophizing." I am very shy, unsure, and struggle with making sometimes even very simple decisions. I try to be as non-commital as possible - partly so that if anything goes wrong, no one can blame me. I sometimes become paranoid that I've offended someone or that my friends don't like really like me. I'm easily influenced by the opinions of my family and friends - except in the case of politics, in which it's a struggle to change my opinion. I say a lot of stupid things (example: Just this past August: "So... where in Italy is Athens...? ...FAIL.")... but I like to joke around and deny that I said them, unless they're so dumb that I have to point them out sometimes repeatedly.
Hobbies: Anime, manga, reading, Tai Chi, Kung Fu, messin' around on the Internet, I started RPing for the first time ever, searching for Rock in Spanish, writing historical poetry (Embargo Act of 1807, Richard Henry Lee, Citizen Genet, Sealand: all previous topics), researching historical stuff.
Favorite Color: light lime/minty green. And dark sky blue.
What is your favorite food?: The cheeseburgers from the best restaurant in town... Pizza, French bread, homemade chex mix, pears
Favorite Country (without taking Hetalia into consideration): By experience, I can only say the US. But... I have developed a recent obsession fascination with ♥ Latvia! ♥
Mature or Childish?: My basic state is both and I can switch between the two easily... Childish with my siblings, both with my very good friends, mature with pretty much everyone else unless I'm dead set on making a new friend.
Would you prefer to lead or follow?: I'm happy to follow under a good leader, but after a while if no one is stepping up, I'll do it myself. Also, if things just aren't working, I'll get tough and dole out tasks, taking on the most myself because if I'm in a situation where I have to lead, I generally don't trust the others in the group.
Let's Talk HETALIA
Favorite Character and WHY: Latvia is so pathetically, adorably cute. Russia is terrifying and creepy. Prussia is a warmonger, but very tragic and alone. UK and France and the way they interact. America and his... America-ness. Sealand and how he so desperately wants to be a nation! Spain and... well, I just love Spain.
Is there a certain strip that really sticks out for you?: BABY!AMERICA! So cute~! And Sweden promising Finland kids! And a shadow of Holland! Ohmygod! And they're all fighting over who gets to be America's brother, d'awww!
Hamburgers or Tea OR MAPLE SYRUP?: Hamburger please, with American cheese! I don't understand tea... Maple syrup only sometimes.
Who dresses the best in the series? ♥: FRANCE. I just really love his outfit and his boots, and his blue coat and his red pants. ♥
America/Alfred wants to watch a scary movie! Which one would you pick?: Scary movies, I know none. I'll coerce him somehow into watching 1776 (Look, Alfred, it's all about you singing deciding to not be a part of England anymore!) or Viva Zapata! (Okay, Alfred, so I know it's in black and white, but it's about a true Mexican hero!) or Sahara (Saving the world, getting the girl, and explosions! Alfred, how can you say no?).
How about a favorite ship/couple?: Russia/Latvia, US/UK, France/UK with Canada and US as their adorable children, and unrequited Prussia/Hungary.
AND A LITTLE MORE~
Do you believe in spirits or ghosts?: Yes, but I keep up a tough attitude so they won't try to bother me.
You're at war! Do you take the enemy head-on with full force or lay back and take time to tactically move your forces?: Plans - I love planning. I'll try to foreshadow the enemy's every move, make plans for it, and do my best to fight a defensive war. Of course when they do attack, I'll keep to the bare bones of the plan and improvise where necessary. And, fighting a defensive war, I can pretty much blame anything that goes wrong on my enemy to raise patriotic sentiments and morale, under which my troops will fight harder. Heheheh!
You have to be transported to a deserted island! Oh no! You're allowed to take three items; what are these items?: Rope, a blanket, and a machete. I can be completely self-sufficient with these items (make a shelter, stave off enemies/wild animals, hunt, make a fire...). I love stories about getting stuck on deserted islands, so I'd probably have a good time.
Please describe how you look or share a picture if you have one: Ah~! I have France's hair, UK's eyes, eyebrows so faint they look invisible, and glasses. :D
Any final words?: I've tried to fill this out based on how I actually act outside of the Internet.
Would you be so kind as to link those surveys you voted on before posting this?: Yessir:

Oh, can I see your vital regions?: Uh... no.
