Provide three links to applications you have previously voted on:

I don’t know how acceptable it is to use old ones that you voted on but never supplied as links, but I’ll do that for the moment since I think I’ve voted on like every application here and there’s nothing new to go off of. :’D
Also, this is a reapplication. I was stamped as Makoto the first time, so something different this time around would be appreciated. ♥
Basic Profile
Name: Kuri
Nickname(s): Kuroi, Inu
Age: 18
Zodiac sign(s): Cancer, Horse
Personality
Strengths: I’m very loyal and enjoy helping others, relatively intelligent, sincere, passionate, an excellent confidant, owner of decent sense of humor and hardworking. I know what it is that I love most and need to protect in life, so that drives me.
Weaknesses: I had/have a very poor/abusive relationship with one of my biological parents, so that sort of crippled me socially and self-confidence wise for a while. I moved in with the people who I consider to be my real family on my eighteenth birthday (one biological and one step parent) so since then I’ve been doing a lot better, but I still have a little bit of trouble expressing my emotions sometimes and can become very frustrated over the other parent still… I’m also sometimes have a short attention span (read: I daydream way too often) and I try to change topics when I’m not comfortable with something… but often don’t succeed.
Likes: Anime and manga, animals and nature, bubbles, eyepatches, food, foreign languages, literature, photography, swingsets, and volunteer work. Taking long walks and going to places like parks or the beach with people I care about.
Dislikes: Drama, cruelty, calculus, needles, loud/rude/abusive/presumptuous/alcoholic/neglectful people, sex fiends, my inability to get over issues with that woman, being unable to protect the people that I care about.
Hobbies/Talents: As far as talents… I really don’t think that I’m outstanding at anything in particular. I do enjoy writing, photography, helping others, volunteer work, foreign language, psychology, spending time with loved ones, and music…
Dreams or Goals: I want to be a veterinarian… and to make other happy and be happy myself. Living life without ever hurting anyone else would be nice…
Favorites
Color: Blue and dark green at the moment…
Food: Anything my father cooks, ice cream, rice potatoes….
Animal: I love many of them♥ Wolves, otters, deer, foxes, cheetahs, leopards, cats and dogs are all very high on the list…
Season: I like most of them for one reason or another, but I think right now I favor spring… It’s become a sort of road forward for me, and usually represents the time when things start to pick up again.
Environment or Place: A quiet, natural setting, either alone or with a few people that I’m close with. Far away from big cities and crowds.
Least Favorites
Color: Orange.
Food: Seafood, maple syrups, and several vegetables.
Animal: I’m fond of most of them, really… Little yippy dogs do get old fast, though… and I’m not particularly fond of the diseases that parasites carry, so they aren’t friends either. :/
Season: I don’t outright dislike any whole seasons, but November and February as months both hold a lot of difficult memories for me.
Environment or Place: Cities, crowded places, and places full of hurtful people. Also, as much as certain aspects of my hometown hold sad memories for me, I feel sort of sad whenever I see part of it demolished and developed…
This or That
Optimistic or Pessimistic: Realistic generally, but I waver. When others need support I tend to try and be optimistic, but I can be doubtful of myself sometimes.
Outgoing or Shy: Shy in public, but outgoing around people I know and with regard to my sense of humor?
Mature or Immature: A little of both… I try to be as grown up as I can when I feel that the time calls for it, but I still have my weaknesses and naiveté.
Leader or Follower: It mostly depends on who I'm with. I'm generally a reluctant leader who gives other people the push they need to get started and then leaves things in their hands.
Impulsive or Cautious: It depends on my mood. I'm more likely to be impulsive if I'm happy or very depressed, but in general I try not to do anything really stupid, and I absolutely avoid things that I know will get someone badly hurt.
Related Questions
Who is your favorite KEY character and why?: It’s incredibly hard to choose. I had a large fondness for Mai because she was a quiet but strong person, and I connected with her relation to Sayuri and desire to be a veterinarian… I’m also quite fond of Misuzu for her sweetness and optimism, and because she reminds me of a dear friend of mine, and I relate a good deal with Tomoya and admire his kindness and emotional rather than physical connection with Nagisa.
If you were granted with one wish, what will you wish for?: With regard to the world… to end suffering? Lofty and cliché seeming, but that would be it. With regard to myself... the ability to achieve my dreams without burdening or harming others.
You realize that you will die in the next 24 hours, what will you do during your remaining time?: Run away from my obligations just for that day and spend it instead with the people I love. Do a lot of eating and cuddling and laughing and crying and stupid things and charitable things all at once.
What do your friends and family mean to you?: Everything. Those are two words that I use very sparingly and specifically in my heart, but I know what my little group is and we’re a tightly knit one that’s been together for a while now. Without their support I don’t know if I could have gotten through things as they were.
