The Basics
Name: Ellie <3
Age: 18
Describe the meaning or significance in your username: Just something I came up with back in my young near-weaboo (hyper but not extreme or hambeast-like ^^;) days, so yeah, it refers to manga characters I don't remember. :B
Favorite color: Greys! (if that counts!), otherwise it'd be orange.
Do you give orders or simply follow what's given to you? I'm actually not the best at sticking to anything that's expected of me. I see rules as important for regulation, but also, things that need to be broken from time to time! People need to find their own method and purpose, even by screwing up. :) Plus I can't stand authority figures that abuse their control.
I'm not very demanding. :)
Is the glass half full or half empty? Oh my god- it's half empty, half full, half full of h2o and half filled with air, or maybe it's just forever debatable. :)
Your favourite drink is? Straight up water. :B or maybe a rum n' coke or milkshake from time to time.
Smoking. Yes or no? Naw.
Scraping the Surface
What are your interests? Culture and human nature, travel, music and making music though I wish I could sing orz, fashion, downtown big-city life, criminology, culinary related things, discovering new interests, humanitarianism.
What are your pet peeves? Pretentiousness. D: plus any kind of ignorance and/or racism, sleeping in too-hot rooms and those who chew and talk at the same time. D:
What are your hobbies? Special talents? Reading, to be honest! besides that, I love to travel and explore, and I play the sweet sweet guitar. (Don't judge me based on this! D;)
Your strengths lie in… and why? Compassion and understanding, if I have to pick something good about myself! I try to feel what others go through as much as possible. I'm an idealist on the inside! Like everyone, I get selfish from time to time, but the feelings of others are very important to me. I also try hard to motivate people and support them; if someone needs a hand or a shoulder to cry on, I always try to be there in some way. I'm pretty awesome with kids (apparently), and love to go out of the way to do things for people I care about I'm also pretty determined, especially towards what I want to accomplish in the future.
Your weaknesses are… and why? Well, I'm pretty emotional in the sense that I'm pretty short-tempered and impulsive. ;-; I can end up thinking only about myself in some situations, for example, if I'm hurt or agitated. I'm overly friendly to casual friends, but it's really just hard for me to spill my guts and get too close to people. Sometimes, my point of view is a pretty cynical and impatient one, which can lead to me having doubts about my dreams and myself. :\ I'm horrible at speaking like an intelligent person; I can't get my thoughts out in conversation! Forgiving is pretty hard for me, and has been for a long time. :B
Digging a little Deeper
Who do you admire (whether it be fictitious or real life) and why? I admire people that have gone beyond the societies they were living in! People that changed history by stepping outside of the box with revolutionary ideas, like Charles Darwin. :) I also admire those who make sacrifices for the sake of others, anyone! And lastly, my grandmothers, my lil' sis, and my close friends. :)
What do you look for in a friend and why? Someone that can lend a shoulder to cry on and give support, that I can do the same for! I don't care what a friend is like much, as long as they're willing to call me their friend. Just caring people, that love possibilities and opportunities as much as I do. :)
If you were in a rock band, which position would you play and why? Well, I do play guitar! But I'd LOVE to sing or play the drums, you know? Be able to do something out of my comfort zone.
How would your ideal room/apartment look like and why? Only apartments! <33 I hate huge houses. :B I'd love to have a big bed, and slick decorations around my room in some sort of cool theme. The ideal apartment would be comfortable and urban :)
If you were a piece of jewelry what would you be and why? Um wow, I guess I'd be a charm bracelet? I dunno, they change easily and come together and apart as easily.
From the Manga
Who is your favorite character and why? everyone! I can't choose. Miu, Hachi, Shin, Nana O, Ren, Nobu, Yasu, Junko, ahhh. D:
Who is your least favorite character and why? I can't stand Yuri; she's just too disrespectful towards Nana O near the last chapters. C'mon girl. -_-
Your favorite pairing? And why? actually, Nana K and Takumi! he's what she needs, to be honest, and while I love her with Nobu, Takumi can give her the support that she's always wanted. And he'll always come back to her at the end of the night. OH, and Yasu/Miu. Their mutual understanding is so heartwarming. :D
Your favorite relationship? And why? ^above! Also, I loved Nana and Ren, and how deeply they loved each other. Makes me so, so sad just thinking about it.
