my personality ain't the best, but..
...................
THE BASICS
Name: Laura
Age: 19
Gender: female
Current Occupation: uh, jobless? I'll be a student again in the autumn, I do hope so.
...................
THE PERSONAL
Likes: Watching sunsets, taking photos, animals, my friends, Arashi (it is a japanese band), escapism, video games, watching movies, running, cosplay and daydreaming. Old trains and travelling by train, baseball, fairies, pirates. The clothing style of the 17th century. People with good hearts. Dancing and writing, though I'm not good at them. Motorcycles, wolves and flowers, watching people dance very well, getting hugs from important people. Going to a bar with a dear friend.
Dislikes: Being cold, Finland's winter (which is really damn cold), people who don't give a shit about other people. People who push their own opinions on me. Dentists, funerals, studying. Going to sleep. Being late. People nagging at me and making fun of my height (I'm quite short). When nothing goes the way I plan. Thinking about difficult and scary things. Dad and his personality. Stressing about the future. I'd go on, but I think you get it already.
Strengths: I always offer a shoulder to cry on or an ear when a dear friend is in need. I can stand on my own feet and think with my own brain, I have my own opinions, I'm independent and a fairly decent cook. It's easy to get on my good side and put a smile on my face. I haven't got a lot of friends, but even those few, I care for them with all my heart, as do I care about my family too, I'd do pretty much anything for those "chosen few". Uh, it's really hard coming up with these, I really don't know. I'm also very honest and rarely lie, I'm openminded in a way; when I look at people, I can see through the darker skin colour and the objects of their love. When I'm happy, I try to make others happy too. I respect people when they deserve that respect.
Weaknesses: Oh boy.. I can get overly sensitive -> feel weak and then sniffle alone in my room, make terribly sarcastic remarks and be so quiet that one confuses it with rudeness. I don't like the reality I'm in, I feel like I've been born into the wrong century, the wrong time, the wrong world. I'm terrible when speaking about difficult things or expressing my before mentioned opinion, I stumble with my words and can't get them out of my mouth like I'd want to. I'm not a motivated person and I don't know what I'm going to do with my life, so I feel like I'm going absolutely nowhere. I'm not the easiest person to get along with nor it's easy to gain my complete trust. I rarely see myself in a good light and blame things on my weaknesses. Also, handsome older men with brown or blue eyes are definitely a weakness.
Pet Peeves: On a bad day, everything annoys me, but usually.. stupid, inconsiderate people, who complain and do nothing about it. who push their problems on other people. Who discriminate other people based on the clothes they wear and the color of their skin. Please judge people based on what's on the inside, not because of the way they look or who they love.
Dreams & Ambitions: Nothing definite, but I want to be something. I want to be remembered when I'm not here anymore. I want to leave my mark in history (at least into my future family's history). I want to feel happy and loved, publish loads of books that people would love, write things that will make people laugh and cry. I want to travel around the world. I wish there weren't places a human hadn't gone, but anyhow, I'd visit many countries and see many wonderful things this world holds.
Personality in 5 words or less: Sarcastic, melancholic, (usually) quiet, easily annoyed but hides her irritation, dreamer. (curses a lot.)

FAVORITES
Favorite Season: I think spring. When it's not that cold anymore, but not that hot yet.
Favorite Element: Water.
...................
THIS OR THAT
Mature or Immature: Mature, I can get immature when I'm really, really annoyed or just feel like it. It's annoying, though.
Leader or Follower: I don't like to be responsible for other people that much, but I don't like taking orders much either.. I'll pick Leader, especially if my followers do as I say and not complain.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: Definitely pessimistic. I try to see the bright side of life and sometimes succeed, but sometimes I just don't.
Impulsive or Cautious: 80% cautious.
Outgoing or Shy: Not outgoing, but not that shy either. I just don't like socializing.
Hardworking or Laid-back: Laid-back, unless I'm really interested in what I'm working with.
Hyper, Calm, or somewhere in-between: Usually quite calm. I'm only hyper when I'm with my friends and watching a movie, or something.
Modest or Bold: More modest than bold.
Lover or Fighter: Uh, fighter. I know, no, I think I love a lot of things, but it still feels like a distant thing to me. Fighter it is.

SITUATIONS
You really don't like someone and find them in a heap of trouble. Would you ignore their pleas for help or give a helping hand?: Depends on what kind of a trouble. Most likely it'll be the kind of trouble I don't want to get involved with, so I'd go away. (and call the police around the corner.)
When the going gets tough, do you stay your ground by yourself, call for help, or run away?: Usually by myself, but sometimes I just have to call for outside help. I can't do everything alone.
Someone just cut in front of you in the store, when you've already been waiting 10 minutes. What do you do?: Goddammit, no one cuts in front of me. I hate waiting, so I'd tap that person in the shoulder and ask them to move away.
FF VERSE; SHIN-RA is throwing a 'We didn't end up ending the World' Party and sent you a pretty invitation. You go to the party and you: (ie. dance, karaoke, sit in the corner, sulk) Most likely at first sulk in my corner and drink something to get me a little dizzy. Then find someone to dance with and forget everything for a while.
FF VERSE; You're battling with your friends, would you rather be attacking, defending, or supporting? Definitely attacking.
FF VERSE; One of your friends got hurt really bad. You can continue on your mission - but it would mean leaving your friend behind and taking on the next boss with less power. Do you go back to the start to get your friend healed (rest point) or do you keep going on, and try to make it without him/her? I assume it's a friend that I really care about, so.. I don't think I could leave her/him behind without healing him/her.
...................
INSPIRATIONAL
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?: I wish I were stronger in every aspect. Physically, as well as mentally, as in, be more carefree.
Do you hold onto everything in the past, or do you try to move on and learn from your mistakes?: I do try to move on. Once in a while, there's something in my past that I can't get over, until a long time has passed, though..
Are there any traits you've witnessed before in someone that you wish you could have?: Yes.
...................
Is there any character that you strongly would disagree with being voted as?: Mm. Yuffie, I never liked her much and I don't think I'm as materialistic and annoying as her.
