new intern!
The Basics
Name: Addison (no, seriously)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Location: Massachusetts
Your Weaknesses: Stubborn, perfectionist, occasionally snarky, I expect a lot from other people and get really aggravated when people I work with are not reliable or do not put their full effort into something. I don’t like conflict, so I tend to just put up with stuff, but that will eventually lead to either me being kind of passive aggressive, or some kind of massive blow-out. Shoes. And bad boys, never date them, but…
Your Strengths: People person, absolute perfectionist (it can be good, too), grounded, tenacious, compassionate, level headed, funny, persuasive, confident, fairly patient.
Your Talents: I can always make people laugh, and I have been told that I’m good at calming people down. Also, if it’s necessary, I’m good a putting up a façade in order to get through whatever difficult situation I am in.
Favorites
Favorite Color(s) and why? Red. Because it’s bold, vibrant and strong … and because I can wear it well.
Favorite Place(s) and why? Big cities in general because there is so much culture and grit and history and class and opportunity surrounding you when you are in the city. Specifically my favorites are London, Boston and New York, in that order. Also the beach, especially if the coast is rocky or if it is raining over the ocean.
Favorite Movie(s) and why? Breakfast at Tiffany’s- classic. Pulp Fiction- again, classic. Love Actually- I never get tired of it.
Favorite Book(s) and why? I am a pretty big fan of Immortality by Milan Kundera because the book touches on a fairly epic theme, but, at the same, it is also a very in-depth and compelling character study. Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand is another one of my favorites, because it can be both intricate and blunt, and because I am always amazed by sheer amount of thought in the book. I also feel like she has a very interesting perspective on human behavior and personality types. And there is always going to be a soft spot in my heart for Pride and Prejudice.
Favorite Television Show(s) and why? Grey’s, because the characters are so interesting and real and because I love the chemistry of the whole ensemble. It has a good blend of drama and comedy. Weeds because it is hilarious and it seems honest. House because Hugh Laurie is amazing and snarky, and I love the medical cases. How I Met Your Mother because I love Barney. The Sopranos because you really should hate Tony but you just can't, the show had such interesting characters and so much, I don't know- force, that I got hooked. I just started watching Nip/Tuck, which I love because it is just plain twisted.
Favorite Food(s) and why? I really like Mediterranean food, and my favorite comfort foods are grilled cheese and tomato soup.
GA Related
Which character (no matter how obscure) would you like to be your best friend? Why? Bailey, because she’s funny and hard nosed. And Izzie, because she’s fun and girly and sweet. I would need an Izzie to balance with Bailey.
Which character would you like to be involved with romantically? Why? Burke, because he puts effort into his relationships, and he is open, driven and intelligent… not to mention sexy, musically talented and a good cook. Or Mark, like I said…the bad boy thing. Plus, he traveled all the way across the country to try and get Addison back.
Which relationship would you choose out of those on the show? Why? I guess Burke and Cristina, because they fit each other… and because they dance.
Digging Deeper
If you knew that you were going to die tomorrow, what would you do?Get all dressed up and fly to London with a few of my best friends. On the plane trip there I would call everyone that matters to me and tell them why I love them and thank them for everything that they have done for me, even if it was something very small. Then I would call the people that I know that I have hurt in any way and sincerely apologize (even if I had tried it already) and wish them the best. In London we would spend the day in art galleries and museums, and just walking around the city (maybe a quick trip to the ocean). Then at night I would want to just go out with my friends and see what would happen.
