NAME: Bindiya
AGE: 22
ASTROLOGICAL SIGN: Gemini
CHINESE ZODIAC: Ox. Moo?
STRONG POINTS: I'm a pretty stand-out personality, and I'm not usually afraid to say what I think or feel on a given situation. I'm also very good at arguing my stance, articulation definitely being one of my stronger suits, and I've been told I have a gift with words and expression. I do get very passionate on certain subjects, and it can run away from me, at times. I consider myself quite clever and witty, though it's only in applications like this that I'll ever actually come out and SAY so, because I'm generally not one to blow my own horn. Unless it's around my friends and I'm feeling fiesty. I have a healthy sense of ego and self-esteem. I pride myself on my looks and charm, and while I'm not really a people-person, I do collect friends and allies fairly easily. I'm honest, more often than not, because being frank and dealing with people point-blank saves the trouble of web-weaving later, and I don't like repeating myself or being misinterpreted. Last but not least I consider myself adventurous, being of the mindset that you should try -everything- twice, because it might not have been done right the first time, and if something smells exciting or entertaining in any form, I'm usually game.
WEAK POINTS: I'm vain. Did we notice with the lengthy list of strong points? ;) I can be arrogant, and overlook crucial details in my rush to get to what interests me, or end up biting off more than I can chew. I'm extremely opinionated and determined, and I do not hold to playing fair; I play to win. I can also be snarky and snide, and at times I just seem to lose my ability to care about what effect my words might have on those with more tender sensibilities. I tend to hold people to my standards of thinking, and if they show any sign of inferiority or weakness, it's hard for me not to see them that way, subconciously, for a long, long time to come. I'm also terminally lazy, and a mad procrastinator, and I'm very much driven by my moods. If I'm not motivated, if there isn't something in it for me that I can appreciate, I'm downright apathetic. I also don't deal well with other people's raw emotions, and tend to draw back when other people open up to me. I prefer living in the now and having a good time than planning ahead, and I tend to forget things in the whirlwind of activity and thought that my everyday life consists of. Drugs and drinking doesn't help much, and I do tend to push to excess on both, when I have a mind to. Sometimes relationships with other people suffer because my mind is focused elsewhere, one of those passions or obsessions that I tend to collect so easily. Obsession is one my biggest issues...I find something worthwhile and lose track of everything and everyone else in my persuit of it. I have a bad habit of shutting feelings in and people out when I feel I have a more worthy task at hand.
LIKES: One-of-a-kind objects and thrift/retro stores, skydiving, things of wit or exceptional cleverness, blowing stuff up, making weaponry/armor at work, my friends, wasabi, aesthetically pleasing things, museums of natural history, jewelery (silver, not gold, please), GOOD quality food, a good story (whether in a book, movie, or word of mouth), roleplaying, celebrating 4:20, alcohol (trust us, we KNOW why the rum is gone), toying with people's heads, culturally unique music (techno irish, traditional Indian, German trance, Japanese rap, etc), exotic weapons, action/adventure/fantasy movies, orchids, flirting, the romantic image of piracy, getting to scare the living hell out of others, and the smell of AXE in the morning.
DISLIKES: Close-minded people, people who stereotype themselves (*cough*emokids*cough*), crybabies, maternal figures, being bored and/or alone, too much neat, order, or quiet (chaos > order), authority figures who take themselves too seriously, the self-righteous, snobs, prudes, bible-bangers, and the ones who keep trying to shut the party down. It never fails. You start having fun and they call in the law enforcement...oh. Don't like them much, either. Or government officials. In fact, they're probably worse.
DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN ONE WORD: Complex.
FAVORITE CHARACTER[S], AND WHY?: Duo! He just seems like a good time, and despite his loud mouth, he's really a sensible kind of guy. He just seems like the sort of guy I'd be friends with, a personality I'd mesh with well, and he's a character type I enjoy playing in rp.
MOST HATED CHARACTER[S], AND WHY?: Relena. Again, basing this off of how well I'd get along with these people in real life, and Relena seems like the sort of girl I'd hold about five minutes of conversation with, get bored, and politely excuse myself to mentally mock all the way out the door. She does a lot of good in the series, and I won't argue this...but gods if I don't cringe every time she opens her mouth for a monologue. Make. It. STOP. Talking.
IF YOU WERE INVOLVED IN THE EVE WAR, WHOSE SIDE WOULD YOU BE ON, AND WHY?: Key phrase is 'if I were involved', because gods know I wouldn't pick sides if it wasn't effecting me in some way. I dream of being an honest coward like everyone else. If there's nothing else for it, though, of course I'll do my part...and I'm backing the Gundam pilots all the way. They've got the right idea...neither side is in the right. Take them both down. Clear the overwhelming scent of bloodlust and insanity from the air. Then talk about peace.
PICTURE DESCRIPTION:
I think the artist did a terrific job of making me look like a royal badass. *grin*
...oh. You want a REAL picture? Okay then.
