-FIRST OFF-
Name: SK.
Nickname(s): Well, SK's one of them, but I have others that I randomly get but aren't worth naming.
Age: 17.
Gender: F.
Prefer to be rated as a girl or boy?: Boy, but I'll allow both. As I have read more of the manga now, I've grown attached to many of the characters, male AND female. So either is fine although it might be a little late in saying so >>;;.
-BASICS-
Likes: Anime, manga, drawing, laptops, computers, CDs, my friends and family, working alone, music, dragons, trenchcoats, chocolate, popcorn, internet, roleplaying, money, swords, Japan, icon-making, movies, cosplay, video games, glasses, control over things/power, cartoons, tea, orchestra, violin, track (sprinting), strategic games, Pirates of the Caribbean, the British, Kingdom Hearts, Phoenix Wright for DS, DDR, karaoke/singing, yaoi/shonen-ai, yuri/shojo-ai, hentai, cats, Tales of games, RPGs.
Dislikes: I hate it when I'm incorrect. I also dislike it when I don't know something, because I have this silly urge to know everything. I also hate it when people bug me, especially if I'm working, or when people think my work or whatever the hell I'm doing isn't good enough when I think it is (HAHA FUCK THEM!) or if I'm being ignored purposely. List of other things I dislike: Celery, people who insult my religion, annoying people, stress, insects (especially bees), loud noises, harsh lights, bad grades, aches, illnesses, people suffering, whiners, liars, boredom, overly "happy" songs.
Strengths: I'm usually mature and the voice of reason, unless I'm in a weird mood, in which then I can be quite unpredictable (I've been called a dork multiple times). ♥ I'm pretty responsible, since I'm the oldest child of my family, although I tend to be lazy on things, procrastinating to the last minute (but that's not much of a strength, eheh). I'm calm (but I can overreact at random times) and loyal to my friends/family caring deeply for my friends to the point of protecting them as well as my siblings. I'd never think of betraying them even if they ever betrayed me. I am quite intelligent and do well in school. I'm told to be quite witty. And actually, I'm pretty good at teasing (I like to joke around, but I can also be serious) and scaring people. I'm also a curious person, but know when to draw the line when something gets too dangerous.
Weaknesses: Because I tend to bottle my emotions and can be sensitive at times, I tend to fall into depression easily and worry a hell of a lot, even though I want to appear like nothing's bothering me at all and let things bounce off me. At times I'm very pessimistic, only thinking of the ways things could go wrong and what has gone wrong, but it's only because I don't want to think it's positive when it's really negative and be brought down further than I already am. I can also be slightly cold to some people and quiet, depending on how talkative the other person is (and if I know them well or not). If they're quite social, then I tend to be quieter to balance things out, and if they're less talkative, I want to open them up, so I tend to speak up more, and if on the right topic (such as something I'm obsessed with), I may be chatting for quite a bit. Even though I sometimes appear slightly anti-social and have isolation tendencies, I do have friends, but at times I'm just alone due to my introverted self. I tend to jump to conclusions too easily and am quite the observer, over-analyzing and thinking too much about things...and (sometimes) in the end not getting the correct conclusions. Oh, and I procrastinate a lot, but seem to get everything done on my agenda in the end, no matter how much time I have. I also seem to find the faults in something more than the achievements (just look at my application's strengths compared to weaknesses; my weaknesses are much longer), and would rather have the urge to say something that would improve something rather than a comment on how well a person did whatever they did. Oh, and I like to make sarcastic or smartass comments, although I tend to think of it as "logically pointing things out"...and I hate admitting that I'm wrong on almost anything. I hate defeat. So it's also hard for me to apologize to someone. I get jealous easily. I'm also disorganized (because I find it a hassle to clean my room), but I usually find things nonetheless.
Hobbies: Those are in my "Likes"...but I guess, as this may relate to Genshiken, I love anime/video game figures, cosplay and doujinshi.
Talents: Hmm. Well, I have an uncanny ability to be "the sane one" in a group of people, no matter how crazy they get.
