The Basics
Name: Maia
Nickname: ...Maia. Sele, Cate, Seph, Nix, Tish. But Maia will do.
Age: 19
Gender: Female

Personality
Likes: The sweet and the fluffy. Donuts, pastries, cakes, candies, chocolates. Books. Drawing random doodles on the side of my notebook in the middle of Physics. History! English. Utter randomness. Taking long walks in the evening. At least, when I was in Europe.
Dislikes: Backstabbing. Being hypocritical [although I'm rather hypocritical myself]. Math. Hot climate. Doctors, but for a very, very different reason from most people. Being woken up at such an ungodly hour. Late people with lame excuses.
Hobbies: Reading, writing, sleeping. Yes, sleeping is a hobby now.
Talents: Pointing out loopholes. Make sane and rational arguments. Speed-reading.
Ambitions/Goals: Ambition - Diplomat, although I hardly have the qualifications of a diplomat. Goals - to become rich! People say it's a rather selfish goal but I'm just being practical.
Strong points: Leadership skills. Organizing things, directing people, making decisions. I'm very goal-driven despite my happy-go-lucky outlook. I'm also really focused on the things I do, especially when they are of high importance. People also say that I give good advices. Which, more often than not, do not work on me.
Weak points: I have the attention span of a five-year-old when I am not interested. I easily lose my temper even over the smallest of things and is really tactless and sarcastic during that time. I'm also not much of a people-person. While I do like standing in front of crowds and getting along with others, I usually stick to my comfort zone or around people I know for a long time. I'm also proud and I have this thinking that it's criminal for me to lower myself too much. I'm very clumsy and I'm pretty much slow when it comes to jokes. Like you could tell me a joke and it would take me a looooooong time to realize that it's actually a joke.
Your personality in 3 words: Contemplative, happy-go-lucky, cynical.

Mature/immature: Mature in front of people I hardly know. Immature and loud and utterly random, mostly, in front of familiar ones.
Outgoing/shy: Outgoing, yo!
Graceful/clumsy: I'm graceful [at least, people say] when I'm wearing heels. I'm a complete klutz when wearing flats. I would seriously trip over my own feet.
Optimistic/pessimistic: Er... realistic. I can't say optimistic or pessimistic as is. They vary mostly as to how I view the situation.
Leader/follower: Leader. Leader, leader, leader. While I would settle as a follower if the appointed leader really is competent, I'm a bit competitive.

Favorite
Color: Pink. Not the bright one but the pale pink/ And white, if that's considered a color.
Animal: Cat.
Food: Anything sweet. See above.
Scents/smells: Something soft. Waterlily and Magnolia.
Fairy tale: The Seven Swans? I forgot the title of that story but it's a fairy tale, yes. It's the story where there were seven princes who were turned into swans and their sister was sent to make clothes of them made of thorns? I forgot the title of the story but that was basically it.
Princess Tutu character, explain: Rue. She's the most complicated character I have seen. Her character developed well [even though, it seemed forced at the end] with her personality wavering from nice to evil then back to nice. A character with a rather twisted personality [even if it disappeared near the end] is always nice to dissect once in a while. And no, there is no malice intended there.

Least Favorite
Color: Neon green.
Animal: Chihuahua. I like dogs, don't get me wrong. We have three shih-tzus and one pomeranian. I just don't like chihuahuas.
Food: Too spicy.
Scents/smells: The mix smell of disinfectant, floor polish and flowers in the hospital. One reason why I hate the hospital.
Fairy tale: Snow White. Or Cinderella. Or Rapunzel. Or those with damsel-in-distress-type of stories with happily-ever-after endings. There's nothing wrong with fantasy and all that and I do think that it might be good for one to not lose hope in finding happiness at all. But sitting around, you know, waiting for the prince or the fairy godmother to assist you, it won't happen in real life. I'm being too realistic, I know. It's the fault of my course, I'm so sorry.
Princess Tutu character, explain: The bookkeeper guy who nearly killed Fakir. I do understand their sentiments to stop him from writing and let the story simply continue. But I dislike him because (1)it kinda has an underlying meaning to me, like halting creativity and that sort of thing and (2)the fact that he simply lets himself be drawn away by the current of the story. He doesn't want anything to be changed. He doesn't want to risk anything. I know it's playing safe but being neutral [or at least, thinking that way] isn't really helping anyone.

Questions
Have you ever taken ballet lessons? How did you find the experience? No. I'm too clumsy to dance, much to the disdain of my mother. She wanted me to join a class when I was young but I couldn't dance at all. Which gave my father a reason to teach me rifle marksmanship. Which is now a completely different story.
If you find out that the only way to save the one you love is to disappear into a flash of light, what would you do? It would depend on the situation, I guess. It's not being selfish or whatever. But taking into consideration how long I've known him, how much I know of him, my understanding of my feelings, if I do love him [and it's not just that flimsy emotion or whatever], then fine, I'll sacrifice myself to save him. But there's also the part of sacrificing myself. Would my sacrifice be simply in vain? Would he mind that I sacrificed myself? Would he care? I mean, I believe in unconditional love, sure. But if the person whom I am sacrificing myself for would never give a damn about me disappearing, that's a different case.
If your life were a fairy tale, which would it be (and why?) Hansel and Gretel. There's the whole stepmother thing, except, in my case, it's a stepdad. The witch would be the tradition of my families and I am currently tied down to it and trying to escape. I haven't escaped yet.

Picture (optional -- feel free to just describe yourself if you don't have/don't want to post pictures): I'm Belle's long-lost twin sister! I'm really small for my age. Like 5'. Pale, half-Chinese with long layered brown hair. At the moment, it's straight. But usually, it's a bit wavy near the bottom. I have brown eyes and I usually wear contacts now. I wear glasses before but not anymore, unless I'm reading something several feet away.
