It's All About YOU
Name or Nickname: Laura
Gender: Female
What do you LOVE?: I love pathology, psychology, physiology, philosophy, studying about said subjects, and reading in general. Despite that, I'm a lazy-ass student who never studies what she's supposed to study. Forget school, I'm all over other subjects. I'm also fond of sunny days, the beach, and doing things at my own pace. Then there's always the generic anime/manga/videogames answer, and I also like horror movies, d20-based RPGs (D&D, Call of Cthulhu, etc), graphics, and I'm a very bad person who's fond of hard liquor (no, I don't go out and get drunk every weekend or something, but I have been known to mix myself a nice drink on occasion). I also love teasing people and messing with them--that's what most of my interaction with others consists of. Oh, and SLEEPING.
And what do you HATE?: Loud noises, mainly. Bright lights too, I guess. I'm also not too big on being told what to do; I like doing things my own way. But, for the most part, I'm fairly tolerant.
Strengths: I'm intelligent, logical, and for the most part, mature. Others often come to me for advice, since I'm honest, and I apparently do give good advice (I've had many describe it as a "much needed figurative slap in the face"). So I suppose I'm a good mentor, though I have no idea why someone would be so crazy as to come to me for advice. I also know when it's time to be serious; although I tend to tease those close to me and I enjoy giving them a hard time, I know when it's time to stop and get the job done. I'm also very much in control of my emotions; I may get irritated or annoyed, but I rarely explode with anger or break down crying (the latter even less common than the former). My friends also describe me as "fatherly", even though I'm female. But I guess I'm one of those fathers who says "suck it up" when there are hard times, teases their kids, and then otherwise neglects fatherly activities. I'm a bad father.
Despite all that, I don't exactly act all that "mature" or "mentor-like" or what have you. I'd rather goof around with the rest of the kids rather than be the responsible adult. I'm probably far too easy-going for my own good, but I still manage to get things done, so there you go.
Weaknesses: Teasing is a big negative, with me. While some enjoy my wry sense of humor, my sarcasm, and my somewhat degrading remarks (or I can only assume, as my high-school yearbooks were always plastered with phrases like "I loved your dry sense of humor in Biology class!" or "Your sarcastic remarks in history never failed to amuse me!"), others don't. Mainly those who they are directed towards. I sometimes wonder if people only said those positive things about me because I'm intimidating (or so I've been told) and they're just trying to get in my good graces. It actually came as a bit of a shock to be told I was scary like that; I always thought I was just being normal and stupid.
I'm also a fairly logical person, and I tend to put logic before emotion. This makes expressing myself emotionally awkward, at times, as well as connecting with people.
I'm, more or less, a callous jerk who finds amusement in others' misfortunes, at times. But I've also been called "cute", so I guess I'm pretty cute about it. Though I honestly have no idea where that "cute" thing comes from.
Hobbies: Reading, drawing, teasing, graphics, sleeping, doing nothing of importance.
Favorite Color: Blue, purple, and gray~
What is your favorite food?: Risotto~ And Bailey's Irish Cream I also like cheese a lot. So cheesy risotto is A+.
Favorite Country (without taking Hetalia into consideration): Well, I've lived in Germany, and I must say, it is lovely. I wouldn't mind visiting again~ And the inexpensive ice cream is a plus. It also has an interesting history. I like Greece as well--good food and beautiful weather and scenery, and I find Russia interesting, from a historical standpoint.
Mature or Childish?: I'm mature, but I act childish. I know when to get serious, but for the most part, I like to have fun and goof off. It's possible to be both, right? Right?
Would you prefer to lead or follow?: I'm a leader, but I'm the asshole who makes others do their work for them.
Let's Talk HETALIA
Favorite Character and WHY: Russia~ He's so cute! And he also cracks me up. Scaring others shitless? Now that's my kind of humor. And I like Spain, too, since I've lived with my very Spanish grandmother most of my life, so a lot of the cultural references really amuse me.
Is there a certain strip that really sticks out for you?:
This one.Though in all seriousness, the one where Russia's building the canal.
Hamburgers or Tea OR MAPLE SYURP?: I'm more of a tea fan, myself. Black. Unless it's Ostfriesland tea. That needs milk and sugar.
Who dresses the best in the series? ♥: Man, why are you making me pick? I have a frikkin' uniform fetish or something. But if I had to narrow it down, Denmark, Russia, Sweden, and Austria. Coats are fine, too.
America/Alfred wants to watch a scary movie! Which one would you pick?: OH, HE WANTS TO WATCH A SCARY MOVIE, DOES HE? Man, if only I knew of a really scary movie. I watch a lot, but they don't scare me, so I don't really know what's good or what's bad. Maybe one of those Japanese/Korean/Chinese horror movies (before they were horribly remade). I mean, my favorite "scary" movies are Red Dragon/Silence of the Lambs/Hannibal, but that's more suspense and I'd want to scare the poor bugger.
How about a favorite ship/couple?: Austria/Hungary ♥ Russia/Everyone
AND A LITTLE MORE~
Do you believe in spirits or ghosts?: No, but I won't deny their existence if given proof.
You're at war! Do you take the enemy head-on with full force or lay back and take time to tactically move your forces?: I'm more of a strategist, so I'd lay back and take time. I'd also want all the best weapons, to end it quickly.
You have to be transported to a deserted island! Oh no! You're allowed to take three items; what are these items?: A boat, fuel for the boat, and a machete.
Please describe how you look or share a picture if you have one: I'm at school, so we'll have to settle for a description. I have brown hair, cut short, and it's kinda thick and wavy. My eyes are a brown/cinnamon color, and what my mom describes as "almond-shaped". I'm kinda short--5'4''--and I always look bored/content. I don't look as 'scary'/'intimidating' as I'm told I act.
Any final words?: I LOVE TO SING SHOW TUNES ♥
Would you be so kind as to link those surveys you voted on before posting this?: No ♥
Just kidding
here they are!
Oh, can I see your vital regions?: Sure, but I'd have to kill you ♥ B-but please be gentle~ ;;
