~The Basics~
Name: Cheylyne
Nickname(s): Chey (usual), strawberry, moofie
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Do you have a preference for the gender of the character you will be voted as? None at all! Any gender is fine.
Likes: Reading, classical music, photography, going for walks, history and foreign cultures, lilacs, cats, when the leaves change colour in autumn, feeling loved, the elderly, nice people, comedies, movies, having things in common with others, learning languages, joking around, gardening, traveling (which I've yet to do much of.. but hope to!)
Dislikes: Angry people, Immature comments, getting low grades, horror movies (I can get easily spooked, haha), unreliable people, liars, pollution, ridiculously cynical people, mathematics, hot weather, feeling unwanted, in-your-face atheists, being far from the ocean, most dogs, animal/child/spousal abuse, ignorance without the wish to remedy it, rap/R&B music, cruelty.
Fears: Fire, being up high and unable to come down (I tend to freeze in a panic..)
Goals/Dreams: I would really like to make friends, and become a better cello player! Career wise, I'd like to study in botany and floral arrangement and maybe take a few years in music school.
Talents: I'm not quite sure, actually! I think I'd feel somewhat full of myself if I listed my "talents." I have high standards for myself, so to get to that point to call them talents... I don't know. I hope to honestly feel that I do have it for some thing, some day.
Hobbies: Gardening, playing cello, reading, going for walks.
Strengths: I'm told I have a calming presence. I care a lot about people, and other living things and feel a great deal of empathy. I have a good ear (musically), and I enjoy making others feel happy. I am able to apply myself to things that interest me and go through with tasks that I have, or others, have set for me. I am honest as well, and if I ever do tell a white lie, people can tell right away.
Weaknesses: I am a shy person who is most often quiet, unless I know the person well (then I will joke around with them and talk much more, and open up.) I'm a perfectionist that can be self critical to the point I'll feel ill.When I am feeling down or left out, I tend to withdraw away from people. I can also be quite defensive sometimes when the topic is something dear or sensitive to me, and am bothered a lot by certain noises.
~Personality~
Shy or Outgoing: I am shy. I don't think I am or ever will be particularly outgoing unless I am drunk.
Calm or Energetic: I am calm the majority of the time. When I get energetic, it's usually when I am very excited over some thing!
Controlled or Impulsive: I'm generally very controlled. I have a lot of self discipline for myself and can control myself. My only issue is not sleeping early enough, though.. that's my bad habit.
Pessimistic or Optimistic: I can say that I am most definitely an optimist. Hope is what gets me through my day. If I was pessimistic and cynical, I honestly don't think I could do it. I feel it's important to stay hopeful as often as you can. Of course there are bad days, but I'm grateful that I am not always pessimistic.
Decisive or Indecisive: I spend a long time when I decide things. Sometimes too long. I am very thorough. I can say that I am decisive, but only after I've thought it through. If somebody were to ask me while I was thinking, I may seem indecisive because I am trying to weigh to pros and cons.
Mature or Immature: For the most part, I think I'm a fairly mature person. Especially in most of the choices I make, I can say that I think it through in a mature way. Of course I enjoy having a little childish fun once in a while, though! Life would be boring without that.
Messy or Clean: I keep myself very clean. And a few years ago, my room was spotless at all times. Now, though? It always looks like a tornado hit it during the night. My room is nearly akin to a teenage boy's room these days. Ack... xD;;
Leader Or Follower: I suppose you could say I am a follower, but when I have my own ideas, I will attempt to have them heard if I feel they can contribute.
Night or Day Person: I'm a night person! I love the silence that the night brings, and how beautiful the moon is. I also enjoy how it cools down in the night, because I dislike heat a lot.
Indoors or Outdoors: Indoors, unless I am around nature. In that case, I would say outdoors since I love to go hike trails and similar things. :)
Your Overall Personality In Three Up To Six Words: Gentle, Good-hearted, Musical
~Favorite/Least Favorite~
Color:
Favorite- Sage green
Least Favorite - purple
Food:
Favorite- Pumpkin pie/tortellini pasta
Least Favorite - Pickles / milk
Animal:
Favorite- Passerine type birds
Least Favorite - Sharks
Host Club Member And Why:
Favorite- I know I may sound very unoriginal.. but.. Tamaki is my personal favorite! I think he quite a scene stealer (though it is hard not to be, with that kind of flamboyant personality.. o_o) Tama makes me laugh, and I like that he is so golden hearted. He could have easily been made to be stereotypical and bland, but some thing about him-- maybe his childishness as a main point-- makes him feel fresh and likable, to me.
Least Favorite - (meaning not necessarily the hated one, just the one you least favor or the one you would least like in real life): Hm.. It's hard to say. While I like the twins, maybe being pranked and teased often might drive me crazy.. a little. But, I like them in the series, I just don't know if I'd get along with them in real life.
Non-Host Club Member And Why: (meaning those that aren't actual members of the host club.)
Favorite- Haha, well.. Nekozawa's appearances are grand. He sticks out like a sore thumb in contrast to the host club members, and I think that's one of his peculiar charms.
Least Favorite - I don't really like Renge very much. She's just a little bit too obnoxious for my tastes... but I suppose she has some good scenes.
Favorite Quote(s):
"Emotions are very simple. I don’t find them complex at all, to be quite honest. The girl who got laughed at, or the girl who was laughing at the girl: You’re one or the other, my friend. Or there is one other option: You’re the girl who’s trying to divert attention so you don’t get laughed at, and you’re trying to stay friends with the girl who’s laughing at the other girl. That’s where I was; I think that’s where most girls are. You’re trying to stay friends with the girl who’s laughing at the other girl so you won’t become the girl getting laughed at. That’s cowardice." -Tori Amos
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success." --Ralph Waldo Emerson
~Questions~
How would you describe yourself? I would describe myself as passionately curious. I love learning new things. I feel I am a caring person, but may be a bit too self critical.
How do people usually describe you? Quiet. I wish more people would try and get to know me. But my family thinks I am good hearted, naive, and creative.
If you could change one thing in the world, what would you change? I'd have everyone driving vehicles that are powered by something that doesn't ruin the environment, but also smells like vanilla!
If you could change something about yourself, what would it be? I'd change my lack of ability. I'd like to have at least one thing I am very good at. I think it would boost my self confidence, too, if I was able to. I'd like to say to somebody, "this is what I can do, see?". That would be a nice feeling.
Put yourself in Haruhi’s position when she accidentally knocked over and broke the vase. How would you react to breaking it and being forced to become the Host Club's dog in till the debt (of ¥8,000,000) was paid off? My gosh. I am very sympathetic to Haruhi for this. I suppose I would ask them to go easy on me? Please forgive me? It would be difficult. I'm not sure what I'd do.
~Last Three~
Include A Picture Or Describe Yourself: Here are some photos! Sorry for the odd sizes.
Anything Else: (anything at all? maybe you have more to tell us more about yourself that you don't thing you covered well enough?) I can't think of anything... :)
