Character Interview

Tell me about yourself. My name's Jesse, I'm eighteen. You'll probably find out the rest below.
What is your most important accomplishment to date? I'm not sure, but I like to think that waking up with a smile is a pretty good accomplishment for me. But on a larger scale, probably my eighteenth party.
How would you describe your ideal job? I've always liked to be one of those artsy reporters. In the MX or something, who writes about art and music and secret pizzerias.
What goals do you have? To find a way to be known, even after I've died.
How do you plan to achieve these goals? I have no clue. I'm working on it. I've been thinking of doing something that nobody else has done before. Like in this grass field near my parent's friend's house, some guy, or girl, carved this really cool picture into the stone, just because they could.
How do you personally define success? Being happy with what you've done. You know, achieved what you wanted.
Describe a situation in which you were successful. Again, my party.
What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life? Loads. I couldn't name any 'cause there's so many. Not bragging or anything. My standard isn't all that high.
If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change? Geez, um... I don't really know. I'd work out whatever caused my cancer and try to stop it. But that's pretty unlikely.
Would you rather work with information or with people? People. You can't interact with information.
Are you a team player? I guess, although in a team I'd want to be the leader.
What motivates you? I'm not sure. I've always been motivated. I guess boredom motivates me. And time. Yeah, time is a big factor.
Are you a goal-oriented person? Most definitely.
What do you see yourself doing five years from now? I'm sorry but I can't answer that question.
Where do you want to be ten years from now? Shit, probably six feet under. That scares me.
Do you handle conflict well? Hell no.
What major problem have you had to deal with recently? The same problem I've had my whole damn life.
Do you handle pressure well? Um, depends what kind. Physically, I can but if it's something like a little kid crying I'd be more wound up than them.
What is your greatest strength? My stubbornness.
What is your greatest weakness? My temper.
What were your favorite classes? Why? Technology and PE practical (sport). And Language.
Is money important to you? Medically, yes. Other than that, not a lot.
How much money do you need to make to be happy? I don't.

Logan from Never Sent, Always Thought.

Tell me about yourself. I'm not really sure what there is to say. I'm Logan and I'm living with my boyfriend as I finish off highschool.
What is your most important accomplishment to date? A few months ago I would have said something like my school grades, or that song me and my friends wrote togther, but now it is definately meeting my boyfriend.
How would you describe your ideal job? I simply don't know, it's hard too see past the present really. I want to do something in nursing, maybe with the elderly - it's the only thing I could see myself doing. I don't think I could handle being a Doctor, it's much too gory.
What goals do you have? To live a long, happy life with Ethan. He works so hard to keep me safe, and I want his hard work to be repaid with a long life together.
How do you plan to achieve these goals? Simply by listening to him, and trusting in him to make everything turn out all right. He knows what he is doing.
How do you personally define success? Success? By achieving what you set out to achieve. Though, I suppose if you set out to get an ice cream cone and came back with a tub of ice cream then you haven't technically failed. As long as the end result is the same as what you originally wanted, it's a success.
Describe a situation in which you were successful. My Maths exam last year: I managed to get a B! Though, I ahave been succeeding in most of my subjecs in school, so I guess I'm a bit of a nerd.
What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life? I haven't done anything amazing really, my whole life has revolved around the people who mean th most to me. Before, my friends and now, my boyfriend. Satisfaction can be gained by seeing them happy.
If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change? I wouldn't have made freinds with the same people I did, that's recently turned out to be mistake. But, during the freindship, they were amazing people and I loved them with my whole heart. It hurt to see them go.
Would you rather work with information or with people? People, definitely. Like I said, I want to work with the elderly. They have so much to share with us younger generations: their experiences and wisdom that can't be found in our modern society.
Are you a team player? God no, I dread P.E. with my whole body. It's recently made me "famous" in school, and everyone thinks I'm being abused!
What motivates you? People. I'm a real people person and Ethan, my boyfriend is a rock. He deserves a medal for all the advice he's given me. Basically, his every breath motivates me to keep on smiling, and having fun.
Are you a goal-oriented person? No, not at all. What comes will come, I don't need to set myself deadlines to live my life. If I said that by the time I was thiry I wanted kids, then hit 35 childless and without a lover I'd fel like the crappiest person alive. No, my goal-less philosophy makes me the happy guy I am today.
Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them. I don't have any recent goals, I'm just living life to the full.
What are your short-term goals? Get out of highschool and into the real world. I want away from the whispers of my peers, out to where I can make a new reputation for myself and not have one made for me.
What do you see yourself doing five years from now? Universcity, I hope. But if not, I want to be at last still with Ethan. He's all I can imagine right now.
Where do you want to be ten years from now? With Ethan? Working away at that dream job and maybe raising a few kittens with him.
Do you handle conflict well? No, I hate to see peopl I love fight. It mostly ends up in tears, and the friendship gets torn apart.
What major problem have you had to deal with recently? I lost my friends, and they've taken it really badly. They won't let go of this problem they have with Ethan but at the same time they're ignoring me. Although, one keeps sending me pathetic glances across the school canteen. I know they're whispering about me.
Do you handle pressure well? No - before any big exam I cry at least twice. It norrmally comes out for the better, but I hate the state I get myself in.
What is your greatest strength? My personality: I get on well with others and am very bubbly. Cheering people on comes naturally to me, I'm a great encourager.
What is your greatest weakness? I love people too readily. I give mnyself away to everyone who gets close and I'm running out any for myself.
What were your favorite classes? Why? Maths and Chemisty, because I excell in them. And History too, because I find it really hard but when I get good grades all the panic and hard work is worth it.
Is money important to you? No, I'd be perfectly happy living in a mud puddle as long as Ethan was beside me. I can't say the same for him, he'd prbably spend the whole time moaning.
How much money do you need to make to be happy? Diddly-squat. Though, money for food, water, electricity and a home is worth bonus points.

My name is Patrick Mendell and I want my old life back. I used to have a girlfriend who lived with me in my condo. Had a pretty good job, too.

What is your most important accomplishment to date?
The relationship with my girlfriend lasted three weeks before it ended; and this time, I didn't end it.

How would you describe your ideal job?
Counting money, just for the hell of it. Oh, and the money would be mine.

What goals do you have?
None.

How do you plan to achieve these goals?
By doing nothing.

People. As odd as it may sound, I am a people person. Charisma and good-looks help. Working with information got me fired; more than once. Papers and files kept disappearing. At least the papers that were found were stain-free and neatly handed in.

Depends what the team's supposed to do and what they want me to do.

What motivates you?
Right now? Nothing. Well, yeah, nothing.

Are you a goal-oriented person?
Not anymore.

Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them.
I got promoted because I came in - three months in a row - on time to work.

Do you handle pressure well?
Depends on the situation, but I think I do fine.

What is your greatest strength?
No idea.

Normally? A girl at a bar wearing nice heels. Now? The full moon.

What were your favorite classes? Why?
History. Because it amused me.

Is money important to you?
It was.

Fuck, really? Pour me another drink.

Stella Shaw: I'm Sick and I'm Twisted.

Tell me about yourself. Stella leaned back in the old wooden chair and let her arms dangle.
“What an original question,” she smirked, “My name’s Stella Shaw. I’m seventeen and… bloody hell. Everyone always laughs because this is such a common question, but no one really has a good answer for it. How do you talk about yourself? There’s no simple way to talk about yourself… Ask me to talk about Ava or Alexia or even Draco!” she barked out a laugh and shook her head, “I could do that easily, but discussing myself is something else.”
What is your most important accomplishment to date? She stared up at the ceiling, chewing thoughtlessly on one of her fingernails.
“Passing transfiguration?” she chuckled sarcastically, “No, really. I’m not even sure. I’m insanely average… everything I accomplish is nothing particularly amazing. But it’s okay, average is good. I’m proud of everything I accomplish.”
How would you describe your ideal job? “A job where I’m working by choice. I want to be wealthy enough that if I have a job doing something it’s only because I love doing it. Do you know what I mean? If only I were that lucky.”
What goals do you have? “To be happy?” she scrunched up her face and took a deep breath, “I’m such a downer,” she laughed, “But really, I just want to be happy. I want a home and a family who loves me. I want to be able to handle everything life throws at me, and to have a husband who can help me with the things I can’t handle by myself.”
How do you plan to achieve these goals? Stella stared at the ceiling again and pursed her lips. The interviewer watched her, waiting for a few minutes for her to answer.
“Oh, I heard you,” Stella smiled politely as the interviewer began to repeat the question.
“I don’t think there’s a particular way to work on achieving a goal of that sort… I guess just fall in love and work hard for what I want.”
How do you personally define success? “Happiness,” she answered strongly.
“Success doesn’t necessarily mean you’re high up on the corporate ladder or you’re filthy rich. I could be the Minister of Magic and be the wealthiest person in the world and still be unsuccessful. Of course, money never hurts.”
Describe a situation in which you were successful. “I like to consider my entire life successful. After all, I’m sitting here, aren’t I? I’m in my final year in school, I have amazing friends, I’m doing well in all of my classes, I’m happy, healthy and I have a loving family.”
What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life? “All of my accomplishments are satisfying. I accomplished them, didn’t I?”
If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change? “I think I’m one of the few that would keep my life the same. I’m totally accepting of the fact that I’m not perfect. If I went back to change my mistakes I would never learn from them. What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger.”
Would you rather work with information or with people? “People, I think,” she answered and crossed her legs, “I’m one big social butterfly.”
Are you a team player? “When I want to be.”
What motivates you? “Money, happiness, that unstoppable tug in the pit of my stomach to finish what I’ve started.”
Are you a goal-oriented person? “Sometimes.”
Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them. “I wanted to bring out the more secluded side of Draco. He was always so quiet and closed off. I wanted to hear him talk, not taunt. I wanted to see him smile, not smirk. So I talked to him, I went places with him and did normal things that friends do in an attempt to break down his brick wall.”
What are your short-term goals? “Finish school, look at getting my own flat and finish organizing Alexia’s birthday party, I still have to get music and food…” she trailed off.
What do you see yourself doing five years from now? “Hopefully I’ll be in a steady relationship, having a job and enjoying my life.”
Where do you want to be ten years from now? “Married, I hope,” she laughed.
“Maybe even a child? Who knows?”
Do you handle conflict well? “I think so,” she shrugged.
What major problem have you had to deal with recently? “This surprisingly complicated situation with, oddly enough, Harry. He seems to want to be friends, but I don’t think it’s a good idea. Neither does Ava. I need to figure out this situation before anything else.”
Do you handle pressure well? “I actually think I work better under pressure.”
What is your greatest strength? “I’m marvelous at organization.”
What is your greatest weakness? “I listen to my heart much too often.”
What were your favorite classes? Why? “Potions. It is an art form, and I find it entirely intriguing.”
Is money important to you? “Yes. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. It’s human nature.”
How much money do you need to make to be happy? “Enough to be comfortable. Comfortable is in the eye of the beholder, I do admit. Comfortable to one person might not be enough for another. I like luxury, what can I say?” Stella stifled a smile and stretched out her arms.

Sorry, wrote a comment and didn't completely understand the guidelines. Oops

Tell me about yourself.
"Tell you about myself? It would be easier to just get to know me," she says and chuckles lightly. "But I suppose I can tell you some basics. My name is Jersey Rae, I'm 15. Uh, I have a little brother, Chezden, and I live with our parents. I play the guitar, like really good too." Jersey laughs and shakes her head. "Uh, I draw sometimes. And... you know what, I guess you'll find out anything you need to know during this interview, thing."
What is your most important accomplishment to date?
"Most important accomplishment?" Jersey frowns slightly. "I think of all accomplishments as important, really."
How would you describe your ideal job?
"If I ever get that far, I'd like to live off of my music," Jersey says. "But you know... I won't get that far."
What goals do you have?
"I have lots of goals. I have a list of 100 things to do before I die," Jersey explains, making handgestures that really has nothing to do with anything. "Number one is to get an A in math. Twenty-eight is to adopt a dog. And uh... one hundred is to fall in love, as cheezy as it sounds."
How do you plan to achieve these goals?
"Those that I just mentioned?" Jersey frowns as she thinks. "Well, I guess a bit hard work will do the things. For my other goals, I'll just set my mind to it and do my best. If I won't make it, it's not gonna be the end of the world."
How do you personally define success?
"Success is achieving something you've worked for, no matter if it's small or big."
Describe a situation in which you were successful.
"Uh, well... the fact that I'm still alive is quite the success. Being alive is a success, so I've achieved that success several times. Every time I've gotten back on my feet after cancer bit me."
What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life?
Jersey smiles. "All accomplishments gives me satisfaction."
If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change?
This might be cheesy," Jersey says and laughs softly. "But I don't really think I would change anything. Sure, life without cancer would be great, but I think that in all honestly it has made me a much stronger person."
Would you rather work with information or with people?
"I guess it depends," Jersey says and tugs softly at her hair. "I'll say both."
Are you a team player?
"Yeah, I like to think so."
What motivates you?
"Christobel can always get me motivated. Music also motivates me. I can get through the most boring math homework with music, and it will be almost good!"
Are you a goal-oriented person?
Jersey nods. "Yes, I think it's very important to have goals. I'm finishing a list of 100 goals to finish before I die."
Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them.
"I got to play a gig. It was only a short one, three songs, but it was amazing. I had to ask around quite a bit, and then play them a song to show them I was worth it."
What are your short-term goals?
Jersey shrugs. "I have many. One of them is to teach Christobel how to skateboard."
What do you see yourself doing five years from now?
Jersey looks away, and sighs. "Unless some real badass miracle happens, I'll be dead within a year... So... in five years, I'll be five feet under."
Where do you want to be ten years from now?
"I want tp play music," Jersey says and tugs the hem of her T-shirt. "But as I just said, I'm not going to live that long."
Do you handle conflict well?
"I like to think so, yes."
What major problem have you had to deal with recently?
"I've been a bit depressed lately, after I got the news form the doctor telling me I most likely had between 11 and 15 months to live," Jersey says and bit her lip softly. "I'm getting better though. Christobel is helping me a lot."
Do you handle pressure well?
"In a way, yes," she says. "But in another, not at all."
What is your greatest strength?
"I guess I'm able to look at the bright side of things," Jersey says and tries to smile a bit. "Sometimes it takes a while, but usually I'm able to find at least one positive thing about everything."
What is your greatest weakness?
"My greatest weakness?" Jersey things for a while. "I have a horrible phobia for wasps and bees and all things that will sting you. But that's not my greatest weakness. I don't know what is my greatest weakness. It depends on the day, actually."
What were your favorite classes? Why?
"My favorite class is music and art." Jersey brightens up. "I love anything creative."
Is money important to you?
"It's important in a sense that without it I wouldn't be able to get food, drink, a place to live, the mediction I need, and so on. But I don't think you need to be rich to be happy," Jersey says without a second thought. "You can be the richest man in the world, and yet be miserable, and you can own nothing and be happier than most."
How much money do you need to make to be happy?
"I don't know how much to be happy, but to be saticfied, I need enough to cover all the basic needs plus a little bit extra," she chuckled and ends the interview at that.

I"m gonna do this for Music (dying to write a full length story on here about her, but I want more with her), because of boredom.

Given Name: "Um... well, it's Music Jacqueline Cassandra Lorraine Reese-Turner. My mom loves loved music, so she named me after something that meant the world to her. Jacqueline and Cassandra came from her sisters. Jacqueline came first because she lived, and Cassandra is the sister that died. Lorraine is was her absolute best friend in the world. And Reese-Turner because her and dad weren't married at the time. It's a mouthful, and I'm sure mom does did those things purely because she wanted a memory."

Nickname(s): "Ha, it's hard to get nicknames as a selective mute. Most call me MJ, purely because they don't know which name to call me. I respond to it, anyway."

Appearance:
- female
- twenty-two
- four foot eleven (shit genetics, ok?)
- 100 pounds (I'm fat. I need to lose five pounds. I know it doesn't sound fat, but I'm four foot eleven. It's fat for my height.)
- Um, a sort of weird reddish-brown color? I generally let it fall where it does. It's waist length (not that long, all things considered) and left in curls. Naturally curly, and I hate it.
- This sort of weird gray color that turns blue in certain lights. Average.
- I hate make-up.
- Tomboy, I guess. My closet doesn't have pants purely because they are the demon's work. No, really. They either fit in the dressing room and are too tight later, or don't fit, so you don't buy them. I mostly own skirts, and I tend to wear Chucks with them. I hate looking overly girly.
Race/ethnicity: Um... I was born in Los Angeles... and I look white. But I'm actually one fourth Italian and I think my mom is part Hispanic. But like I said, I look white. No one believes I'm part Hispanic.

Physical abilities/limitations: Let's see. I can do gymnastics, but I'm scared of crowds. That's not good, since my mom is pretty well known. Bitch had to go and be the lead singer for this band, then finally crack under all the pressure and off herself. I can sing thanks to the talents from both my parents and the best friends, but I hate singing in front of people. I can play guitar, and drum. I learned how to play guitar from my dad, and drum from his brother. But like I said, I'm not a performer. So all of this is pretty much a moot point.

Background

FAMILY

Religion: Ha. Like my parents ever gave a damn about religion.

Place of birth: Los Angles, California.

Place and time of story: Let me check the calender. It is most definitely 2009, and last I checked, I'm still in California. Thought I wish it was during 1969. Yes, so I can giggle at the year.

Parents' profiles
- race/ethnicity: My dad is part Italian and part Greek. I know it makes no sense. My mom is was Hispanic and part Caucasian. My step-mom is the same.
- socioeconomic level: Fucking rich. Between the hotel and the fact that both my parents are famous, we're rolling in the cash.
- religion: Ha ha ha. My mom once was obsessed with Wicca practices. But that interest faded after I was born. Figured. My step-mom once was Catholic, but that also faded away.
- habits: My mother had this thing where she'd complain, but not complain. I don't know how to say it, but it was annoying. And when she was nervous, she'd play with her sleeves. I don't know about my dad. He's too busy with the hotel and tour. My step-mom tends to air drum when thinking.
- quality of relationship with me: My mom, until she died, was super close to me. I think it would've been better if she left me alone. Then I wouldn't have cared so much that she died. My dad, I barely know him. My step-mom, she's nice, but she tries to hard.
- living/deceased: Mom is dead. My dad's alive, but he might as well be dead. My step-mom is still very much alive.

Brothers/sisters/significant-other relatives (profile each)
- race/ethnicity: I think Lorraine is an albino. No, wait, she isn't. She definitely has green eyes. Albinos have red or pink eyes, right? I'm too scared to ask.
- socioeconomic level: I grew up around rich people.
- religion: None.
- habits: I really don't pay attention.
- quality of relationship: Pretty good. We see each other a lot.
- living/deceased: She's alive.

Family structure/life:

BRIEF LIFE STORY

- No story yet

- What was growing up like for them?
It was nice, believe it or not. People cared, or at least, acted like they cared. I didn't talk much, and I still don't talk much. You can't really expect me to have a perfect childhood, but it was nice. Then, my mom committed suicide. She left a note address to me. Just me. About how she was so sorry, and how she loved me, but everything was just so hard. She apologized to dad, too. But she also told Aunt Jackie to marry dad, that it could be good for them to explore "it", whatever "it" was. I guess in a way, that made me want to talk even less. I guess that's why I don't talk.

- Did they have a good or bad childhood?
Neither good nor bad. It was, like I said, an OK childhood.

- What struggles have that had, or hardships they have overcome?
No! None at all! My mother committing suicide was a fucking walk in the park! Watching Aunt Jackie and dad marry wasn't weird at all! Everything was fucking perfect! What do you think, dipshit?

- Has their life worked out like they expected?
Absolutely. It's my dream to be stalked by paparazzi who ask about my mom dying and ask if my dad was cheating on my mom. It's my dream to have panic attacks from the publicity of my life. It's been a childhood dream of mine for people to tell me I'm going to hell for loving another woman. Not.

- Has their life been difficult or easy until now?
Hahaha, yes. Everything is so easy. Can we stop with the stupid questions now?

- Were they forced into their current path, or are they here by choice?
... Apparently not. Yes, I chose to be famous. I chose to be born in a famous family. I chose for people to judge my relationship with Avery. I chose for all of this to happen. Not.

- Do they have regrets?
Hell no.

- What special circumstances have made them into who they are today?
Everything. I don't think I'd change a thing. Even if it could make my life easier.

- Did anything happen in their past that they cannot forget or live down, or that has deeply changed them or scarred them in some way?
My mother dying. I remember her body, hanging from the ceiling, lifeless. It was just horrible, and I doubt I'll ever forget it.

PSYCHOLOGY

Outer Goal (physical):
I want to marry Avery. Eventually. But at the same time, it would be lovely if people stopped judging our relationship and let us get a paper that says we love each other.

Inner Goal (psychological/emotional):
To stop being so mute. If I weren't mute, I'd be able to speak up. Well, I'm not mute, but a very a selective mute. Avery is one of the few people who have heard me talk.

Defining characteristic: Some people say the fact I don't talk is very defining. But I don't know. I have a lot of them.

Hopes/desires: To marry my girlfriend. To be able to perform with my band for once. We've only done recordings. I want to drum in front of people without fear.
Fears/phobias: the limelight, spiders and I avoid pants and mirrors out of fear of what I'll see, love, trust
Dirty Secrets: I blame myself for my mother committing suicide. If I wasn't such a bad daughter, she might still be here.

Introvert or extrovert?: Introvert

More thinking or feeling?:

What do you see is the biggest contradiction(s) your character lives out?: I fear love and am in love. I hate being too trusting and yet, I trust Avery.

Tends to be self centered? Selfish? Selfless?: I'm very selfish and self-centered. I hate it.

Favorite and hated foods/drinks: I love McDonald's. I hate anything orange. It's just not natural.

Education or important learning experiences: Learning experiences. Fuck education.

Most hated activities: do you want to die here?

Most enjoyed activities: sex, drumming, eating at drive-in diners, watching movies, and playing guitar. I hate a lot of things, ok?

Deepest secret or wildest fantasy: It's a creepy one. I've always enjoyed the idea of being tortured. Being treated like scum. I love the idea of being strangled, being raped, being beaten into submission. But at the same time, I doubt I would truly like it if it happened to me.

Sense (or lack!) of humor: I'm a sarcastic kind of person.

Who is your character's hero, or who do they admire or emulate?
I don't have heroes. They only let you down.

PHILOSOPHY & MORALITY

Attitudes toward:
- self: I'm worthless. I'm not worth getting to know because no one cares. In a sick way, I make others think that. Avery hates when I pull myself down, so it's thanks to her I have more confidence and feel sexier.
- others: People only care if they think it'll serve themselves. Avery, once again, is the only person I can trust. It sounds so co-dependent, and that scares me. It scares me how much I rely on her, because I hate trusting. Trusting leads to getting hurt.
- friendship: You can't have it without trust.
- sex: Only in a loving and trusting relationship.
- love: Bullshit that people make up to make their friendship seem like it's bigger than any other friendship. Love is simply a friendship with sex added to it.
- family: Disposable. Out for only themselves, and they think they can backstab you because you have to stay. Not to be trusted.
- marriage: A piece of paper.
- country: Ha. It's land. Countries aren't real. They're something people made up to validate their wars.
- the world: Fucked up place to be.
- religion: Fake.

Political philosophy:
- conservative/traditional/ liberal/radical: Liberal
- public causes supported/protested: LGBT Rights, Environment protection
- politically active/apathetic: active

Superstitions?: That we're all just puppets in some grand master puppeteer's game.

Catchphrase that defines their worldview? (examples: "What goes around comes around." "Live fast, die young, and leave a beautiful corpse." etc.): "Live life the way you want to, and not by someone else's standards."

LIFE & LIFESTYLE

Closest friend(s): Avery
Job/career/occupation: socialite, drummer, DJ's at a club on weekends
- Attitude towards job: I hate everything, why should my job be different?
Noted accomplishments: N/A
- Famous/infamous? Kind of both.
Clubs/organizations belonged to: I hated school, so I didn't go to clubs.

- The death of a loved one: Shock, anger, resentment
- A natural disaster: hurricane/earthquake, etc.: "C'est la vie"
- Being fired: "C'est la vie"

- A serious illness such as AIDS or cancer: "C'est la vie"
- A flat tire on the expressway: "FUCK"
- An interracial relationship: So what? Race makes them less human or something?

I'm Florence Barrett, I'm nineteen and I work at a coffee shop in New York.

What is your most important accomplishment to date?
Finishing high school and moving to New York is the best I could come up with.

How would you describe your ideal job?
Being a painter or an author would be nice.

What goals do you have?
To become a author or a painter and to see my mom without getting in a huge fight about nothing.

How do you plan to achieve these goals?
I guess show my portfolio around? I don't know! That's why I'm stuck in that stupid coffee shop!

How do you personally define success?
To love what your doing and to do something that inspires others.

Describe a situation in which you were successful.
Getting my high school diploma?

What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life?
I guess wanting to be a artist and a writer. I just really want to do something that will really inspire others.

If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change?
I guess starting college when I was supposed to. I could of been in school and looking for painting and writing jobs. Instead I'm working at a coffee shop and getting money from my mom every three weeks.

Would you rather work with information or with people?
I guess it depends. Sometimes working with people can be a good thing, but then something happens and your screwed, she screwed, and then we all end up screwed. That's just not working for me. You know what, I rather be with information.

Are you a team player?
I can be, as long as the rest of the team is a player as well.

What motivates you?
My best friend Constance and my co-worker Ryan, and man can he draw.

Are you a goal-oriented person?
Sometimes, it depends on what I really want.

Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them.
Getting my high school diploma, I achieved it because I did well in school. Oh, and I also met Chris Martin, the lead vocalist of Coldplay, but I was just at the right place at the right time. [Smirks]

What are your short-term goals?
To read 10 books in 15 days. Which gives me 1 and a half days to complete each book. And I really want to learn how to play a banjo.

What do you see yourself doing five years from now?
I see me doing painting as a career and writing as a side job. You know I really talked about writing and painting a lot. [Laughs] Guess you know what I really love to do. [Laughs again]

Where do you want to be ten years from now?
Be successful and happily with someone or even engaged.

Do you handle conflict well?
I, well...you know. Okay, I'll tell the truth, I cannot stand conflict. I don't want to be in it, I want to be around it and I don't want to deal with it. That's it.

What major problem have you had to deal with recently?
[Chuckles] My mother. Have I mentioned she's crazy?

Do you handle pressure well?
Hell yeah. I can handle it so well I got voted Least Likely to Get Pressured in high school. [Laughs] That was a joke.

What is your greatest strength?
I have good self-confidence, I'm a hard worker, and I can be really determined.

What is your greatest weakness?
Well, I can be a little egoistic when it comes to competition and I can be inpatient.

What were your favorite classes? Why?
Creative writing was fun, but only because I love to write. I also liked chemistry and visual arts. Chemistry was fun because our teacher was really funny, and I like art because I want to be a painter.

Is money important to you?
Not really, but it sure does help to have some living in New York. [Smiles] By the way, that's advice to everyone.

How much money do you need to make to be happy?
Enough not to feel stressed. I know everyone says "None. I got all I need here." or whatever. But really? You may have family and friends, but you are going to be stressed and tired from working just to get food and keep your house. And you know you would not feel amazingly happy then.

Lily from 'Look Alive Lily-Pie' which is currently waiting to be posted.

Tell me about yourself.
My name is Lily Hannah-Joy Anderson. Lily is after my mother's favourite flower, Hannah after my grandmother and Joy after my mother. I am twenty four years old. My birthday is January 1st. I have small feet, I wear a size 34 in European sizing and I'm five foot, three inches tall. Shoes are almost impossible to come by, it's silly. I live in California, I would tell you exactly where but to be honest I'm not too sure, I just know it is California. Until about eight months ago, I was engaged and had been for almost eighteen months but my fiance never returned from a mission and they decleared him dead.
What is your most important accomplishment to date?
There isn't really anything of importance. I used to be engaged until he was decleared dead. I guess getting pregnant is my biggest accomplishment though I didn't really do anything.
How would you describe your ideal job?
My ideal job would be a journalist or a writer, but in the currently climate it is not possible so I spend my days skating and shooting bad guys.
What goals do you have?
I don't really have goals. The goals I did have, left with my fiance. I had a goal eight months ago which was try to get myself killed when I joined the Killjoys but it's not happened. The only goal I really have is to be a mother to this baby when it is born, I want to say she but I don't know yet.
How do you plan to achieve these goals?
I have no idea.
How do you personally define success?
As being happy, when you have been successful you tend to be happy.
Describe a situation in which you were successful.
I don't think I have ever been successful, unless you include the day I skated 45 miles in one day. My legs ached so much afterwards.
What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life?
Finding out I was pregnant and when I got engaged to Frank.
If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change?
I would have stopped Frank going on that mission. He'd still be here if I had never let him go.
Would you rather work with information or with people?
I'd rather work with people. I get on better with people than computers. Just my luck that almost everything in done on computers.
Are you a team player?
I'd say I am, though some people would probably argue that I'm bossy.
What motivates you?
I'm motivated by my desire to change the way the world is. To stop Better Living Industries controlling our lives.
Are you a goal-oriented person?
Not really. I'm living one day to the next at the moment.
Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them.
I'd rather not because I don't think there are any worth any merit.
What are your short-term goals?
To live.
What do you see yourself doing five years from now?
Bringing up the baby, hopefully happy.
Where do you want to be ten years from now?
Bringing up the baby. Happy. Possibly married, though there will never be anyone who loves me or I love as much as Frank.
Do you handle conflict well?
Not really. First time we were over run with guard and dracs, I hid behind the car crying.
What major problem have you had to deal with recently?
Dracs, guards, morning sickness. Three grumpy men. I'm still recovering from losing Frank.
Do you handle pressure well?
Not at all. It's the same with conflict.
What is your greatest strength?
I would say my greatest strength is probably my ability of getting out of almost any situation. I don't know how I do it, I just must be lucky.
What is your greatest weakness?
I'm a very emotional person. I cry myself to sleep most nights since Frank left. It's worse now I am pregnant.
What were your favorite classes? Why?
I loved English, Spanish and Italian at school. I love languages, my most prized posession is a collection of Italian poems that Frank got me for my 22nd birthday.
Is money important to you?
Money isn't that important to me.
How much money do you need to make to be happy?
Money doesn't make me happy. Having someone loving me back is happy.

Jestine
Tell me about yourself. "Well... I'm average. I'm eighteen. I enjoy a good book, now and again. Just... you know... average."
What is your most important accomplishment to date? "Facing those damn idiots at school! Meeting Ian, Luke, and the others really helped."
How would you describe your ideal job? "Something with animals, perhaps. Or maybe a journalist."
What goals do you have? "Getting through high school and all it's Hellish-ness."
How do you plan to achieve these goals? "By shutting up and dealing with it, I guess."
How do you personally define success? "Success is when you succeed. Just kidding, I think success is when you manage to do something, and are happy with what you did."
Describe a situation in which you were successful. "....well I successfully got myself into a lot of trouble... but I'm not exactly happy with it."
What accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction in your life? "I still have plenty of time to get satisfaction in life. Actually, i'm not satisfied at all right now."
If you had to live your life over again, what one thing would you change? "How I handled things like drama. I would choose my friends more carefully, too.)

Are you a team player? "I guess I am. I try, at least."
What motivates you? "HA! Not much."
Are you a goal-oriented person? "Not really. I barely have goals."
Tell me about some of your recent goals and what you did to achieve them. "....."

Where do you want to be ten years from now? "With a family and a decent job."
Do you handle conflict well? "Nope!"
What major problem have you had to deal with recently? "Too much high school drama. Then too much 'un-dead' drama. So mostly just drama."
Do you handle pressure well? "Not really. I get reckless when I begin to reach my breaking point."
What is your greatest strength? "My logic."
What is your greatest weakness? "My lack of ability to defend myself properly. Verbally and emotionally that is."
What were your favorite classes? Why? History. It's just strangely always caught my interest.
Is money important to you? "Kind of."
How much money do you need to make to be happy? "Enough to survive comfortably enough where I'm not worrying about if I'm going to be able to feed myself the next day or not. You know?"

How do you plan to achieve these goals? "By focusing and working hard, though it shouldn’t be."

How do you personally define success? "When you look around and notice that everything you have is what makes you happy and perfect in your own eyes."
