My full name? *groans* If you really insist on it. Brandie Foster. If you would, Milkshake is what I prefer. Age? I'm seventeen.
2. Tell us a little more about yourself. What's your personality like? Any bad habits? Any passions or ambitions? Any hobbies? What are your likes and dislikes?
Well, for one, I'm a smart alec. *smirks* I'm the smartass who has to have everything my own way. I'm sarcastic, and I appear uncaring at times. Not all the time mind you. I have a soft and tender side to me, of course, I'm too stubborn to show that side. Only when I'm alone in the privacy of myself do I actually cry, even then I feel awkward. I would say I am a fun-loving person who wants others to be happy as well. I crack horrible jokes just to get at least one small chuckle out of someone. I'm very curious too. Bad habits? Yes. More then good actually. As I see it that is. I live for the moment. In other terms, I think before I act, or speak. This gets me in a lot of street fights with mostly bigger tougher boys, resulting in myself losing. *rolls eyes* I'm not a bad fighter. I'm just, well, shorter, and not as buff as these guys. Plus, I'm a girl, even though that's not an excuse. I actually hold up pretty good. I like to talk, a lot. But, when I don't, I make that clear. My temper is short, but I am working on controlling it. A passion I have, is fighting. And drawing. *blushes* I guess being a lawyer when I grow up would be most suiting, but I'm not too interested in law. I really want to be an artist though.
3. Now it's not like we're blind or anything, but how would you describe your outward appearance?
Are ya sure ya ain't blind? *grins* Alrighty then, I have light brown hair that falls a little bit below my shoulder blades. I have blazing green eyes, that, as I am told anyways, scare the heck out of some people. *shrugs* I'm really not that intimidating, seeing as I'm only 5'3. I weigh a litlte bit under a hundred pounds. Maybe I've passed the 100 pound marker. I haven't checked in ages, not too important to me really. I'm not naturally tan, but since I'm outside a lot, I guess I have obtained one. *smirks*
4. Not to pry into your business, but could you possibly tell us a little about your past?
*Shudders* My past huh? Doesn't everyone like to know these juicy little nightmares we like to call our past? If you must know, then fine. I was born and raised in New Jersey. I would say I was a neglected child. My father was a drunk, and my mother was a prostitute. Funny little twist in my-oh-so-pathetic- story, my father didn't know what my mom was. How he couldn't possibly have figured it out, I'm not sure. Anyways, the good part for all of you. *rolls eyes* As all stories like mine go, my dad found out about my mom, and surprisingly, he was sober when he did it. He was so enraged, that he murdered her the next time he saw her. Within the course of his rage, he went looking for me. I was only five years old at the time, but I was able to hide from him. He never came back to the house, and eventually, I left as well. I lived in the streets, living off of trash for weeks on end. That was until Annalise and Archie Amhearst found me on the streets. We were about the same age, and they brought me to their house, and I lived with them and their parents for 2 years. They never adopted me. *scowls* Even though they treated me like a daughter. *sighs* Two years later, their father ran off, I don't know why. Their mother, *sighs again, and struggles* I don't know why, but, she got angry at Anna for not knowing where their dad went. She, well, in simple terms, she beat her to death. Then, she chased me and Arch out of the house. So far I can classify my life in three stages. First stage: The first five years with my mom and dad, and the two years with the Amhearsts. Up until Annalise died. Second stage: The years I lived on the streets with Arch. From 7 years of age until I was 16. Third stage: I haven't talked about it yet, but it was my time in New York. This stage hasn't ended yet. So, after Anna was killed, me and Archie lived in the streets, working odd jobs here and there. We became really good friends. Unfortunately, he only grew up into a sex-crazed manaic. *looks away from a moment* He raped me twice. He went to jail for that, came back, and then he did other things. I forgave him. He's still one of my best friends. Well, after Arch went to jail for the third time, that's when I called it quits, and I left New Jersey. While on the road, I turned 17. I wound up in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. For awhile I lived on the streets, and then an elderly couple took me in. I got fed up with them and their rules and regulations for me, that I left. And now, I'm here. *shrugs and sighs* Glad that's over.
5. Do you have any living family members? If so, do they reside in New York?
*Thinks silently, running a hand through her hair* I should hope I have no living family members. I would hate them anyhow. I may have a grandmother, and I never did find out where my father ran off to. Maybe if I'm lucky, he died. *shrugs* None in New York, no.
6. How about relationships? *Grins* Got a sweetheart or anything? Tell us a little bit about your significant other, or the one you admire from afar. *Wink*
*Blushes and nods* Yes I do. I'm a lucky one. The kid's name is Racetrack Higgins. He's a fiesty little Italian gambler. We're really good friends, which is good. According to him, I'm complicated, and I'm too difficult, so he ends up 'taking little breaks' from our relationship, even though we constantly talk to each other. But I still love him *grins*
7. Why did you decide to join our Second Heaven Community?
To be honest, I needed a place to crash. Plus, it looked inviting, and being the curious person I am, I had to see what it was all about. And, I was tired of living on the streets.
