My full name is Ceira Dietlinde Skeffington. My nickname is Trigger, the only normal name of them all. My age? Well a lot of people tell me that I look older (sometimes younger, depends who they are) for my age. But whether I act my age or not? It generally varies by who says it and why. But yeah, if you must ask I'm sixteen years old.
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?
More about me? Okay sure, I guess that's fine. *looks around* *shrugs* I'm a loud girl and I'm very outgoing. I'm a people person. I love being around people, but I still enjoy some alone time every once in a while. I'm a bit na�ve, which isn't a good thing sometimes. My innocence usually gets the best of me, and I get in trouble. I do tend to be quite the optimist at times. Always believing that the grass is greener on this side instead of the other side. But during hard times in life, I can be a pessimist too; no one can be an optimist all their life. Everyone needs to start losing hope in things, and I'm no different. I'm the smart type. I mean, smart isn't part of my personality, but I tend to believe it is. Yeah I'm book smart, but when it comes to everyday life things, I'm a bit of a blonde. I'm not dumb or anything (not saying that blondes are dumb), but I have my moments. It's kind of embarrassing when you have those moments you want to like kick yourself for being so dumb. But yeah, I can't really help it, I'm just that way. Also another thing about me, I have the attention span of a five year old. Seriously, I have such a short attention span, I'll start speaking and then I'll find something else and I'll drift off forgetting what I was talking about. I tend to do that often. Yeah, and also the fact that I laugh way too much, is a problem too. I tend to be sarcastic and I like to joke around. Sometimes the smallest things make me crack up laughing, that's just the way I am. *shrugs* My hobbies? Well I like to write. Writing is like my life, no seriously. I write anything, journals, diaries, stories, poems, anything. I write all the time, whenever I can. But when I'm not writing I love reading. I'll read anything basically. But mostly I enjoy talking the most. Just being with my friends and things like that make me the happiest person in the world.. I do have a few passions. I'd love nothing more than to be a writer for the rest of my life. Either that or a singer or an actress. Something with stage I love very much. I'm a dramatic person, which most people who have talked to me know. I like drama, I basically am drama. Haha. Yeah so my passion is drama. Okay, I have more likes than dislikes. I like honest people. If you're not honest, then it just makes me mad sometimes. I like to sing, sleep, eat, and just have fun. I like fun people; people who can laugh at themselves for the dumb things they do. If you can't laugh at yourself, then that'll bother me. I like to pick on people for the fun of it. I'm never serious when I do it, but if you take it too seriously then they'll be problems. No I'm kidding. But I don't like pessimistic people. I mean, if everything in your life is so bad (even the good things) then you'll just annoy me. I don't want to sound mean or anything, but if you're a 100% 24/7 pessimist, then I'll go crazy.
3. Now it's not like we're blind or anything, but how would you describe your outward appearance?
*eyes suspiciously* Why? *looks around* Okay, well I have brown hair that's a little below my shoulders. It's sort of curlyish in a way, sort of wavyish in a way. I have blue crystal colored eyes. I'm short for my age, sort of. I'm only 5'3" with a small frame. I'm very pale skinned, being as I'm German and all. In the winter I'm so pale I look like a ghost. I have a lot of freckles in my opinion. I get a few new ones every year which makes me laugh. My favorite one, and yes I have a favorite, is the small one that is barely visible. It's about a millimeter above my lip. That one formed about four years ago...I'm so weird, I know. But this is me. *shrugs* Um, I have small hands for a girl, and small feet too. I guess I'm just really small! Haha. Um, I have dimples too. *smiles* See!
4. Not to pry into your business, but could you possibly tell us a little about your past?
Sure, sure. Most people ask me this question. Well from my name, you can tell I'm not from this country. I was born in Berlin, Germany and I moved over to New York City when I was two years old. I lived with my four brothers and sisters, Mamma and Vati (or Father). We did alright, from what I can remember, until Vati died. He worked in a factory and worked too hard, he was sick with scarlet fever and died. That left Mamma to tend to me and my brothers and sisters. It was really hard because she had to go out and work, and the my oldest sister had to take care of us (she was only 9). When Mamma caught the cholera, she died too. No one knew what to do, we were too young to fend for ourselves and our family fell apart. Everyone went in their separate directions to avoid being caught and put into an orphanage. I never saw them again. See they didn't escape from "das mittel derjenig" or in English that would be "the mean ones". I don't know what happened to my brothers and sisters. They all ran away, as did I. They might have been caught or they might have just been roaming the streets as I did. I really can't say I have any clue.
5. Do you have any living family members? If so, do they reside in New York?
I honestly don't know the answer to this question. If I knew I'd tell you. I hope that my siblings are alive, but I don't know. I haven't heard from them in over 9 years, so I don't have any answers.
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*
*looks away* No...okay okay, you caught me. Yes I do have a sweetheart. Snitch is my knight in shining armor. No I'm kidding, but yeah, we're together. *blushes* Snitch and I have been together for a year, it's, I don't know, serious I guess. I mean, we've been friends since the beginning of time it seemed. Hehe, but yeah. We're together. I really don't like talking about this topic because...I'm just not that big a fan of love and all that stuff. *shrugs*
7. Why did you decide to join our Second Heaven Community?
I chose to join this Lodging House because it was the first one I found. *winks* It was here or out on the streets living in a barrel or something. I mean, to be honest, that doesn't bother me. I've done it for many years before. I hope you'll take me under your wing and you'll accept me. That would be the greatest blessing in the entire world. *smiles*
