Mikey Quote: "God, I love being a turtle!" --- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie
Mikey is the most carefree person I've ever met.  He's got a great sense of humor, and he always knows how to make others laugh.  He can lighten up the mood in an instant, whether we're at the dinner table or if we're returning from a fight with the Foot Clan.  He's the most emotional out of all the turtles, and he's not afraid to hide his feelings.  Mike's also quite the accomplished writer (I know because he let me read some of his stuff), a very good cook, and a lover of animals.  Most of all, he likes to have fun! Some of his favorite activities include relaxing in front of the TV, collecting comic books, and eating pizza.  Mikey's also the friendliest out of the four.  He was the first one to accept me as a friend, ally, and brother.  I guess he's most famous (or infamous) for being a prankster.  He often gets into trouble for pulling jokes on his fellow brothers, and he doesn't hesitate to do the same to me.  In fact, I often get into trouble with Sensei because of Mike.  I like a good joke just as much as Mikey does, so I guess you can say I'm his partner in crime.  Of course, being Mikey's fellow prankster isn't always rewarding, but we manage to get a few good laughs out of Master Splinter and the other turtles.  And sometimes, a few laughs is all it takes to make a difference.
