Crystal Heart
"She is not fair to outward view,
As many maidens be:
Her loveliness I never knew
Until she smiled upon me."
-Hartley Colebridge
Crystal Heart is a silly sophomore in college.
Being between annoying perfectionist and procrastinator, she puts tons of stress on herself in order to get good grades, so that makes her somewhat of a geek. However, the genes were in her favor, so she is a somewhat attractive geek, and in the eyes of some, not a geek at all! Crystal also is somewhat of a softy, and cries at the movies, etc. She always worries about
something
, and if she's not worried, she's not being normal. She feels for the human plight, and that is why she likes to help people get through tough situations, etc.
As for her life, well, she loves to read, and she will read almost anything! Emphasize
almost
. She is a romantic, believing the guy should always get the girl, etc, and she also searches for deep meaning and theme in the books that are more dark and serious than the light cheery classics she reads (anything by L.M. Montgomery and Jane Austen). But, as I said before, she pretty much enjoys everything but horror (it's scary!). She likes sci-fi/fantasy (more inclined toward fantasy), but her favorite books are historical fiction...be regency, Victorian, frontier, whatever; it's gotta be believable. Contrary to popular belief, she does not read books to escape the harsh reality of life, but she reads them to put off the truth for a while ! :)
Crystal writes all the spare time she can get, which is not much, but she manages. This explains why she is VERY late in posts...: (
Although she seems like a very serious and mature person, she is a little girl at heart; she believes in fairies, even
if
the books she reads are mostly set in realistic times. She also loves pretty things. She has a light heart when she is happy, which is why she likes to be so.
She gets really tired often.
I'll bring you
