I'm a rather shy, rather nerdy girl. Not that the "shy" part comes across online. Via internet, you're lucky if you can get me to shut up. I spend my time frittering my life away on this glorious website, writing fanfiction and original stories, singing, and performing in plays. I have a very, very protective mother. Thus, I'm forbidden to give age and/or location. Sad day. Suffice it to say I'm young and grew up in a small, rainy town. That I love.
Oh, and I'm Catholic. It's important to me, but I'm not the type to be all, "WE ARE THE CHRISTIANS. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED."
Tropes That Apply To This Troper:
- Adjusting Your Glasses: Type 3, of the western Nerd Glasses characterization.
- Bookworm: Until this whole internet and TV tropes addiction started, I was known for reading constantly.
- Brown Eyes: Steady and average as they come.
- Apologizes a Lot: Because I'm too lazy to fix the problem when I see it coming.
- Brainy Brunette: Straight As. Except for Pre-Calculus.
- Cuddle Bug: Once I warm up to a person.
- Everbody Hates Mathematics: WITH A FIERY BURNING PASSION.
- Faux Yay: With the other female members of my drama club. As far as I know, we're all actually straight.
- Geek: Mostly for literature and fanfiction.
- Geeky Turn-On: I always found it kinda hot my lab partner kept his Pokemon cards in his binder...
- Grammar Nazi: Except when I talk. For some reason, my mouth doesn't seem to get it, really.
- Guilty Pleasures: Those new Tinkerbell movies.
- Heavy Sleeper: I always miss thunder because I sleep through it.
- Lawful Good: Due to my trusting and empathetic personality.
- Meganekko: Exploited. I play up the quiet, nerdy angle with thick-rimmed glasses.
- My Friends... and Zoidberg: I make these sorts of jokes too much. Additionally, a guy I have feelings for once said that if he ever got incredibly rich he'd take all his friends to Japan, "Oh, and You too if you wanted to go, Penelope." Youch.
- Never Heard That One Before: My name is very pun conducive.
- Not a Morning Person: Not even close.
- Ordinary High-School Student
- Proud to Be a Geek: Because geeks have all the awesome, wacky subcultures. And sci-fi. Delicious, delicious sci-fi.
- Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: I slip in to this sometimes, but I try to hold back. I don't like being stared at. Luckily, most of my friends are just as bad and can figure out what I mean.
- Shrinking Violet: It's quite frustrating.
- Single Woman Seeks Good Man: I find gentleman-liness and kindness very attractive.
- Team Mom: To assorted groups of online and real-life friends. Sometimes, even to adults.
- Third-Person Person: Penelope likes third person. She likes it very much.
- Wide-Eyed Idealist: No matter how much sarcasm I employ while joking around, I've never been able to buy into the gloom-and-doom worldview.
