username:You can call me Winter, Wonderland, or whatever you would like.
“Hello, random person, it is a pleasure to meet you. In case you are wondering, my name is Victoria Ruby Gray,
but I personally think it's long and feels like an ancient name. Ever heard of a Victorian house or Queen Victoria,
who was the queen of England a few decades ago? Despite how much I enjoy reading my mental list of all the
reasons why I despise my name, I am guessing that you would like to hear at least one reason why I actually
like it, so I will grant your wish. Victoria is a beautiful name that makes me think of elegance and beauty.
Fortunately, I do not have a common name, and it is very unique. Sometimes, unique is another way of saying
weird, but not in this case. I would hate to be one of those kids that have to be labelled as Ryan One, Ryan Two,
and Ryan Three. Overall, Victoria is a wonderful name that I do not take for granted, but Tori is so much better.
If you would like me to talk to you, call me Tori. Otherwise, get lost. Thank you.
Since you are clearly blind, I will gladly tell you that I am a girl. Luckily, I am not usually confused with a guy,
and I would be freaked out if someone came up to me, like you, and ask what my gender was. First, I have long
hair that extends below my shoulders, which is a length that only one percent of the population of men and boys
have. Also, I paint my nails and wear make-up on certain occasions, but I am not one of those girly-girls. For
further evidence, I am considered to be skinny, and I really hope I do not have a beard or moustache. Other
than that, please do not ask for any more proof.
As for my age, I just turned seventeen. I skipped a grade, so I have always been the youngest compared to my
friends and the rest of the people in my grade, considering the fact that most seniors are at least seventeen or
eighteen. However, I know I have to be sixteen to make my story true, but as I mentioned earlier, I just turned
seventeen on June 15th. Being seventeen, I am quite happy driving and living my life, although I sometimes wish
I could be eighteen or twenty one and have the benefits that come with it. But, hey, I can drive and have a
car, so I'm content.
By the time my parents were in their final years of college, my mother got pregnant and had me. I was born in
a small hospital on the outskirts of town in France. The university my parents were attending was located in
France, although only mom was from there. As for my father, he was born in the United Kingdom, and his whole
family is British. As a result, I am technically a half British and half French girl that lives in California. It's a funny
mixture, but I like it.”

“Well, this might be hard to explain my whole personality, but I will give you a brief glimpse into my life.
I am smart, but I am not one of those geeks who solve match problems for fun, but, I guess, I read for fun.
I am not involved in any academic programs, such as math club or the chess club, for school or anywhere else.
For the record, I hate math and am not a fan of chess. In fact, I do not even really enjoy school in general.
Some of it has its good parts, but most of the time, I do not put much effort into it. I prefer to slouch in my
seat and doodle like a child. When I am tired, I might even make up for my sleep in class when the teacher is
hopefully not watching. Anyway, the reason I am called smart, intelligent, you name it, is because I am the
student that has an A in every class, and I am evidently quite talented when it comes to academics. Even
when I was younger, my parents noticed I was smarter than the other children, so I skipped the first grade
and ended up okay as one of the top students in my class.
Everyone calls me quiet, everyone. I honestly do not know why... Okay, I know why. I was never really
born as a loud and outgoing gal unlike most of my friends. Bluntly sparking a conversation and saying witty
remarks is usually impossible for me. Not being able to keep conversations going is another fault of mine, too.
I would rather be rallying for tennis, ping pong, or whatever else you can think of instead of passing words back
in forth. Although I am not proud of this, I do not have the courage to stand up for myself. However, I have no
problem standing up for others, and I can have a sharp tongue in that case. Overall, I am a quiet girl, who can
be loud, boisterous, or angry when necessary. Plus, being shy and reserved defines me in a way, so if you cannot
accept that, then, please leave now.
Eh, I can be carefree and fun at times, but that is usually rare. Anyway, sometimes, I can be spirited and laugh a
lot. Things rarely get to me, and it is actually quite hard to make me unhappy. It is almost impossible to see me
not relaxed since I love to just lay back and just enjoy the joyous adventure of life without regrets. I guess, that
could be considered being lazy, but I prefer to think of that as being more laid-back. Plus, I can be a little careless
at times by not worrying about a lot of things. When I was younger, I remember touching a blazing flame from my
fireplace because the thought of the fire being able to harm me did not even occur. On the upside, there is the
benefit of not being scared of many things such as rollercoasters and being able to laugh and smile whenever I
want.”
personality: "If I could pick three words that could sum up my personality, I would say smart, quiet, and carefree." “Please do not ask about that again.”
Tori was born in a small town in France, but her parents almost immediately moved to the United States
after her birth. Since then, she grew up along the west coast of California as any other normal American. Tori
had everything she ever needed: a beloved family consisting of her parents and older brother, best friends that
she would never stop hanging out with, and an expensive beach house that cost her parents great debt but was
called her home. Tori's family was never the kind that could purchase every luxurious item they wanted with
their endless wads of overflowing cash, but they eventually managed to pay it all off. It was an ideal location
with a refreshing sea breeze, tropical weather, and a view of the sun rising and setting on the horizon that can
only be described as magical. Tori was free to wander along the ocean anytime she wanted, so she ended up
growing up on the beach. She went snorkelling several times, became skilled in beach volleyball, grew fond of
the sea dwellers, was an expert swimmer, and surfed in her spare time. So Tori grew up to be a Californian girl
with an almost perfect life.
Having a perfect life was not an option, though. Maybe God or something had gotten bored by Tori doing the
same ordinary things and made fate take a twist. As a result, her father was lost to a collusion of a drunk driver
and himself when she was about twelve. Tori was forever changed by a small incident that meant her whole life
to her. At first, it was complete shock and chaos. While her family was grieving, Tori's mother was overwhelmed
by people insisting to schedule a funeral, buy this, spend that, schedule that... In other words, chaos that did not
invite any time to be sad. In the end, Tori did not only loose her father but her mother and brother as well. Her
mother had to work double the time with two separate jobs to sustain the family, so she rarely ever saw Tori.
Similarly, Tori's brother turned to drinking, drugs, and smoking, so he was gone, too. She held back the tears,
though, and became the only strong one in their broken family. Now, when times get dark, she reminds herself
that it is better to act happy so that everyone else around her will be cheerful, and she might even fall for her
own lie. Unfortunately, all the bottled up emotions still lead to her outgoing personality, smile, and light
gradually fading into darkness. Now, Tori is more shy and quiet than the joyful child she used to be, but some say
her happiness is reserved for those she loves.
As time passed, Tori and the rest of her family was able to get over her father’s death and concentrate on their new
lives. Her mother remarried without the permission of Tori's brother or herself. Neither of the siblings liked the
unapproved new member of the household, for their stepfather was rude, arrogant, and did not treat the children
kindly one bit. In fact, the nights he was extremely p*ssed off, he would yell and swear at the innocent children and
maybe even physically push them around, although it was never serious enough to be considered abuse, while Tori's
mother simply walked away without speaking. While Tori's mother stopped weeping, her brother had drastically
turned his life around. He had become addicted to drinking and going out to party almost every night, but fortunately,
everything else ended a few months after his dad's death. It was only minor stuff now and could fit the lifestyle of
any normal teenager. Despite that permanent change, her brother had become himself again, cracking jokes,
laughing, and being himself. Tori stopped constantly thinking about her father, too, and focused on schoolwork.
She finished both junior high and high school and continued to live her life.
“I like a lot of things, but I will narrow my likes down to a few things. First, I love to sit by
myself in silence or listening to music and pull open a book. I love all kinds of stories, and I am not picky about
what I read as long as the story is true and well written. As for my hobbies, my passion lies in art and photography.
Although you can never capture the true beauty of something, photography and drawing is as close as I can get. In
the night, I enjoy sitting on the beach and sketching or taking pictures of the sparkling stars and glowing moon in
the night sky. In my opinion, my drawings and pictures turn out the best in the winter, for winter is the best
season of the year. I love it when everywhere is covered in blankets of snow, and snowflakes are floating in the
wind. It is gorgeous, and basically picture perfect. Plus, winter is the perfect weather to go ice skating, though it
does not really matter what season in California as long as you can find an ice skating rink. Anyway, I love to skate,
and it is pratically the only sport that I actually enjoy, if you do happen to consider it a sport. Since, well, forever,
I have been skating, so I am quite talented and grown more and more passionate about it throughout the years.
It's a wonderful activity to do that I enjoy dearly. Other than that, listening to music is terrific. Whenever I am in
the car, the first thing I do is turn on the radio since the silence is so much louder and noticeable than the music.
I am not that picky with what music I listen to, so I will be happy with whatever random music the channel has
chosen. Movies are also wonderful, too. I love to sit around and watch films. Comedy, action, drama, romance, or
anything else is amazing. I could even enjoy Disney movies all day long. In fact, I think a perfect day for me
would be chilling on a couch, eating microwaved popcorn, and watching movies. Going to the theater is awesome
as well, and I think it makes a perfect date. You do not have to speak or try to make a conversation, but you can
still be with the person. Besides my love for popcorn, chocolate is another irresistible sweet delight. The way it
melts in your mouth and makes you smile at the thought is absolutely priceless. Okay, I sound obsessed and
addicted to it, but I am honestly not. I know how to control my diet, but munching on chocolate, my favourite
sweet, once in a while is amazing. As for nonedible objects or creatures, I love all- almost all animals if you
consider insects an animal. I have a soft spot for animals, and I have to be honest, I like animals much more than
people, especially their company. My personal favourite is a dog because they are a lifelong companion that is always
there for you, but I love all other animals, too. Minus animals, I love all cool colors. When you ask me what my
favorite color is, I will answer something along the lines of purple, blue, or maybe even a turquoise. I dislike bright
colors, although magnificent sunsets and rainbows are exceptions. Overall, there are certain things I like, and I can
probably go on and on, but I think this should be good enough for now.
I cannot express how much I despise rude people and bullies. I have no tolerance for any for them whatsoever. On
the other hand, if you make an effort to at least try to be nice, I will return the favour and like you so much more.
The only thing I really dislike as much as cruel people are bugs. I hate how they crawl everywhere, and they scare
me to death. Spiders, I can tolerate, but I am not a fan of them. I personally prefer them over butterflies and
ladybugs, whom everyone seems to love which is something I cannot comprehend. However, I actually like
fireflies and dragonflies. Maybe it is because dragonflies skim over ponds at night and fireflies light up the night
sky, but either way, I surprisingly like them. In addition, mornings and waking up early are pretty close to the top
of the list of horrors. I usually go to bed late, so waking up in the late morning or afternoon is my normal pattern.
Since I love sleeping, being woken up is not a feeling a like. I am commonly grumpy when I wake up, too, so waking
me up would not be a win situation for me or you. As a warning, don't wake me up please. There is one last dislike
of mine that I prefer not sharing, but considering you are a stranger I will never meet again, I'll make an exception.
I hate car crashes. I am fine with cars and other vehicles, but I always have a fear in the back of my mind. With that,
I have concluded all of my dislikes.”

“I am an average girl with average looks... and average everything else mostly. I could be considered beautiful, but
certainly, I could never stand out when compared to almost any other girl. Honestly, I might think lowly of myself,
but oh well. Now, I will no longer be biased and give a description of my appearance as you have asked. I am 5'7,
which is the average height of a normal girl, but I am not satisfied with my height. I wish I could be a little taller,
although I am not obsessed enough about my height enough to wear high heels. As for my weight... I am not sure.
The last time I checked was a few months ago at a doctor's appointment, and it was calculated to be about 123
pounds. I am skinny, but I have quite a bit of muscle from exercising and sports.
For my hair, it is a dark brown that is close to a milk chocolate or a dark chocolate, depending on the lighting and
if my hair is wet. Under the sunlight, though, it appears to be a mixture of gold and cinnamon, which could be
considered a dirty blonde, but I am a brunette. Besides the color, it is wavy but not really close to curly hair unless
I happen to curl it, which I like to do often. Fortunately, it is low maintenance that I do not take for granted. The
one thing that I truly love about myself is my eyes. They are crystal blue that look like light sapphires. In my opinion,
only my eyes are gorgeous, but other people have differed.
I got my ears pierced when I was six, so I wear earrings sometimes. Besides my piercings, I have no tattoos nor I am
planning to get any. I have nothing against people with tattoos, but I think I could never pull one off. I have heard
they hurt like h*ll and respect people who have them. Anyway, I doubt tattoos would really fit me, considering my
personality and just me. In general, I am not pleased with my appearance, but I have been called pretty more than
once.
If you would like to analyse the clothing I like to wear, I'll give you a little information. I usually wear a casual
shirt with skinny jeans or shorts and maybe a necklace. However, I am not the kind of girl in love with jewellery or
accessorises at all. For shoes, I am always wearing flip-flops or converse tennis shoes. I make sure to keep all
my clothes simple and casual, but I have some fancy clothes. However, dresses are a no, no matter what the
occasion is.”

“My love life? I had really hoped it would not come to this. Um, okay, let's get this over with. Sorry ladies, but
I am straight and will probably never change. As for my crush, I am in love with... wait for it... no one! Isn't that
wonderful? No, seriously, I do not like anyone. I prefer being alone unless I were to find someone that I would
actually not mind spending every second of my life with. I might find someone I fall in love with eventually, but for
now, single is the thing for me.
Okay, I have really been open about your question asking, but asking about my exes crosses the line. However, I
guess, I might as well give you some background information as long as you never, ever, ever tell anyone else. If
this information is confidential, then, I have dated one guy throughout high school. I was in love, and I might even
have called him my soul mate, which I regret. In the end, he unfortunately dumped me for some other girl. Not that
I am sure, but he might have cheated on me, too. That was in the past, though, so I could really care less about him
now.”
