AU NAME: Yoko Littner (might be something different) AU AGE: 23 AU OCCUPATION: University student (Education major) BLURB:
☆ Just started her first year of graduate school in September and is working towards getting herself a Master's degree in Education. Her goal is to be able to teach elementary when her degree is complete. She started at NYU and took her undergrad there and moved to Recolle for a change in scenery and to see what else is out there. The current job market in New York for teachers is also too competitive for her.
☆ She comes from a well-off family. Her parents own and work as mechanics and own a shop in New York, so she has some background in all things mechanical since they did a broad range of work. She doesn't have the business mindset and she wants nothing to do with running it. Yoko's always been a bit of a free spirit and wants to do her own thing and forge her own path. It's another reason she left New York.
☆ She lived a very comfortable life growing up just outside of New York City with her mom and dad. Nothing out of the ordinary.
☆ She can be frequently found at local pubs and bars that hold pool or dart tournaments. Some evenings, Yoko spends hours here practicing her throws. She participates in these tournaments for a little extra money on top of her part-time job because the girl's got good aim.
☆ Works part-time as a waitress to make money for school. (Need to figure out what restaurant she'd be working at!)
☆ Yoko likes to keep fit and can also be seen at the gym often doing all kinds of intense workouts. She works to stay fit and she's proud of her body.
☆ She's very studious and school will always come first, which is why she's also at the library a lot with her nose stuck in a book or on her laptop. And no, she is totally not playing video games on her laptop at school???
☆ Other hobbies include occasional video games (she's mostly into first person shooters), learning about astronomy, and pool. She also enjoys sports once in a while, dodgeball being her favourite.
☆ She's never held a real gun in her life, but she can wield an arcade gun no problem.
☆ She needs glasses but wears contacts most of the time instead when she's out and about.
☆ Personality-wise, not much has changed from her canon self. She's still got a bit of a temper when given a reason for it to flare up, but she's usually very level-headed and a logical, rational thinker. She doesn't believe in violence of any kind and will punish anyone who takes anything out on children especially. She tends to be very protective about those she cares for and will probably big sis anyone who manages to wiggle their way in there!
LOOKING FOR:
☆ New friends! She just moved here a couple of months ago so she barely knows anyone! ☆ A possible roommate? ☆ Classmates and professors ☆ People who are currently teaching and can mentor her? ☆ Workout buddies, study buddies, darts or pool buddies ☆ Some video game rivals or teammates might be fun! Especially ones she's played against online but has never met IRL (or maybe she has and doesn't know it) ☆ Someone who knows lots about space!! She's intrigued by all things astronomy related! ☆ Anything!
