distinctive traits

...personal*
personality
Passive-Aggressive: Courtney doesn’t like being outwardly expressive with her emotions. She sticks to the silent treatment and cold shoulder. Every emotion affects her differently and each emotion is paired with a certain action. For example, when she is angry, she bites on her lower lip. When she gets sad, she slouches, which is an obvious contrast to her seemingly perfect posture.
Dependent: Courtney needs someone else to function properly. She hates being alone and without someone to help her through her troubles, then she’d probably end up curling up in a ball and just crying for days. She has always had someone to look out for her, so she can’t help but to get attached to people quickly. She relies on the kindness of the human heart, but when someone pushes her away, then she gets scared and obsessive. Sooner or later she gets over that person, but she feels like a part of herself is missing.
Open: She doesn’t mind to tell you her life story even if you’ve only known her for a few hours. She doesn’t see the world in black and white. In fact, she sees the world in a full spectrum of Grays. Some people are good, some evil. Some people like chocolate while others prefer strawberry. Nothing about the world is strictly this or that. There are in-betweens and nobody is one extreme. If she looks hard enough she can see through masks that people wear.
Wide-Eyed: This is a weird way to word this part of her personality. Courtney finds something to be amazed at every day. She is like a newborn baby seeing the world for the first time, except she sees the world for the first time every day. She isn’t scared of the unknown. No, she embraces the new, the strange, the wild, and everything that New York City has to offer her. Because of this, she wants to travel all around the world.
past
Stacie Ann and Ryan McHenry were two happy newlyweds when they had Gavin. They never adjusted their lifestyle until Stacie Ann started majorly showing which at that point they lived off Ryan’s inheritance money. They focused on making Gavin’s life perfect before he was actually brought into the world. They found a nanny, redid him a room, and started a college account in Gavin’s name. He was born and three years later they were expecting again.
Courtney Ryanne McHenry.
The McHenry family was equally as excited, but they were a bit more enthusiastic about Courtney’s arrival. Stacie Ann took maternity leave two weeks after she found out she was pregnant, but she still ran her business from the comfort of her home, while Ryan started all the prep work. They moved Gavin into another room farther down the hall from them and bought all new décor for baby Courtney’s room. Gavin was openly jealous of the new baby’s attention and started acting out. His parents tried their best to show him attention, but the excitement that Courtney brought them made them... absentminded.
However, Courtney was going to get a perfect life too.
Courtney was conceived on May 13th, 1995 on a beautiful spring morning. Everything was seemingly perfect for the first ten years of Courtney’s life. She was a very curious child who seemed amazed by everything. She’d wander aimlessly around the local park for hours to just observe her surroundings, while her brother focused on sports and proving his worth. Courtney had always been the carefree child, while Gavin was the uptight child. Courtney had few friends, but the ones she had were people that she truly cared for, while Gavin, you guessed it, had enough friends to fill a few football stadiums. Everywhere that they went Courtney would lollygag while Gavin was determined and focused. They’s usually get into agreements, but they loved one another.
Gavin was always defending his sister from the world, while she simply blew the remarks off. Gavin looked for punishment, while Courtney looked for ‘f***s-to-give.’ They lived a pretty great life for fourteen years until a minor uprooting for the family.
Stacie Ann’s business started branching out and her newest expansion was New York. Specifically New York City. Real Estate was booming there and Stacie Ann took the opportunity to expand and move on. They packed their bags and jumped a few timezones, and finally landed in a much colder environment. Courtney was a bit overwhelmed, feeling the need to call and Skype her friends daily. Gavin looked at New York City as a new conquest.
present
The move to New York City was smooth, sort of. Courtney’s dependence on her friends made it difficult for her to branch out. Gavin was enrolled at Barrie, while Courtney was forced to go to Baum. She kept to herself for her freshman year, but she felt even lonelier. She knew she needed to make friends.
She decided to join as many clubs and organizations that her little heart desired. She loves soccer and tennis and has a real knack for debate team. Her deep interest in the unknown lead to her love for books and learning. She also has a job at The Fishbowl as a waitress. She has adjusted fairly well to the move.
