Your family, described as TV charaters (inspired by the lovely Autumn).

[RaisingSand]

So yeah, saw Autumn's post, and thought this would be a cool way for people to describe people in their family, what they're like, so when and if they have any issues within their social circle, we've got a bit of info to go on. :)

So, I guess I'll start:

Mum: 47, does something for the local council that invloves doing stuff for the libraries in the district. Is the boss. Never cooks, or cleans. Strict, no-nonsense.

Dad: 66, was our best friend growing up, a real big softie. Runs our business, trains horses full time. Can get angry if you bullshit, make a mess, or are rude.

Daniel: 27, works as a builder. Still comes home for weeks at a time, even though he and his girlfriend Danica have their own apartment in town. Likes beer, football, the gym and practical jokes. Thinks Billy Connelly is God.

Victoria: 27, used to be a primary school teacher, now a stay-at-home mum to Noah and Isobel. High matinence, rather like me, likes the movie Legally Blonde. Lives with partner Mark.

Lauren: 17, me. Dunno how to describe myself.

Other appearances:

Danica: 22, Daniel's girlfriend, is a vet nurse. Very quiet, but very nice. Appears to have my brother right in the palm of her hand. Laughs at "Yo momma" jokes.

Mark: 30, Vicky's partner, father of Isobel and (adopted) Noah. Drives like a bat out of hell. Is an accountant. Gets angry if you diss V8 racing. Likes Johnny Cash.

David: 19, my fiance, is currently working at a lumber mill during his gap year before college. Likes movies with Adam Sandler in them, dislikes birds and cold winter mornings.

Isobel: 3 months old, my niece. Has blonde hair, likes giggling and her Big Bird rattle.

Noah: 3, my nephew, dislikes carrots and being told what to do. Often is heard yelling "BUGGER IT, GRANDAD" when he's here. Likes dad's boat, mainly because it was named "Noah's Ark" after him.

Helena: About 45, is our housekeeper. Makes my bed the wrong way, never mitres the edges of my sheets. Is a very good cook. Seems to be slightly deaf. Apparently has 3 cats and a son who never calls her.

Alternate appearances, aka, randoms who show up at our place whenever:

Mike: About 26, Dan's mate. Can often be found passed out on our living room on any Sunday morning after a night of beer and footie.

Emily: 20, one of our female stable hands, stayed here for a period of time, now lives in one of the guest houses/flats on our property. Got offside with me by eating my cereal.

[Zephyr]

Oooo! Me likey = ]]]

Mom: 46, Neurotic as all hell, you move one carpet strand out of place and it's curtains. Otherwise very understanding and nonjudgemental, always supportive. Doesn't believe in punishment, but rather sees messing up as learning your lesson.

Dad: 45, Can drink anybody under the table. A bit of a pervert, but funny as hell at times. Beleives in hard work, honesty and karma. Likes to think that he's macho-man, but is a big ol' pussy cat at heart = ]

Jen: 20, Mommy and Daddy's little asshole. Was never properly diciplined as a teenager, becoming a party animal. Smart, beautiful and funny, yet she has the biggest self-esteem problem ever. Has too much interest in everything, so she dropped out of college to find out what she wants out of life. Scared to leave her comfort zone.

Steph: 18, Mommy and Daddy's little girl. What her parent's don't know about her would break their hearts, so she puts up the facade of little angel. I will try anything at least once. I love living life and I can't wiat to spread my wings and fly. I'm everybody's down-to-earth anchor.

Tim: 50, Possibly the world's best step-dad, he tries to be more of a friend than a parental figure. may seem like a square, but he's had his fair share of wild times as a young adult. Currently a bank manager.

Derrick: 26, The wicked awesome step brother. Smart as hell, he has a college degree in chemical engineering. Don't let the brains fool you, he's a tall guy with a long sole patch and converse in every color. He has a passion for cooking and dance, well read and cultured as well as experimental. Extremely nice, friendly and open. Steph's buddy = ]

Starla: 44, Dad's girlfriend. Excellent cook, nice as hell and tones out dad's harshness since she won't put up with his crap. A short and petite woman, but not so much in her personality. Fun to talk to.

Other appearances:

Sarah: 17, Steph's best friend = ] We swear that we're sisters from different misters... siamese twins born one month apart, we're always on the same vibe. We do everything together: party, have deep conversations, chill... just everything. As we always say: If one of us were a guy, we'd make the perfect couple... probably already be married, lol. Getting an apartment with me sometime in the next few months.

Cecily: 17, one of my closest friends. We talk about EVERYTHING, especially after getting stoned and drinking in my dad's shop almost every weekend. We always walk around town for hours on end. We never run out of anything to talk about.

Timmy: 20, My gay best friend. Though the last year we haven't talked much, you're still important to me. Without me, you'd be dead right now. Without you, I'd be dead right now. We're eachother's life savers... whenever things got/get too hectic, we talk to eachother.

Sam: 19, My ex-boyfriend. We didn't break up on the best of terms, but now we're talking again. We just had too good of a past as friends first to not be friends again, especially since we were both so adventurous when we're together ;)

My Co-Workers: too many to name, but we're all a crazy-fun bunch that just happen to be stuck at the same job.

Page: 18, The only person that I can truly say that I hate. My polar opposite: a rude and heartless bitch who won't say anything to your face due to a hate of confrontation. She can't be honest with her feelings to save her life, and only has humor working for her, otherwise she's a boring blob.

[AutumnDae]

Yay, I inspired something!

Anyways, I'll put some other people in here.

Friends:

Lindsey: 14, Nice. Likes to sing, very loudly. Has an ex-boyfriend Sean who she is very good friends with. I think she still has feelings for him, but she says otherwise. Annoying sometimes. Love her to death, but sometimes she gets on my nerves.

Cathy: 14, Sort of a bitch sometimes. Can break you down without realizing it. Likes to criticize. Very wealthy family. A dancer, with Camille and Angela, plus others from other schools. Has an ex boyfriend Bryant, who is a jerk and a liar. They are acquaintances.

Hanna: 14, Okay. Swims, plays soccer and softball, plus skis. Sort of annoying sometimes. Has a lake house, and sometimes invites people over. Very skinny, and lets everyone know it.

Camille: 14, a dancer. Such a sweetheart. We always have such a good time together. We are the two that always go outside together after lunch and just hang out. We always sneak food into movie theaters together, and I think that me and her are the two people that will stay good friends through adulthood.

Chloe: 14, A flirt. Sweet sometimes, and yet turns around and stabs you in the back. Steals people who you like right from under your nose. Three people she has done that to already. Gets what she wants, no matter what.

Angela: Me and her used to be best friends. Key word, used. I'm not really sure what happened, but we hardly ever talk anymore. Her sister, who is a year older than us, and her always invite a bunch of people over to have parties. I'm never invited. All of the other people I am posted about are, but I'm not. I'm not really sure why, but I'm not. I don't think I did anything to her, but oh well.


My good friends, they are. Although the way I wrote about them made them sound bad. Eh, sometimes they are.

[Gumleaf]

ok, so here we go. some unknown facts about my friends and family.


main characters

dad: 54 - owns his own couriering business and has done so for 3 years. he works hard and runs the business well because the profit is growing all the time. it was because of this that we moved to sydney. when dad isn't working he is most likely either resting or doing stuff for the church we go to.

mum: 52 - mum works as a receptionist/personal assistant. she has always done that type of work for as long as i can remember. when she isn't working she is a home mum and takes care of my dad, sister and me.

renee: 21 - renee is my sister. she works in child care. we are still quite close considering our age difference and mostly get along well, except for the odd brother/sister arguements that everyone has. renee has a bf and spends most of her spare time with him. so we don't see much of eachother, especially during the week.

stephen: 14 - its hard to describe myself but those of you that read my posts would know my personality a bit by now. thats all i'll say.


secondary characters

joanne: 15 - joanne is stephen's girlfriend. she is a fun loving girl. she has a strong personality, but also has a loving and caring side that makes just an all round amazing person.

richard: 21 - richard is my sisters boyfriend. he is a butcher and works full time in a supermarket. richard is always especially nice to me because i'm the future brother-in-law. richard is expected to propose to renee anytime from now really.

jessica: 14 - jessica is my ex girlfriend. i think the words bitch, slut and whore fit her nicely!

adam: 15 - adam is my best guy friend (when i sometimes refer to a friend and don't name them in my posts, its most likely adam). he is in my year at school. we often hang out together outside of school. atm we are playing the wii a lot. thats so much fun. adam is the only guy friend i have that i feel comfortable about discussing personal stuff with.

sandra: early 40's - sandra is jo's mum (known to me as mrs <insert last name>. she is really nice and likes me which makes it so much easier to spend time with joanne. sandra is a nurse in the cancer ward of a hospital.

john: late 40's - john is jo's dad (mr <insert last name> to me. john likes me too. he is very protective of jo because she is the only child. but he trusts me with her so we get along well. john works in a bank. i think they are quite rich actually.


occassional characters

angela: 15 - angela is a girl in my class who causes trouble. her most recent trouble making was trying to break up jo and i. she is the type of girl who seems nice on the outside, but when you get to know her, she is a manipulative person who won't stop til she gets what she wants.

drew: 14/15 - is jessica's new bf. the one she cheated on me for. i think he is a real bastard because he knew exactly what was going on when they were doing stuff before i was dumped. but before that i actually thought he was a nice person. how people change!!!

random friends: 14/15 - i love all my friends dearly. these are the friends i have fun with, but not am especially close to. they are great people and we have a great time together.

random idiots: 14/15 - these are the people that i know who aren't friends with me, mainly because of something they have done to me. the most recent thing was calling my girlfriend a whore and slut amongst other things.


and thats about everyone, without going into extended familes and stuff.
