About your Character:
Physical Appearance:
Autumn is a very laid back girl, which shows through her fashion style. She doesn't need diamonds and hair extensions to feel good about herself, but prefers natural beauty consisting of mellow, neutral shades of make up and clothing that is not just designer, but comfortable. While she goes for the casual jeans and cutest top, she prefers to keep her clothing style up to date, against her parents wishes of conservative. By adding simple accessories like Gucci heels and Armoni sunglasses, she makes her comfortable look and seem more appealing to surrounding students than it actually is.
Normally wearing her hair down, Autumn was born a natural blond, with straight hair, inheriting this from her mothers genes. Her hair styles vary from pin straight to bouncing curls, depending on her moods and the time she has to do it. She wears her hair long, and all one Length. No bangs or layers, but the occasional light highlights through out the summer.
Her weight now at a constant, is still beneath average weight for someone her age and height, although she isn't very tall. Her weight took a downfall when she was sixteen after having a very serious tear in her stomach after competing in a "Run against Racism Marathon," where she had turned around too fast and damaged muscles surrounding her stomach. As a result, she was unable to eat much of anything other than liquids for the longest time. Her mother assumed it was anorexia and had the family doctor run countless tests on her against Autumns will. After this incident, the tearing healed itself and she was able to put on a portion of the weight she had lost, though not all of it.
Upon first glance, Autumn is a very level girl that keeps her priorities in order. She is fairly responsible and very well organized for her age. Raised as a socialite, she is polite and respectful to others, even if they don't return the simple acts of kindness. When confronted or insulted, Autumn is known to keep silent. Confrontation isn't something she was prepared for when entering high school, even in her last year of school she hasn't quite been able to step up and defend herself though if she sees someone that needs help, she will more than likely go out of her way to politely tell the trouble maker to back off.
Personality:
Autumn is a very relaxed girl, especially for her age. She refuses to let small things aggravate her, or petty people stop her from doing whatever it is she's trying to accomplish. As stated above, she is very timid and is usually the last person to defend herself in tough situations. Due to this, she is not very trusting of people she hasn't been friends with for long periods of time. She prefers hanging onto relationships with people she's known the longest, but openly welcomes anyone introduced to her clique of friends, even if it's timidly.
Around her parents, Autumn seems very well rounded. Being the only daughter and youngest of the two, she was raised to perfection in her parent's eyes. Raised to not only do as she was told, but to believe what she was being told to do was what is right for her. Family isn't a value Autumn has ever held dear. Because of her parents financial status, she moved from place to place with her fathers business before finally settling down in her current home when she was fifteen. There, she was finally able to establish relationships with people other than her parents and her older brother of seven years. Having a bit of a wild side in attempt to rebel against her family results in Autumn rarely being on time for her parents. Though she is respectful and polite to their faces, she never has a good thought or word to wards them. Her brother on the other hand, has managed to found and manage to keep a strong relationship with his sister. Though he no longer lives close by, he is sure to visit as often as possible and writes weekly.
During class hours, Autumn strives to get her work done not only on time, but as best as she can. Not being exactly Harvard material gives her a comfort zone, knowing she doesn't have to carry the burden of being "the smart kid."
Away from her home life, Autumn chooses to be around the people that she is most comfortable with, her closest friends and her boyfriend. With them she is able to leave her parents behind and act like most teenagers her age do. Having a great sense of humor, she is capable of making her friends smile at any cost and is a professional at forcing them to laugh when they are clearly upset.
Hobbies:
In her spare time, Autumn always has something to do. Volunteering at local animal shelters is her preference. There, she assures that each animal has not only food and water, but her as a play mate when they seem lonely. When she isn't at the animal shelter, Autumn chooses to spend time with her friends and her boyfriend. Anything from a simple movie at the movie theater to weekend long road trips are on her favorite things list. During those rainy days when she is stuck at home, she can be found in her bedroom writing casual poems that she not only enters in public contests, but once she collects enough of her own work, publishes into single books for her personal collection.
Her less common hobbies include trips to the salon, and running after dark. She is most commonly seen doing these during the summer, through rarely has time to do so once the school year resumes.

Born and raised as a blond hair, blue eyed socialite in Orange County - California, Sarah Burkley lacked the education one needed to get by in life. Her parents made the decision to home school her up until tenth grade, where they pulled her out to introduce her to her current husband which they had chosen themselves to assure she would be financially set for life. Luckily, Sarah not only approved of their choice for her, but soon fell in love. Never having a job, Sarah is a stay-at-home mother and social chair for local charity drives such as the battered women's shelter, and the Children's Hospital which gives her the opportunity to choose live music, locations and send out invitations to A list guests. Though charity drives and acting as a mother keeps her plenty busy, Sarah always has time for daily trips to hair salons, weekly manicures and pedicures, as well as suntanning which happen to be her favorite pastimes.

Marrying at the young age of nineteen, Luke Taylor was already co-owner and chief of his former fathers business which imports and exports money for the rich and wealthy to banks off the cost of Mexico to evade taxes. Luke is rarely around his home life, though manages to see his family on the side if and when he can. Having another family on the side rarely phases him. Impregnating a girl during his first year of high school found it's way to his parent's ears causing them to irrupt with anger that he had a child out of wedlock, and banned him from seeing her further. After sneaking to the hospital to see his estranged daughter in the nursery, he said his good-bye's and focused his time and money on Sarah and her pregnant belly. Today he has no records of his side family, and has no intention on looking them up.

The first born to both Sarah and Luke Taylor, Cameron was raised as a proper young man up until the age of six. Being one of the only preppy boys at school, he began to rebel against his family and their child rearing skills. Sneaking fake pistols and comic books into the house was a common task for Cameron, though using them without his parents catching him was much more difficult. As a teenager, he hung out with what his parents referred to as "the wrong crowd" and took up excessive partying well into his last years of high school and into his early years of college. Having enough, he turned to the Army and trained to be a specialist in commanding and labour before being conscripted to Iraq. He often visits home, though letters suffice weekly when he cannot.
x•xChocolate Chipx•x
At the beginning of this year, Autumn's father had bought her a Bolgeeze puppy from Mongolia as gift after a feud they had over their final move to the town, only for it to die the next day from toxics that it was introduced to on the airplane. Before she found out he had bought her a puppy, he replaced it with a miniature white lab, weighing only seven pounds at full growth. Falling instantly in love, she decided to name her new friend Chocolate Chip, with the irony of it's white fur. Her puppy is an indoor dog, with the exceptions of it's sunset walks with Autumn.

Your Characters History:
Born and raised in Orange County - California, Autumn Taylor lived her life as a young socialite. Meeting rich and fabulous people was part of her daily routine up until the age of eight when her father made countless business deals and had to leave California all together.
Packing up and saying good bye was something Autumn soon became good at, as her hometowns added to a growing list. California, Paris, England just to name a few. At the age of fifteen, her family has finally come to a stop and settled down giving Autumn the chance to meet new friends, and her boyfriend Zach.
Meeting Zach her second year in high school through mutual friends, Autumn instantly formed a crush. Blushing at even his most simple glance in her general direction, she couldn't help but ramble on about him to her friends. After hearing enough, her friends soon ignored her request for silence and confronted Zach about a blind date, keeping it a secret from Autumn. Both agreeing, they met up in a local Mexican restraint and talked for hours over countless plates of taco's. Soon after they made their blossoming relationship public and have been together ever since.
Because of the complicated childhood both her and her brother went through, the family bond between the children and the parents faded over the years. Seeing them now as spoiled, neither Cameron or Autumn prefer to bare the relationships with them.

Finishing Up:
Sample Post:
The sun had already protruded well past the trees, causing the simple amount of stars in the night sky to gleam and sparkle atop the clouds that you could just feel coming. To her, the stars seemed to represent the years of staying beneath her parent's thumb, the thousands of hours she spent trying to be their perfection but she knew now that perfection fades, and stars fall.
It had taken her eighteen years, and the twenty five minute drive to get to where she was tonight. A bus stop, standing eagerly beside a dew drenched bench with two suit cases to one side of her. A bus map stating the clearest routes to the furthest cities to the other, it amazed her to see just how far two dollars could get her as she clenched the money in her hands tight enough to turn her knuckles white, as if it were her last breath she were fighting to hold onto.
As a child, Autumn had always dreamed of running away someday with a prince on a majestic white horse. Riding off into the sunset to his castle. Years passed, princes came and went and sunset passed. It seemed as though her dreams left her with the reoccurring nightmare of staying with her family, staying in the same schedule they had placed on the same desk at the same time every morning. Tennis lessons, tutoring, cricket. Their ideas of fun. Her idea of a hell built to hold her back from becoming just another person. Someone less than perfection. It wasn't until this evening when she put on her running shoes before Tennis, she realized they could carry her further than the tennis court in her back yard. She could go anywhere in the entire world, she could start, build the person she wants to be instead of having it hand picked by someone else.
The bus lights danced across her face as the door opened up to her, leaving her to close the one she was leaving behind. As she opened her clenched hands, she dropped the two dollars into the slot and watched the last part of this life dissapear...
Opening her eyes, Autumn sat up in bed and stared out her window into the blackened night. She felt like the noises she heard outside against the window was her heart, repeatedly being thrown into the glass but in reality, outside of thoughts and dreams...It was only the rain.
