-- AURELIA FRANCES EGINO !

-- NAME: Aurelia Frances Egino
-- NICKNAMES: Lita and Frankie
-- AGE & BIRTHDAY: Twenty-three and August 5th
-- BIRTH PLACE: Sacramento, California
-- ORIENTATION: Heterosexual
-- OCCUPATION & SCHOOL GRADE: waitress and shot girl
-- PLAYED BY: Arci Munoz

-- PERSONALITY !

--Wild: In a sense she's wild because so far she's done everything she isn't suppose to. Examples would be: she moved with almost nothing to Boston (her parents weren't pleased); isn't currently enrolled in college; works as a waitress and a shot girl, two jobs her parents have found to be lowly; living with a man who is not her husband. Yeah, she wild in the eyes of her own parents. Aurelia is a free spirit who needs room to roam freely. To feel the wind in her hair. This girl isn't wild in the sense that she likes to party and get into trouble. Not that she doesn't like to party but its different. Rebellious would probably be a better term.
-- Optimistic: Despite leaving her life behind in California, Aurelia is positive that life only gets better, and will not let anything get in the way. If that means that she has to make do without something (ex. food, money, or a place to stay) than she'll make do. The philosophy she's been trying to stay true would be that there is always a rainbow after a storm. Liam would have to be the sole person responsible for her sunnier deposition. Aurelia has looked at life as an obstacle she must complete. As long as she has Liam by her side the world can suck it!
-- Insecure: As a child she was told that she would never amount to anything. That was only because her grades in school were never what her parents wanted. B's weren't acceptable in their household. Like many Asian families they put value into academics than anything else. Aurelia's family was no different. This created a rift amongst parents and child. There was a time in her life, during her middle school and early high school years, that she rebelled; cutting class, smoking, and coming home late at night. Aurelia soon became a shell of her former self. This included allowing boys to take advantage of her because it meant someone "cared". Mainly she has a hard time accepting the love of another; to her it just words and actions. Words and actions don't always speak out loud at least to her.
--Caring: At first glance most people see her as someone who doesn't like to talk. What they perceive as being indifferent is just a facial description. If you were down on your luck, cold, and hungry you can bet she'd offer you her jacket and share the food. Aurelia's Achilles heel would have to be that she tends to make people's problems her own. Which was how her friendship with Liam began. Some people would think she's more of a mother hen, to those she likes, and tends to fuss over her friends the most.
--Defensive:Don't think you can push her around because this girl can handle herself. The sunny disposition may be part of her personality but she change at drop of a hat. Mess with her, or someone close to her, and you can guarantee that she'll mess you up. Now just because she is Asian don't assume that she knows karate, or whatever, but you can bet she's got a mean punch.

-- LOVES: The ocean, road trips, sunshine, drag queen shows, thunderstorms, candy apples, swing music, greasers, vanilla milkshakes, musicals, new book smell, halo-halo, fresh cut grass, singing.
-- HATES: Homophobes, the color yellow, hot/cold weather, being left behind, roaches, rap music, mud, babies, tourists, reptiles, mornings, overly thin girls, racists, boy bands.

-- HISTORY !

Now most people would say they were born on a bright sunny day to wonderful parents. Mr. and Mrs. Egino weren't bad parents but they were rather strict with their only daughter. Even at an early age the young girl was made to study and learn. Corporal punishment was the norm.

The only time Aurelia could remember being happy was in her childhood. There was some expectations but her parents smiled more. Of course she remembers that there were better times, less than the bad, but who remembers the good times? Mr. and Mrs. Egino had both grown up in poverty in their homeland, the Philippines, so of course they wanted their daughter to succeed. They had migrated to the United States of America in order to give her a better life. What they saw in their child was something more than obedience. They saw a free spirited child.

During her adolescence years Aurelia was well liked by her peers. Unfortunately for her parents, once again, she never made friends with other Filipinos; in favor of making friends with any other race but her own.

It wasn't until her 10th year in high school that she met the him. He was new and a little on the shy side. Liam was the epitome of nerd with his superhero t-shirts and square glasses. At first they didn't speak until one rainy day at school. It wasn't out of the norm that Aurelia needed to find a ride home, if she missed the bus, and Liam's mother was running late. Two months had gone by since he'd started at their high school; they had one class together P.E. Now the question was what brought them together? A love for the stars above and the constellations.

It only took her a few days to make a decision; stay in Sacramento or follow Liam to Boston. The bus ticket was bought even before the decision was made. Mr. and Mrs. Egino made it a point that she would not be welcomed back into their home. Aurelia was welcomed to visit but coming home was not an option. What didn't help the situation was the boy was white. There had been hope she would have found at least a Filipino. Now any child hearing this would be devastated but when your in love nothing else matters. Yes, Aurelia had fallen in love with Liam even if he hadn't really known it yet. They were just friends after all.

Boston was beautiful. It was nothing like Sacramento. Yes there was water but it wasn't water that one would want to get into, being that it was cold, but it was home now. The first month was spent living in and out of motels as they searched for jobs. A waitress job came about a week after they'd settled. It wasn't glamorous but they needed money. Soon after Liam got a job at the Observatory but only as a guide.

So far its been rather tough for both of them. A job at the Observatory doesn't pay much but they've managed to stay a float, only because Aurelia works two jobs to cover their simple expenses like food, gas, and laundry money. Two years have passed since they both moved to Boston. Two years that a lot of things have happened but so far they are both still alive. There isn't a place she wouldn't want to be right now but right where she's at.

-- SAMPLE !

Camille wouldn’t be bringing up the firefighter for now or until he was able to speak about it again, without flinching, or looking like a cornered child. Though, she would look into whom this man was and maybe she’d call upon a few people she knew who had connections to the city officials. Most likely they would probably turn her away and tell her not to get involve. Why should she anyway? It was because that kind of harassment was something that brought about a bad taste in her mouth. Edwin was really naïve when it came to the opposite or same sex that one day he’d be put into a bad situation. Yes, Camille liked taking control of the situation but never in her life would she force herself upon any man or woman.

Edwin’s eye grew huge as he looked at her, a little troubled, had he remembered something else he needed to tell her, but it was only his own concerns over trivial matters, “Eddy,” Camille began, “You can’t seriously be upset about not being able to run when you’ve just suffered a concussion and been sexually harassed. That should be the least of you worries.” Okay, so she knew it was probably wrong of her to throw away his only happiness out the door but he should be worrying about taking care of himself. “Once your in the clear than you’ll be able to run to your hearts content. If exercise concerns you later on tonight we can go on a walk to get some fresh air.” It was the least she could offer him.

“You should drink a little water until your able to stomach some food, that way you’ll stay hydrated.” Edwin gave her that lost look, it made her want to crush him to her, a tight embrace, but that would probably cause him more pain and might slightly make her a little aroused. He looked a little adorable right now in his helpless state but of course she wouldn’t say anything of the sort. “Sure, I’ll get you something to eat, I can’t promise that it’ll be healthy, but its something to sustain you until we can get something better into you. Don’t worry, I’ll go down to the cafeteria and fetch something.” Camille poured him a bit of water into a cup beside his bed, placing it next to him in case he was a little thirsty, “I’ll be right back.” He would be fine for a little bit and they shouldn’t be expecting any company for now.

“Don’t worry,” She turned around at the door, placing her hand on the doorknob, “I won’t leave you here until you get to check out but we’ve got to think of something to pass the time.” Maybe she should have brought some work with her to do while they were just sitting there. There was one song she needed to work on that she would have liked to debut for next week when she’d get a longer slot. “If something happens contact a nurse as soon as possible.” There were a few dollars in her pocket and hopefully enough to buy something for the kid. Maybe some orange juice would renew his spirits though the ugly bruise on his face was something else to think about. He was pretty banged up and she didn’t know if he’d seen himself yet or refused to.

Hey, just a few things.

- The word wild doesn't seem to fit.. I know what you are trying to go for, but wild just seems out of place. It's more that she's independent from her parents, or something.
- In your personality, you mention she rebels in high school, but the history doesn't seem to reflect?
- Capeside isn't in Boston.
- You seem to generalize Asians a little, try to avoid that.

Also, and this is a bit nit-picky (it's an aesthetics thing) please use capitals foe the bolded trait words. Other than these few things, it's good to go!
