Blood Type: B

Job: Part time sales lead at Banana Republican. It's a very similar to a certain real-world clothing store...
Hobbies: Street Racing - Angie has a need- a need for
speed. He's been interested in cars and motorcycles since he was a wee lad, and now that he's old enough to be able to afford his own vehicle he's turned it into a second life. He's not fantastic, but he makes enough to pay the notes on his vehicle and he's managed so far to dodge the DCP. His nickname is 'Thumper', because of his habit of leaning out the window and thumping other's car roofs to startle other drivers into starting before they're flagged.
Shoujo Manga - Look, ok, despite popular belief, this is not JUST a past time for little girls! Although he'd never admit it, Angie loves him a good, sappy love story or two. Or four. Or an entire box under his bed. Don't judge him, okay? Everyone has their weaknesses. For some, it's chocolate; for Angelo, it's, well...a little more
embarassing. Secretly, he hopes his little reading collection will give him some kind of killer insight to the opposite sex - but in actuality it often causes him to behave a little sappy.
Love You Like a Love Song - Angie's OTHER favorite past time is
bad karaoke. He loves pop music and will belt it out, even while he's working. The other salespeople think it's hilarious, but that's probably because they've also seen him dancing on the tables at the local karaoke bar doing
the same thing. Fortunately, he's a good tenor, so a little Katy Perry isn't out of his vocal range. No shame, no gain is his motto, and he's not afraid to belt out a ladylike ballad even in front of his racing crew.
Many, Pedi - For someone who's into something that
sounds hardcore like street racing, Angie is oddly immaculate. There is never dirt under his nails, nor grease stains on his clothing or person. Haven't you people heard of COVERALLS or GLOVES? It goes beyond basic hygiene, however. He loves spa treatments, massages, getting his hands and feet taken care of... His body is his
temple. He even waxes.
Yes, there. He has trouble some days deciding which he loves more - his car, or his person.
Virtues: Nothing Wrong with a little Spunk - Angelo has a tendency to be pert. He hides his inner discomforts and fears behind a cocky and assertive visage. He's not afraid to take the lead in potentially dangerous situations, although he'd also happily bow to someone else's authority, as long as it helps him project an image of the Good, Brave Boy. After all, he's found a smile and a wink can get him out of trouble more often than not- and when all else fails, he's not above a little hair-flipping.
Handy Dandy - Angelo is a very hands-on kind of guy. If he's interested in something, he tends to want to learn how it's done! He's the kind of guy who might ruin a magic show by explaining the tricks as they go. Through the power of Google, the library, and a tenacious will, Angie refuses to admit that any task is too insurmountable for him. He likes participating in things actively; applying the skills he's learned rather than postulating with theorem. 'Skimming' is his watch word. A self-proclaimed 'expert' in many fields.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness - Well, it is for Angelo. Right up there to the left of Sanity. Need help tidying your dorm? Great! Well, ok, as long as it's not too much of a sty. Otherwise he won't go near it. He is very neat, and sanitized, and lots of other things that are big pros in the food industry, and also useful around the home. He's kind of like a human Roomba. His closet is meticulously organized, and every room in his apartment has a lint roller. Not that he keeps animals anyway - too much mess, too much trouble!
Flaws:Beauty is A PAIN - Angelo bathes. Regularly. His hair is always done just so (thank god for beeswax), his clothes are always impeccably pristine, and his person is otherwise remarkably tidy. This is an unbreakable routine. Come hell or high water, this boy WILL stay clean, even if it means scrubbing off with clumps of melting snow in the middle of the wilderness. He has a tendency to be rather vain about it, and will downright disregard others' requests for him to ignore personal hygiene in light of more important matters.
Fashionably Late - Deadlines are for, well. Other people. Angelo moves at one speed, and that is His Speed. Sometimes, when he's in his car on a good day, it's frighteningly fast. But on most days, well... When he is good and done with satisfying the steep requirements needed to maintain a healthy psyche, he'll make his way to wherever he was supposed to be three hours ago. He is totally unapologetic, by the way, what were you thinking, scheduling that in the middle of his bath time?
Shoot First, Ask Questions Later - Angie might not rush his personal care routine, but expect everything else to be done with perhaps more haste than necessary. He's not afraid to skip steps - even with tasks he's just learned. He can
handle it. Ok? No, he will NOT stop and
ask for directions. The downside of being a do-it-yourselfer is that he often arrives in circumstances where the only expert on hand is someone who 'read something about it online once' - I.E.,
him. This gets him in trouble sometimes - but he just can't seem to help himself. After all, he only has so much time in the day, and he's going to have to spend the rest of it cleaning up the mess he's made of everything....

More Ideas. I really like the idea of an eye catching color for the undershirt, like that yellow sweater thing.
