Name: Katrina Halloran
Nickname: Kat
Age: 19
Birthday: April 22
Sign: Taurus (Aries-Taurus Cusp)
Gemstone: Rose Quartz
Blood Type: B
Fav. Food: Seafood! Sign her up for stuffed mushrooms, salmon, crab... Will eat just about anything that comes from the sea.
Hated Food: Banana flavored laffy taffy. It doesn't taste anything like bananas.
School: N/A
Hobbies: Scrapbooking - While there are many artistic things that Kat enjoys getting her hands on, this particular form of it helps her keep organized as well. Movie stubs, newspaper articles, photos of friends, napkins; anything and everything that carries the slightest memory along with it finds itself glued to the pages of a book along with a fancy border (often hand-cut with textured scissors).
People Watching - Not always the best when it comes to direct interaction, one of Kat's favorite past-times is observing the every day lives of everyone else. If she has a few spare hours before work or class she'll find a place like the mall food court or the park and make up stories about all of the people she won't bother to introduce herself to.
Creating Fandom-based Tea Blends - Katrina has TV shows and movies and characters that she
loves and one of her favorite things to do is create teas on Adagio (or Destiny City's version of it) that she feels properly represent what one of her favorite characters would taste like if they were a tea.
Street Racing - Kat has a contact or two that keeps her in 'the know' about where the races are happening around town. She
might admit to participating in them when a friend will let her borrow their car,
or when the races involve bikes. Ask her about her custom paint job sometime...
Virtues: Meticulous - Katrina believes that every detail is important and makes sure that this comes through in her day-to-day life. She plans out every outfit from the shade of her eyelashes down to the laces of her shoes, but it goes beyond that. Kat's meticulousness also means that she follows through on everything with that same precise, thorough determination. Project needs finished by a certain deadline? Kat's up until the last minute putting on the final touches. Party for a friend needs planning? Kat makes sure their favorite food is there along with all of their favorite people. How did she
know? Because it's all about the little things, down to the very last one.
Outgoing - A scrap book wouldn't mean much without photos of friends and memories to fill it. With that in mind, Katrina often reaches out to make nice with others. She'll step up happily and make introductions without batting an eye, offering her hand and a smile. Would you like to go for tea later? Wonderful!
Creative - Kat is good at thinking quick on her feet; taking nothing and turning it into something. Only a handful of things in the pantry? Let's hodge-podge them into a casserole. Bits and pieces leftover from abandoned projects? Let's make them into art. The sky's the limit and with the right bit of imagination
anything is possible.
Flaws:Arrogant - Being so outgoing and generally wonderful, Kat doesn't understand why people
wouldn't want to spend time with her. She knows that she's wonderful and obviously other people should know this as well. Wait... You mean they don't?
Nonsense.
Daredevil - Kat lives for the thrill. There's something to be said for the absolute
rush of doing something crazy or dangerous and it's something that Katrina just can't get enough of. Heights? Not a problem. Speed? The faster the better. This adventurous streak is wonderful until the DCPD gets involved and then it's just problematic...
Personal Space Invader - Is Kat standing too close? Did she startle you by leaning over your shoulder while trying to figure out what you were doing without just asking you? Sorry! Well... Not sorry, actually. Kat just doesn't seem to have a proper understanding of personal bubbles and is often crossing that line that was clearly drawn between yours and hers. This can sometimes include stealing that last fry that you totally weren't going to eat. You... Weren't
really going to eat it, weren't you?

Clothes: http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=178460544 <- general aesthetic. Likes mixing dark with BRIGHT. Pink is her favorite bright, obviously, although the others all have their time and place as well.
