Hobbies:
Dancing - Abby loves to dance. She is learning everything from tap to ballroom, from ballet to tango, and from interpretive to tribal. Every Sunday she is in class learning something new. Her mom danced ballroom and passed the love of dance down to Abby although Abby has yet to find a particular genre that she loves more then the others. She frequently participates in recitals, competitions, and demonstrations. She doesn't need to be in the spot light she just needs to do her best.
Cooking - Abby sees it as a form of magic, being able to take raw ingredients and make them into something edible. Although she is only 10 she is an accomplished cook in the sense that she makes great cookies and cakes, her spaghetti is fantastic, and you have not likely had a grilled cheese sandwich this good before. Abby enjoys cooking and sharing the results with others. It is also a great way to spend some quality time with her dad
Bird Watching - When her mom was in the hospital Abby and her would spend hours watching the birds in the garden from the window. For Abby watching birds is a way to remember those last few months with her mom with a smile. She can be found just siting in a park watching as the birds flit from branch to branch, listening to the chirps and calls.
Virtues:
Dedicated - When Abby commits to something she sticks with it, whether its a friendship or a school project. She does not give up on it but works at it. Its like dance... it takes dedication, practice, and hard work to make something as simple as a waltz look effortless and she takes this same dedication in dance and uses it in other parts of her life. Are you working on a hard project with Abby? Don't worry she wont give up until its done right. Did you and Abby have a really big fall out? Given a few days Abby will do her best to patch it up... friendships are hard to handle sometimes but she is dedicated to keeping you as a friend. Is Abby bad at something she really wants to do? She will work at it and practice at it until she is at least not as bad as she once was. She might not be a A student but she wont put up with a F if she can help it.
Helpful - Abby is the girl you go to if you have a project and need a person who is going to pull their weight. She is always helping around the house and in the community. The little old lady down the road is struggling to weed her garden, Abby will help. That kid in the corner failed his last math test, Abby will help him study. She might not be terribly outgoing but she is more then willing to help most anyone with most anything and once she starts it she will finish it... that is a promise.
Organized - A place for everything and everything in its place. Abby nearly lives by this motto and she has no problem helping others live by it too. She can tell you where anything is in a space she organized; her homework? In the front section of the binder for that subject, those cute blue flats that you saw her wearing last week? In her closet with the other flats, next to the white ones with the bow. Because she is so organized she rarely looses things, if she does its normally because someone else put it where it doesn't belong, and things that require a timely fashion like homework is always done neatly, comprehensibly, and turned in on time. And she loves helping other's get their lives together too... let her help organize your room, your school binder, your closet.... she lives to set things right after all she has little control over things like where she lives but she, by god, will know where everything is at least.
Flaws:
Possessive - While Abby will help you by letting you borrow a pencil she does want it back and will hound you until you give it back. She will ask about it nearly constantly... 'are you done yet', ' you didn't chew on it did you', or 'how did you snap it in half'. If you borrow something of hers give it back in the same if not better condition or she will remind you about it for... the.... rest.... of..... your.... life, I kid you not. And those things that she considers only hers? She wont share... her room, her mother's necklace, her teddy bear, her father... you haven't seen a polite fit till you see Abby have one
Set In Her Ways - Abby likes doing things her way and is not happy to be told differently. Tea should always be served right after school and include light sandwiches and fruit... if it is not she goes quiet and fixes it her damn self... and wont share, don't bother asking. Cars are meant to be driven on the left side of the road but since America is backwards she refuses to ever learn to drive. Her science papers will always be turned in using metric not 'standard'... bahhh Fahrenheit. She isn't in your face about it but she will quietly go about doing it her way or wont do it at all, when it comes to things like games.
Underhandedly Bossy - Abby likes to be in charge but she isn't pushy about it... much. Delegation is a good thing and Abby is good at it. She 'suggest' things like person A doing the chopping while person B does the grating while she does the mixing, but in reality its more of a order then a suggestion, just phrased nicely. She pulls her weight but she still likes to be in charge and when she isn't she still suggests things and pushes for her suggestions to be used. She will argue for the suggestions and will sulk if they are not used... after all she is the boss of everything.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Rich, chocolate brown, almond eyes.
Hair: Black, wavy, and curly when wet. Relatively short, the longest Abby has ever had it was shoulder length.
Face: High cheekbones, pointed chin... what would likely be called a pixie face.
Clothes: Abby normally dresses very properly and nicely. Her shirts are clean and not wrinkled, her pants are not raggedy and fit properly, and her shoes will match her outfit someway, even if its just the accessories. The only thing that might not match is her mom's locket that Abby always wears and never takes off, except in the tub or the pool ^^'
