appearance:

well, i guess you could say that i'm pretty. i get called beautiful all of the time, but i ignore it for the most part. i guess you could say i was lucky, too. my gene pool isn't exactly the worst. i'm tall and lanky, and although in my previous relationships it had sometimes been...for the worse, it normally works out in my favor. i guess i'll start with my face. i've got a pretty nice bone structure; it's an almost perfect oval, but i break out a lot, so it requires a lot of concealer some days. i've been asked a lot to do head shots as well as other types of modeling, but honestly, my work lies solely with animals right now. i have a rather large forehead when my hair is pulled back, but it looks fine when i have my hair down. speaking of my hair, it's a tad longer past my shoulders. i normally have it down whenever i'm not at the office, because i like it better that way. my hair is layered and it used to be naturally wavy, but now the waves are starting to die out and straight hair is showing through. i do have to admit, i miss my wavy locks.

my hair is blonde and it goes along well with the paleness of my skin as well as my somewhat large, blue-green eyes. when i look at myself in the mirror, they seem set just right. my eyebrows are slightly too thin, but for me, i think they work. my nose is a tad too big, but i can't be perfect, although i have to remind myself every day when i wash my face or take a look into the mirror. i think i'm just going through a phase for the time being. my lips are full, which i like. they draw attention to the rest of my features. my chin is rounded and softer compared to some of my other features, which i also like, because it softens up my sometimes intense looks.

i'm a bit of a health freak when it comes to food and exercise, so i'm thin. people notice, but i'm actually proud of the way my body looks - for the most part. the thing that shocks people are how thin my neck is and how my collarbone sticks out just slightly more than the average person. everything about my upper body is small and well...skin and bones, as my mother used to say. i was never big - even the day i was born. i needed special care because i was so thin and small. my mum had to order clothes special to fit my small body. she always told me ui was lucky and wouldn't grow out of it. she also said it was lucky that i would grow so tall. you see - my mother and father are both very tall, so i got that gene passed down to me luckily. i looked a lot like my sister as well, but...i don't like to get into that so much.

my skin is a milky white year-round. i'm not sure whether i'm lucky that it looks that way or if i wish i tanned. i'm actually medically diagnosed with an allergy to the sun's rays. it's nothing bad - it's not life threatening or anything, but certain parts of my body are covered in hives if i spend too much time in the sun, so i prefer the cooler shade. i always have, really. my shoulders are very feminine. they are not too thick but they aren't too bony, either. they lead down to my thin, long arms. i have long arms and fingers as well. my mum always used to admit that i would make a phenomenal pianist, but i tried for a few lessons and i did well, don't get me wrong, i just didn't enjoy myself. i preferred reading when i was young. i still worked my fingers, i just wasn't hitting those black and white keys, i was turning pages white pages filled with black ink. it's really the same, just...not. i guess. ha.

my chest area is small, needless to say. sometimes i wonder if that'll ever grow. i don't...mind it, because they don't get in the way of anything (thank god), but i can't help but be jealous of other people sometimes. i've really got the body of a gymnast, but i'm hardly as flexible as they are. i always wear a necklace that takes peoples eyes away from my chest and brings them to the hollow just below my throat. it's a horseshoe and a crystal cross that i received as a graduation gift from my grandmother when i was finally done with university earlier on in the year. you see, they have plenty of money, and they helped me out with my loans and such. they're even supporting me while i'm making my money with my new practice in barnes. i love that little town.

anyway, i'm going off topic here. where did i finish off earlier before i went on my little charade? oh, right. my chest. well, i don't really want to get into that much detail right now, so we'll just stick with the fact of the matter: i have a small chest. i don't do anything about it like some girls. i accept myself the way i am. most of the time, anyway. i've got a little bit of a pouch in my stomach area, but i'm working on getting rid of it right now. it's not very flattering, but i've just started to eat much healthier than i used to. i still have biscuits and such laying around that i go to during desperate times, but...i try to ignore those cravings. i'd really like abs. an anything-pack, honestly. i really find that it's imperative that i stay in shape due to how often i'm staying still during the days. it's not all fun and games, being a vet. i'm inside almost all of the time unless i get called out to a job with horses. which i consider to be my lucky day if so.

my legs are really long and lean. i feel as if they support me while i run. as a child, i always got growing pains, but they're all done now, i suppose. i like the way my legs look, especially in heels. secretly, i enjoy dressing up, but i never have any opportunity to do so unless i want to look like a dork. i love the hustle and bustle of london, but i'm always busy when my friends from uni want to go out. i feel like now they have started not asking just because they know my answer will be no ninety percent of the times they ask. maybe it's me, maybe it's them, but either way, i don't get out as much as i should. i really need it. my legs are thin, although like my stomach, i'm working on improving the tone of their muscles. i have rather large knees which gave me some problem in sixth form, but with a brace while running, it's really not a problem. thanks to my long legs, i have weak ankles as well. my feet are rather large, so i prefer to keep them hidden away from plain view. i'm a bit of a freak when it comes to feet, really. just ask my old roomie from when i had my last apartment in london. i just...don't like feet. my nails are painted almost eighty percent of the time, because seeing them colored brightly makes me happy.

i do have to admit. i'm a bit of a fashion nerd. i enjoy wearing nice clothes, although half the time i'm wearing obnoxiously coloured scrubs. i especially love my bright blue scrubs with horses on them. hehe, i'm just joking around. i love dresses, whether they're form fitting or cute sun dresses, they seem to work well for my body. wedges work well for me, also, but i seldom wear them when i'm at work. i normally get away from my scrubs and wear my lab coat, but sometimes i just feel like going back to my interning days and wear my scrubs. they hang less nicely on me, but they're just that much more comfortable. sometimes, i'll even wear them around the house, because i'm just such an amazing person. i suppose you could say i'm a mix between a girly girl and a tom boy. i enjoy sweats for lounging around the house, but when i'm out and about, all i really care about is how i look. i suppose half of it is because i'm not in a committed relationship, so i don't quite care as much when i'm at home how people look at me.

( theinterior )

• animals are my thing

well, as many of you will probably learn, i'm an animal lover. i always have been, ever since i can remember. i love all animals, large, small, in between, scaly, furry. whatever animal and i'll take a liking to it. i'm not exactly one to love snakes or smaller animals, but i would never tell anyone that. ever. i wouldn't want to hurt my practise or my patients, would i? i went to school and worked too hard to not love all living creatures. although despite what others might believes, i'm not a tree hugger, either.

• healthy is as healthy does

i don't even know if that makes sense, but it works for me. i'm a very fit person. i like to run in the evenings, when the parks are almost nearly empty. it's cooler, and i don't wonk up my sleep schedule, either. although i admire those who wake up and run before dawn, i don't believe i would ever do it and like it. i like to run outside because i feel like the scenery makes the whole idea of working out that much better.

• thunder is not my friend

i really dislike thunderstorms. i'm okay with rain, but the thunder and lightning aspect of a storm really get to me. i like to believe that if i was a dog, i'd run under a bed with my tail in between my legs. i love it most when it rains especially hard during thunderstorms. for some reason, it makes it a little less scary, which is odd, because it should be more scary. i like to curl up on my couch and watch movies and eat popcorn during thunderstorms.

• memory's my forte

i have a photographic memory - that's one of the reasons i took to becoming a vet, i knew that schoolwork wouldn't be as hard for me. unfortunately, that didn't stop me from studying constantly. i like to read, and it's good for me because i can actually pick up a book, read a few pages, leave it for a few days, and then come back and remember exactly what happened and where i left off. i enjoy having a photographic memory, although sometimes i feel like i'm cheating with myself.

• if my relations were a ship, it would be called titanic

i've never been much when it comes to relationships. more than eighty percent of my relationships were in college, and i can guarantee that they ended because of my study habits. they liked me for my looks, but didn't realize how much i took to school. i honestly don't believe that i'll find the right guy. maybe being an old maid is better off for me, who knows? i certainly don't. sometimes i feel as if i'm wasting my time going out and searching for the perfect guy. maybe he'll come find me.

likes:

i like a lot of things, actually. i consider myself to be a very happy-go-lucky type of person. although my likes outweigh my dislikes in life, i still have some, but i'll talk about those a little later. i guess it would be easier to talk about them one by one, right? well, one of the things that i like the most is being outdoors. although i...well, like i said, i'd get to my other likes later. when i was younger, i always used to go hiking with my grandpa. he'd hunt, and well - obviously i didn't - i took pictures with his (now very old looking) camera. i always liked the fresh air, and i enjoyed the sightings of animals you normally didn't see on an everyday basis. we camped sometimes, too, but i wasn't very apt on it. i really enjoy photography, too. i'm no professional, but i do think it's pretty cool. i don't know, it's just...something that calms me down; something about capturing the sunset perfectly gathering silhouettes along with it. i don't even have a digital slr - i don't even know what i would do with it if i got it! i spend my money on more important things like computers. i'm pretty snazzy with computers. when i attended uni, i took some side courses on technology as well as computer science, and i really enjoyed it. for some reason, my college had a nice batch of macs, and so i was able to fall in love with them. i have a macbook pro at home, and my receptionist uses a mac as well - it's really great for her. i trust her completely. although i'm done with school, i still like to keep up with computers some way. animals are my passion, but you probably already know that. all animals, really, but i especailly like horses, dogs, and cats. those are my specialities, and all of my clients would say so. another sport i do is horseback riding. i've got a western pleasure horse who i use for trails, who is bombproof, and i have my three-day horse who is more high strung and temperamental. nevertheless, i love them both to death.

dislikes: the things i dislike may even out to the things i like, now that i think about it. i'm actually quite picky. although it seems quite rash, snakes and spiders are two of the things i dislike most about my jobs. it's just something about them. lucky for me, the people in barnes don't have too many of the dreaded creatures. snakes are too snakey and spiders are too spidery. that's my excuse for why i don't like them. i don't have a solid answer on that one. sailing freaks me the hell out. every time i've been asked on a sailboat i've freaked out. i just get the strange feeling that the person operating the boat doesn't know what they're doing, and so i sit there, green in the face, and don't talk much, because i'm afraid i'll be sick with nervousness. other than sailing, i'm fine on the water. as a matter of fact, i quite like jetskiing. i know this may sound crazy, but i'm actually not a chocolate type of person. i don't like milk chocolate. white chocolate is okay if it is in moderation, but apart from that, i don't like chocolate. it's something about the taste - definitely not the texture. i actually don't feel bad about that one because i know people who don't like it as well. well, i guess i could also say that briefs on a guy don't exactly draw my attention. of course, it's their style, but i prefer to see my men in boxers, heh.

strengths: my strengths? ah, well. i've got plenty of those! just kidding, i'm far from narcissistic. don't you worry. i find that my one biggest strength would be my ability to bond with animals very quickly. i'm no animal whisperer - god be with me if i were - but i tend to just...get them. another one of my strengths would actually be my ability to self motivate, especially when i'm working my ass off, whether i'm working out or just plain working. i find it quite easy to mentally prepare and coax myself to a point where it doesn't seem as bad as it should. i suppose i should say i'm lucky, eh?

weaknesses: my weaknesses? are you asking if i'm weak? no, no, just being a joker again. my largest weakness would actually be my ability to carry on a normal conversation. it's actually quite funny...how i just can't seem to act normal when i'm talking to someone new. it's not even that i'm uncomfortable...i just act off. weird, right? well, if you try to carry on a conversation with me and you don't know me, expect a little uncomfortable silence sometimes. at least i don't do the one word answers, right?

( thehistory )

parents:mary and don leigh. mary is fifty-two, and as for don...i wouldn't quite know. i didn't know him before i was born. sorry to disappoint. mary does something in her life, although i wouldn't know either, we don't speak to one another any more. my father is deceased, yes.

siblings: i have a sister, yes. she would be nineteen now. she doesn't have a job, no. and i can't say whether she's alive or dead. it's not exactly a subject matter that i enjoy speaking about. okay?

other family: my grandmother and grandfather have a summer home in barnes. their winter home is actually in the carribean somewhere. i've been before, but i can't remember much of it. they support everything i do, and i love them very much so.

history: hm. where do i start? as a child, i was very spoiled. i spent every summer with my wealthy grandparents at their summer home in barnes, and during the school year, i was sent to loreto - an all girls school. when i was younger, i think for...nursery, i went to a co-educational school, but my grandparents didn't like it, and so they sent me to a different school until the second part of my sixth year. from there on, i earned the luck of being top of my class. i know, i sound so very...spoiled, but honestly, i've just studied to keep away all of my thoughts from...other things. i went to uni in london and actually attended the royal veterinarian school there. i finished my studies, and my grandparents offered to support me for a few years as i got off my feet and opened my own vet practise in barnes. see, they all needed to go to separate towns because there was no vet until i got there, so it was actually quite a nice opportunity. so, now i'm living in barnes full time, and spending every sunday evening at my grandparent's house there. i commute to work you see - i have an apartment in london, but i spend a lot of time in barnes because of my two horses, who i love to bits and pieces. i would have a dog because i love them as well, but i've got a kitten at my apartment instead. not enough room for a dog.

i'll finish this when i have the time

anything else?: her relationship status is closed. (:

( aneededaccessory )

name: addy. (sweet addiction)

breed: percheron/thoroughbred mix.

age: 11 years.

height: 17.2 hands.

description: addy, as everyone around the barn calls him, is a very large, very temperamental sport horse. he's a black gelding, and yet in the summer, various parts of his large body are bleached due to the suns attraction to his dark coloured fur. he's a horgeous guy, i have to admit, but he's got some quirky features about him. he has rather large ears and they seem floppy all of the time. he's also got a loose lower lip due to some nerve damage, but it's what gives him his uniquie, always relaxed disposition. and this guy is far from relaxed. he's got a star on his forehead which almost meets the stripe that works down his nose, and he's got a rather large pink snip on the end of his nose. he's got a sock on his left hind leg, and his hoof is lighter as well. he's quite stocky, but that's what makes him the best sport horse for me.

personality: coming soon.
