-----This section discusses Round's interests and dislikes in detail. This section contains her hobbies, job, past time, as well as her favorite movies, books, and animes. Her dislikes will mostlikely include names of past enemies on Gaia and her dislikes involving IRL...so stay tuned:
---Round's current interests:
--If there is one thing Round enjoys the most, its creativity. By truckloads she would worship the world's creativity of all things good enough to be called creative.
Creativity in her youth:
-For a long time now, Round has led her life through creativity. With legos, she would tear apart pirate ships and space ships and castles to make a huge flying fortress of doom. It was with Mighty Max that she first learned how to organize an adventure.
Round never really was into tea parties, or taking care of little dolls, she would much rather force the dolls to battle one another until one would surrender in pity, while the other celebrated in glory. Although it is believed that a girl is destined to find a "Prince Charming" of some sort to protect her, she always felt it was much more fun to join in the protecting, rather than be the one protected!
But it is not through dolls or Legos that Round first sparked her interests in all things creative..it is through a busy father with a semi-transparent pad of computer paper, a pencil, and a Micky Mouse coloring book that Round first experience her tuffle with creativity:
At the age of 5, Round's father was due to fix a problem present in their newly bought home. Unfortunate for him, he also had to keep Round entertained until her mother would return from visiting her grandmother's. So being a vivid problem solver, Round's dad took out some printing paper and told Round to trace over a page in a coloring book of Pluto until he could finish his work. So trace she did, clumbsy with the pencil, Round managed to trace an almost identical drawing of Pluto! So identical, that it even cought the attention of her father!!
And so began a tradition that would last for many years. Round soon abandoned the frustrating tracing task through coloring books, and concentrated in creating her own little characters. Daily she would return from school drawing the adventures she had in her kindergarden class with the toys there.
As time went on, Round's skill in drawing increased, until about 4th grade, where Round just suddenly stopped! This was near the time when Round's parents were getting into many loud arguments, and she could hardly sleep at night. But it was in the 7th grade that Round discovered Anime..that which rekindled her interest in drawing, and creativity all together!
Ever since then Round drawings continued to improve, but a huge leap in her love for drawing and creativity occured when she met the greatest teacher she has met to date: Jim Desario, a college teacher in a local private school found in Hartford, Conneticut.
This man told her the value of drawing pictures through messy but organized shapes, rather through strict and unorganized bold outlines. He also said a statement that will live with her forever:
"Art is amazing. I feel I am privileged to have what I have, and use it to make not others, but myself truely happy. For it is you who are important, your art is all that matters..always believe this. However, do not ignore the art of others, infact do not ignore ANY art at all. Throughout my years many different and unexpecting artists have somehow inspired me, and I guarentee it will you too. And remember that a true artist is not someone who can simply draw the most realistic looking art, its the individual that can breath and taste the art they make. They make it come alive, as if it were their own child. A living representation of you and who you are! Many will tell you that your art is wrong, and that you are destined for failure, but it is you who must then tell them 'NO'. For you will only fail if you allow it to happen." --Jim Desario
Creativity now:
-Still the Legos and sketches are a daily part of Round's creative process..but she has taken her creativity a step further. Round hates to draw other existing characters, or copy them from another picture. She finds this too easy. "Takes all the fun out of it." she would often say. She had lit a flame of interest for colors, and how they work to express beautiful emotions, but this rests as her weak point..being able to accurately depict the desired colors to canvas.
Round's future intentions with art is character design/main direction of Cartoon movies and video games. Already Round has developed at least 10 cartoon/movie/videogame ideas that she is proud enough to bring to the public. As well as countless character designes for many different genres.
Round would draw on Gaia if there were not two huge problems standing in her way...1) Her computer does not work, so she is unable to use photoshop to color in her pictures/put them in the computer for internet access...2) She often times procrastinates to a rediculous degree...where she almost never gets anything done, but she is working on this.

---Dislikes, and enemies:
--Round actually possesses few "enemies" in Gaia or IRL, but she has a plethera of dislikes! ^_^
Dislikes:
-If there is anything Round hates, its a lack of responsability for ones actions and choices. She becomes discusted when someone justs gives up on a task without even trying. She also hates people who do something wrong, and run in hope they will not be blamed for their actions. With this, Round also hates seeing someone be given something they did not earn, especially when it is done from the hands of those who did earn it((you could imagine her position on the abuse of Welfare in this country)). Round hates it when people complain, but never do anything about that which they are complaining about. Round greatly dislikes it when she is decieved, or someone steals from her. For she will even kill a man if ever he were to take a single dollar from her. Its not the dollar that counts, its the allowance for someone to believe others exists solely to take money and other goods from. The principle involved. Round dislikes other things, but aparently not enough to list them here((and for anyone who might question, even though I myself am complaining, I actually work politically to enforce my beliefs, and will reject anyone who proves other than that which I expect in a good friend/mate. Complain...but takes actions))....
Enemies on:
Gaia: SolitaryShamhan, Fantasy Gamer, Able_the_Wicked, MiraiInuyasha...and thats all right now..
IRL: I cannot remember his name exactly, but his first name is Brian((yeah..very specific I know)) sweatdrop He not only stole on many occasions, as well as fit every bit of my "dislikes criteria", but he has slapped my younger sister!! If I ever see him, I will be sure to make him feel the most pain he will ever feel.
Finally the only other person I hate is my previous Guidance Councelor, Ms. Dimaro of MHS, Middletown Conn...this women throughout my HighSchool years have attempted to hold me back in every class I succeeded in, "Because she knew I was not 'Qualified' to be a member of that class." I recall friction got so bad between us, she re-organized the names of who would go with what guidance councelor just so I would not be with her, but with someone else more tolerable. Literally my last name was the boundary line between the two councelors!!
Well that is it...all about my likes and dislikes...so...whatever! ^_^
