Who I Am Inside
Likes: Hiking; Swimming; Hunting, Connor was raised in a family where this was a sort of rite of passage; Lacrosse; Running; Live music, he loves going to shows; Bret Easton Ellis, he enjoys such books by this author as American Psycho and The Rules of Attraction; The Boondock Saints movies are some of his all-time favorites; Lady Gaga, but don’t mention it, he’s a closet-Monster; Country and indie music is what he's really into; Parties (Who doesn’t like a party?); Playing DDR (Yeah, so? You got a problem?); Health foods/protein bars/etc, Connor is kind of a health nut.
Dislikes: Sitting around in one place too long; Authority (What self-respecting teenager does like it?); Arrogant people and snobs, Connor is what could be called “middle class” and he doesn’t take to kindly to people who honor “class distinctions” in this day and age (Or so he says.); Smoking and/or drinking, among other things he views as "unhealthy"; Being questioned too much, it makes him uneasy when he lacks the conviction of his actual statement; Chemistry, its his least favorite subject; Flamboyance, it also makes him uneasy.
Strengths: He’s very competitive; Determined, if Connor wants something he will not stop until he achieves it; Sociable, he makes friends rather easily; Energetic, Connor has a lot of excess energy and this helps him complete tasks more quickly; Running, its one of his favorite things to do; Singing, despite his objections to singing publicly Connor is actually very good at it and he loves doing it.
Weaknesses: He is what could be called ADD and has an incredibly hard time focusing on much of anything; He can get too competitive and this often clouds his judgment or wins him enemies because he gets so fired up; Can be way too friendly, this leads to the male sometimes trusting people he shouldn’t; A little closed-minded, he believes one way and it can take a lot for him to change his mind or see another person’s point of view; Science and math related classes, Connor is horrible at these subjects; Stubborn, he will continue to do something he's set his mind on even if everything points to it being wrong or him winding up in trouble.
Fears: Not being good enough, he strives to be the best at most of what he does (especially sports) and will not tolerate failing; His father, the man is very strict and though Connor dislikes authority he still longs for the approval of his father; Being heard singing, he's got a little stage-fright that he's unwilling to admit to; Experimentation, he doesn't want to "come to terms" with anything and just hopes it'll eventually go away; Serious injury, it would mean the end of everything he loves.
Personality: Connor has a few personality quirks that most people find endearing and charismatic, but can also be very irritating. He isn’t particularly shy and to anyone who knows him will probably describe him as a ball of manic energy. The male has to be kept preoccupied otherwise he’ll get bored and effectively into some sort of trouble.
