mirror mirror on the wall, have i got it?
i'm finding it's not easy to be perfect.
eye colour; Blue
hair colour; Blonde
height; 5'4"
other physical traits; Natalie's blonde hair is naturally curly. Occasionally she'll grow bored with the whole golden curls thing and will straighten it and when she does her hair reaches nearly down to her waist. Her eyes are a light blue which does sometimes get mistaken for green or grey and always underline by a thick streak of eye liner and framed with mascara. She has a pretty and delicate bone structure, but her face is slightly square although not noticably. She has a pretty pleasant face which is slightly generic looking. She does not stand out as beautiful, but nor is she ugly. Her body is thin and generally petite, with pale unblemished skin.
clothing style; Natalie loves to wear most anything. Her typical style and favourite outfit is patterned dresses in dark colours that come to her knees or just above, tights in bright solid colours and large laced up black boots. She also likes wearing three quarter length jeans, with long socks underneath in winter and without in summer. Her t-shirts vary dramatically from bright plain colours to faded slogans, and in any style whether clinging to her figure or men's shirts. She's unpredictable and will wear anything, always willing to give any style or garment a try. She does also go days without getting dressed and will spend this time lounging around in an oversized t-shirt. Socks are without a doubt her favourite garment as she loves all the different colours, materials and styles, but when she goes dancing she'll often wear leg warmers and sometimes likes to leave them on any way.
what i really meant to say[/font][/blockquote]
is that i'm sorry for the way i am.
good traits;
Crazy; Natalie is absolutely off her rocker and she loves it. She's crazy, random and she loves nothing more than to have a good time whether or not she makes a fool of herself in the process. She really like all things different, the crazier the better, and is always willing to give anything at all a try. Her favourite thing in the world is to dance around, whether in an organised fashion or just a spontaneous burst of movement.
Sunshine; Natalie is little miss sunshine. Chirpy and optimistic, it's very rare for anything at all to bring her down. She always looks like she's holding in a laugh and has gotten to the point where her face actually starts to ache if she's not smiling.
Honest; If she has something to say, you're going to hear it. Once there's something on her mind, she's not just going to keep it in there. She does not approve or lying and if she has a secret that is harming someone else, she won't keep it to herself. She likes things and people that are open and encourages others to be so. She just can't keep things, significant or trivial, to herself.
All heart; Natalie is just literally all heart. She does not have a mean bone in her body and anyone can see that. It's almost as if she radiates warmth. She's exceptionally loving towards all living creatures and it's not unusual for her to place wounded animals in shoeboxes and cart them off to the vets office. She's got a maternal streak, even if so far she's not managed motherhood herself, and loves to take care of other people.
flaws;
Restless; Natalie is one of those types of people who's all go, go, go! She can't stand it when things stand still or go slowly and has a tendency for rushing them along. She likes things to be ever-changing and ever-interesting and hates it when things fall into a routine or a pattern.
Willfully ignorant; Natalie hates to know when things aren't going right. She has been known to simply blank out bad things and pretend they're not happening. She does not like to be brought down from her cloud, and if something's going to do that then she'll either ignore it or insist that things are perfectly alright or at least will be soon. She will not deal with negativity or seriousness well.
Tactless; Her honesty does have a downside. She literally won't keep anything to herself. She doesn't really stop to think if her opinions or thoughts will be hurtful to anyone present before she says them out loud. And sometimes she'll be aware that what she says will hurt, but she believes in being direct and that there's no point in keeping things locked up in her head when she should just get them out in the open.
Ditz; Natalie is a little bit a ditz. She's smart enough to get into Ravenclaw with no problem, but feels she would have probably been better suited for Hufflepuff. She's got a rather large girly streak and she likes to look nice and buy new clothes, but it's not an all-consuming desire or anything. She can also be a little bit airheaded at times when she's not concentrating. Academics are of no trouble to her, but trivia and common knowledge generally escape her. Sometimes of course, she's just plain not paying attention.
habits;
Natalie has been known to randomly break into whistling or song. Her voice is pleasant and harmonious, but she does sing loudly with whatever song that pops into her head. She also loves to make up songs on the spot and start singing them.
She's also prone to breaking into dance. Having always loved to be moving and drifting around, she does it without thinking about it. Whenever she feels restless or cannot stay in the same spot for any longer before she screams, she'll just start dancing around or hopping from foot to foot. Those who know her well are used to it, but it can put other people off especially if they are in the middle of talking to her.
Another habit of Natalie's is her concentration face. People right through her life up to the present day; teachers, family members, friends, boyfriends, they've all found it very irritating that whenever she's paying really hard attention she gets a glassy eyed look and looks as if she's not paying any attention at all.
She doesn't really have any habits that are bad beyond the point where they're annoying. She doesn't smoke, she doesn't drink, she doesn't take drugs, she doesn't hurt herself or anyone else. She's almost sensible that way.

brief history; Natalie is the second oldest of four sisters. In keeping with her nature of chosing to be oblivious, she paid as little attention as possible during her childhood. She can barely remember her mother dying and she can't remember much about her at all. She spent a lot of time drifting in and out of relatives houses during her childhood and being mostly oblivious to everything going on around her and in her own house.
Sorted into Ravenclaw like most of the rest of her family, she surprised herself. She'd always thought she'd end up in Hufflepuff, as she didn't really think she was smart enough to be a Ravenclaw. She was glad none the less that she'd made it and very proud of herself. It was only just after her graduation that she was 'murdered' by her cousin, Nathaniel Waverly. Nathaniel was a Death Eater and supposedly used the killing curse on her, but in the end he took pity on her and told her to disappear, then reported back that she was dead.
Her plans then of joining the Order and of meeting a nice wizard to settle down with were cut dramatically short. She disappeared across the country and started a very quiet life in a tiny village. She was instantly accepted there and made friends amongst her own age. Faking her own documents and previous exam results, she attended college in the muggle world and when she graduated became an intern at a small local hospital.
Through all this time, she kept a keen ear on news she recognised from the wizarding world and followed the events of the war carefully. She often toyed with returning to her family, becoming an Order member and joining the fight against the Dark Lord but never quite had the guts to do so.
It was when a patient came into the hospital she worked at with clear wounds from a magical encounter that Natalie finally felt she was doing some good in the world. While the other doctors and emergency staff floundered, she treated him with her knowledge of what had happened to him in the first place and managed to save his life. While some heralded her as a miracle worker and some put it down to luck, she glowed because of it. She decided to stay in the muggle world, moving to a bigger hospital and treating more patients with similar magic induced injuries. She thought that she was doing much more good saving muggle lives than she ever would be doing if she was fighting with the Order.
When the war came to an end, Natalie finally took a break. Once again, she toyed with the idea of returning home and rejoining her family, but once again decided against it. She reasoned that after being gone so long she would just mess her family and their families up if she came back and turned things upside down. Much as it pained her, she thought it best if she just stayed away.
She started dating, but she couldn't find anyone right for her. They were all too serious, too fake, too-...there was always something wrong. Her restless nature dictated that she could not stay with anyone she had met so far for any longer than a couple of months. It wasn't long before she began to grow terribly lonely. Natalie decided it was about time she went home.
So, that's her plan. She sold her small home, packed up her things and returned the muggle way to London to search out her family, or whatever might be left of it.
