Opinionated|Adventurous|Rebel
Name: Lita Sevrina Strummer
Nickname(s): Strum, Lili
Major: Fashion
Age: Twenty
Grade: Junior
Birthdate: October 14, 1988
Orientation: Straight, though always willing to try many things
Location: New York City, New York
`Appearance ,,
Lita is big on style, though her sense of style may not go with what everyone considers "mainstream". She's not afraid to go against the grain and show some skin. The clothes, preferably her shirts, are form-fitting as well as tight on most days. She loves showing her cleavage, even though most would prefer she didn't. There are a few colors that she seems to live by: black, red and purple. She has a lot of shirts, bottoms, and dresses in those colors predominately. If she ever wears a dress or skirt, one can rest assured that fishnets will accompany it.
As far as the rest of her appearance, it depends on her mood. She, like many other women, have their days when make-up is more of a burden than anything. On those days, she will forgo it entirely. But for the most part, Lita prefers dark, heavy eye-liner and lipstick. She's known for her pierced nose and eyebrow, as well as her pierced tongue and belly button. She has a few tattoos over various places on her body. She has one on her lower back, her right ankle, and her arm. She also has one on her chest. That one, she regrets completely. The only other striking feature about her is her dyed hair. She started dying it young. Naturally, it's a dark brown, but she has since dyed it black and will occasionally add in red streaks, or if she's feeling very bold, she might dye her entire hair blue or something wild of that nature.
As far as her height and weight go, Lita is nothing remarkable in either department. She stands at 5 ft. 2 inches and weighs 135 pounds. Yes, she's a little overweight, but she's curvy and busty as well, so it sort of amplifies it all. Of course with her wearing her tight outfits, it's easy to see all of her curves. She has olive skin and dark brown eyes. Overall, she's short, curvy, likes to dabble in all things dark and has a piercing fetish.

Best Feature: "I think my best feature, appearance wise, would probably be my nose. I know it's kind of weird and not too many people seem to be too fond of it, but I like my nose. It just kicks ass, for lack of a better word. I couldn't wait to get it pierced."
Worst Feature: "My love handles! No, seriously, I think my stomach, hips and thighs are just out of control. I really need to lose some weight, just a little bit. I think for my height, I'm a little too big, so my weight is probably my worst feature. Does that count?" [/size]
`Personality ,,
Opinionated: Lita has a big mouth and even bigger opinions. Though it's always good for one to express themselves, sometimes, she tends to take it to a whole other level. She has a habit of forcing her opinions on others and can't understand why someone else might not agree with her on something. This sort of alienates her from many of her classmates, as well as some of her teachers. She just disregards many other ideas if they don't mesh well with her form of thinking.
Adventurous: It's no surprise that Lita is an adventurous person. It's like it was bred into her or something. She likes to take risks and try out new things. She's the sort of person that just can't be content sitting down and not doing anything. Whether it be jumping from planes, getting tattooed or pierced, or even hopping onstage to sing with strangers, Lita is there. She doesn't have any reservations about her actions, and thinks very rarely about consequences. She lives for the moment.
Rebel: Going along with her adventurous side, Lita is a known rebel. She tries to rebel against everything if she can. If this means having to dress or look a certain way, she'll do it. If it means having to behave one way, she'll do that. She just has a serious problem with authority figures and gets off making their lives as difficult as possible. She loves rebelling all the time.

Positive Traits:
Upfront- Lita doesn't like to lie, and doesn't really feel the need to. She doesn't feel as though she has any reason to lie to someone about something and would rather just be upfront and honest with them the first time around.
Energetic- Lita is known for her boundless energy. She's almost always bouncing off the walls, but it could be the result of popping too many pills. Whatever the reason, she almost always full of energy and has a hard time keeping still.
Imaginative - Along with her energetic persona, Lita is quite imaginative. She can adapt herself to any situation, as well as come up with ideas on the spot.
Flirtatious- So she might have an "in-your-face" personality, but Lita is still quite the flirt. She'll flirt with anyone. It doesn't matter if it's a teacher or a fellow student, or just some regular person who doesn't even attend the school. She's just that kind of person.
Humorous- One of the things only a few close insiders get to see is Lita's funny side. She has a sick sense of humor that not too many people know about, but once they get to know her feel a little differently about. She loves joking about morbid topics such as blood and death for some odd reason...
Negative Traits:
Rude- Lita can come across as very rude and in your face. She doesn't care if a person is in the middle of a sentence, she will say whatever she needs to say regardless.
Risky- Lita's a very risky person. She doesn't think about consequences, nor does she take the time to think her "plans" through. A lot of her risky behavior results in bad outcomes, but she doesn't care and she keeps at it.
Addictive- Lita has a very addicting personality. Things like tattoos and death all seem to sum it up. It's easy to get her started on one thing, and it usually leads to something else, for better or worse.
Aggressive- Lita likes to fight and make herself known. She's not passive in any sense and doesn't like to get emotional in front of others. Her aggression is real and she can be very intimidating to most people. She'll even bark at some of the professors if that means proving a point.
Greatest Ambition:"My greatest ambition? Well, that would probably consist of seeing my creations on the runway in Paris or New York for Fashion Week or something. I mean, if my mother can do it so can I. I personally think my designs are more outrageous and daring than hers and I really think it has a lot of potential simply because I don't cater to the skinny bitches of the world. So yeah, that's my greatest ambition."
Greatest Fear: "Probably that I won't live up to the hype that my mother created. I mean, she's huge in the fashion world and has been doing it for so long. Sometimes I find myself trying to compete and I have to wonder if I'm really any good. I'd like to believe that I am and she encourages me and gives me tips, but to be considered nothing but a failure does worry me most nights."[/size]
`History ,,
Lita Sevrina Strummer was born in New York City, New York. Her parents, Flora and Patrick Strummer, welcomed their youngest daughter on October 14, 1988. The Strummer's were notorious for their eccentric ways. Patrick was the owner of his own nightclub and Flora was a well known dancer-turned stylist to the stars. Patrick took an interest in his youngest daughter immediately and raised her under his wing, so to speak in her younger years. He was a very flamboyant man, having been raised in California. He met Flora Mendes, a Cuban native, back in the mid-seventies.
Flora was an "exotic" dancer at the time and Patrick just happened to be in the right place at the right time. After wooing her, the two married after only dating for a couple of months. Their first child, Ricardo, was born soon after. Money was never much of an issue, with Pat's nightclub garnering a lot of attention. It was around this time that Flora stopped dancing and turned to her real love: fashion. She took to designing clothes for herself to wear, and after a few people took interest, she developed her own clothing label.
Sons Carlos and Desi followed, and the Strummer's were living large at this point. The nightclub was the place to be and Flora was having massive success with her label. However, once the disco-era ended in the early 80s, the nightclub lost a lot of its former appeal and soon was forced to shut down. Patrick was known to spend money on expensive things, and by the time of the nightclub's closing, most of the money he had squandered.
Flora and Patrick's marriage soon took a turn for the worst, and she ended up leaving him for a couple of years. She moved from New York City to Los Angeles during that time. By this point, her label had earned her a lot of respect as well as money. She took that money and invested it in a school for fashion. After the school was complete, she reconciled with Patrick and the two went on to have two more children: Alisa and Lita. Patrick had tried his hand and reopened his nightclub in New York City after a nearly ten year quiet period. Much to his surprise, it was an instant success.
The children were enrolled in top notch schools, courtesy of their mother and received the best care possible. Though a very busy and successful business woman, Flora always found time for her children. She relocated her company back to New York after Patrick's success and wanted to be a very hands-on mother. Lita gave her plenty of headaches early on, and Flora's attempts at trying to "femme" her daughter, succeeded in failure. She just stopped trying and came to the realization that Lita was going to be herself, for better or worse.
Lita and Alisa were like a tag team. They got into trouble all the time and also stood up for one another. Alisa was Lita's best friend and it was a bond that never went away. Alisa, being slightly older, was also responsible for some of Lita's bad behavior. It was safe to say that she was a bad influence on her younger sister. She'd take her out to clubs, let her drink and smoke, all without their parents knowledge.
Lita and Alisa were slowly growing apart, however, and by the time Lita was 15, she and Alisa had gone their separate ways in terms of hanging out together all the time. Lita had started to take an interest in metal music. This was when she first started to change as far as her parents were concerned. She'd stay up in her room and listen to music all day long. Her parents grew concerned over their daughter, but there was little they could do to stop her. Flora, taking a last stand, invited her daughter to attend a workshop with her.
Flora was teaching a class on modern fashion design when it struck Lita that she could do what her mother did and do it even better. After the two week workshop was over, Flora was astonished to find her rebellious daughter taking an interest in something as seemingly "girlie" as fashion. Instead of questioning it, she helped her daughter and encouraged her. Of course, Lita was still into the heavy rock scene and still partied and got drunk all the time, but now she had ambition and purpose. She started making her own clothes, developing her unique fashion style. It was a style that she continued to wear.
By the age of 18, Lita was accepted into the Washington University of Arts with a full scholarship in fashion. She was surprised and shocked, but eager to get away from her parents and quickly accepted it without much thinking. It was also around this time that she met a local musician in Peter "Leathers" Bass. Peter and Lita hooked up instantly and he only added fuel to her fire, so to speak. She was still into partying and drinking, and when she was around him, logic went out the window. It wasn't long before she found out the news that she was pregnant.
Lita wasn't sure what to do. She knew that she wasn't ready for a child and couldn't bare the thought of adoption. She and Peter talked about it, but they both knew what was the best option. She got an abortion without telling her family or friends anything. After that, she stopped drinking and partying. Her relationship with Peter quickly soured and she found herself wanting to leave WUOA. She was seriously depressed and remorseful over what happened and what she did. She made a silent vow to control herself after that incident.
For the most part, Lita stayed out of trouble for the next couple of years. She kept in contact with Peter, hoping they'd get back together, but she was realistic and knew it wouldn't happen. He didn't want to give up that lifestyle and didn't think she was worth it and she didn't want to fall back into her old ways. Again, it wasn't worth it. For now, Lita is just trying to survive her time here at WUOA.

Best Memory: "I actually remember this. I was like, twelve or something. It was my first concert ever...Metallica. My older brother Ric took me to see the guys play. Let's just say that it was the happiest day of my f'in life! I remember when they played "One", it nearly killed me. I was ready to devote my entire life to the music, man. Anyway, we hung around back and got to meet the band! Hell yeah, bitches. Got my autographs hanging up on my wall, as well as some pics."
Worst Memory: "Well, it would have to be the abortion, without a doubt. God, I shouldn't have even slept with Pete. He was such a jackass, but he got me with his dark hair and blue eyes and bad boy attitude. We were both pretty wasted and it shouldn't have happened. I mean, granted, it wasn't the first time for either one of us, but regardless, if we had been more careful, I wouldn't have had to make that awful decision. Having to go through that still haunts me, and it's been a couple years later. I didn't have the balls to tell anyone else and I didn't want to tell Pete either. To his credit, he went with me."

`Writing Skill ,,
What was there left for her to do? She was starting to grow restless once again. She had her notebook with her and started jotting down any idea that came to her mind. She was thinking solely about that upcoming dance. She didn't want to go, having a feeling it would be nothing more than a mere disappointment, but there was something telling her in the back of her mind that she owed it to herself to at least show up. After all, it was a school event and she loved being the center of attention. That would be the perfect opportunity to show off her many "skills", whatever they may be.
Resisting the urge to laugh at that thought, Eden merely scribbled down some more notes, not taking care to pay any attention to where her legs were taken her. She did this often and always found herself in the weirdest places. One time, she honestly ended up in the male bathroom. That was interesting, if not slightly embarrassing. Making a mental note never to bring that topic up to anyone, Eden continued on her path to somewhere, looking up once or twice when she thought her name was being mention. Mostly, it was a bunch of annoying people that she wanted nothing to do with and were only taunting and teasing her.
She was use to the haters, of course, though was well aware that she had a tendency to bring such things upon herself. She just had a mouth and an opinion and couldn't bring herself to be quiet most days. That was just how she was, for better or worse. Most people had learned to ignore her or put up with her obnoxious behavior. When she stopped writing, she was moderately surprised to find that she had started writing a poem unwittingly. It was startling, seeing as though she hadn't had much inspiration for writing in ages. She looked it over and smiled to herself. Who knew.
After musing idly over her remarkable poem, at least, she thought it remarkable, Eden found herself in the arcade. She usually only frequented this place solo, as it allowed her time and a place to think, but what she really wanted was someone to talk to. She was so tired of going at it solo lately. It just wasn't proving as fun as she had hoped and she was now starting to regret having pushed people away from her. She was starting to find herself incredibly unfun and boring, and that wasn't a good thing as far as she was concerned.
Eden stuffed her notebook in her purse and headed straight for the air hockey table. Luckily for her, there was no one else around to bother her. She grinned and set everything up. She'd just mess around here and kill some time. It was fairly late as it was, going on five in the evening. She really should have had better things to do. After a minute or two, she realized that playing by herself just wasn't going to cut it. She tossed the puck down in frustration and sighed loudly, clearly unhappy at the fact that she was alone.
