well, my hair is, medium lengthed, and chesnut brown.
and I love my eyes, they're, dark brown.
and my skin colors this really cool, caucasian color
mainly because I'm , italian & german
I measure up to , around 5'3
no Seattle Sutton's for me ! the scale says , one hundred and ten
but it's kind of cool that I have , random freckles
and my style blows yours away , failrly casual. she likes to make certain styles her own. she likes to wear hats, sunglasses and other sort of accessories. some may call her style 'vintage', but it's all whatever she likes.
so over - all , Harper's hair is something that she is rather thankful for. It never really causes her that many difficulties, as it is rather simple. Her hair had never been overlly thick, and if you were to look at it for a while you'd notice it would be more on the thin or in between side. Whereas some girls may complain when they can't straighten their hair or curl it, her hair is actually quite easy to work with. She can curl it with ease, and as it is naturally straight she doesn't need to straighten it all that match - sometimes some unwanted waves are present though. As for the colour, it is currently a dark brunette colour. It is her currently at her natural state, but she has dyed it in the past. She wanted to do something different, since she has a twin and all, it can get tiresome seeing the same thing times two every day. When she went to the store the box colour look like a different colour then her actual hair turned out to be. It was supposed to be a lighter shade of chesnut, but it randomly turned out to be a darkish brown with a tint of red. She was kind of confused by this, though it wasn't permanent luckily. She decided not to dye it after that incident, and for the most part her hair has gone back to normal. Every now and then, mostly when in the sun - you can see a slight tint of red, but it apparently just looks natural. For now, her length is just past her shoulders. Normally it's either slightly longer or slightly shorter, but never a big difference. That just isn't something she is willing to take a chance in, because she's pretty sure sure the medium length 'do suits her best.
eyes:
One of harper's best features would definetely be her eyes. There are many reasons behind that, and they seem to be something that people find attractive about her the most. Her eye's are big and such a chocolatey brown colour they almost seem like they could be reading your mind. It could just be the way she looks at you, but really she wants to know what you think about her. The insecure side kicks in, and secretely she'll try to look deep enough to see if you're hiding something about her. Her eyes can show a variety of different emotions, and a lot of the time they are used for seduction or flirting. It is just how she is in general, but those eye's of hers seem to suck boys in even more. To make her eyes all the more appealing, her eyelashes are rather long but would most likely be categorized as average. It isn't something that she worries about all that much, because with a little help of mascara no one will even notice. As for make-up: some days she likes to wear more then other days. On her lighter days, the girl likes to surround her dark eyes with a dark brown or black eye liner. It just tends to make them pop and be all the more noticeable, which is what she would be aiming for.
physique:
Harper had never really had to deal with the problem of being overweight, because she is naturally a small girl. Growing up, she and her sister would always be the target for short comments and nicknames, and after a while the girl got used to it. It didn't ever really bother her, though sometimes she does wish that she was even slightly taller. As of now, she stands at around 5'3, though she hasn't measured herself anytime recently. Normally she just goes by what she stands at compared to her sister, and as of now they are almost exactly the same height. She is a girl who wears heels quite often, so you may just be decieved when you see her. Her weight is something that had caused her some troubles over the past couple of years. She had always been pretty self concious, though she could pull off confidence with no problem. Especially since she has a twin sister, she felt as if people were always comparing the two of them. A few issues later, and she found herself regularily puking after each meal. Not something she pictured herself doing, and it's not like she enjoyed it - it was more of an addiction. A couple months later and she was around 95 pounds if not lighter, her family and friends started to take notice and gradually she worked her way back up. Presently, she is around 103, but she is working out and such because she wants to gain back more muscle then fat.
There are a lot of things about harper that make her different looking then other girls around her. She is quite unique looking, and rather different. One of her best features would be her large chocolate brown eyes. Her nose is small and almost delicate looking. Harper had always had something against it, because it reminded her of a dog nose for some reason. Her smile is also something that everyone around her see's a whole lot, and it is very bright and genuine. Whether she see's an adorable animal, or she receives a compliment, she can't help but smile, and smile big mind you. She has quite a lot of freckles, and to be honest she didn't really like them before. But sometime or another, she just learned to accept them and now they make her who they are. Some may call them quirks, or something unique, but she normally doesn't cover them up with foundation.
Clothing has always been something that Harper loved. Seeing as her mother is a rather succesfull fashion designer, she got tips and hints all throughout her life growing up. At a young age even, she figured out which colours were 'her' colours and which choices were obviously horrible. The money situation growing up was always very stable aswell, so it's not like they had to watch which brand they bought from. Some of the clothes that she wears are hard for other people to get, because she'll search basically everywhere until she finds that perfect atrictle of clothing. It's only because she likes her clothing specific and unique. Vintage must be her absolute favourite style. Anything that she can mix and match and even get for cheap, is what she'll settle for.

[/size]but I'd rather wake up beside you
and breathe that ol' familiar smell,
*[/size] personage - - - - - [/blockquote][/right]
[/i][/size][/color] because, because she seems to always be doing something + can find the fun in stupid stuff.
I love, acting, clothes, sunglasses, animals, magazines, news, listening to music, musicals, the theatre, photography, vintage clothing, old movies, marilyn monroe, shopping, her sister, parties, junk food, being outside, boys, flirting, drinking, ice cream, travelling, foreign countries, accents, sweet boys, trying new things , going out for dinner, having fun, dressing up, dressing down, her dogs, taking long walks, trying to be healthy, swimming, the enviroment, standing up for what she believes in, making a different, changing things, tea, sunsets, gum, the beach, making a point.
but I really despise, fakes, overly ditzy blondes, uncleanliness, feeling ugly or overweight, being compared to her twin, too much drama, being discluded, olives, bad choices, bad movies, things that are overrated, rap, clinginess, needy people, selfishness, annoying sounds, overly mature people, staying in one place for too long, dul conversations, abusers, clowns, weather that's too hot, math, classes, deaths, people touching her without her knowing first, hangovers, stereotypical people, being wrong.
I personally think I'm pretty good at, writing, creativity, speaking her mind, acting, making people smile, dealing with animals, speaking in front of crowds, making other people feel better.
though I should really work on , she's pretty insecure, scared of failure, sweet talking boys, she falls pretty fast for guys, she thinks she can do everything on her own, she won't admit at first when she likes someone, she can be persuaded very easily.
people tend to tell me I'm ,
stubborn[/font] because, because she hates to admit that she is wrong, even if she knows it.
out spoken[/font] because, im not afraid to say what's on my mind, and what i believe.[/ul][/font]
but basically, I'm , It is only obvious that one might describe harper to be rather flirty and a little package of fun. That would be telling the truth, because naturally she just has a very flirty personality. Growing up, she was always the twin to pay more attention to boys and socializing then to school work and other important things. If she saw a cute guy was past her, she wouldn't be scared to just go up and talk to him. Flirting isn't just something that comes naturally to her, it's something that she loves to do. It's just all around fun in her eyes, and you might as well have fun while you're still not tied down. She loves getting the guy - especially the ones that all the girls are after, but are too scared to do anything about. It helps that she is also really outgoing and not shy at all, because she just puts herself out there and normally they take notice. However, she won't force herself upon anyone or anything, she knows when to stop. Trust me, she really doesn't want to embarrass herself, because she hates that sort of attention being brought to herself - negative attention.Her flirtatious attitude works hand in hand with her being a complete socialite. She'll admit that she loves hearing all the latest gossip. Whether it be with celebrities or within her own circle of friends. The girl loves to be included in everything going on, and she does indeed have a wide variety of friends, so she just so happens to be involved in a lot of what goes down. Just because she is flirt does not mean that she sleeps with every guy in town. She is actually pretty picky when it comes down to it. Many people might think she's a harcore sleeper, but she really isn't. She truly does want to find that one right guy for her, but for now - hookup's are fine.
Harper is one of those girls whom are quite hard to figure out upon first meeting. She has been called many of the names in the book. Some of them more harsh then others, but most of the time they don't hurt her emotionally. Some people just decide to judge her before really getting to know her, and they assume that she is some sort of whore or that she loves to start drama. Neither of those are true. Sure, she might just be involved in some drama and she is indeed an theatrical actress, that doesn't mean that she is always putting on an act. She is the type of girl where she'll be her true self the first time you meet her, and if you don't like her then you don't like her. She won't try to pursuade you otherwise, unless you are one of those rare occasions where she will really want to know the reasonioning behind your dislike. If she feels that you are judging her wrongly, or that the two of you could actually be friends, then she'll let you know. She isn't afraid to stand up for herself or tell someone exactly how it is. That might be how she gets some of her nicknames, but she tells the cold and honest truth - most of the time. She knows when to not tell the truth, if it will really hurt their feelings. Most of all, she is generally a smart girl in making decisions.
The small girl is definitely loyal. If you are her friend now, you are most likely going to be her friend for a long time down the road. She loves to have close friends, and having a lot of friends there to support you is something that she loves to have aswell. If you have had basically one conversation together, but she got to know you at least somewhat and she kind of knows who you are, then you are good in her books. She won't stand by and watch one of her friends get beaten down verbally, because they are her friends and she does feel somewhat responsible to take care of them. However, she obviously can't do much if it turns into a physical matter because most people are bigger then her anyways. If you need someone to talk to, then she will always listen. Seeing as she did run an advice column in the school newspaper at highschool, she does like to think that she has had some expirience and can actutally be of some help with your current issue. Aside from that, she just wants to make sure that she can be the best friend possible, because sometimes all you need is just a good friend.
Some may say that harper is rather mysterious and secretive. That's because some things she just doesn't feel like they need to be shared. One of the most significant events in her life that might have just changed her as a person, she doesn't like telling people about. When you first meet her, she will most likely come across as confident - but not full of herself. That's what she really wants you to think, so if you did, mission completed. She doesn't like people knowing about her eating disorder because that is another thing that her sister didn't go through, that she did. She is slightly insecure at times, because she was never the bright and smart sister. While harper was out partying and making tons of new friends, some good some bad, her sister was being the responsible and careful one. Their parents obviously noticed and that had always just made harper feel like she was less worthy then her. That insecurity sometimes carries with her now, but the two of them had a good talk about it - they are even. One is sometimes going to be better then the other at something, but they are still twins and should mean the world to each other. Even now as she is recovering she sometimes still feels the urge to go back to her old ways, but her support system is too strong for that.
Bubbly, energetic creative are three good words to describe this girl aswell. Harper is the type of person who doesn't like to be stuck doing on thing for a long period of time. She can get bored rather easily, though it does depend on who she is with. If she can do something she would normally find boring without getting insanely bored, then she will know that whoever she is with is for sure someone to keep around. This girl normally has a smile on her face. She loves to laugh, and the stupidest and most random things can make her laugh. It isn't a bad thing, in general she is just a very happy girl. She likes to keep moving, keep doing something. Some may call it attention deficit disorder, but it's only the way she is. It is an obvious reason as to why she is so good at what she does, her acting helps her to stay busy and it really is never boring. She can play different characters and just put herself and their shoes and deal with their own issues. She had always been a creative girl, and writing stories was included in that. Writing is something that she absolutely adores, and in school english was always her best subject.

& the good and the bad, In what most people call the happiest time of the year, not one but two lovely little girls were born. On december twentieth to be exact, harper and noelle ryan were born into a rather wealthy family, which was lucky on their behalf. Harper was born exactly five minutes earlier then her little sister, and that had always seemed to make her feel all the more superior and in charge. Though she knew very well that she wasn't, it was just a fun thing to joke around about. When the two of them were born, it seemed that everyone took notice in how adorable the two of them really were. Whereas sometimes the nurses and doctors just say your children are cute to make you happy, it was obvious that they were sincere this time. It must've been those big chocolatey eyes of theirs, or their little button noses. Either way, a lot of people took notice whether they liked it or not. Starting at a younge age, it was obvious that Harper put herself out there more. She was not shy at all, and the girl loved the attention. Any attention she could get really, and everyone took notice of how different yet so alike these two girls could really be.
Growing up, Harper never really did have any problems with getting what she wanted. Some may say thats basically a bad thing, but in her eyes - it was all good. These two girls were indeed spoiled rotten, but it didn't add onto their ego's or anything. Most of the people that their family was friends with were from the same status of wealth, so it only seemed natural to these two. Harper's twin sister, Noelle, just so happened to be spending a lot of time with their mother. This didn't bother harper all that much because there was in fact two parents, so she just kind of clung onto her father when it came down to it. Sure, it would have been nice to bond more with a female figure, but her dad was equally as good of taking care of her. They would go to all the things that he liked to to, that maybe noelle didn't want to attend. Like race car driving, and basketball games. Though harper really wasn't one for sports, she just liked spending time with her dad, she always felt safe.
When the girls were four, noelle started to take an interest in modelling. Harper, being the more outgoing and socializing twin - got into acting. Merely because she had always been very creative, and she wasn't she at all. When it came time for auditions, she was never nervous she was just more excited then anything. Another reason she wasn't steering for modelling was because she hated to be in one position or just to be doing one thing for an extended period of time. She loved to be moving around, trying new things, just being all around adventurous. Part of the reasoning that she wanted to do some acting was because of her uncle. He was a director and everything that he did really amazed the small girl, and she had even considered going behind the camera's, but the attention she got from being in front of it was like nothing she had ever felt before. Starting up, she got a lot of commercials. She wasn't quite sure why, but apparently she had the whole commercial look down. As time went on, her grand parent's took her to see a play in the theatre. She thought it was going to be rather lame, and wasn't at all excited about it. Though her reaction was completely suprising. She loved it, that was what she wanted to try next. The risk taking side of her kicked in, and she started auditioning for theatrical productions. Whether it be musicals or just plays, she found something she really loved.
Harper would occasionally get in trouble at school, even if she was rather young to be causing trouble. It was just all part of her personality, and a lot of the time she didn't notice if she was being too loud - or too daring. Her parents took notice in this, but figured it was just something that would pass over. Nothing that intense had happened until the family decided to move from Sydney to Cairns, Australia. She didn't mind the move all that much, and she was a quick adjuster it seemed. Though, she didn't want to move again. Merely because she had lost some contact with friends, and friends meant a lot to her, so she didn't want to go through that again. During the second half of sophomore year was when the twins were enrolled into the school there, and she actually didn't have any troubles fitting in. The girl flirted and giggled and talked her way right into the social circle, with ease it seemed. There was no doubting that harper was the twin who spent more time with the boys. When noelle might have been doing more important things, such as studying, harper would be out at parties or hanging out with her friends. School just didn't matter to her as much as it really should have. Her new school had a really great journalism program, and that was also something she took interest in. From a young age she would write stories, about anything and everything. She did love writing, and it was definitely her stongest point in school. She even wrote some articles for the school newspaper, they mostly stuck her with advice and gossip - but she knew she had more potential then that.
When the girls were fifteen, their family decided that they wanted to move again. Apparently it was their dad's need and desire for more work, which meant more money. Noelle took it way better then harper, because harper liked where she was at. School was starting to go good, she had awesome friends, some boys who she was interested in - everything was good. Normally, she was the girl to take chances and love doing new things, but this she wasn't too keen on the idea of. It was then very obvious to her parents. Harper started acting out more then usual, and she knew how to make her parents furious. It made her seem even worse because noelle was such a good student, and she had everything going for her. Harper couldn't help but be jealous, they were twins - they were supposed to be the same. She would stay out late, go to wild parties that police would have to get involved in, etc. At first she was just trying to make her parents mad, but after a while she started to actually like the idea of going wild and crazy. She continued her lifestyle and eventually tryed smoking weed, and got caught with it. She wasn't some big pothead or anything, they just happened to find her when she was going through her expiremental days. After that, some drama had gone down, and everytime she came home she had her perfect sister to compare to. Harper developed bulemia without noticing really, and it starting to take an effect on her. After a while it was all too much, and her parents and sister decided to step in.
Harper and her sister went to blair academy for the rest of their high school careers. Even if she didn't really want to move at first, harper did get used to it and she found out that she really loved it. It was a fun place to be for her, and even though she really hated the actual classes she went for her friends. The friends and boyfriends that she had, normally straightened her out whenever she kind of felt like going down a bad path. She always wanted to have fun, and push it farther each time just to experience everything she possibly could, and that was the key in getting her into trouble sometimes. But eventually, all was well. She definitely wasn't known as the 'innocent twin', and that would just never happen. Now that she has moved on she is doing what she absolutely loves. Acting, and also writing. She doesn't do it for the fame or the love, it's because she has a passion for it and without it, her life wouldn't be the same.
