Characterization I

Thursday, January 4, 2007

Alright. Play time's over. Its time to get serious on things. 

 

I've been chatting around for a week now, observing different kinds of people, how they act, their personality, coz I can use that in my writings in the future, and as far as I can say, in that span of time, I haven't met someone normal (except of course in my female chatmates). I mean, someone who doesn't talk about sex or anything connected with it. All the talks are garbage.

And  since, Im trying to get something for the personality of my character in my novel how can I associate them with mine? Unless I want a maniac character right? But no. And on my journey of looking out for those great personalities. Here are the nominies:

#1 The "Im all that" guy,

when people in that room found out that I am a writer, they all started to get interested in me and so is that guy, whom I'll call Knight. First he asked me what kind of poem do I write formal or freebie, I told him that any kind from formal to freebie. Someone asked, "Why knight? Are you a writer too?" 

He answered "Im a writer, actor, director" All in one.  That made him the "I'm all that" man. And so, the talking goes where he told us he played "Daniel" in a play I cant remember. (lol) but he's nice though, he told us things that has sense, and we had a very nice chat that day. Which is uncommon for a public chatroom, who are not aware that there really is a Wholesome Topic that can be fun.

He has authority in every word he speaks, and he always see to it that every word that will come out of his mouth is senseful. Everything has its basis and whatever you had in mind im sure. "He can be all that." haha..

 

#2 Mr Romantiko

Well he just looks like someone who just want to mess around, happy go lucky, loves drag racing, simple, According to him "my hyt is 5"8, mostly i spend my time alone, i'm quite a complicated person. outgoing, lovely, friendly, playful guy who lovvvve "dama" sports, dancing hip-hop, R&B, music and is a fun person to be with"

But no matter how playful and outgoing he is, I couldnt believe when I found out that he's actually an Asst Manager in their company, in my mind I thought (kaya pala petiks lang eh.lol) But great though. He's one of the best examples of what you see is not always what you get.

 

#3 Mr. Nurse

He's a funny guy, he falls in love so easily and he never thought of the result. He gave his password to someone, whom he thought his girlfriend both in the chat and in real world. Very sincere and a cry baby, but never too weak to make him less a man. A sweet person, who loves to say "I love you" everytime he has the chance to say so.  Vulnerable yet strong. 

He said in his shout out "My experiences made me stronger and tougher to face life."  A person you''ll never regret loving. He trust very easily which happens to be his weak point.

 

#4  The lawyer.

Hmm… He's almost me. Moody, weird, has a lot of sense of humor, thats why we jive perfectly, he can make me laugh my lungs and heart out, a Christian, we just talked once but for a straight 4 hours and Im not aware how time flies, he has the brains and the cuteness that I want.(err) And he doesnt drink alcohol, nice. Im not sure if he smokes but I know he dont.

And so with Mr. Lawyer… The end of my journey in finding true happines ended..haha.. Where did that came from? Well, Im praying…  Silently.. That somehow, I found him. 

 

Well see you next post.
