[centre] [b]Name:[/b] Valerie Peterson [b]Age:[/b] 17 [b]Appearance[/b] [centre][img]https://petitsfilmsentreamisdotnet.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/2-saoirse-ronan-optimisation-google-image-wordpress.jpg?w=584[/img][/centre] [b]Year of Education:[/b] 11 [b]Favourite Subject:[/b] Mathematics [b]Personality:[/b] Valerie is both organised and self-motivated. She is opinionated, quick to question - she tries at school, but is certainly no natural genius - and has a strong inner sense of justice. She is optimistic, with a quick, quirky sense of humour. She would not consider herself to be shy but is emotionally reserved and whenever an emotional situation arises, she prefers to brush it under the carpet with a short, nervous laugh. She has a rather black-and-white view on the world and finds it hard to accept things that don't have a definitive answer. [b]Background:[/b] Valerie is not one to elaborate on her home life. Her parents are fairly wealthy and she has three elder brothers and two older sisters, all of whom were high achievers - it all looks good...on paper. She has learnt to live in their shadows and content herself with her slightly-above-average grades. [b]Significant Relationships with any other Characters:[/b] Not currently [b]Other:[/b] Although not overly sporty, she does like jogging - it calms her mind and helps her think, when she becomes overwhelmed.
