Like her cousin, her skin is clear and free of pimples, but does have freckles across the bridge of her nose and tends to get oily throughout the day if she does not blot or apply powder. Due to her being very physically active, Cher appears to be in pretty good shape. Despite being a bit on the curvy side, she has a toned stomach, arms, and legs. Her teeth are straight and white with a slight overbite present, thanks to two years of braces. Her lips are full and are, if not painted with lipstick, always coated with clear lip-gloss. She has a septum piercing, as well as 1/2" gauges. Cheryl's style of dress varies from time to time. Sometimes, not wanting to stick out too much, Cher sticks to the basics: a pair of dark colored jeans, a blouse or T-Shirt, and a pair of cool sneakers or boots. Other times, you'll see her rocking a dress or pantsuit with ankle-breaking high heels. Her short, curly hair is usually worn in protective styles, braids, wigs, weaves, etc. When it comes to makeup, she'll usually just fill in her eyebrows a bit, apply mascara and lipstick, and call it a day. If she wakes up early enough or feels up to it, she'll put on a full face.[/indent] [hr][hr][center][img]http://i.imgur.com/tEuPNXF.jpg[/img] [url=https://youtu.be/CXiMKUu_1xs]"I'm alone but I'm not lonely Comfortably indulging And trying to get to know me"[/url][/center][hr][hr][center][h3][color=#C1A49E]At First Glance[/color][/h3][/center] [color=#C1A49E]║ Personality ║[/color] [indent][color=#C1A49E]The Positive:[/color] ♥ Introverted ♥ Confident ♥ Easygoing [/indent] [indent][color=#C1A49E]The Negative:[/color] ♥ Noncommittal ♥ Opinionated ♥ Stubborn [/indent] [indent][color=#C1A49E]What You See:[/color] Those that have seen Cheryl play know her simply as one of the school's promising athletes. Those that just so happen to take the same art class as she does know her as a wonderful painter. Though she does her best to become acquainted with people from each social group, Cheryl has two separate groups of friends in Westworth High: the jocks, and the artists. Due to the tendency of the atmospheres of each social group to be strikingly different, Cher tends to be a "chameleon" and adjust her temperament accordingly. For example, when with her athlete friends, she's a bit more extroverted and wild. With her artsy friends, on the other hand, she's more reserved and thought-provoking. At the end of the day, how she acts depends on what company she is in. She's almost always taking naps in class, so people automatically assume that her grades are below average. They see how inattentive she tends to be in class, and wonder why she even bothers to show up in the first place. What does she want to do with her life? Does she know that there's more to life than just Basketball? Those that don't know her well assume that she's just another "dumb jock," and those that, by chance, stumble upon her artwork, assume that it's just a hobby. [/indent] [indent][color=#C1A49E]What I Know:[/color] What most [i]do not[/i] know about Cheryl is that she actually gets pretty good grades. As a matter of fact, she happens to be ranked in the top quarter of her class. Along with her history of volunteer work and sport involvement, it wouldn't be hard for Cheryl to get into a decent college if she really wanted to. Her tendency to fall asleep in class has more to do with sleep-maintenance insomnia. Because of this, she has a lot more time on her hands than she knows what to do with, so she paints or reads ahead in her coursework. What people are right about, however, is that she is not sure of what she wants to do in the future. Will she pursue an art career, will she continue working at the bowling alley, or will she end up dribbling balls for the majority of her life? Nobody really knows. Because she has a tendency to alter her own temperament to fit those of who she is with, not many people know the "real" Cher. If you push past all of the bullshit, you'll see that she's a pretty cool person to be around, most of the time. Despite being an introvert, she is very confident in her words and actions. She is very opinionated and loves to have a good debate on something she is passionate about. She has a bit of a potty mouth, and has a long history of "keeping it real" and being brutally honest, despite what others may think. She does enjoy being around good people and having fun, but often prefers to be alone, painting, reading or listening to music. Not many people know of the pressure that is constantly being put on her from her parents and coaches, nor do they know her constant struggle of trying to figure out who she really is, and who she wants to be.

She wants to see her paintings in museums across the world, uplift and inspire people with her works, and become the female Pablo Picasso. Her current path is to earn a sports scholarship to a prestigious college and major in Art. At the end of the day, it is a battle between what she is good at, and what she is passionate about.[/indent] [color=#C1A49E]║ Fears ║[/color] [indent]♥ Large bodies of water ♥ Stagnancy ♥ Oblivion ♥ Public Humiliation [/indent] [color=#C1A49E]║ Likes ║[/color] [indent]♥ Playing/Watching Sports ♥ Spicy Foods ♥ Underground Rap and R&B ♥ Smoking Weed ♥ Video Games ♥ Painting [/indent] [color=#C1A49E]║ Dislikes ║[/color] [indent]♥ Overly Sweet Foods ♥ Romance Novels/Movies ♥ Phony People ♥ Country Music/Heavy Metal ♥ Thunderstorms [/indent] [color=#C1A49E]║ Brief History ║[/color] [indent]Cheryl was born January 1st, 2000 in New Orleans to Savannah Howard-Harris and Kai Harris. The couple had been trying to conceive for over five years, and were about to give up before finally becoming pregnant with their beautiful baby girl. Despite not being the most fortunate, Cher's parents always made sure that she had everything she needed and more; She was always clothed, fed, and had a roof over her head. At the age of five, Cheryl's father signed her up for her elementary school's basketball team, despite her protests. A few years later, with the help of her father, she became one of the best players on the team. It was around the age of nine that Cheryl first discovered her passion for painting, but her parents refused to let her quit the basketball team. When Cheryl turned twelve, her parents moved the family out to a town in Colorado due to her father's job promotion. Because of her introverted ways, it was very hard for Cher to make friends. This all changed, however, once she entered High School. Her father, like before, encouraged her to try out for the basketball team. She made the Varsity team her Freshman year, and soon earned her spot as one of the best players on the court. Unbeknownst to her parents, Cher also signed up for an Art elective, and has been improving her painting skills ever since. Due to her participation in these activities, Cher has made many friends, a few close ones, and finds it a little easier to talk to others. Now that she is nearing her Senior year, there is more pressure being placed on her shoulders than ever. Her parents are pushing for her to focus solely on basketball, despite her protests, wanting to ensure that she earns a full ride to a prestigious college or is drafted into the WNBA. Because she is supposed to be focusing on basketball, she is often restricted by her parents from doing "normal teenager things" such as attend parties, join other clubs, and even hang out with friends. It took a lot of begging just for Cher to buy a PS4 or even be able to get her job at the bowling alley; She wanted an excuse to get away from the house, and sometimes tells her parents that she is going to work when she's really doing her own thing.
