Its natural curls make it difficult to brush and comb through, but overall her hair is pretty manageable. She likes to wear jeans. In the winter, she'll have on sweaters. In the summer, spring, and fall (as it is still unbearably warm in Los Angeles), she'll have on different t-shirts. A majority of her wardrobe consists of free shirts she got from work (Buzzfeed swag!). Rent isn't cheap, after all! She also will alternate between wearing glasses or contacts, as she's a bit farsighted.

She figures that she must have been out and proud, as well as living somewhere where people weren't in danger of being murdered for that sort of thing. Having the money to spend on a tattoo also is a strong case for her not having been homeless (her personal hygiene and the fact that she didn't wake up in the streets somewhere also confirm this). From her ability to speak Italian as well as English, Vinnie has concluded that she either got enough education to learn another language or that she was raised in a bilingual environment. Her calves are in pretty great shape, so Vinnie is certain that she likely exercised pretty often or at least walked a lot. Her glasses have smudges all over them, so maybe she isn't the most neat or tidy of people? All in all, Vinnie thinks she sounds like a rad person. [b][color=bc8dbf]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Homosexual [b][color=bc8dbf]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Single [b][color=bc8dbf]Personality:[/color][/b] Vinnie is a good natured person with ADHD and dyslexia, as well as some social awkwardness. She often comes off as absentminded and thrives in non traditional environments - her career is likely one of the few places where her strengths are emphasized. She often rambles and seems to be out of sync with others, yet this is to her credit. It causes her to attain a charming quirkiness. Her lack of traditional behavior combined with her ADHD can cause her to be forgetful - Vinnie often pulls all nighters in order to complete assignments, not due to procrastination, but simply from not realizing the deadline was approaching. She is well suited to working in teams, as others may be able to help ground her and remind her of important dates that are approaching. Unlike other adopted children, she appears to have no ill will towards her bio parents or a desire to seek them out. Of course, this may just be that she thinks of her biological mother as her aunt, rather than her mother. She is very close to her fathers and has a heightened sensitivity to mentions of drug abuse due to the tragic passing of "Dad" (her biological uncle, later adoptive father). Vinnie is very extroverted and empathetic, making friends with ease. Her sense of humor is strong and unconventional.

It was a graduation gift from her Pops, as he knew that she loved the way photos looked on the film. It also used to belong to her Dad before he passed.

Her mother was a college sophomore and didn't want to be a parent, fearing it would take away her ability to live out her dream of being an astronaut. Her biological father similarly didn't wish to raise her, as he was a fine arts major and wanted to perform in a national ballet year round. Vinnie was never especially heartbroken over this, as she loved her adoptive dads. Dad (biological uncle) owned his own little fashion boutique and Pops (his husband) was a mechanic. She was very close to her grandparents as well, as being an Italian family, [i]familia[/i] was everything. She had a fairly active childhood, her dads taking her to extra-curricular programs on the regular. She did rocket camp in the summer, drama in the winter, soccer in the fall, roller derby in the spring. Vinnie always did her best if she was constantly moving, never being able to quite sit still. At school, she was very smart yet struggled with tests due to her dyslexia. Having an iPad where she could set the screen to be a black background with white text was a game changer for her in high school. After graduating high school, she went to California for college. She wasn't really sure what she wanted to study at first, having a lot of interests and seemingly a lack of an ability to focus on them. Despite her dyslexia (and diagnosed ADHD), she ended up double majoring in History and Creative Writing, graduating just one year late. Her pops was so incredibly proud of her (her Dad had passed away earlier that year, having relapsed and lost his battle). She ended up getting a job as a content creator for Buzzfeed, playing to her strengths of doing creative and weird things in a fast paced environment. [b][color=bc8dbf]A memory:[/color][/b] When she was a high school senior, she was stood up by her prom date. Her dads wouldn't hear of her moping around at home, so they got into tuxedos themselves and the three of them went to the roller rink, dressed to the nines. They skated for hours and afterwards, they went to the Cheesecake Factory and ordered so much cheesecake that Vinnie almost puked. Once it hit midnight, they finished up by watching [i]Monty Python and the Holy Grail.[/i] It was the best day of her life.
