Ashton Harper Hall
"A thousand disbelievers couldn't keep me on the ground,
I've invented a momentum that'll never slow me down,
I believe it 'cause I feel it, and I shout it out loud,
I can, I can, I can, so."
- Anything, HedleyWhat is your real name?Ashton Harper Hall
Are you male or female?Female, surprisingly.
What is your age?I'm seventeen years old.
When is your birthday?April 13th
What grade are you in?I'm in twelfth grade, so therefore, I'm a Senior.
What are some of your hobbies and interests?Typically, people only pay attention to the fact that I play the violin: yes, I'm good at it and yes, I like it, but I have other hobbies and interests too. For one, I really love to play video games, especially MMOs and terrible Japanese dating sims. Aside from that, I'm passionate about animals and their non-existent rights to the point where my family is ready to push me out onto the street during Thanksgiving dinner. I also volunteer at the little animal shelter not too far away from town whenever I get a breather - which is rarely, considering I'm in almost all Advanced and AP classes. Though I'm often drowning in piles of work, I actually very much enjoy school. Well, that's outside of socializing, which could be easily fixed by taking all of the homophobes, morons and lazy assholes from Wellbridge and shoving them onto an island together.
It's also often a shocker to people that I enjoy my family's religion seeing as I'm supposed to be an edgy teenager that rebels against everything that I was raised with. While I'll never take the Lord's name in vain, you can surely be promised that I'll probably drop an F-bomb at least once during your class. Sorry, swearing helps me relax sometimes. While I don't play any sports and probably never will, I don't consider myself to be a lazy person. In fact, I absolutely hate lazy people, especially those with strong beliefs who don't act upon them. If you advocate for something, but do absolutely nothing to benefit it, then how am I going to take you seriously? I'm probably being a little harsh here, but hey, you grow up in Absolutely Nowhere, Maine, you slowly get fed up with what you run into on a daily basis.
How would you describe your personality?My father would describe me as an inspiration. My mother would describe me as a pain in the ass. Though I'm probably going to be one of the quietest kids in your class, I know what I want in life and I'm very headstrong and ambitious about it. I don't talk to people of my own accord because I'm simply uninterested in what they have to offer and because of this, I've never had many friends or a boyfriend. Or a girlfriend, however you want me to put it. As far as my personality is concerned, I think people would be surprised by what I'm really like - aggressive, blunt, outspoken and straight-forward. After all, how dare the quiet and mature girl fall outside of her stereotype?
What has your life been like so far?My life's been pretty simple so far and I honestly can't complain. Both of my (fairly) supportive and loving parents are still together and I have an older brother that could kick anyone's ass if they harass me. Actually, that last part is a lie, my brother is a pacifist and I'm actually the (proud) fighter of the family. All things considered, I'm pretty proud of my family since as far as I'm concerned, we're pretty together and "with the times". My parents are heavy Lutheran Christians, but are supportive of my bisexuality and if my brother ever decided to come out as anything besides straight. Is that the formula for true happiness? Being supportive? Maybe.
Aside from that, I've always tried to apply myself when it came to school and I discovered my musical talent during my geek days in middle school. You know what, scratch that part - I am and probably will always be a band geek. Or just a geek in general, but I haven't exactly hit the Dungeons&Dragons stage in my life, but trust me when I say that I've gotten pretty close many, many times before. With all of that in mind, I think it's fair to say I've had a pretty good life and my hope is that my remotely happy lifestyle will continue following graduation. Only one way to find out, right?
What will you pick as your screen name (and alias if asked)?I was thinking about hilarious it would be if my partner thought I was male, but then I realized my name already did that anyway. And honestly, basing it off of my interests or what I'm good at is too obvious. I guess BasedSwordsman will be my username because my class in the MMO I play uses a sword (and magic, technically) and that's what I am. As for an alias, I guess I'll go with Aries because that's my astrological sign.
What are your thoughts on the project?Truthfully, I'm good behind a computer screen, so I admit to having some hopes about this project. While I'm not in desperate need of therapy or venting, maybe this will help ease some of my future stress and workload. I mean, what Seniors aren't screaming or crying eventually? I may not be right now, but that can change in a month from now. Who knows? Maybe I'll actually really like my partner.
Anything else you'd like to add?I literally hate Shakespeare. Sorry, I had to say it to someone.

Ashton's Relations && Opinions
Julian David Edmund - Minor Rivals (Somewhat Negative)While I don't "dislike" Julian, I can't say that him and I get along too well. We have opposing views and are often on the opposite side of arguments, especially when it comes to Shakespeare. It's beyond me how anyone can be so obsessed with Shakespeare when his work is nothing more than fancy dick jokes.
Jordan Welsh-Noire - Classmates (Neutral)Can't say I know much about him. Apparently, he's a new kid and is always carrying around a camera. His little sister, Celeste, has been in Wellbridge all her life and I barely know her as well. As far as I'm concerned, Jordan is a bit of a mystery. . just not a particularly interesting one.
Darius Blake Moggs - Acquaintances (Neutral) / Unknowingly Online Friends I don't really know much about him since we hardly cross paths. He's a Sophomore and I'm a Senior, so we don't have classes together and I don't really see him much outside of school. He does skateboarding, right? That's pretty cool, I guess. At least he's motivated to do what he wants.
Wilson Fuchs - Possible Friends (Positive)The only reason I really know Wilson is because he's dating Ashley and people are constantly talking about him, since he's apparently one of those really "popular kids". While I don't know him all too well, I'm pretty friendly with him and he seems like a cool guy. We don't have any classes together, but I've asked him for help on a few projects before. He's pretty reliable as far as I'm concerned.
Samuel N. Childers - Friends (Very Positive)Sam's one of the few people that I often talk to and therefore actually consider him to be a friend. Unlike most people at Wellbridge, he actually seems very intelligent, articulate and opinionated. I suppose that's something we have in common and that's why we get along so well. I still find it weird that I technically met him through Ashley - I'm more than willing to bet that he actually hates the girl.
Abigail Childers - Acquaintances (Somewhat Positive)I don't know Abigail, but I know of her. Apparently, she's another transfer student (wow, we are getting a lot of those this year) and Sam's cousin. I don't really know what she's like, but I have a bit of an idea. I'll try to keep an open mind when it comes to meeting her. Who knows? Maybe she's cool like Sam and Wilson.
Mackenzie Juniper Hemlock - Acquaintances (Neutral)Kenzie is a Sophomore without ambitions from the looks of it. Translation: we don't have any classes together and I really have no solid opinion on her as a result. The only inkling of an opinion that I may have on her is that she is a special snowflake. And even that may or may not be true.
Danera Rojas - Acquaintances (Very Positive)I don't see Danera much around school, but she comes into the shelter sometimes to see and play with the animals. She's especially fond of the puppies and while I'm not a puppy person myself, I can't help but think very highly of her. After all, she spends some of her time to make some animals feel loved. Aside from that, being around her tends to be uplifting. She's infectious like that. Honestly, if I approached her more often, I think the two of us could potentially become good friends. It also helps that I'm on good terms with her brother, too.
Jacob Rojas - Classmates (Very Positive) Jacob is a band geek like me and because of that, we've had a few classes together in the past. He also plays the violin like me aside from like four other instruments. He's pretty talented, I'll give him that much. While I honestly don't know much about him, he seems like a pretty chill guy. He hasn't done anything to make me think poorly of him and I'm also on good terms with his sister. All things considered, I guess you can say I think positively when it comes to Jacob.
Ava Johnson - Acquaintances (Neutral)I've seen Ava in the halls once or twice - that is, if she's the person I'm thinking of. The two of us have no classes together and aside from the fact that she seems a little strange, I have virtually no interest in her.
Quentin Micheal Rosso IV - Acquaintances (Very Negative)I've made the mistake of speaking to Quentin once and I have never met such an entitled and pretentious dick in all of my life. Luckily, I'm almost out of Wellbridge and he's stuck here for another two years. Sucks to be him, doesn't it?
Ivan Komolov - Acquaintances (Somewhat Negative)I don't bother with Ivan much as he's a Junior and hardly in any of my classes. I've met him twice and seen him in the hallways - he's popular, there's no doubt about it. It's not his popularity that irritates me, it's demeanor and I hardly use this term to describe anyone, but it's only fitting for Ivan - "fake". Ivan, in my opinion, is completely full of shit. Constantly.
Allen Cheshire Cross - Classmates (Neutral)Although we're in the same grade together, I probably would've never been able to guess. Allen seems more mature than most and sometimes I suspect he's been through more than most, at least judging by that eyepatch of his. Which is a little creepy, by the way. That's probably really insensitive, but I'm not saying he's a bad guy or anything, I'm just a little wary of him. I wonder how he got that eyepatch. I don't think I'll ever ask, but hey, you never know. Maybe we might end up becoming friends at some point.
Celeste Welsh-Noire - Acquaintances (Neutral)I don't know anything about Celeste and being that she's a Junior, we've never had any classes together. Apparently, she's the younger sister of the new kid, Jordan. I would've never been able to guess because the two look nothing alike. Seriously, Celeste looks like she straight up walked out of an anime or something. Honestly though, I have no real opinions on Celeste so it'd be unfair for me to ultimately label her as negative or positive.
Ashley Hart - Tutee/Possible Friends (Positive) Ashley's. . not too bad. While I do think she is a little superficial and don't approve of her actions and words towards other people, I can at least tell she cares about her grades. As far as school goes, I can tell she struggles sometimes and I'd think I would know that considering I'm her tutor. While she tends to be a little narcissistic, I'd like to think she's a good person.
