    <content type="html">&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Name:&lt;/b&gt; Tess &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Nickname(s):&lt;/b&gt; Countessa, Tessius Goatius, Lady Tess, etc . . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Age:&lt;/b&gt; 14, nearing 15. I act like an eighty year, though, drinking tea and wearing cardigans . . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Location:&lt;/b&gt; Australia &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Choose three adjectives that describe you:&lt;/b&gt; Dramatic, eccentric, wise. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Choose three adjectives that describe your weaknesses:&lt;/b&gt; Easily persuaded, emotional, hot tempered &lt;b&gt;What is your favorite Jane Austen novel? Why?:&lt;/b&gt; Persuasion, because . . . it just seems more real, more heartfelt than the other novels. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Who is your favorite Jane Austen character and why?:&lt;/b&gt; Well, perhaps Marianne Dashwood. I relate to her more than the other characters, but, then again, no one can really beat Mr. Darcy. *swoon* &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Do you agree with the quote, &lt;i&gt;the course of true love never did run smooth&lt;/i&gt;? Explain:&lt;/b&gt; Yes, I do. Love never is without it's trials and it may prevail that true love is the only one that has the reason to survive through the hard times. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What do you like to do in your spare time?:&lt;/b&gt; Read, write, explore, play piano, clarinet, sing, make films. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Please explain the origin/meaning of your username:&lt;/b&gt; Lady Countessa . . .well, my name means Countess, hence 'Countessa' and that was already taken. I suppose one can never have too many titles. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Are you close with your family and if so, which members?:&lt;/b&gt; My mother and father especially; I'm an only child, so I haven't any siblings to confide in. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Describe for us what your house/apartment/bedroom/dorm room looks like (and post pictures if you’d like):&lt;/b&gt; Quite messy, but cosy, warm, blue, full of books and beloved things . . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What city or country have you never been to but would like to visit and why?:&lt;/b&gt; Andorra. I have had a certain fixation about it ever since I saw it in an atlas late last year. Just another of my eccentricities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Aside from fictional characters, who is someone you admire, and what do you admire about them?:&lt;/b&gt; Well . . . my friends, really. They're all different and I admire that. I admire them for different reasons, obviously . . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What do you love most about your closest friends and what makes you so close?:&lt;/b&gt; Our desire to be different from the rest of society. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What really upsets you?:&lt;/b&gt; Injustice, especially to elderly people. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;If a friend takes you to a party where you know no one else, how do you act?:&lt;/b&gt; I put on a mask and pretend to be more confident than I really am. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What valuable mementos do you keep from childhood or from your past?:&lt;/b&gt; Harry Potter books, bears and memories. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Post at least 3 pictures of your self:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;img height="240" alt="" width="320" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lady_countessa/pic/0000144c/s320x240" /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lady_countessa/pic/00002ew3/"&gt;&lt;img height="240" alt="" width="218" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lady_countessa/pic/00002ew3/s320x240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pics.livejournal.com/lady_countessa/pic/0000394g/"&gt;&lt;img height="240" alt="" width="320" border="0" src="http://pics.livejournal.com/lady_countessa/pic/0000394g/s320x240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Anything else?:&lt;/b&gt; Spoooooooooooooons. That was awkward.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;</content>
