I THINK I'M LOST IN THE LETTERS.[/font]
[/blockquote][/ul]
[/b], but you can call me dani, or just reid. my birthday's february eighteenth, 1991, so if you're too lazy to do the math, that means i'm seventeen years old right now. currently, i am a junior, at newport high. you will find me hanging out with the outcast kids. i'm also a female, in case you couldn't tell. oh! and i'm also straight, and if you can live with that, i'm sure we'll be great friends."[/size][/center][/blockquote][/ul]

WHEN HER REPLY MEANT EVERYTHING.[/font] [/blockquote][/ul][/center]
"You look really familiar! Have I seen you before?"[/font][/color]
"Actually, the chances are extremely slim. I'm more of a blend into the background kind of girl. My best feature is definitely my wavy brown air that I absolutely love. It's down to my mid-back and thick, so it's easy to style. I have these pretty chocolate colored eyes Ioo. My cheeks are always rosy, thank God, because I'm so pale. I wouldn't exactly say I'm fat, but I definitely have some meat on my bones. Cris says I look like Leighton Meester, but I yell at him for his sarcasm. I have pouty lips and my body is curvy, but I'm proud of myself, because I don't look like a Newport barbie, I look like a real person."[/font]
"So, what do you like?"[/font][/color]
"I love animals, I know it sounds weird, but I do. It's because I'm so gentle. I also really love the outdoors and playing sports and stuff. You'd think I'd be a twig with all the hiking I do. Hm... I'm very opinionated, so I like to campaign and fight for causes that I believe in. I guess you could call me a modern day hippie. I have this weird addiction to vanilla milkshakes. My secret pleasures are a little more shallow than I'd like anyone to know. I actually love shopping, and I get my nails redone religiously every other Thursday. Besides those though, just the usual hanging out with friends and listening to my iPod. I am in high school after all."[/font]
"And the dislikes? What about those?"[/font][/color][/b]
"The ever popular dislike, I hate drama. But not just high school hate, pure hatred. I will go out of my way to avoid conflict because I have better things to do. I hate people who hates animals and people who wear their fur. They don't seem to understand that animals have feelings and families too. Sorry, that really gets me upset. I could really live without pollution and litter, because honestly, we live in Newport. Should it really be this dirty? I also really don't like illiteracy. I'm no genius myself, but some people really take it to the extremes. I don't like when people get too attached to me, and I don't like it when other girls get really clingy and annoying with guys. Seriously, grow up? How many is that? Hm... -thinks- Well, I don't like math..."
[/size][/font]
"And what are the things you just can't stand?"[/font][/color]
"I hate cliques and cliches. Everybody in Newport is exactly the same as all their friends and it bothers me so badly. I really can't stand it when people try to change their personality depending on who they're friends with. A real friend wouldn't want you to change, right? Mostly, I hate when people ask me personal questions, like where do I live and what I do in my spare time. I hate getting close to people. It's none of their business."[/font]
"Do you have any bad habits? What about good ones?"[/font][/color]
"Well, this should be easy. I'm very critical of myself, which I guess could count as my first bad habit. Another obvious one is that I'm very judge-mental, even when I don't mean to be. It comes very natural to me. I also am very outspoken, which turns out to be more bad than good most of the time, because people in Newport don't like originality. -headdesk- There I go again! Stop it, Dani! Oh, wait. There's another. I constantly am talking to myself. I guess it's good that I don't do it in public though, huh? I have a lot of good habits too though. One thing is that I'm very secretive. I think people's secrets are the most important thing they have, and even if I don' like you, I'd never spill your secrets. I'm a good person overall, and helpful. I do a lot of community service and charity, but I guess that's bad too, because I do it for selfish reasons. I think f how good it makes me feel. Guess I'm not as good as I thought I was..."[/font]
"Oh, really? Well, how about the secrets?"[/font][/color]
"I have maybe one huge secret that I would hate to get out. I've lived in Newport for my entire life, and I've seen people get used for every little thing possible here. Including money.... My dad Aaron Reid, is probably one of Hollywood's biggest stars, and he has been for decades. Generally, we're rolling in cash. But to practically everyone at Newport High, I'm broke. I even live in an apartment by myself, instead of my dad's Mansion, even though he still pays for everything. I separated my friends this way. If anyone found out, they'd think I'm this weird hypocrite who hates rich people while being rich herself. I don't hate rich people, I hate fake people."[/font]
"And the fears?"[/font][/color]
"I have one major fear, and that's anyone finding out where I should live, and what car I drive when I'm in Paris, and the size of my bank account. Contrary to popular belief, I'm only human, and I do care what people think of me. I'd be ruined. Another thing would be losing the only great friend I have, Cris Bate. He's my freshman friend, and the best guy I know. I'd be lost without him. The only other fear I can think of is paparazzi. No, I don't hate them. I'm actually afraid of them. I've seen what they can do to someone's reputation. It's why I have to work so hard to stay out of the spotlight."[/font]
"Do you have any special talents?"[/font][/color]
"Not really any talents. I'm a fairly average girl. But I guess you could say my eloquence. I'm smart and I use big words, but when I talk, people always listen. It has nothing to do with my status. It's just in the tone of my voice and the way I carry myself. I'm very proud of that. Another special talent is my ability to deal with animals and children. I even have a job as a camp counselor during the summer."[/font]
"And last but not least, what's your relationship status/history?"[/font][/color]
"-laughs- Virgin? Not necessarily. I've slept with maybe three guys my whole life, two of which were accidents. I had one real relationship with the guy who was my first, Donovan Westbrook. That lasted two years, freshman and sophomore year. The other two were drunken mistakes. Right now, I'm single. I'm not saying I want it to stay that way, but I'm not looking. Things will happen on their own."[/font]
call me up to confess
THAT IT'S ME YOU THINK ABOUT.[/ul][/center][/size][/b]"Where were you born?"[/font][/color]
"I used to live in Hollywood. I was born there, actually. I grew up there too, actually, until about the fifth grade, so when I was like ten, I moved to Newport. It's not much farther, but oh well. I hated it there. Hollywood is the center of everything in California, and I needed to get away from it all. Now I'm just here in Newport, hiding... To be fair, life is more normal here, but I'm alwayson edge. Anybody could find out at any moment, so I'm very careful."[/font]
"And what's up with your family?"[/font][/color]
"My dad's name is Aaron Reid. Maybe you've heard f him? Perhaps in such box office its such as the Negotiator series and the everpopular teen comedy Shut Your Mouth! Along with countless others. So, that generally means he's in the spotlight a ton. I don't hld it against him that he's not around much, because I wouldn't know even if he was, since I no longer live with them. I stop by ften, but not too often. I actually like him though, he's a decent father, and he loves me. He knew his career shouldn't affect me, so he let me move out. The point is that I find him to be a wonderful guy.
My mother though is an entirely different story. Kim Rhodes-Reid. She was never a star, just a groupie that my dad found especially attractive in his early twenties. They got together and made me. She's a gold-digger, always has been and always will be. She wears designer clothes and expensive jewelry and looks at me like I'm the alien because I don't. Don't get me wrong, she loves me too, but she thinks she knows what's best. If it were up to her, I'd still be trapped in that house. She tries to make me into a debutante, but I don't want to be. I'll hmor her eevry so often and go with her to her stupid salon to get our hair done, but never more than that. When I was younger, she made me have a cotillion, and I've been angry at her ever since.
No brothers or sisters or anything. It's a surprise, since I've been such a terrible daughter, that my mother hasn't tried for another. My dad says I'm good enough for him. I do have this specifically atrocious cousin, though. She's almost as famous as my dad is. Her name is Mia, she just turned twenty, and she's the pride and jy of my whole family. The truth is, she's a supermodel, super famous actually, and she lives with me in my apartment. Don't ask, not my idea. My mother agreed to let my stay living on my own if Mia could come, because she thinks Mia will somehow rub off on me and make me want to be famous. Whatever."[/font]
"Now, tell me your story."[/font][/color]
"I was born on July 7th, but I was concieved on a windy October night, in my dad's dressing room after a premiere party. It was my dad's first meeting with the gold-digger groupie that would eventually entrap him into marriage with a daughter. No, that's not the real story, but that's how I like to make it seem. Truthfully, they did meet at a premiere party, but nothing happened. They met in June, got to know each ther for a few months, then he proposed to her. I was concieved on their honeymoon, which actually was in October. I was planned, sadly, so they didn't give me up for adoption. I had no say as to who my family would be.
We lived in Hollywood, and I wasn't homeschooled. I went to a public school until fifth grade when we all moved to this amazingly huge house in Newport. After that, I went to this terrible prep school until the middle of my sophomore year at high school. That's when I moved out on my own, and transferred to Newport High. I'm not exactly the new girl anymore. I had one great friend already, Cris Bate. He's my only friend that knows I'm the daughter of one of the most famous actors of our time. His parents and my parents were great friends, so I've known him since I was about five years old.
Why did I move out on my own? At the old prep school, I had this steady boyfriend, Donovan Westbrook, and I thought we were in love. Long story short, he broke up with me, and tried to get with Mia. She obviously didn't go for it, but being there was still too hard to deal with. Newport's a lot better. No guys have really caught my eye, but it's alright. My schoolwork is fantastic, Oxford here I come. I don't have many friends, I'm sort of an outcast, but I get by. Nothing is really important to me anymore. oh well. Maybe things will get better? I haveplenty of time to work out a social life. I'll make my own fame."[/font]
