Luke's personality has some good points and some bad points. Some of the good points are that he is kind, funny, cool, loving, dramatic, loyal, headstrong, and best of all he has a lot of love to give. The bad points are that he is stubborn, quick to speak, overly dramatic, impatient, and lazy.
Middle school kids can bring out the good points in everyone. Luke is in middle school and sometimes the situations that come make him show these things. Luke defends kids when others don't, and that is a good point, but when he curses at someone and makes them feel sad about themselves that is a bad point. Luke has knowledge of things which affect his personality a lot. History is something that he looks to for understanding of such things that he faces today like racism, war and politics.
The love that he shows his family affects his personality because he learns how to give and take. Friendship is also important. Luke feels that you have to be a loyal to be a good friend even if the other kids exclude them because they are not cool. Luke's overall appearance is a young preteen (12 years old). He has Carmel brown skin, dark brown eyes and hair. He is 53" tall and medium weight. One distinctive feature is that he has dimples when he gives his great smile. Luke has a deep scar on the bottom of his chin, and he also wears braces on his teeth (which are not shining).
Some of his movements are goofy, cool walks with a limp, stiff and when he says stiff he means to act stiff in your movements when he is scared nervous. Gestures: Luke can be very dramatic, he jumps and waves his hand violently to greet someone.
Speech pattern: He says "peace" instead of saying "goodbye". He sometimes will speak proper English and than start to speak slang. Loudness is also a speech pattern of Luke's.
Luke's clothes style can be very different, sometimes it's jeans and a tee shirt, army vintage clothing and other times he will wear more hip clothes for special events. His style is not ghetto wear, or rappers, more middle of the road.
In school I am sometimes good and sometimes bad. One good thing I do is copy all the writing on the board and also try most of the time to pay attention in class. The bad thing is that I talk a lot and sometimes forget where I am. In school I am on time for class and always bring a pen or a pencil. In school I participate in class activities. In school I can’t play with my cards or run out to the store to get a drink. In school I sometimes have to write a lot, which is annoying.
Outside of school
I can play with my friends and have water fights. Outside of school I play
video games or go outside and play with whatever I want all day.
Outside of school I play with my magic cards and I play fight with my wooden
swords .I can enjoy my day and be with the people I like and have fun.
In the past I played with my imagination more and I played with action
figures. In the past I watched cartoons more than I do now. In the
past I cried more
and I did not understand a lot of things. I loved to play “teenagers” this
was a game my friends and I played; we would act like teenagers and
our bikes would be motorcycles.
In the present I talk to my friends on my cell phone and sometimes I play
with video games. I now know a lot more than I did. I also like skateboarding.
I
don't play imaginary games a lot and I don't play “teenagers” any
more because now I don't have to pretend to play it because I am going to
be a teenager
soon. In the present I care more about what I wear and now I have more responsibility.
With friends I talk about things that are happening in our kid community
and about friends and comic books. With friends I talk a lot of slang and
I sometimes
use curse words. With friends I play some sports and video games. With
friends I try to dress cool , act cool and be tough. Sometimes I just
act like myself.
With grownups I try to act proper and treat them with respect. I don't
always tell them my secrets but sometimes I do. With grownups I talk
about things
that I am doing and things that are happening in the world. With grownups
I play and
laugh with them sometimes and sometimes I don't. With grownups I help them
in their work.
