At first she is a shy girl. But this changes abruptly when you get to know her. She can be funny, sweet, devilish, fun, and very friendly. She's not at the top of her class, but is a very responsible and smart girl. Not one to be angered, she'll bite back if annoyed to a certain point. But most importantly, she is beautiful and has a great personality.
