Pros: Serena knows how to have a good time. Whether it be playing a game of soccer, or spicing up a party, she’ll likely be up for it, or even suggest it. She isn’t afraid to simply let loose and be herself around others, because, honestly, if she doesn’t agree with their opinion, she couldn’t give two sh*ts. Being sure and very self-confident is both one of her positive and negative traits, mostly because she is not afraid to be blunt and to the point.
She’s also an amazing listener, and can hold her tongue on secrets. Frequently she has been there for friends –close or otherwise- to listen to whatever ails them. Under no circumstances would she decide to tell someone else’s secret to another person, and thus she has been told she is very loyal.
Easily, she can relax and fit in to a new area as though it were her own home, and she’s fairly laid back.
Cons: As mentioned above, her self-confidence often attracts negative attention to herself. Often she acts as though she is more superior than those around her, and can make others feel a bit belittled. She also becomes very territorial about her friends and environment. If she feels she or something dear to her is threatened, even in the slightest, she instantly becomes cold and hateful. Some might be wondering how this is a “con”, but the best example is with new people at her school or work, often she will act bitter towards them if she feels they might be trying to push their way into her circle of friends, or at her work. She doesn’t like her life being changed or altered.
Appears lazy often, as in most cases than others, she would rather nap and sleep than do much else.
Can seem naggy and pushy to get what she wants.

Likes: laying in the sun, playing sports games such as soccer (her favourite) or football (second favourite), sleeping and taking naps, food -particularly fish-, listening to music, dancing and having a good time, showers, snuggling.
Dislikes: swimming and being in water (with the exception of showers, because she likes being clean), barking dogs, the rain (although I guess this counts as water, lol), the cold, most small animals, mornings when she has to wake up.

Bio:
The name’s Serena. Although if you’re one of my friends or a part of my family, you’ll probably know me as Kitten.
I’m a shapeshifter, which is where I got my nickname, but that’s hardly relevant in the scheme of things.
I was born in Ontario, Canada eh, but just recently have I moved to America. Still in the process of making friends, though it’s not exactly on the top of my list. Making friends, I mean. I’m independent and strong, and don’t feel the need to fill in that place in my life. Don’t get me wrong, I like having friends, and wouldn’t mind it if I picked up a few on the way, but my priorities are other places right now.

If you catch me on my down time at home, I’ll most likely be either sleeping or eating. I love to eat, especially light meats. Pork chops are alright, I suppose, but my favourites are ham, chicken, quail, turkey... okay, really any type of bird, most fish, except salmon, that stuff’s disgusting, and most combined meats like hotdogs or sausages. Oh my gosh, have you ever tried creamed chicken? It is amazing. A thick, creamy sauce, with cheese, lots of cheese... I love dairy products... milk, yogurt, cheese... sorry, my mind was wandering again.

When I first changed, it was into my cat. Not a cat, my cat. It was very confusing for us both, trust me. But ever since then, I’ve really only turned into a cat. We’re so similar, if you couldn’t already tell. I love cats. Independent, calm, cool and collected, confident, cuddly, loving, always there for you. My friends always used to joke that I’d be the crazy cat lady when I grew up. Sounds good to me.

But, I’ll catch up with you later, all that talk of food has made me hungry. Then I’ll probably go take a nice nap. I always feel a little drowsy after eating, and the best of dreams always comes after eating a nice, hearty meal.
((AN: Yeah... as I went down, her personality started changing a little xD She gets really excited about food =P . And now she’s made me hungry >.> . I apologize for the pros/cons description, it kinda sucked compared to what I usually write... but I had a bit of writer’s block, lol))
