This troper provides examples of:

• Brainy Brunette: Naturally.
• Breaking the Fourth Wall: My cousin and I frequently pretend that a cameraman named Bill is following us around and making a documentary. This is mostly so we can make faces at and talk to nothing for no apparent reason and freak out our friends.
• Closer to Earth: As mentioned below, I'm a bit flighty sometimes, but I'm also more practical than romantic.
• Cute Clumsy Girl
• Deadpan Snarker
• Ditzy Genius: I read Shakespeare, can do simple calculus in my head, and frequently forget the order of the letters of the alphabet. It's a burden I must bear.
• Get Thee to a Nunnery: Yes, I admit it... I giggle whenever someone mentions "wit".
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Anyone who's a jerk to my friends will be verbally castrated, but that doesn't mean I can't snark at them.
• Little Girls Kick Shins
• Little Miss Snarker
• Mama Bear: To my sister and my younger friends.
• Naïve Everygirl
• Small Reference Pools: No. Useful reference pool? That's another matter.
• The Smart Guy: I'm also The Quirk and The Chick sometimes. (Okay, most of the time.)
• TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life: See below. I've started thinking about my life in terms of tropes.

This troper's friends provide examples of:

• Beauty, Brains and Brawn: Maggie, Tori, Annie, respectively.
• Five-Man Band:
  • The Hero: Tori
  • The Lancer: Fatima
  • The Smart Guy: Megan
  • The Big Guy: Annie
  • The Chick: Also Tori.
  • Sixth Ranger: Amanda.
• Hair of Gold: Megan and Maggie
• Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Maggie's boyfriend Andrew, who I did not like at first, but Maggie thought I adored.

This troper is a fan of:

• Alias: Mostly the first two seasons.
• Bringing Up Baby: Oh goodness. I love screwball comedies, and this is the best one. Period.
• Golden Age of Hollywood: I love old movies.
• Harry Potter: The movies and the books. My favorite ship is Ron/Hermione.
• Leverage: For some reason, I really like stories about con artists.
• Marlon Brando: Does this need an explanation?
• Moonlighting: The Fourth Wall breaking, the UST, Bruce Willis - it's fantastic.
• On the Waterfront
• William Shakespeare: Specifically - A Midsummer Night's Dream, Much Ado About Nothing, and Othello.
