I’m a 16 year old British girl, currently (July 2011) going into my last year of A levels and getting ready for the next chapter of my life... University. When I’m not troping, I like to watch and make Youtube videos, singing (soprano if you’re interested) and obsessing over whatever fandom/character I’ve attached myself to until I’ve run out of information to garner about it/them.

Tropes that apply to me:

• Alternative Character Interpretation: I have several personas that I put on automatically when around different people. This has lead to two people who I rarely see in the same situation talking about me and being unable to believe they're talking about the same person.
• Ambiguously Jewish: I am a quarter Jewish. It depends on my mood/company/who you are how much I play up to this.
• Apologises a Lot: Why yes, I have apologised for apologising before.
• Armchair psychology: To some it's one of my best traits. And to others it's one of my worst.
• Asperger Syndrome
• Big Eater: I used to be a Picky Eater, but then I hit growth spurt and never looked back.
• British Accents: Of the stereotypically posh variety. Half the comments on my Youtube videos are along the lines of:
  OMG I love your accent!
• Cannot Tell a Joke: My anecdotes tend to be longwinded and have no punchline except
  I thought it was funny...
• Covered in Kisses: My mum eventually had to make a rule about kissing strangers...
• Easily Amused
• Freudian Excuse
• Genki Girl: One of my personas.
• Goshdang It To Heck: I tend to use alternate expletives, such as 'fudgecakes' or 'Oh my non-specific deity'. The flip side to this is that when I do swear, it's hilarious.
• I Am Not Shazam: My real name isn't Ginny.
• Kids Prefer Boxes: When I moved away from Lincoln, to Oxford where it snows much less, I got my parents to keep any polystyrene chips so I could pretend it was snow.
• Manic Pixie Dream Girl: I sometimes try to be this. It doesn't always work.
• Multiple Choice Past: Not so much anymore, but I used to make up stories about my past with different people. After it got to the point where I had to try and remember which version people knew, I knew it was time to stop.
• Nerd: I am a Nerdfighter, and before you ask no we do not fight nerds. We, in fact, are nerds.
• Playing Sick: I used to take this to a whole other level: I'd convince myself I was sick, then I seemed perfectly genuine.
• Proud to Be a Geek
• Self-Deprecation: In case all my examples aren't enough of a hint :)
• Spoiler Hound: Oh so very much...
• Wise Beyond Their Years
• You Make Me Sic: Living with an English teacher rubs off on you.
• Younger than I look: The most extreme example was when someone asked if I was a teacher at a local university.
