13	!! About Me

15	Hi there! Now I'm not sure if there's an albatross around my neck, or if ''I'm'' the albatross. My name is Lucas, and I'm a sixteen year-old about-to-be junior in high school. I intend on majoring in Psychology with a minor in Gender Studies or another comparable minor. I'm going to place a heavy focus on Social Psychology classes because those are where my interests lie. Hailing from a small town in Texas, I actually ''don't'' own a pair of (admittedly tacky) cowboy boots. I do, however, own a cute little frame on my dresser that says Lucas means "determined and poetic" in Latin. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but it reflects my personality well. [[YourMileageMayVary Or at least I think so]].

17	!!! Personal Tropes
18
19	* {{All of the Other Reindeer}}: I never seem to fit in anywhere, not even on the internet.
20	* {{The Anti-Nihilist}}: I strive whole-heartedly to embody this, but sometimes my stringent pessimism and depressive tendencies get in the way.
21	* {{Berserk Button}}: People who violate my privacy, people who readily succumb to their circumstances, people who sympathize stupidity and people who stereotype me, themselves, and/or other people.
22	* {{Character Tics}}: I rub my nose or some other part of my face when anxious/perturbed. I also have a bad stutter when I'm irritated or overstimulated, which can lead to some rather {{Narm}}y moments.
23	* {{Gay Best Friend}}: I often feel pigeonholed by others into playing the part, much to my chagrin.
24	* {{I Just Want to Be Beautiful}}: I have a mild case of BDD, and [[InternalizedCategorism I feel that I must uphold the "positive" stereotypes of a gay guy]].
25	* {{In Love with Love}}: Guilty as charged, I have a penchant to romanticize relationships and LoveInterests.
26	* {{Knight in Sour Armor}}
27	* {{The Quiet One}}: I'm excessively self-conscious about what comes out of my mouth, so more often than not I opt to not say anything at all. [[TheSnarkKnight If I sense weakness, however, I won't hesitate to put my two cents in]].
28	* {{Self-Deprecation}}: My humor of choice.
29	* {{Stepford Snarker}}
30	* {{Team Dad}}: This is the role I most often play in group relationships.
31	* {{Weight Woe}}: I have a bad habit of watching my weight and calorie intake like a hawk.
32	* {{Wide-Eyed Idealist}}: [[UsedtoBeaSweetKid When I was younger]], [[ExtremeDoormat I felt as if I needed to serve others in order to be accepted]].
