Lucy is an Asian girl of average height, being five foot five and weighing a healthy 123.4 pounds. She is of Korean descent, both of her parents having been born in South Korea. The young woman prefers to keep her hair long and of a dark brown shade, though she went through a phase where she dyed her hair auburn, and is overly concerned with her personal hygiene. Before she goes to breakfast or goes to bed, Lucy performs a regiment skin care ritual on her face in order to keep it clear and soft and places protective hair products in her strands to keep it silky and shiny. When Lucy was fifteen, she was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) which affects her body weight and menstrual cycle. As such, Lucy can only have a small amount of sugar a day and tends to obsess over the amount of calories she intakes.
When it comes to her physical appearance, Lucy treats her fashion choices with care and dons only designer brand clothes. She prefers to wear lace and cotton when it comes to her clothes and she has a predilection for dresses. However, as of late, she has found a new love for sweaters and cardigans with fashionable brand name jeans and has worn a couple of her roommate’s cotton shirts when getting ready early in the morning was too tiring. Her personal style could be described as a sophisticated preppy fashion style with her trendy, simple dresses or high-waisted skirts. Lucy likes jewel or peter pan necklines over any other neckline and downright refuses to wear a sweetheart neckline. Lucy is careful to balance her expensive clothes with only a light amount of jewelry, usually simple earrings - her favorite are her pearl earrings - and a silver necklace with one ring on her finger. Her nails are always perfectly manicured with French tips and her makeup is more natural and light than heavy or gaudy. Lucy's hair is almost always down, with the occasional bun or braid here and there. The only time she will be caught dead with a ponytail is if she is working out or sleeping. Lucy loves silk and as such will only wear silk pajamas and undergarments. Because of her perfume, Lucy tends to smell like oranges and lilies, though she will occasionally apply coconut body lotion.
When money isn’t even remotely a problem growing up, it’s a given that you grow up a little spoiled – or at least, that’s what most people think when they meet Lucy for the first time. They’re quick to label her as a stupid little rich girl – and, for the most part, they’re right. Having money and parents that let her do whatever she wanted, Lucy did whatever she wanted and, most of the time, she didn’t have to pay the consequences for it. Because she lived a punishment-less childhood, Lucy’s selfish in the way that she only really thinks about her feelings in situations and often forgets to think of how others feel. Furthermore, she’s careless and doesn’t stop to think about how her actions will harm others and, when she does hurt others, often doesn’t apologize for it (though that’s more of a proud thing than a cruel thing). In this way, Lucy is insensitive – she says things and mentions things flippantly that can hurt others deeply, though she doesn’t do so out of malice, but out of ignorance, she still doesn’t bother to correct her ways. It also doesn’t help Lucy’s case with the fact that she is extremely shallow and superficial – though she doesn’t value beauty over other attributes, appearances that aren’t too her liking subconsciously affect her thinking since she has been raised amongst Gucci, Versace, and Prada. Lucy makes judgmental connections in her head when she sees a person’s appearance – if someone is unruly looking, she tends to have a preconceived notion that they’re poor or lazy or unhygienic, when that’s definitely not always the case. And, Lucy won’t lie, appearance plays a big role to her when choosing her better half. Overly critical and judgmental, Lucy has a hard time making friends with other people due to the fact that she is rather picky with the friends she keeps and can come off as narcissistic because she is rather open with her one-look verdicts. On the other side of the coin, other people’s judgement of her ultimately boils down to her materialism: Lucy breathes and lives designer brands, the best of technology, and only five-star food. There’s a hole of loneliness in her and Lucy fills it with material, corporeal items like handbags, heels, and helicopters – okay, that last one is a stretch.
When it comes to her self-image, Lucy tries to project a cold, stylish, sophisticated mature woman who is intelligent and well-versed in the ways of the world. This image crumbles the moment she opens her mouth. Going hand in hand with her spoiled nature, Lucy acts like a kid and is immature – not so much in annoying humor or juvenile thoughts, but in her reactions to day-to-day situations. Instead of keeping a level-head about things and trying to understand others’ point of view, Lucy immaturely snaps and gets angry, as well as the slightest bit petty. When angered like this, she becomes vindictive and holds grudges – but her revenge plans aren’t so much as Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights. No, when Lucy is mad and wants revenge, she sticks to badly-thought out insults flung their way and immature pranks as well with the occasional refusal to cooperate when needed. On the same vein of her immaturity, Lucy is overemotional and can take impersonal things incredibly personal. Crying fits and angry childish tantrums aren’t so rare when around her.
Lucy knows she has many faults – she’s not so stupid to think she doesn’t – but because of her pride, Lucy refuses to admit when she’s in the wrong. When someone does something nice for, or helps her out of a sticky situation, its unlikely Lucy will thank them but rather come up with an excuse to not have to – even though she appears ungrateful, she is deep, deep inside.
People are quick to label Lucy as a stupid, little rich girl – and, for the most part, they’re right. Except for the fact that Lucy isn’t that stupid, after all. Yes, she may lack common sense, and she may not be the best in social situations, Lucy is rather intelligent. She’s not the arrogant, born-smart, pretentious kind of intelligent that many kids are these days – she was a bit slow when she was younger – but rather, Lucy is works hard for knowledge. If there is anything Lucy treasures more than materialism, it’s knowledge – she likes to know things and has a curious, childlike soul. Lucy can spend hours in a nonfiction book, watching a documentary, or learning things firsthand through a little bit of experience. When she’s set on a path, Lucy is dedicated and won’t stop until her goal is achieved – she works and works and works until papercuts litter her unusually soft hands and her typically tidy apartment is a mess. Even when working on assignments for her classes, Lucy has to get everything right and perfect as perfectionists like her are wont to do.
Of course, her intelligence isn’t the only good thing about her. People can complain all day and night about her rich girl syndrome, about her shallow behavior, but in the end…Lucy is pure. Not so much pure as innocent – though that’s not much of a stretch either, Lucy is quite naïve – but as in completely and utterly genuine. What you see is what you get with her. Lucy doesn’t play games, Lucy doesn’t manipulate people, or lie. She’s actually rather candid (a little bit too much, to be honest). Lucy is warm and trusting and optimistic and wholly youthful. She doesn’t have a care in the world – she’s light-hearted and doesn’t let the bad things to get her, but instead enjoys the moment in the now, whether it be catching snowflakes on her tongue or sprinting through spring fields. She always sees the best in people, though they don’t always see the best in her, and she has an inherently trusting personality: she doesn’t much question others, which can be quite dangerous in retrospect. Not only so, but Lucy is honest – she only lies when she thinks she absolutely has to, which she rarely does think so, or when she’s protecting her pride. Lucy’s an open book with confidence and doesn’t bother with that whole “hard to read” crap. She’s also loyal to her friends and would betray them for the world.
Lucy was born into the 1%. Her father owned several store chains and her mother was a famous lawyer who worked for A List celebrities and politicians. Because of their jobs, the parents often were very busy and spent most of their time away from the house – but that doesn’t mean they weren’t loving toward Lucy. Every day they would call her as she went to bed to check on her and they never missed a single birthday. But her parents still had a sense of guilt for not being there when they should be – for school plays and friends’ birthday parties – and they often compensated for their lack of appearance with material items, hence Lucy’s materialistic personality.
Lucy is a very curious person, so as a little kid, she had many mysteries she wished to find out. One of them being what was inside her Dell computer – when she was seven years old, Lucy entertained herself by taking apart her computer part for part and then see if she could put it back again. As she grew older, the technology she took apart slowly changed from the old styled computers to nice, Mac laptops and the newest iPhone. When she was satisfied with knowing how the engineering worked, Lucy became even more curious about how the parts made the computer work and became studying computer science when she was fifteen.
Though her family life was rather normal, Lucy had a hard time making friends throughout her life. People tended to fall under two categories for Lucy: people who hated her because of her personality and people who pretended to love her because of her money. Whether her generalization was true or not is another story. As such, Lucy tended to only keep a couple of people as friends – and she never really got close to them, considering if she did, her gossip would be all over the school the next day. She tended to buy her friends with money, buying them things so they won’t leave her.
Nothing really substantial ever happened in her life that warrants special attention, except for her going away to college. After high school, Lucy left and bought her own house in Bainbridge Island. She wasn’t exactly used to living in such a small place and it felt quite lonely, so she bought herself a dog to keep her company - a beautiful Tibetan mastiff named Bumblebee. Lucy takes most of her computer science courses online, but every Thursday she ventures out to the university in Seattle.
