-Laura Syth- 19, step sister
physical appearance: [at least three paragraphs. tell us how they look. no perfect people. everyone has some flaws.]
Where to start? For one thing, Andrew isn't short. You can call him a normal guys size, putting him at 6'1. Maybe he's a little bit taller than normal guys then. He doesn't have amazing bright eyes, but they are a simple hazel brown. Not to dashing one might say, but it fits his face. Andrew has a round face, and likes to keep it clean shaven. It's rare to see him without his face shaved. Facial hair never really called to him. The color of his hair pretty much matches his eyes, but it's a little bit darker because of the sun, making it a light brown. Andrew doesn't really care about his hair too much and keeps it the easy way, short, almost like a crew cut sort of way. There's too much trouble in keeping it longer and he doesn't want to put effort into gelling it, styling it or whatever. That's more of a girls thing to him. He's just not one of those guys who's very into his hair. So he kept it at a "crewcut" so to call it. Short, and if you touch it, it has that fuzzy/spikey feeling. Just touch it yourself to really see.
Best describe Andrew's body is to say he's fit. He's not buff, or overly muscled. Typical althletes body. Ever since he was younger, Andrew has always been into sports and still does play to this day. His favorite is basketball, but he has also been on the football team, lacrosse, and others, but those are the most he plays on. He works out often when he makes the time. He likes keeping himself healthy, but it doesn't mean he is a complete health freak. Oh he eats his junk food.
Andrew has a very slight tan, but not a major one. He's an outdoor type of guy, so he gets it from being in the sun a lot. It's more of a natural tan too, since his mother was very tan. Andrew has 1 tatoo. It's on his back and goes across his shoulder area. "Strength" is what it reads and it's in black fancy oldy type cursive. Besides that, the only other thing you might want to know about his apperance is that he has scars throught his body. They are not very big, but if you are close enough you can see some visible ones. There is only 1 on his right arm, and the rest are mainly on his lower back. Unfortunatly these scars come from when he was beaten as a young child by his father.
clothing style: [at least one paragraph. how do they dress?]
As for his clothing style. You can call him a prep by the way he dresses, but he doesn't really classify himself as any type based on his clothes. Dressing nice is a thing Andrew likes. One of his favorite things to hang around in his gym shorts and old t-shirts. Most of the time thogh, you find this guy out partying. When he's out, you find him in jeans and polos. He loves PacSun and Hollister. He's not very picky where he gets his clothes at, and will pretty buy from anywhere. He also loves cologne. There migth never be a time where you don't smell some kind of cologne on him, maybe except sleeping working out, stuff like that. Overall, in general Andrew likes to look good. Being around the barn is different though. Usually he is found in old polo's or t-shirts, and "wife beaters" and jeans, and of course either sneakers, or boots.

Well for starters, Andrew does not care what other people think of him and wont let that bother him. With that made out, a big thing Andrew has been known for doing stupid stuff. It could be dangerous, but hey, if it's fun you'll most likely see him doing it, with friends. He doesn't really do that stuff without friends. As he has gotten older, Andrew has calmed down a bit in that area. He still loves having fun though. Andrew is a very social guy and loves meeting new people. It's very easy for him to go up to someone and talk to them.
Andrew tends to have the attitude of being a jerk and an asshole. Yes, he definatly can be one, but he's not thingyy. Maybe if you really get to know him, it really isn't one at heart. He doesn't really mean to come off as a jerk or anything, it just happens. Andrew doesn't get pissed off evetremly easily, but if you do, oh boy, have fun. Andrew isn't extremely trustworthy of new people easily. Sure he'll be friendly and open with you, but he will not go into the nitty gritty. It'll take a while for you to get to know him and, if you break his trust, it will be near impossible to get it back.
As mentioned before, Andrew is a huge party boy; hardcore at that. He can go all night, sleep the day, and go all day over and over if given the chance. Unfortunately, life sets in sometimes and doesn't allow him to do that all the time, but once again he has calmed down a bit since he is getting older with more responsibilites. When it comes to the ladies, oh man he is definalty a ladies guy. He is definatly flirty. If there is no other guy around a girl he thinks is hott, Michael is on it. If he is with a girl, he'll fight for her no matter what. .
Abuse. One thing Andrew absolutely hates. After being abused before, anytime he sees it, he goes in to help, whether by fighting, or helping the person and talking about it, or anything. If he finds out a person he truly cares about is being abused, Andrew will go and hurt the person who is abusing them. THis tends to leave Andrew as being aggressive, and defensive. It based on a mere reaction to here someone is being abused really. Maybe all Michael needs is to find that special someone to really help him out with his problems so to say. He does care about his friends and family and if you have his trust and heart for you, he'll do anything for that person.
history: [at least four paragraphs. tell us everything]
Andrew hasn't had the best life most people would like to have. It all begins when he was just a mere 4 years old. His father started abusing him secretly and threathed to hurt him even more if Andrew ever told anyone. Tramatized, Andrew never did. It was mainly physical abuse, and on a very rare occasion, sexual, but Andrew barely remembers that part. The excuse for all Andrew's cuts and bruises was the daycare. Although this is a big event in his life, it might not be the most tramatizing. The biggest tramatizing event happened one night, when once again his parents were fighting yet again. His mother put him in their bedroom closet and told him to be a good boy. There was a small crack from the closet doors which he could see through. There was a long time before the yelling and things breaking became louder. Wide eyed,Andrew watched through the closet of his parents fighting. To his horror, withing seconds, he witnessed his father shot his mother in the head. Since he was so young, Andrew did not know how to react and continued to sit in the exact same spot and not move until the police had come and found him during their search.
Andrew has never talked about this event very much, not even to police officers. It takes someone who he really trust and cares about for him to tell him. Andrew was taken into foster care until they could see if family members might be able to take him in. Since no family was able too, the search was on for a family to adopt him. One family proved that point. Andrew was eventually adopted into the Syth family. It did take him a while to warm up and eventually grow into his personality. WIth the Syth family, Andrew was able to live in a normal life. This family ran a small horse riding farm, and that is where Andrew learned to ride horses with them.
Ever since seeing his father killed his mom, he was never close to his step father. He was always getting into arguments with him. Andrew always thought he was up to no good with his step mom, but he really didn't know. WIth the constant fighting, Andrew resolved to drugs and alchohal many times, and still does on occasion, but drinks more. Eventually his step parents got a divorce, Andrew staying with his mother of course.
riding expierence: [at least one paragraph. talk about years riding, past horses, disciplines, etc.]
Andrew was never into the horse scene until he was adopted. His adoptive family owned a riding stable and this is where Andrew learned to ride. Andrew grew to absolutely love horses and began showing soon after learning the basics of riding. Ever since then he has been hooked with showing and of course horses. He got his first horse when he was was 12, a black appaloosa mare named Midnight. The riding farm was an english riding farm, so Andrew learned to ride english. Put a western saddle in front of him, it's different. He really doesn't know much about western events and riding, but he has been on a western saddle. Andrews favorite event is jumping and he has competed successfully in it. He is getting more into eventing now, but does not care too much for dressage, but since it's apart of eventing, he is slowly learning more about it.

Estabrooke Academy. Well, he could say that he was finally here for one thing. He wasn't even suppose to be here. Yet again after going to another boarding school, he had been shipped off to another one. Thankfully, and hopefully after his senior year he could do whatever he wanted. There would be no one to tell him what to do, when to do it. Shit, he hadn't even been in this town for barely more than what, an hour and a half? Probably. Upon arriving, Michael was sent to the academic office, where he would be told the rules, where he would be staying, all that pretty much boring stuff. After being lectured, Michael wanted to call it that, he was told that he could leave his bags with them and explore the place a little. He probably didn't have a room or something. Michael wasn't actually sure what they were going to do with his bags, search them? His own mother watching him pack for god sakes. But after watching them put it into some type of closet, he relaxed a little bit. The people in the office seemed to be going back to what they were doing before he arrived, so Michael decided to take up the guy's advice on checking out the place. He would much rather be doing that than get stuck in here all day.
Walking into the bright sunshine, Michael looked around. In the distance he could see students walking around doing their own thing. Shrugging, Michael walked forward, going to find stuff on his own at the moment. Pulling the hoodie off his head, Michael stuck his hands in his pockets of his jeans. So maybe it was a bit hot for a hoodie, but he was comfortable. It was one of his favorite hoodies actually, the band Tool was printed on the front, and on the back it had their famous eye. Michael thought they were an amazing band. Thinking of them, he pulled out his ipod to listen to them. His head bobbed slowly as he walked down the paths, not really knowing where he was going. Well, eventually he'll find out. Singing loudly, not that he had a horrible voice, he continued walking and it seemed to be leading him into some type of town, or well social place. Michael once again looked around, more people here and they all seemed to be with their friends hanging out. Figures; it's not like he knows anyone in this place. He hasn't been here for very long anyways. Michael didn't think it would take a long time to start meeting new people and make friends. After all he was a very friendly and out going guy.
Starting to walk into an area that seemed to have a lot of food spots, Michael spotted a Starbucks. Ah, now that would do just the trick. Opening the door, Michael stepped into a crowded Starbucks. Just passing threw people he managed to get to the cashier. Taking off an earpiece, he knew exactly what he was ordering. Hey man, I'll get a tall Mocha frap. The guy behind the cashier nodded and went to make his drink. Soon after it was put in front of him. Giving him the money he nodded ot him and found a seat at a small booth, facing the doorway. Ah, the drink was very cold and good. Atleast he knew where the Starbucks was. Looking around, Michael saw a couple near by him arguing. It sounded they were arguing about food or something, but they seemed to be very much into their argument. Shaking his head and laughing Michael continued to mind his own business, which might be a bit hard sometimes. He was a very observant guy, and when he wasn't doing anything it could be pretty funny sometimes to watch what other people were doing in. As "stinkfish" came on, Michael started singing softly too it, enjoying his drink. Question was, what was he going to do after this? He was never given a time when to be back, and for all he could care, he wasn't going back yet.
