Paint the picture of the character using a combination of direct and indirect characterization. Do not tell us their name or relationship to you. We should be able to tell by your descriptions.
Ex: Her hair was always long and perfectly manicured. Her dark brown eyes always spoke before her mouth. I remember when I got a bad grade in math. I cried the entire way home from school, but when I walked in the door, not a single word was spoken. She placed a homemade cookie in front of me and a glass of milk and sat down for our usual talk.

The short blonde hair is always pulled back into a ponytail. A very tough cookie. Always in sweats, just like me. Listens to everything I say. When I have a problem, she is the first to step up and talk about who's butt she may have to kick. She's younger and short than me by a little bit, yet I still look up to her. The first person to be there for me, the first to immediately respond. There's a side of her only I know.
B. Geiss 5/6 period
I thought to myself, how did he find out that i had gone on a ski trip that past weekend? He seemed very interested on how it had gone and would not cease to suggest that we go sometime. I snowboarding and by the looks of it, we would become good friends. He was about my height at the time, surpassed me now... his hair was curly and he liked to talk a lot. Over time we found that we had a lot in common. He taught me a lot about life over the years and i don't know if i'd be the same person today had he never approached me to ask about the ski trip.
The iconic golden yellow hat with the red ribbon around it is always first to notice. Next would be the strait, flat hair that followed suit. A scar hanging beneath his left eye showed that this man meant business. When he fought, his cunning techniques and never-ending barrage of fists seemed to do the trick. He never backed down from a fight, whether it was for his friends or for fun. When he made his mind set on a goal, he never allows himself to waver from achieving it. His young age and image allows him to seem somewhat naive, and in many ways he is. He isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but he knows how to handle himself and others. His crew are the most important thing to him, and he guides them with a superior purpose that everyone feels when he makes decisions. The best part about him is, that he doesn't even theoretically exist.
Her hair was long and well taken care of. Her eyes were such a dark brown that they were almost black. A very hard worker and caring she is. Listens to everything I have to say, even if she disagrees. She is younger than me, but only by fourteen months. I remember always doing everything together, we still do. I know everything about her and she knows everything about me. Sometimes she is annoying and angers me, but I get over it. She will always have huge part in my life and in my heart.
~Becca Gardella 5/6 Period
She has a heart of pure gold. The beauty of a princess. The intelligence of Einstein. She's the ideal role model. Her hair hangs down well past her shoulders, always silky and straight. Her hair has a nature brown of many shades. Her smile will light up a whole room and her laugh will change the world. Her eyes look as if they are made from a blue crystal lake on a cold winter day. She brightens every conversation with her humorous sarcasm. On a bad day she is always by my side and in the end she's the one person that means the world to me. With the love she gives off she deserves the world and nothing less. Nothing can compare to the friendship she has blessed me with.
Ally Modie 3rd period
We both look the same, so I've been told. Very stubborn and an awful attitude; always fighting and bickering. As the years have gone by we have become a lot closer. He knows everything about me that even my parents would never know. He has brown hair and is almost as tall as me. I consider myself a role model to him and I hope to never disappoint him. Even though we have had our difference we still find a way to come back even stronger than before. Without him I don't know if I would be the same person that I am today.
Adam Nickles 5/6 period
Every time I look at her I think to myself, "how did I get so lucky?" Her beautiful brown hair falls perfectly every time and I can't help but get lost in her hazel eyes. She rolls her eyes as I compliment her, not believing a word I say. Although she's the most stubborn person I've ever met, she's my best friend and I can't help but love her. She drives me insane sometimes, but I wouldn't change a thing about her.
I've been told that we look alike. Her hair is a beautiful rusty red color that fits her well. Always fixed to perfection. She is musically talented. Passive aggressive she is, and gets what she wants. Younger then me but I still look up to her. Brains of a professor and passionate about her work.
His black and grey hair is always a little messed up. He covers it up by wearing a baseball hat all of the time. Even though he is using an oxygen tank because he is missing half of a lung, he gets all of the house work done by himself. He is able to take care of his wife and his grandson along with himself. He takes a lot of time out of his day to sit down and pray. He is tall, funny, and caring. All of his life lessons that he tells me will apply to me later in life and he tells me I will know when they happen. He always puts others' well-being before his own.
Bloxsom, N. 5/6th period.
The little boy with blonde, curly, and crazy hair. He wears my old clothes, things that I have not worn in many years. His head just comes up to my shoulder. It is amazing to watch him get older. He has started to put effort into school. He puts work into the things he does. He used to be lazy, now he can think for himself and put try. Whether it be in mathematics, language arts, science, history, soccer, or Taekwondo he tries hard to do well. Beyond all other things, he loves his video games. They seem to be ingrained into his very brain. We call him DS Boy. It's wonderful to watch him grow up and become his own individual.
Colton K. 1
He barely fit through the door. He was tall as a tree and filled out like brick. His hair is dark brown with an aging goatee. His fingers and hands beat up from his profession. Obviously aging a lot older then myself. We share many laughs out in public doing things we shouldn't but thats what makes me admire him.
She has short brown hair & green eyes.
She is about two inches taller than I.
She is the first person I see when I walk in the door,
And she is someone who you cannot ignore.
I love her to death and will always do.
She is always the first person that I turn to.
She gives me helpful advice when I need it most,
And she makes the most generous host.
She is seen in the kitchen because she likes to cook,
And when she's not, she is writing a book.
She gave up her life so she could raise me best,
And this is something I will never regret.
I can't help but smile when I see her face,
Knowing I am someone she will never replace.
We talk and we laugh and we spend time together,
Mostly on days when there is crappy weather.
We watch the same movies over and over again.
This is because, each time, a new story begins.
We have our favorite tv shows that we watch every night,
Keeping the best ones only in sight.
We like to bake cookies and delicious treats;
Anything from salty to very sweet.
She likes to talk and lecture me,
Teaching me things of the highest degree.
She shows me life lessons and wrong from right,
Making me a better person, to my very own delight.
We have a bond that no one else shares,
Because we make the world's best mother-daughter pair.
Muha, J 5-6th period
She's not your stereotypical blond. Well most of the time I tend to believe she is. When she left home she didn't know what she was getting herself into, with having to rely on herself. Not being able to come home if needed. I always have respected her for that. She is strong minded and has achieved a lot. When she sets a goal she will do anything to achieve it. She's always there for you, unless she doesn't like you. Don't make her mad and she'll always love you.
Pelka, E. 1st period
she's the first thing that's on my mind when I wake up, she has a face I could never get tired of seeing. her voice is the sweetest thing I have ever heard and she's the only one I will ever want. She is on my mind all the time. when ever we are with eacheacher I fall in love with her crazy self all over again. I'll never get tired of her blonde hair, bright blue eyes, or beautiful smile.
-Dominic Ferretti
One of the most distinguished man,who rides day to day on horseback. Truth, honor, and generous ness the personialty one would be. Also has noblility within the blood to serve. Practicing horse jousting to prepare for conflict from other nation.And he will always kill a man.
Dhanraj J. 3rd period
His smile is heart warming and when I see pictures of him I think of home. He is funny but knows when to be serious. Somehow he always knew what I was up to and was always one step ahead of me. When I was in trouble he would always come running and he will always be missed by everyone that he spoke to.
A storc 5/6
The roots of her hair are a flawless natural blonde color. Halfway down, the blonde fades into a dyed chestnut brown color. She's tall with bright blue eyes. Curious and caring, she always puts others before herself. She laughs at the little things. It's rare to see her without a smile on her face. She says what she feels and is unafraid to be who she really is. She's funny, goofy, and treats every moment like a gift. There is never a dull moment when we are together. She's a true beauty, inside and out and inspires me to be a better person. The bond we share is not quite like a sisters' but still strong like family. Being just two months older than me, we've had a lot in common throughout our whole lives. She is not only family, but one of the best friends I've ever had.
Corrine Luzier
5/6th period
Her wavy blonde hair is always down. She never puts it up in a pony tail. Every time I see her, I smile. I've known her for so long, and I know the her nobody else knows. I thank her every day for being there for me. She is my other half. I think that's her job though, right, to be there for me all the time. Even if she doesn't live with me, she might as well be my sister. She is kind, considerate, and very funny. I think that I couldn't find anyone else that could possibly be more important to me. We are both too obsessed with Disney and we couldn't possibly go a day without singing or texting lyrics back and forth. I thank God everyday for putting her in my life. She truly is my unbiological sister.
Standing at a towering 5'10" and weighing in at a solid 175, comes a U.S. National Gaurd member. Although his blue eyes show him as a gentle humna, he can crack a skull if needed. He has always been someone that I looked up to and is an inspiration to myself. Being raised by the same mother, he is a lot like me in the sense that he has the same values as I do. With dark hair and a toned body, he is all man.
Renfro, B. 1st period
His eyes were the first thing that caught mine. His beautiful light blue-green eyes were the first to actually look at me and see me for something so much greater than I really am. His dark curly hair has had its stages but it's always been perfect to me. His hands, rough with calluses are strong and working hands. He loves to eat and his favorite things in the world are cars. His nose has that little scar from his dog at his dad's house. He likes to talk and be silly all of the time. He works hard but has his lazy moments. He has one of the biggest hearts in the whole wide world and he makes me so happy.
Husak, Lina 5/6 period
I met her in studyhall my Junior year. We had misunderstood each other and went separate ways. Later that year, we reconnected, this time, stronger than ever before. Seven months she had waited, and then she was going this time. I went and took very risky and great measures to make sure I got her. I wouldn't lose her again. Needless to say I was successful or this blog wouldn't exist today. Since then, I haven't regretted any of it. As the months and months go on, there's not a day that goes by where I don't want to hear her beautiful voice and all her phrases she says. Even if we get annoyed or mad at one another, at the end of the day, we know what's really important no matter what. Each and everyday I grow closer to her, knowing more and more. I learn which buttons to push, and which ones to put a lock on. Being Italian and Hispanic, her shiny dark hair, although sometimes is a little crazy. Well, a lot of crazy, is complimented by her amazing personality, those beautiful green eyes. Always caring and forever loving, there's not one thing I could, or want to change about her.
The smell of the house when i walk in
The scent and feeling of her presences
the smell of roasted chicken in the oven
Her voice filled the house with laughter and happiness
It gave me a safe and welcome feeling
the never ending caring
being bombarded with complements
the true person in my world
She has got long blonde hair and she is what every guy looks for in a girl. Her hazel eyes are Hell on a man and will make him melt like butter. Her sweet and loving personality envelopes you and once you are in, you cannot get out. She is a touchy-feely person and literally envelopes you in herself. A truly loving and caring girl who also has a bit of a mean streak in her.
He is a very intimidating man, stern but caring. All he wants is the best for me but shows it in a way different from anyone else. One quick glance and I feel as if I disappoint. He has worked hard for everything he has achieved and continues to do everything he can to support for his family. He has always been there for me and I would not trade him for anything. He has given me all his knowledge and I would not be who I am without him.
Steven Ficyk 5/6
He would be considered a hardworking and dedicated man by most standards. Always ready to get the task done. He is older than me by a little over twenty years. He is taller than me by a small margin, but a lot wiser. Someone that you can come to terms with and say "I can rely on him". He's a very selfless person at any given moment in time. He is someone that I can say I am glad that we are related. He is someone that is likable by many due to his selfless lifestyle. He is someone that many would consider a great opportunity to meet.
Mike Glencer 5/6 period
It is like looking in a mirror. Same hair, same hazel eyes. There are only a couple of differences like she is shorter then I am and has two freckles on her nose. We are complete opposites. She is the laid back one while I am the feisty one. She is not athletic and clumsy. She does not care what people think of her. She does not know how to be sarcastic or mean. We may look alike and have the same genes but we are nothing alike. We do have a connection that no one can break though. We have our own jokes and our own hand shake. We are best friends and I do not know what I would do without her.
-Alexa Shaneyfelt 3rd period
Her naturally wavy and short brown hair is masked by long, lucious locks that are dyed to perfectly match the original. Her skin is artifically colored by the bulbs of tanning booths and her nails are always concealed underneath acrylics of either plain polish or intricate design. Her room is directly next to mine with clothes scattered around the floor and shoes in every corner, all centered around an unmade bed. Even though she's younger than me, her height surpasses mine by a couple of inches. Her mouth spews the words that are on her mind without a second thought and her obnoxious laugh can be heard miles away. She has been by my side since the day she was born and sticks up for me whenever need be. I cannot imagine my life without her.
when i first laid eyes on her, her gorgeous eyes immediately caught mine, her smile makes your heart melt. i love everything about her. shes very sweet and i just love being around her. i'm honestly so glad i got to meet her! i don't know where i would be without her in my life.
Kilgore, J 3rd Period
He is the funniest guy I have ever know... His smile can light up an entire room and he just shines. He is the most positive, inspiring, and encouraging person i have ever known. His positivity inspires me everyday. He's always making jokes. we can just be walking down the hallways, and he could have me dying of laughter. He truly inspires me everyday. I've known him for a while now, and I cant even to imagine my life without him. He inspires me to be a better person. His personality just shines. He shines so much that i don't ever really focus on his brown eyes and brown hair. The best memories I have are with him. I think to myself how lucky I am to have a person like this in my life everyday.
His black hair, that always seems to be changing, and his honest, chocolate eyes. They can tell when I'm stressed, when I'm sad, any emotion I could possibly feel. I txt him and he can instantly tell that I'm not feeling like my normal self. Without even asking or telling me, he's there. Hes hugging me or sitting me down to listen to what I have to say. He can understand me on levels that no one else can. He's one of the most important things in my life.
The smell of her Chanel perfume comes to mind. Her light brown hair and hazel eyes always there to wake me up in the morning. The one at every single swim meet, softball game, etc. there to cheer me on and support me. She is very caring and would give up the world to make me happy. She is the type of person to stop everything she is doing to run to me to help. She is my rock.
N.Pozna 5/6
HIs head is a mass of frizzy, curly, light brown hair. He wears glasses on his slightly pudgy face, which matches his tall, bulky, build. Despite his size, he's a man of knowledge and mind power but he also knows when to have fun. His sense of humor is much like mine, which we have both used easily, for a long, long time. He is very smart, my age. We've known each other since we both were six, and though we are separated by hundreds of miles, we remain connected.
Paul Smith
3rd Period
Small, thin, ugly, everything I’m not. Whenever I mess around with him I usually hurt him. He is younger than me and because of that less respectful to my relatives. He gets everything he wants just because he wants it even though he talks back. Whenever he is hurt it is always my fault, even when I am not in the room. Even though he is a pain in my side, a very annoying person, sometimes he surprises me and in the end he doesn’t seem all that bad.
He is tall and strong, with sawdust in his short brown hair after a long day on the job. Even though he is tired, he always makes time to sit down and have our little chats. He’s the funniest, most encouraging person I have ever met. If I make a mistake or I’m too afraid to try something new, he stands next to me and supports me until I’m strong enough to conquer anything. He inspires me to be a better person and has always taught me that if you want a good life, you have to work hard and never give up. Even though there is quiet some distance between us, he will never stop being my inspiration. 1,361 miles away, he still pushes me to be the best I can be, and I can only think to myself how lucky I am to have someone like him in my life.
-Winston S 5/6*
He has thick black hair that can almost mimic the waves of an ocean. His doe-eyes are the perfect mixture of browns and greens. His smile beams like a brand new car's headlights. His cheeks are as plump as a toddler's. His voice resembles one of an angel, he strums the guitar so technically and I wonder how he got so good at it. Creativity spews out from him naturally, his wit and intelligence are sharp as knives. His personality can light up any room better than any lamp. I often wonder if he's even real. - Jenny Wiley 3rd Period.
She has brown hair but you wouldn't always know it.Her eyes are piercing green. She might now always look like the stereotypical girl but she always has a reason for her elaborate designs. Her music will never die she will always have her monsters. She is no usual girl but she is special to me. she is special to a lot of people. No one will see what she truly is because she always has her poker face on.
Her warming voice always sounding like she had something to do but wanted to know what was wrong with me first. Her eyes caring and loving always there no matter what for me. Her touch was a touch that no one else could replace, for it was a touch of care and love. Coming home crying and not wanting to talk about it. She had her ways of getting out. Always very supportive of all the actions I took and was understanding if I had made a bad action. She understands I am a girl, and that's what girls do. Always telling me I cant keep you from doing things in life, but when you do them to think of her and how she would feel. Always putting on the guilt trip if I did something I was not supposed to do. But no matter what I will always admire her wits, beauty and strength for no one could or match the strength she has.
Novemeber 16, 2014 at 10:49 PM
He has dark Brown hair. But with sharp blue as an ocean eyes. He stands about six foot two. But I like to think that I'm taller. He's as big as a bear, but it makes him who he is. Very careless towards others thoughts of him. Some say he's intimidating, I say he's a teddy bear. He's always there when you need, but he's always there to show you wrong from right. He's family oriented. Also a role model to me. He's "the man".
I feel as if when I met him we had alot of personality traits. similar. Dark black hair roughly 6 feet tall but I would still take him in a. scuffle any day. He is a simplistic person with a laid back attitude and really ever fails to anger someone greatly. Some people may have bad things to say about him but I don't have one complaint. As this last year unfolds I'm hopeful I won't lose his presence in the. future. He is a good friend, a sidekick in crime.
He has short brown hair and brown eyes. His heart is made of gold and he is putting in the effort every chance he gets. He may not be the tallest guy around but it does not effect how he throws the football. He makes his presence known wherever he is. He may come of as a bit arrogant, but that is just because of how passionate he is for the sport, and how dedicated he is at improving as a player. He is envied by many, and hated by some. He sits backup for now, but one day, Cleveland will be calling his name, and he will be doing the money hands for all to see.
She always seems to know how to fix any problem I put myself into. Throughout my whole life, she has pushed me and made me who I am today. Her curly hair and distinct voice always make her stand out in a crowd, even when she doesn't want to. Her care will never be topped and I'm so happy she is in my life, even though I unfortunately don't show it the entire time.
Her hair is long, golden, and curly. Her old tshirt is dirty with chocolate and flour. Laughing, she looks down and sees the mess on her shirt. "I went to the store like this". We laugh and put the frosting on the cake, then she adds in that I have to do the dishes.
Megan Zajkowski
He is old and worn, surrounded by gold who just loves to lie around. He wanders aimlessly around my house with a dopey smile on his face. He may dirty the walls but my family still loves him. He likes to play in the snow when we really don’t want him to. Doesn’t like baths and sometimes is a little lazy, but somehow he finds a way to get the energy to run. Enjoys my parents’ presence and always sleeps by their side, knowing he is safe. Sometimes very annoying because he won’t let you leave the house, but we understand that he doesn’t want us to go. Drooling and smiling at the same time, he will always love our family even when he dies.
I don't think that his hair has ever been nicely combed. He's constantly running his fingers through it while talking on the phone to his employees or while reading through the bills. To strangers, he looks intimidating and always serious, but if you look closely enough, the fine lines in the corners of his eyes and on the sides of his mouth prove otherwise.
pretty girls dont think they are pretty. long dark hair blowing in the wind. anything she does is somehow flawless. others have nothing on her. alike in so many ways. sharing interests and enjoying time together. moments you wouldnt trade for the world you cant change perfection
He stands about three feet tall. Hardly ever without a train in his hand. His laugh is contagious as he throws his head back and shows his wide gapped teeth. I remember not being able to wait to meet him and now I cannot wait to watch him grow. We already kick the soccer ball around and I have started to teach him to kick a football. He is going to be my best buddy forever.
Represents the ideal of a medieval Christian man-at-arms. He has participated in no less than fifteen of the great crusades of his era. Brave, experienced, and prudent, the narrator greatly admires him. Truth, Honor, Generousness and courtesy. Distinguished man.
J.Hartory 1 period
Ive been told by many that me and him were not similar in looks. I am tall with good size while he is shorter and a little smaller. Smaller in size but larger in knowledge he is I look up to him tremendously. Always had an issue with fighting and not being able to put our differences aside, but now those differences have bonded us over the years. As each year goes by I watch and learn as much as I can from him.
