--- DREAMER Dreams of the future. Everybody has those. How many times didn't we sit dreaming of what will happen in the future, basically projecting our wishes to our future selves? Marilyn is the kind of person that basically lives in her own little world. Her dreams and ambitions are everything to her. She is determined to pursue her dreams and make her wishes come true by working hard to achieve that. She often zones out day dreaming and she can sit for hours just imagining how her future life is going to be, or what is going to happen in case her dreams and ambitions come true. Having everything she ever wanted she was raised to believe that everything she wishes for will happen. That doesn't mean that she'll settle for just dreaming about it though. She is prepared to work hard and do everything it takes.
--- ARTISTIC Ever since she was a little girl, Marilyn got involved with the performing arts... Because of her mother profession, she grew up in theaters, because of ballet performance her mother had occasionally, and she grew to love it. Adore it even. She started since a young age with dance, continued with music, with studies in classical piano and opera, and then drama lessons. She loves being on stage and she knows how to put that talent in good use. She always got involved with school productions and it wasn't long before she realized that this was her true calling. The girl can put on a show from scratch and you will always find her either singing or humming, playing the piano, dancing, or learning lines.
--- HEADSTRONG/STUBBORN Despite being fairly polite most of the time, Marilyn is one of the most headstrong and stubborn people you will ever meet. She stays strong at her opinions and won't change her mind even if the world comes tumbling down (with really few exceptions over the years). She doesn't stop until she gets what or who she wants no matter what the consequences are, which puts her in trouble some times. And even if she gets proven wrong, she will still insist that her opinion was the correct one. It's something she really has to work on though since that's not too good. She knows that she has to start accepting some things, start listening to other opinions and actually accepting them.
LIKES: acting, music, dance, fashion, chocolate, shoes, books, magazines, shopping, traveling, jewelries, theater, Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Natalie Wood, musicals, flirting
DISLIKES:People who betrayed her, Losers, Snakes, People that don't keep their promises, Fights, Spiders, Pessimistic people, People who think they know it all, Being rejected.
Marilyn's parents met in France. Her father was sent there by his parents to study in order to take over the family business, before joining the Marine Corps, since he was coming from a wealthy and respectful American/Irish family. One night, when he went to watch a ballet performance a young and beautiful ballerina caught his eye and he immediately fell in love with her. He went at the theater every night, waiting for her, just to see her, when he finally worked up the courage to go talk to her. The two of them somehow fell in love with each other and became inseparable.
Claire and Craig got engaged and she followed him back to USA, when he became a marine. Claire had to leave her family behind by moving away. She also had to abandon her dreams of becoming a big star in the ballet world, when she got pregnant with their first child, Philippe.The couple had to travel around a lot, because of Craig but after he quit the corps they settled back in New York where Craig was from. Several years later, after they got married and Philippe was born, Marilyn's dad took over his father's company, with his wife by his side, always being there supporting him. The couple had their second child, Marilyn, two years after they got the company and when Phillipe was 5. Even if their parents wanted to have 3 children and tried repeatedly for it, they were left only with Marilyn and Philippe.
Being the only daughter of her parents, Marilyn always got what she wanted, because her parents just loved, and still love, to spoil their "princess" as they called her when she was little. That's why she can be a bit stubborn sometimes. Growing up in a luxurious house at the Upper East Side of New York, Marilyn can be considered a true Park Avenue princess, even if she doesn't act like it some times.
Her mother adores her daughter, but even all this happiness couldn't fill the empty spot that her personal dreams and ambitions left when she abandoned them. Over the years she got depressed and that lead her to seek for love and approval in the arms of other men, and not in the father of her children. Of course her father was doing the same for years, usually sleeping with his secretaries. There was a rough period in their relationship when they almost got a divorce but after months of therapy and visits to a wedding consultant they managed to stay together and of course avoid the scandal their divorce would bring.
Claire often talked to her daughter about her marital problems, and Marilyn knew about several of her mother's "relationships", though she never said anything about it. Of course that was too much information for Marilyn to know, but she understood that Claire couldn't really trust anyone but her daughter. Marilyn started spending less and less time at home after the crisis in her parents marriage. That's when she started working on her career, and when the college in another town opportunity appeared she immediately took it because not only would it help the career she wanted but also it would help her get away.
Natalya was in her bed, sleep mask on her face, her breathing even in her half sleeping state. She was half awake but she was in the zone between sleeping and waking up, where you debate on whether you should just resume your sleep and go back to the dream you were having, or open your eyes and wake up, letting the sleep and the dream become a memory. If you managed to remember it that is. A small sigh left Nat's lips, before she put her hand on her forehead, and then slowly removed the mask, the material that was shielding her eyes from the light. She could feel her head aching. Natalya woke up a bit more and she squinted in the darkness of the room, trying to work out what time it was and also trying to regain composure and remember the events of the previous night. She rested her head back on the pillow, trying to work out whether she should get up and leave, or try and gain another couple hours sleep. It was a Saturday after all so she saw no reason in having to wake up early, or do anything in particular other than enjoy her free day.
Deciding in favor of the first option she carefully sat up and pushed the covers off her petite body, hang her legs on the side of the bed and pushed herself up. She got off the bed and walked barefoot and clattered in only a tiny sleep shirt towards the window. She pulled the curtains that were blocking the sun, open and she squirmed at the sudden contact of her eyes and light. Tally headed to the bathroom and after taking a quick shower to wake her up, she did her usual morning ritual consisting of brushing her teeth, combing her hair, washing her face. When she was done she moved back to her room, and after getting dressed, she roamed around the room picking her stuff up and throwing them in her purse. When she was set, she left the room and headed outside, getting into her car and driving at the nearest Starbucks to get her daily caffeine dose in order to wake up.
After getting her coffee, she got back into her car heading to her house. Natlya parked outside the house. She got out locked the car and after climbing the few front steps that separated her from the front door, she unlocked and got in, only to be greeted with the smell of freshly cleaned house and breakfast... MOTHER! I'm home!
She debated on whether she should go to the beach or not. The weather was quite hot and staying inside on a Saturday morning was definitely NOT an option for her. Tally got undressed and put on her bikini and made her hair up on a loose ponytail before she threw on an oversize loose shirt to cover herself up. She put on her flip flops and after retrieving her beach bag from her closet, she stuffed it with her towel, tan oil, a couple of magazines and her iPod, grabbed her Ray Ban aviators putting them on her eyes, to protect them from the strong sun and left the house again, heading to the beach. When she finally got there after a short walk, since the house was near, she walked around and finally spotted the chaises. Natalya sighed before she put her towel on the chair and laid on it, applying the tan oil on her body, before she turned around so she was laying on her stomach. Natalya reached behind her and unclasped her bikini's bra, so there wouldn't be any blank spots on her back when it tanned. She put her ipod's headphones in her ears, pressed play and closed her eyes as the music flowed through her ears. She decided to tan for now before getting into the water. She was fully prepared after all. She had her tan lotion, ipod, magazines, sunglasses... Everything she needed to pass her time.[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
