PERSONALITY:
Andy wouldn't exactly describe herself as being overly difficult to manage, however, that doesn't stop others from pinning this title on her. Having grown up being her number one supporter at all times, her self confidence often rubs people the wrong way, and occasionally she can even come off as being snobby and arrogant. This, of course, is not the case because Andy doesn't truly herself as better or worse than anyone else, but on camera she can certainly come off as a bit stuck up. The truth of the matter is that she is just as self conscious as any other person, and tries to overcome this by exuberating an immense amount of happiness and self positivism in every thing that she does. By doing this, she hopes that it will eventually encourage others to feel as confident in themselves as she shows towards herself. In addition to this, Andy can be a bit sassy which no doubt adds to the annoyance some people feel towards her.
It is safe to say that Andy attempts to be the same person both on and off camera. What this means is that the bubbly, excited, and super hyper girl in the vlogs is almost identical to the person she truly is in real life. In fact, Andy is an even more concentrated version of this in person, as she finds it easier to be in front of people rather than in her bedroom and in front of a video camera. She loves to make people laugh, and does so by pulling silly faces or telling dumb jokes in order to lighten the mood. This allows her to be a pretty good mediator, and she considers herself to be an expert tension diffuser... Whatever that means. Obviously, like most things, this has its downside. Andy finds difficulty in actually mellowing out for a bit and taking things seriously, which generally annoys people around her after a while. This is why she turns to online friends rather than people in person, because it is a lot more difficult for them to get burned out towards her.
Besides her never ending quest to make people around her laugh and less stressed out, Andy can be quite the selfish girl. As stated before, she has spent her own life being her own number one supporter and therefore has trouble putting other people ahead of her own goals. This leads to her having severe commitment issues, and being unable to hold onto a significant other or a job, no matter how much she likes them. She's also a bit of a slob, which is why she has been living alone lately. For some reason, it always slips her mind to pick up after herself unless she's been yelled at around 5 times to do it. She has concern for other people's space (including that magical personal bubble) and always jokes about it being because she's Canadian, despite the fact that it literally has nothing to do with the way she acts.
FEARS:
The ocean | Never finding "the one" | Being trampled (in addition to a mild fear of crowds) | Sudden death | Boat rides
HABITS:
Rolls her eyes... A lot | Listens to music in the morning to wake up | Bites her fingernails | Snorts if laughing too hard
HISTORY:
Born to her Caribbean mother and a mixed white and hispanic father from Spain, it's seriously a mystery how Andy ended up being born in Canada. Her mother always told her that it was a miracle; that the stars aligned and brought the pair from opposite ends over the Earth to meet in the world's most beautiful city. Of course, Andy knew it was total horse shit and that her parents were two horny kids barely into adulthood who decided to get married only after Andy was 8 weeks in the making. This didn't mean the marriage wasn't happy though, it simply meant that she had to close her ears for several years and pretend that she totally didn't hear that rated R scene happening just on the other side of her paper thin bedroom walls. To this day, Andy still doesn't know what the biggest miracle is. Being Canadian, or being an only child.
Growing up, Andy was sent to a private school because her parents figured that she'd learn more and grow up to be smarter. Andy liked to say that it didn't work, but she didn't have any public school experience to use as evidence in her argument so she just had to deal with it. As most people know, rich private school kids can be quite vicious. Luckily for Andy, after they grew used to her differences (her strange accent and odd combination of spanish and caribbean words in her daily speaking), they backed off and let her be. Over time, Andy learned to just blend in by masking her accent and speaking mostly English or French, as all the other kids did. So she didn't exactly hate schooling because of "bullying" per se, she just despised how the kids were so bland and boring. She wanted to meet people who thought outside the box, people who were so different from the same crop of kids she saw every single day. Naturally she turned to the internet.
When she turned 15, she received a shiny new laptop for her birthday, and immediately began delving into the world of online communication. She'd encountered the internet before (Jesus Christ, she wasn't a damn caveman), but being under constant supervision made it difficult for her to truly look for the things she wanted to look for. Youtube became a new hobby, and while she previously enjoyed watching her favorite vloggers, she found it more fun to create videos of her own. They were absolute trash at first since she had to film on her laptop webcam, but after practice and the integration of an actual filming camera, Andy's channel began to grow under the pseudonym of "Bat-crazy-Girl". At the same time her youtube channel started taking off, she discovered the chatroom where she met some of her best friends.
As the internet began to consume more and more of her time, she decided that the university life wasn't for her and used her youtube profits to purchase a tiny studio apartment just outside of Toronto for her to live in. However, this wasn't an ideal living situation for her because it was quite lonely and cramped, so when her friends came up with the shared apartment idea, she was all for it.
OTHER:
Honestly, she prefers Boston to Brooklyn
