Biography
Mimi was born in Hong Kong almost three weeks early. Her parents were leaving the next day to go home to Cardiff (from visiting the grandparents) and BOOM a baby. (She was an ugly baby. Like really ugly. Even she agrees; she hates looking at baby pictures. In her words, "I didn't get sexy until I turned eight.'" Eight's her favorite number for this reason only.) She was small, but lucky--there weren't any major complications around her birth. As a matter of fact, she didn't have any major health issues until the flu almost knocked her out when she was six. (This is also when her magic manifested: a nasty sneeze blasted her up in the air several feet. Thankfully she bounced on the way down.)

She breezed through the elementary education her parents put her in (they still try to get her to learn basic muggle things like math but she refuses to do anything past basic algebra). She broke both arms twice each and her left leg once (tree-climbing--her favorite pastime. She loves being up high.) before her Hogwarts letter came. She refused the owl her parents wanted to buy her (she wanted a dragon; anything less was lame), instead opting for a good supply of candy and the promise that they'd never send her a howler. (They sent her a howler in her second year when they found the cat she'd hidden in her closet--it had food and water aplenty, just...no litterbox.) One day she hopes to climb the Whomping Willow just to prove it's possible.

Personality
Hitomi--aka Mimi--is a self-proclaimed hardcore optimist. (Externally anyway. Most of the time. When she can be. Okay, she really isn't, but it's fun to be positive and it makes other people happy so who cares?) She's very impulsive and doesn't have much of a filter--sometimes this leads to insensitive comments. She doesn't mean any offense, though; if she really wanted to hurt someone she'd do it with her fists. Or her wand. Depends on who it is. She likes to form her own opinion of people; making assumptions based on others' opinions strikes her as rather...stupid. She enjoys--genuinely enjoys helping others (but sometimes she thinks people use her and she gets all sad and mopey...)

She's not exactly a great student. She tries to pay attention but honestly there are so many more interesting things than history and spell etymolygy. (When is she ever going to need to know that stuff--oh yeah. Never.) She prefers to spend her classtimes reading comic books and/or making jokes. (Occasionally doodling, too. She only does that on the DL though because her doodles often depict teachers' spells/potions going hilariously wrong. She figures they wouldn't appreciate it much.)
