Personality:
(You might recognize this as Caleb's app for Matt, but it was MINE first...*glares at Caleb*)
Kate is your average punk rocker. She likes loud music and despises authority. Rumors spread she even has a corn snake hidden in her dorm. She uses so much slang in her sentences that most people have given up trying to understand her. She recently got one an iPod and listens to it frequently, especially during classes. Her favorite bands are the Clash, Fall Out Boy, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Three Days Grace, The Cure, and this radical new band called Verona. She can't stand soft music unless the words are dark.
That's just the surface. On a personal level, Kate's rude and unforgiving. She's been known to be blunt and impatient. She firmly believes in her rights as a human being and never lets anyone take that away from her. Trying to reason with her is like trying to teach Vector Calculus to kindergarteners. She screams a lot. This has been directly linked to her immense fear of not being heard. One of Kate's deepest fears is not making an impact. She also is terribly afraid of falling.
When Katharine's scared, she's a whole different person. She gets a bit quieter, though she's been known to shriek when afraid. She can get incredibly tender when someone hits a raw nerve. The songs Hurt by Christina Aguleria and Face Down by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus can reduce her to a puddle. The whole "Switchblades & Spray Paint" look fades when someone says something that actually penetrates Kate's thick skull. With a job at Obsessions, Kate's prone to one-nighters, but when in a real relationship, Kate's not the same person people see at school. She is deeply afraid of losing people she cares about which is why she dislikes so many people.
During school hours, Katharine is known to wander into town and get a little tipsy. Her motto is "You never know when you could die, so at least live in the fast lane." Often when she gets drunk, she ends up spray painting obscene messages on water fountains in the public park. She has been known to get high sometimes, but it's all in good fun. When drunk, Kate is often a much nicer person than she is when she's sober.

Family & Personal History:
Joyce Kinnian was a "Fuck the World" rebel in High School; Kyle Russoe was a First Honors jock. It was Homecoming of their Senior year. Joyce had decided to go all out and really leave an imprint on Leitchfield High. She was going to spray-paint "Fuck the Falcons" in big black and red letters on the side of the rec building after the game. The Elizabethtown Falcons won, and Kyle was very bummed out. He wandered off the field unnoticed and walked to the rec center to have a smoke. Meanwhile Joyce was beginning to start her art. By the time, Kyle got there she had already gotten "Fuck the Falc-" on the side of the rec center. He just kind of stared at it for about fifteen minutes as Joyce stood there petrified. She tried to get her feet to run, but couldn't. Finally, a flipped out Kyle burst out laughing, and Joyce decided it was safe to stay. He even decided to help her out on the little project. She thanked him for all his help and started to get her things and leave, but that is not how that night was to end.
Three weeks later, Joyce found out she was pregnant. She dropped out of school and tried to hide it from Kyle. She was quite successful because it was Mid-March when Kyle found out why she had dropped out. The moment Kyle found out he was a father, he immediately started to support Joyce. She told him that she didn't want him to have to give up his whole life just for her. Joyce actually didn't accept any help from Kyle until he promised he wouldn't let her get in the way of his life. Kyle continued to date other girls, but spent almost every day after school with Joyce. Kyle still graduated with first honors. He was accepted to a nice school in California where his dad lived, but didn't tell Joyce. Between all of this, he had actually fallen for the stubborn independent rebel. He never expected her to actually like him back, because of his "daddy's money" and his "fancy house." In August, just before he was to leave to California, Joyce had the baby. It was a girl that they had previously agreed to name Katharine.
Joyce was very tired after the delivery, so the doctor's made Kyle leave the room. After what seemed to be an eternity, a doctor came out and told Kyle that Joyce wanted to talk to him now. She thanked him for absolutely everything he had done for her, and Kyle just modestly told her that it was worth it. After about five minutes of silence, Joyce broke it by asking what did they do now? Kyle blurted out about California, and Joyce tried to stifle her pain. He asked her to come with him, and she agreed to. So Kyle, Joyce, and their newborn daughter, Katharine Rose moved to California. Kyle had gotten a nice apartment right of campus for Joyce and Kate to live in while he took classes and worked night shifts at various workplaces. The first few years were hard, but they made it through. When Kate was four, they had another daughter named, Benice Holly. Finally after Kyle made it through law school, he had it set. At this point Joyce and Kyle agreed that it would be best to go their seperate ways now, but neither of them really wanted to. Kyle agreed to let her keep the apartment and he would pay the bills for her, since he almost immediately got a comfy job at as an assistant at a big firm, thanks to his father.
They were only seperated for five months before Joyce and Kyle "accidentally" found each other again at Kyle's office. The two were married one year later. By this point, Kate was eight, and Bennie was four. They moved into a nice upper-class mansion in Carmel Hills. Kate grew up with the rich life. All through out middle school, she was with the popular clique. Up until halway through her freshman year, Kate could have anything she wanted. Little did she know things were falling apart at home. As Kyle climbed higher on the job ladder, he spent less and less time at home. This worried Joyce he, a man of his age and status especially, might leave her for his secretary. She started to be incredibley over-protective of Kyle, and this did not sit well with him at all. She started to nag Kyle about everything, from his work hours to his smoking. Finally two weeks before Kate's freshman year started, Kyle found out he had lung cancer.
Kyle did all he possibly could to hide this from Joyce, just so she couldn't be right about something. This is how strained the marriage had gotten, that Kyle was hiding something that would cost him his life from his wife so she wouldn't be able to say "I told you so." Finally the day before Christmas Eve, Kyle collapsed from lack of treatment. Joyce didn't give the reaction Kyle had expected from her. She was quite scared and very kind to Kyle, as was the rest of the family. All four spent Christmas Day in the hospital. It was the last happy day they would see all together. Because Kyle's condition had grown so severe due to almost six months of lack of lifestyle changes, his health declined so rapidly, the doctor's doubted he'd make it to May. Even after the collapse, Kyle really didn't change anything he did. This was a hard time for Katharine. She began to become a bit touchy around other students and started to be much more bitchy towards her friends. This is when she slowly started to fade from the popular crowd.
Kyle continued to go to work, and at the end of April, his firm went completely bankrupt due to big-time fraud. Things couldn't be going any worse. With the increasing doctor bills, the family had to sell the mansion and move into the suburbs. Joyce had to find work now, which was hard being a high school drop-out. No big business would even touch Kyle. When things couldn't get any worse, Bennie had heart failure. Bennie had been complaining of chest pains for many weeks, but the family really couldn't afford to take her to a doctor to check it out. Bennie needed a transplant, and with Kyle's cancer, there was no way in hell they could afford it. Kyle decided to stop going to chemotherapy and Kate would have to get a job as a waitress. They moved straight into an apartment. Bennie did get her transplant on June 4th, and miraculously lived. Five weeks later, Kyle died.
After Kyle died, Katharine went into a total recluse. For the first semester of her sophomore year she didn't talk to anybody. The financial status was at an all time low, now without Kyle. Kate had remembered a friend from last year mentioning her older sister making some extra money as a stripper at Obsessions. She knew it was bad, but her family really needed the money. Katharine got the job and started just as her second semester of sophomore year began.
After working at Obsessions for two months, she met a Senior named Chad. He took a specific liking to Kate, and they really ended up hooking up. Chad really helped Kate crack back out of her withdrawl. She started becoming more outgoing, but after a month, the relationship went sour. Chad had a friend who was a very heavy drug abuser. Kate had heard Chad had started to use them himself, and it apparently took a very negative turn on him. He became demanding and violent, especially around Katharine. He started to hit her some days. She told herself it was just the drugs, but a few weeks later, she found out Chad had stopped using the drugs. She tried to confront him about it, but Chad beat her about an inch of her life. She didn't show up to school that week. If anyone asks, what happened to her. She answers that she tripped and broke her ar,. Even after that beating, she continued to stay with Chad even though he knocked the snot out of her several times. Finally her sophomore year ended and Chad moved away. After he left, she started being very bitter, and that's when the punk thing reallly started to take hold.
