Sara Isabell Tinker
* tell us a little about yourself.-giggles- Just a little? Okie dokies, I'll keep this as short as I possibly can then. My name's Sara Isabell Tinker. Normally, I'm known as Bell. Or Tinkerbell because "it rolls of the tongue" or so people say, but I prefer Bell. Not many people call me Sara unless it's professional stuff or I'm just extremely comfortable with them, but I guess it'd be okay for you to call me Sara too. Whatever works for you. As of November 8th, I will be twenty four. Yeah, I know, I don't look it, but this is what happens when your family line has gifted you with good genes. I'm a college junior, studying pre-law. I know what you're thinking. "This airhead is fooling herself, she's never going to make it" but so far, I'm surviving, and if I put my mind to it, I can do it. And anyway, a couple of years back, these two guys opened up a law firm over here at Walten, so I decided to apply for the secretary job, just to get around the ropes and stuff. And I'm learning an awful lot, so that's good. Now, I'm originally from Wisconsin, or that's what my adoptive parents told me. They found me when they heard a child's laughter. Well, I mean, I moved from foster care to foster care and eventually ended up in Walten, and that's where they found me, if that makes any sense at all. Oh, and apparently, I look like this famous celebrity... umm.... what's her name again? It's this country singer who likes to write her own songs and everything. Oh! I remember! Taylor Swift! Yeah, that's it. I have been approached by so many little fan girls asking for my signature, it's not even funny. I hate to disappoint, but I wasn't about to lie to them. Oh my gosh, I said I'd keep this short, didn't I? I'm sorry, carry on to your next question.
* what are some of your positive traits?Oh, well, this should be easy enough. I am not afraid to admit that I like learning. Learning is fun! I mean, the brain is there for you to just absorb information, and it's not like learning is harmful. So yeah, I think law is good for me. There's tons of stuff for me to learn about. And I get to argue and go "I object!" -giggles- Sorry, anyway, I'm a very happy person, generally, so that's definitely positive. I happen to like happiness. The world needs a little more of that. I mean, half of the population of the world spend their life moping around about how their life sucked. Well then, do something about it! Make it un-suck! And that leads me to my next trait, which is helpful. I love it. I love to lend a helping hand where needed. I don't mind listening to people's rant or cry on my shoulder or complain, and if or when they decide to do something, I'm always there. I also like fixing things. I hate it when people fight or cause unnecessary arguments. I try my best to be the mediator or whatever it is that word is, and I try to calm both parties down and get them to talk it out instead of threatening each other all the time. I'm funny, apparently, but I guess that's part of my playful nature. I'm awfully childish, and I see that as a positive thing because well, like I said before, the world needs a little more happiness, and what's makes a person more happy than acting like a child every once in a while? I'm a very friendly and accepting person, and always have a smile on my face. Did you know, it's a proven fact that laughter and smiling makes a person healthier? It's true, I promise. Um... I think that's more than three positive traits, and I can totally go for more, but I think I'll stop boring you to sleep -smiles-
* what are some things that you can improve on?Oh well everybody always needs to improve on something, and there's definitely tons that I need to work on. For example, I can come on too strong sometimes. Like when I'm excited about learning, I can get too nosy. Sometimes I can be too cheerful for a person's liking. Sometimes I'm too "flirty" for my own good, says my girl friends. I just think they're jealous I hang around with more with my guy friends than I do with them, but what can I say? Talking to the male species is like breathing for me. It's not my fault they're shy, and stuff. Oh, and I can be a bit ill-tempered. "How does that work when you try to stop fights?" You may ask. Honestly, I'm not quite sure. I guess it just works with my childish acts, you know? I throw temper tantrums when I'm upset- which is rare- but I do get a bit impatient sometimes, and then I spew off some words that I may or may not regret. I'm not usually ill-tempered, but when I am, it's like some other Sara has taken over. Usually, I only feel one emotion, never more than one. If I'm angry, I'm angry and wouldn't usually feel compassion or regret. If I'm upset over something stupid, I wouldn't feel silly or anything, just upset. It's weird, I know, but that's how I work! I can also be a bit vindictive and sarcastic when I want to be. Just because I'm like an angel all the time doesn't mean I'm not a devil too. I mean, I have my nice and mean days. Doesn't everyone? So maybe their mean days don't include pulling pranks, but I blame it on my childish manners. Okay, so maybe being childish just might be a negative trait, but I refuse to think so. Maybe I'm just a little bit stubborn, and while we're at it, a little too curious for my own good. And maybe, just maybe, I'm easily jealous. I'm jealousy Jane. Now that I've practically told you all my negative traits, let's move on.
* what's your biggest secret? we won't tell.Secret? Hmm... That's a good one. I mean, I have lots of secrets, but so do you, and everybody else in the world. They can be small or they can be life-changing, just depends how you see it and what you do about it. I normally don't like to share secrets with strangers, or anyone, really, but what they hey, you already know all the bad things about me. I like sparkly things. That's right. Sparkles. They're so magical and pretty. I guess I cheated, huh? That's not really my biggest secret, but my biggest secret isn't even that much of a secret. I'm adopted, shhh -winks- Yeah, but I think I mentioned this earlier already, though, so not much of a surprise there.
* what does your heart want?My own Prince Charming, of course. No. Wait, my heart wants a sexy Victoria's Secret model that pole dances. Or better yet, Miranda Kerr-laughs- No, I'm just totally kidding, but Miranda Kerr is totally hot, just saying. Umm you know the celebrity I look like? Yeah, she has this song, and I think one of her lyrics goes like this: "You'll be the Prince and I'll be the Princess." Yeah, that's what I want. My own happily ever after. My Prince needs to be a gentleman- good luck to me- he needs a sense of humour, knows how to have fun, like all my negative traits just as much as my positive ones. He needs to be smart and know what he wants in life. I hate smokers and druggies, so that's a big no no. A very big turn-off. When I grow older, I want a cliched family life. A loyal husband, a two story house, a white picket fence, and two and a half kids. And if he can't deal with all that, well then, it's his lost.
* what do you do in your spare time?Reading! -pumps fist in air- Oh, sorry, I thought I was doing that in my head. Um, yeah, reading. I don't have much spare time considering my school work and my actual work, but when I do find that rare bit of free time, I usually spend it reading a book of any kind. Text book, romance novel, a dictionary, etc. Learning is my thing after all! -grins- And if I'm not reading, I'm probably out hanging with the boys, having fun somewhere, fooling around. Or I might be out and about, pulling pranks or something. Or you know, I could helping someone out, but it probably ends up with a clever revenge plan that includes pranking and humiliation. But I do also like to spend my time studying law and baking and cooking because who doesn't love food? So yeah, it usually all balances out well. Most of the time anyway, when I don't doodle at work, and lazy around -sticks out her tongue-
* so what does your family life look like?Ah well, let's see, I was born in Wisconsin, or so my parents tell me. When I was three years old, our part of the building caught on fire. My parents had insisted the firefighter to save me first, and when he was about to go for that second trip to get my parents out, it was already too late, the building had already started falling apart. Of course, I didn't find out about it until I was seventeen. See, ever since that accident, I've been moved from foster home to foster home. By the time I was five, I had already been in six different homes. Eventually, I ended up in Walten, where a nice couple was looking to adopt. Of course, I was older than most adoptable ages, but something about me attracted them, and that's how I got into this family. They're really nice people, and I love them with all my heart. I owe them my life. They are very important to me and I would do anything for them. My two older brothers, on the other hand, well, we'll see. Them and I, we, have a very cliched sister-brothers relationship. And although we're not blood related, we act like we are. Sometimes, when we felt like it, we'd be nice to each other, buy each other things, make food for the other, stuff like that. And other times, when we don't feel like it, we torture each other- pulling pranks like dumping ice cold water in each other's faces in the morning, spreading glue on the toilet seat, use up all the hot water, string all the cereal boxes together only to find they're all empty, etc. I love them, but sometimes I swear I want to strangle them. If only the Homer-Bart strangle thing worked in real life... -sighs-. Anyway, back to me finding out about my biological parents. So yeah, I always knew I was adopted because well, the signs were obvious, and I wasn't oblivious. They had brunette hair while mine was blonde. They had hazel eyes while mine were sometimes blue sometimes green. So one day, I got the courage to confirm it with my parents and they didn't deny it. I asked them about my real parents and they said they didn't know anything about them, and that I should try the orphanage I was in when they adopted me, so I called. And then it was just all chain calls back to Wisconsin's orphanage, and then my last call was to the fire department, and they asked around for that firefighter, and he told me the whole story. I thanked him, and everything. He saved my life, after all.
Oh, and I do have another family, well, not really a family but like.... I'm not making any sense, am I? Well, you remember the two guys I was talking about that opened up the law firm? Yeah? Okay. Yeah well you know how I applied to the job, right? I mean, even before applying there, I had loved law. So anyway, there I was, sitting in their lounge with a bunch of other pretty and more profession girls, applying for the same position. I was nervous, I'm not going to lie, but I wasn't about to give up. So I went in there, made some witty remarks and jokes, and I guess that's what differed me from them. I thought I wasn't going to get the job because I was being a total loser, but to my surprise, they hired me. I got to be myself and still work in a place I loved. I even got to go see some of their cases in court when I had free time, and it was incredible. And at those moments I realized that I was going down the right road. That my decision of doing my major in law was right. I mean, being a lawyer is when you're helping people and fixing their problems. And I, as mentioned before, love helping and fixing things, so what better career is there than become a lawyer? And my bosses, well they're amazing. I love them to pieces and we have the same kind of relationship as I do with my brothers, except less pranky and more goofing off. They're like my family away from my family, if you know what I mean. But yeah, enough about my boring history, it's just a bunch of cliches anyway.
* what are the memorable moments in your life?Okay, so this one time, I was walking down the street right? And normally, I pay attention to where I'm going, but then this morning, when I went to change, all my clothes were gone. Knowing it's one of my brothers' up-to-no-good-prank, I barged into their door and demanded to know where my clothes were. Turns out they were hung out on the tree the next block down. I spent two hours of my morning picking out my clothes from the tree. Do you know how many times I had to climb up that tree? Don't answer that question. It's rhetorical. Anyway, I got changed, and went to talk a walk to cool myself down, but then as I walked, I accidentally bumped into this really hot guy. So I said sorry, and then he said sorry, and then we laughed, and we began talking and talking. We talked the whole night and everything. So the next morning, he calls me and asks me if I wanted to go on a date with him. Of course I said yes, otherwise I'd be a dumbass if I said no. We went on a few more dates after that one, and things went amazing. We were together for three years. On my twenty first birthday, he told me to dress really nicely because he was taking me to a fancy restaurant. I thought he was going to propose to me. So the whole time, during the dinner, I expected to find a ring in my food, or him to go down on one knee and pop the question. He never did, so I thought maybe he'd ask when we got to my house. By the time we got there, it was ten minutes past twelve. I was smiling like a fool, my heart beating a thousand miles an hour, waiting for the question. Instead, he broke up with me. He said there was another girl that he liked more and he figured he'd wait till after my birthday to break the news. Bummer right? I know.
My second one would be when I got adopted, of course. I remember every single second of that day as if it were yesterday. It started off with these two young couple walking in the orphanage with their two little boys. I looked at the babies with their foolish smiles and eyes wide with excitement as they crawled upon their cribs to see the strangers. Then I looked at the kids that were older than me. They were huddled in a corner, talking in murmured voices, ignoring the new arrivals. They knew they were too old to be adopted. And then there was me, sitting in the garden by myself, giggling and sniffing at the flowers. I, too, knew I was just a little too old to be adopted. Most parents looked for newborns. So there I was, picking out all sorts of flowers. They approached me and crouched down next to me, asking me what I was doing. I said "Looking at flowers. I want to be pretty just like them! Want one? This one's just as pretty as you!" The woman, of course, said thank you as I giggled and walked away to the little kid that was always by himself. I was the only one who ever actually went up to him and talked to him- even when he made no attempt to make a noise. I talked for about ten minutes before the adoption counsellor walked over to me. I told him I'd be right back, but I never did. I never had my chance to say goodbye, but I wrote to him everyday, though I'm not sure if he ever did receive them. I wonder where he is now or if someone adopted him into a nice family. I'd do anything to get in touch with him again.
My third one, of course, would be when I first got the job at the law firm. I mean, they're my connection to the world of law. They were the key to the door I was about to open. They were so nice to me on my first day at work. I screwed up so many times, it's not even funny, but eventually, I got the hang of it. From the moment they hired me, that was the moment that I will never take back. Because of that time in my life, I now have the two greatest bosses in the world. I mean, when I was sitting at the lounge, I had thought that I wouldn't get the job. I was new in this industry, I looked too young, I was still in school, and I didn't have the professional personality like the other girls that wanted the job. For whatever reason they had to hire me, I am very grateful. They are amazing people and I would do anything for them. They are the two people that I will never forget.
* so we've heard that you're a lot like tinkerbell
name: Tinker, her last name, came from the movie because she was part of the Tinker group- where they like to fix and build things. Isabell was mixed together, just so it sounds less weird if it's Sara Bell. Bell is the name that came from Peter Pan. They named her Bell because her dialogue only consisted of a tinkling bell.
play by: For the obvious reason, they both have blonde hair. I picked Taylor Swift because she has that bubbly/cheerful aura that makes her seem very pixie/faerie-like.
positive traits: Sara loves to learn, and I got this from the movie Tinkerbell. In that movie, she had gotten all her fairy friends to teach her what they do. I got fixing things from that movie also. And because she's a tinker, and tinkers build and fix things. Instead of things though, I changed it into people's problems.
negative traits: Flirty and always hanging out with boys, I got it from Peter Pan. Tinkerbell was always with Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. I got ill-tempered and vindictive from that movie as well because in there, Tinkerbell had gotten the Lost Boys to shoot arrows at Wendy. Also, it is said that the fairy's size prevents her from holding more than one feeling at a time, so that's where I got the part where Sara only feels one emotion at a time. In the movie, Tinkerbell is jealously protective of Peter Pan.
orientation: Well, she does happen to hang around boys, and gets jealous when Peter Pan's attention is on Wendy. And in the latest movie, Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure, you can see Tinkerbell sort of has feelings for Terrance, so I'd say she's straight.
turn ons: Well sense of humour, knows how to have fun, and smart are the descriptors of Peter Pan, but in most movies, Tinkerbell is not exactly searching for love, so it's not exactly easy to tell.
turn offs: Well, Tinkerbell obviously dislikes Captain Hook, so that's one. In Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure, you can see she likes her own bubble while she's working hard.
spare time: Learning/reading, like I said, is where she was learning things from her fairy friends. Doodling, is from Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure, where she draws out what she builds. Hanging out with boys because Tinkerbell's always with the Lost Boys or around boys, generally.
family life: Her two adoptive older brothers are based off her two guides from Tinkerbell, Bobble and Clank. I got the part where her adoptive parents found her when they heard a child's laughter is from the movie as well.
memorable moments: For her first memorable moment, I sort of based it off of her relationship with Peter Pan where he left Tinkerbell and married Moira. For the second one, the boy she left behind, I figured, would have been Terrence. And for the last one, it is based off of Bobble and Clank as well. In the movie Tinkerbell, they're the one who show her the ropes around the job as tinkers, and they're the ones who teach Sara around the ropes as a lawyer.this application was written by Jade, who also plays none other.
