Joan Of Arcadia - What Character Reminds You Of Yourself And Why?

**Rainstorm Jenny** · 03-28-2005, 12:19 AM

I didnt see a topic for this so I thought I would start one. I was just thinking this over at the Friedman thread about what characters remind me of me and I would have to say a bit of Grace, Joan, and Adam. Never really fit in with kids at my school and was kinda in my own little world at times like Adam.

So what about you?

Good topic Jen

Like I said at the Friedman thread, Friedman reminds me of myself cause I use to have a problem in High school with getting a girlfriend and keeping them.

I've got Luke's nerdy love of science, a certain extent of Grace's attitude (I shall never wear a dress! NEVER!) [...plus, like Grace, I'm a lefty

] and Adam's quiet and shy understanding of the world.

Also, Luke's plotline in "Dive" about having a fear of failure....yep, that's definitely me!!

Great topic Jenny!!

This is a hard one for me. I was a mix of Luke and Joan. Shy and really into school like Luke and kind of sarcastic like Joan.

Awesome. We've come to the conclusion on other forums that I am Grace. Or rather, Grace is me, since I'm older. I acted exactly like her in high school, had the exact same jacket (50 bucks at a thrift shop, go me), which I still have and wear all the time, skateboarding, left handed Jewish anarchist with a biting wit. Oh, and quite a similar wardrobe. (My personal favorite being the Care-O-Meter shirt with the gage on empty.)

ok, i am a mixture of grace and joan!

grace, because i can be very stubborn, hate almost all of my teachers, love skateboarding (greetings to my best friend Jasmin, i love you for "teaching" me how to skate, it was an awesome summer '03), i am totally for freedom of opinion, i hate cute stuff like red roses, the color pink, Valentine's Day;
i am not a NICE person (really, even some of my friends would say, that i can be very evil

!)
and i go very "overboard", when someone acts unfair

and i am also a little bit of joan, because i am sarcastic ad infinitum!!!!

well, that should be enough "reasons"

I'm a Joan. Hah, because I'm just as crazy and sarcastic. I swear sometimes the things Joan do I do as well. I also get emotional quickly like her and sometimes I can be pissed off easily. Espically the episode where she tried to dress up for Adam and he didn't notice, the speech he gave to him about the things she likes and worried he might think she's a bubble head is how I am with my best friend. He is the artistic Adam and I'm the quirky Joan.

I can be Grace with stubborness.

liebchin · 03-28-2005, 11:19 PM

ooh fun, can I play?

I'm a 90% carbon copy of Adam (quiet, sensitive, intuitive) without the crazy artistic talent and photographic memory, damn it. I also have Luke's supreme nerdiness (love to learn, always curious), am sarcastic like Joan, and definitely have her outstanding ability to embarass myself in really creative ways

LPwings · 03-29-2005, 04:26 AM

Im Joan. Definately Joan, or at least I was like her in high school. Im very witty and sarcastic, yet go out of my way to put my friends first. I was definately self-absorbed in high-school. Everything was about my problems. I grew out of it though, which Im sure Joan will too

glory fades · 03-29-2005, 08:18 AM

I'm the most like Joan. I'm kind of sarcastic, and I get very emotional. Sometimes the things Joan does, is what I'd probably do myself.

Payton Tyler · 03-29-2005, 12:52 PM

Grace. I'm a lot like Grace.

But I've also got some Joan in me, in the self-absorbed area. Not something to be proud of, but yeah.

Ron_Cullen · 06-26-2005, 06:07 AM

Definately Grace.

I could care less about fashion. I'm a complete tomboy. Don't want to change my style for anyone. Have the same politcal views. Can be stubborn and have an attitude.

Wow we must be soulmates lol because that pretty much describes me to a tee. Although I also have to add that I have Helen's habit of trying to smile through my tears.

I think that I'm a mix of Joan and Grace. Phisically I'm kinda like Joan, I'm just a little shorter, I'm an average girl I think, and I have some stuff in common with Joan: I'm chatty, sometimes I can be really sarcastic too. I'm like Grace sometimes too.
