Although the term is used more for bustier women, she considers herself to be that shape because of her small waist, making her hips rounder and bust more noticeable. Her skin is naturally sunkissed and she enjoys keeping herself well groomed and clean, yet simple, without applying much makeup. Her lashes are naturally black and thick, creating an effect of volume (though she still enjoys applying mascara and eyeliner occasionally.) The only noticeable thing on her body would be a small scar on her abdomen from a surgery to remove her appendix which she had when she was in her early teens.<br/><br/><strong>Hair:</strong>Dark brown reaching to her waist/mid back.<br/><strong>Skin:</strong>Tanned.<br/><strong>Eyes:</strong>Chocolate brown.<br/><strong>Height:</strong>5'2".<br/><strong>Weight:</strong>110lbs.<br/><strong>Body Build:</strong>Slender yet toned.<br/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://www.magxone.com/uploads/2009/10/Nina-Dobrev-Elle-Bulgaria-November-3.jpg)</div><strong>Personality:</strong>Isabella is often told she's a light at the end of a tunnel, though she doesn't take compliments well and never knows what to say to that. She is bright, bubbly and friendly to everyone she meets, whether they be a homeless person on the street or a high class business woman too busy with her working day to be polite. She always, always tries her best to help any situation. This has lead to her being very stubborn. When it comes to hard situations, or even just watching a sad movie, Bella can be extremely emotion and she isn't afraid to show said emotions. Her friends sometime refer to her as an open book, so inner termoil is definitely not her thing; it's all allowed to the surface. Often is she found listening to her friends, families and even strangers problems and she always has decent advice to give them in return. This cannot be said for herself, however. She struggles to help herself once she's in some sort of trouble and can never go with her own advice. Although in some aspects she is very independent, in others she needs guidance and someone to rely on. Because of her travels and studies, the brunette has a willingness to learn and enjoys being taught new things. Bella is terrified of failure as a result of her life morals and cannot accept it in any way. She also feels that if she has started something, even if she really, really hates it, she must complete it to the best of her ability.<br/><br/><strong>Postive Personality Traits:</strong>Friendly, Charismatic, Loyal, Polite, Great student.<br/><strong>Negative Personality Traits:</strong>Stubborn, Easily frustrated with herself, self conscious, Hard on herself, Emotional, No self control.<br/><br/><strong>Motivations:</strong>Isabella wants to see the world. She wants to learn, see, hear, smell and taste new things; she wants to experience new things. This is one of the reasons she has started studying abroad in America -- her first stop on her world travels and now possibly her last.<br/><strong>Outlook:</strong>When it comes to her surroundings and other people, Bella is very optimistic. It's a different matter when it comes down to her. She can be quite hypocritical and is quite pessimistic to or about herself/situations involving herself. (This isn't to say she would cry and throw a fit when people are around, she would try to be optimistic most of the time, but really she wouldn't be so sure or confident and when by herself or with people she was most comfortable around she would be quite down on things.)<br/><strong>Sexuality:</strong>Straight.<br/><br/><strong>Interests/Hobbies:</strong>Reading, Dancing, Exploring, Trying new things, Thrill seeking.<br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>American food, Clothes, Shopping, Sweets, Exercising, Coffee, Romantic action movies, Lazy days in front of the TV.<br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>Make up, Fake tan, Windy days, Being ill, Hospitals, Needles, Taking medicine, Ignorant people.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Isabella was born to an Italian household and a big family consisting of her mother, father, three older brothers, two older sisters and two younger brothers. Her mother and father were childhood sweethearts and had been together since their school days. They were always madly in love and still are to the present day, as one could tell from the amount of children they have had together. Bella and her siblings were also very close to her mothers side of the family and often visited them in Rome where she enjoyed always begged her father to take her to see the architecture of the beautiful city. Her childhood consisted of love, excitement and fun even though they weren't the wealthiest family.<br/><br/>It was only in her late teens that she started realizing what she wanted to do; travel the world. Isabella managed to get herself a part time job at a coffee shop in the center of town and worked as often as she could, trying to save up the money to take her studies abroad. In her early college years she was offered a scholarship of sorts and paid a small percentage of her tuition and travel fees to study over in New York, America. It was hard, leaving her family, but she knew it was something she wanted to do with her life and it was a perfect start to her travels.<br/><br/>America was different to how she imagined it, but ultimately she started adjusting well and things began to become easier to her; she was always great at English anyway. She stayed on site at her college with a roommate who was from Washington, USA, and the two became quite close friends within the first few months. Sadly, the girl had to go back home within the first year because of family problems and Bella's roommate was replaced with another female student who she didn't get on with very well at all. Luckily, the girl was hardly ever around; too busy partying and drinking with friends. It wasn't long after her roommate was replaced that the virus had started to spread and life as she and everyone else knew it changed forever.
