Very proud of her abs. Olive complexion, hazel eyes, brunette. Has a tattoo of a star on her left shoulder and "Peace of mind" on her lower back.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Paola has no filter and will be quick to tell people when she's hungry, tired, horny, etc. She can be pretty snarky and foul-mouthed but doesn’t try to really hurt someone with her words. She's very sociable and always looking to do stuff with people, going out and having fun in the clubs. Pao is definitely into her glam and loves compliments on her physical appearance.  Somewhat vain, she spends a lot of time shopping and at the hairdresser not to mention taking selfies. Paola is a bit of a health nut. She doesn't smoke or eat meat and does Pilates daily. Her favorite music is k-pop. In spite of her outgoing personality, she doesn't like talking about her past. She has a temper like she did in high school but she tries to focus her emotions positively.<br/><br/><strong>What Have They Been Up To:</strong>She went to college at Loyola for a couple years but dropped out when she decide she needed to live her life as a woman. Things were pretty rough for awhile there. Her family wouldn't talk to her and expenses ate up a lot of the money she made as the night reception at a hotel. Eventually Pao was able to save enough to got to massage school. Eight years ago she relocated to Miami and opened a spa called the Beach Body Shop. She makes a pretty solid upper middle class income plus having the satisfaction of succeeding on her own. Recently Pao had a bad break-up and wanted to forget some things for a bit so she decided to attend her class reunion.<br/><br/><strong>What Have They Said They've Been Up To:</strong>She's pretty much honest about everything since she obviouly can't hide the big change in her life. However, she does leave out that she did some sex work when she was younger and in need of money. Pao's not exactly ashamed of it as she thinks society needs to get over its puritanical values but its also not something she's just going to spring on people she hasn't seen in two decades.<br/><br/><strong>What Were They Like in High School:</strong>Quiet and somewhat sullen. Very much focused on sports. While not a bully, known to have a temper that could result in a fight. Friendliest with female athletes and casually dated a few.<br/><br/><strong>Memorable High School Moments:</strong>Hitting a walk-off home run to win the state championship with the baseball team.<br/><br/><strong>"Most Likely To...":</strong>Get in a bench-clearing brawl in the World Series.<br/><br/><strong>"In Twenty Years, I'll..."</strong>Coaching baseball after a long career in MLB.<br/><br/><strong>Senior Quote:</strong>"To thine own self be true." (More inspired by<em>Clueless </em>than Shakespeare)<br/><br/><strong>Clubs/Athletics:</strong>Men's Baseball, Spanish Club, Track and Field<br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>Clubbing, gardening, hiking and swimming, checking out artists in her Miami neighborhood, sunbathing, food, baseball, pro wrestling, doing hair and make-up, k-pop (especially the boy bands)<br/><br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>Overly personal questions, judgmental people, guys who think they're players, being on her feet too long, small children, cooking (because she’s terrible at it)<br/><br/><strong>Face Claim:</strong>Bianca Freire<br/><br/><strong>Seeking:</strong>Mainly to get back in touch with people. She had her reasons for being rather closed off back then and would like to have another chance with her peers. And if she finds a fling that takes her mind off her break-up, that would be cool too.<br/><br/><strong>Connections:</strong><br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li></li><li></li></ul><br/><strong>Other:</strong>Her name was Nick in high school, accidental deadnaming or misgendering won't bother her as she knows she's gone through a pretty big change in the last twenty years but actual transphobia will be handled real quick.
