LET’S BEGIN WITH BASICSname: Charmonique Natalia Vogt.
What can I say, it’s just the name I was born with.
nicknames: Monique.
Not that much shorter; but I still prefer to be called Charmonique.
age: Seventeen.
Only one more year and I’ll be eighteen, thank goodness.
hometown: Las Vegas, NV
I miss it there, plenty of parties!
orientation: Heterosexual.
That means I’m straight, nothing real important.
DEVIL WITH A PRETTY FACEheight: 5 feet 7 inches
I honestly like my height, and I’m not a shawty!
weight: 115 lbs
I need to gain some weight, I know, just shh.
build: Rather skinny, almost average
Yes I'm skinny, but I like my curves.
hair: Long, dark brown
I like to keep it soft and shiny.
eyes: Greenish blue
They lean more towards the blue side though.
skin: Sun-kissed and soft
I like having soft skin, thank you moisturizer.
piercings: Ears and navel
No facial piercings... Yet. Just my ears and tum-tum.
style: Simple yet classy; something you would find every day, just a little dressed up. Adding a few accessories to a simple outfit can really make a difference on how the entire look turns out- or how you do your makeup with it. Charmonique tries not to wear too dark of makeup, but every once and awhile she will have it a little on the dark eyeliner side.
DEMEANOR OF THE GIRLoutgoing: Interested in and responsive to others; friendly; sociable.
Charmonique is not the type to just sit back and listen in a conversation, nor is she the type to keep quiet when she sees someone she wants to meet. She's the type that will go up to anyone and strike a conversation.
sarcastic: Of, pertaining to, or characterized by sarcasm: a sarcastic reply.
Sarcasm is like Charmonique's second language and she's gotten very fond of speaking it. Not to mention she speaks it quite fluently as well. It's not hard to tell when she's being serious from sarcastic, because when she's being serious- she gets this look of determination and annoyance.
humorous: Having or showing the faculty of humor; droll; facetious.
Charmonique loves jokes and laughing. She'll crack her own without hesitation. Sometimes people may find her humor to be kind of rude- considering she's very quick when it comes to come-backs- but if she finds it funny, she's not afraid to laugh at it.
unforgiving: Not disposed to forgive or show mercy; unrelenting.
Although Charmonique tries to be a nice person, she doesn't believe in second chances. Nobody ever changes even if they say they have; and that's why if you continuously lie to her or intentionally try to bring her down, she will want nothing more to do with you; and if you keep trying to bug her she becomes a rather feisty and violent person. She’s not someone you would want to be on bad terms with.
LIKES:- Dancing, mainly dirty.
- Colors; dark, light, and bright.
- Japanese food and their culture.
- The rain.
- Beaches, depending on if the water's clean.
- Music, usually doesn't matter but some things she just can't stand.
- Exercising, being in shape and healthy is always good.
- Lazy days, just a nice time for her to kick back in some sweat-pants.
DISLIKES:- Loud obnoxious people, they just give her headaches.
- Judgmental people who only base things on looks.
- Guns; shooting and killing.
- Snow, it's just too cold, but pretty.
- Not knowing what's below her, which is why she can't get in the water even though she likes the beach.
- Wasted talent- enough said.
- Repetitive songs- who needs to hear the same word over and over again?
- Bad hair days, what teenage girl doesn't mind when her hair gets messed up? Obviously not her.
LET’S TAKE A STEP BACKSo how are you on this fine day… Charmonique? Do you go by anything else?“I’m fine, thanks for asking. You can call me Monique if you want, but I prefer you don’t.”
Alright, if you insist. So tell me something about yourself?“What do you wanna know?”
Well, is there anything you're afraid of?"Well, I hate not knowing what's beneath me, it freaks me out. And it scares me to walk around town alone, I don't want to get molested or something."
Um, alright, cool. So how’s your family?“I have an older brother who went to live in Germany. My mother died giving birth to me and my father is in jail. Fun right?”
Oh, I apologize!“Nah don’t. Shit happens. I moved in with my aunt though, she manages a salon, so it could be worse.”
Um… Alright, I guess that’s true. So how old are you?“Old enough. Nah I’m seventeen.”
Seventeen, such a good age! So, what are some of your talents?“Um… Sure… Well I’m pretty good at dancing, and doodling, and alright at singing I guess. Nothing special.”
What aren’t you good at?“Oh Jesus, a lot of things. Nobody's perfect after all.”
Very true. Do you have any secrets you don’t mind telling?“Everyone has at least one secret. I think my biggest secret is when I was about… Oh thirteen… The boy I was with who I lost my virginity to was abusive. That’s all; and now I have to kill you… Just kidding.”
Oh, I’m sorry for that too. Um… Yup, anyways, that brings me to another question. What do you like in a guy?“They need a sense of humor, and they need to make me feel safe. I’m sorry but if a guy is going to hide behind me if we got into a gang fight, that would be just sad… And them cleaning up well would be a plus.”
Ain’t that the truth. So, what type of music do you listen to?“A lot of things; mostly screamo, but I’ll listen to some 3oh3 and Ke$ha too.”
Screamo always scares me, but everyone has different opinio-“Hell yeah they do… Sorry.”
…It’s okay. So, what are some of your favorite quotes?“Barbie may be perfect, but just remember she ended up with a guy with plastic balls. I like that one. And I like what Zoolander said: ‘How are we supposed to teach children to learn how to read if they can’t even fit inside the building?’ I find that so funny!”
Ha, yeah that’s a good movie. So, anything you regret?“Getting drunk at a party one time, waking up with bruises and scars all over me. Don’t remember all that happened that night, but I could already tell it was pretty bad. Oh well, that’s in the past.”
Oh… Well alright... With your dad being in jail and an abusive ex boyfriend, have you ever talked to a councilor or gone to therapy?“Ha! Hell nah! I don't need to see the shrink, I just write my thoughts down in a journal and push threw on my own. It could be worse after all.”
I guess that’s true. Well it was nice talking to you Charmonique, thank you for letting me interview you. Have a good day.“No problem. Peace and love.”
