personality, basically, izzy is a dork. she's the definition of that word, and owns it in every way. she laughs at nothing, is easily entertained, loves horror movies, and old comic books. she's the type of girl that has lots of guy friends, because she's so calm and chill all the time. but then again, she's also the type of girl who might not be friends with the 'popular' crowd because she's a dork. she's happy with life the way it is, for the most part, and she's not too worried about changing it all the time. even though she wouldn't admit it, she's also a little bit romantic in there too, the kind of hopeless romantic that comes with being a dork. she's okay with it too, and really embraces that fact, and lets it just show she doesn't care. other people's opinions of her really don't matter that much, but she's already accepted that they think she's a royal dork, and by accepting this insult and using it as something she loves, she scorns anyone who insults her with it.
if you know izzy, you know that music basically runs her entire life, and it always has. with a father who works as a musician, and instruments at her finger tips since she was about four, she's always had a love for music. she never leaves for anywhere without her ipod, which has to be as big as they make it, to accomodate her eclectic taste in music. one week it could be hip hop, and the next week it could be death metal. her changes in music also show her constant changes in character. she never stays the same, and never does the same thing twice. you can't base your thoughts of her, on how she reacted to something once, because she might not react that way again. but the one constant with her is her love for the acoustic guitar. that one solid is the one thing that makes her calm down completely, and relax and let go. when she's playing her guitar, she becomes in her own little world, and no one can really touch her there.
her temper is short lived, when it does flair up. most things don't anger her enough for her to even bat and eyelid, but when they do, she's quick to stop being pissed. it's not in her nature to hold grudges and stay angry with people, and that can sometimes be bad. without meaning to, she gives people a chance to walk all over her without consequences. she'd rather let someone else deal with her problems, than to go and deal with them on her own. she avoids confrontation, and prefers to sit down and relax, and let things work themselves out, rather than go out and make the change happen. for her, if she loses a friend over something trivial, she doesn't really care. because in her eyes, if that person were a true friend, they wouldn't care in the first place. her mind isn't the easiest thing to unravel, but if you can, your looking into one of the most unique minds in the universe.
fights problems with bigger problems,
family members,
• archibold zachary longfellow - father - fifty seven - musician
• sophia olive conrad - mother - forty seven - beautician
• olivia jennifer conrad longfellow - younger sister - deceased at three months
detailed history, archie and sophia met at a run down bar in california, where archie was living, and sophia was visiting. he was playing his acoustic guitar, the live entertainment for the night, trying to make a few bucks here or there. something about his music and his looks brought sophia to stay a while longer, coming to the bar more often than not, just to see him. after a few weeks, he finally got up the nerve to ask her out, taking her out for a night she'd always remember. of course, we all know how that works, and the two ended up waking up together, and they both knew what'd happened. but it wasn't until about three months of dating, that sophia realized she was pregnant. now most people would have worried, but she was so infatuated with archie, she didn't worry at all about him running out on her. she was right too. he stuck by her through everything, doing everything he could to scrounge up money so she could have the right kind of life. and on may fifteenth, isabella entered the world. she must have been lucky, 'cause that same day, a company finally signed her dad.
two weeks after her birth, her parents were officially married, now that they had the money to make it official. they moved to new york to work closer to her father's record company now, and he spent a lot of time recording music, and spending it not at home. but once he'd recorded his first set of songs, his sole attention was his daughter, so that his wife could go back to work as a beautician. she found quick, good paying work, and soon they had enough money to buy a nice house, one they could call their own. there was even enough money to furnish it the way they liked, and splurge on things. things such as the guitar that izzy's father gave her when she was six. he'd always noticed her admiring his guitars when he played, and when he gave her the guitar, it was the beginning of everything for her. she picked up on things quickly, and soon began figuring out things that real musicians would need, as a six year old. this was the beginning of something amazing for izzy.
when she was seven, her mother had another daughter, a lovely little baby that would've made an amazing addition to the family. izzy would never admit it, but she never liked the baby, and so when she died after three months, her sorrow was rather forced. her mother became clinically depressed, and went on medication for it. but soon she was addicted to it, and her husband sent her to rehab, to help her kick the habit, and get over the loss of their daughter. this gave izzy a lot of time to spend with her dad, and thus she became even more involved in music. her whole life became involved in it, and she often went to work with her dad, just to see what he did, and to occasionally play with him if he asked her to. her father was everything to her, because of what he taught her, and she didn't really need her mother. they were fine without her, but of course she was glad when she came home, although it did take about four years before that happened.
she went through the beginning of high school like a normal kid, until her dad had to move to england for his job. well, she wasn't going to stay in the city with her mom, and during the summer before her sophmore year, she moved to england with her dad, into an apartment near a local high school, one that she could go to and take almost the same subjects that she'd been taking back home. she stood out like a sore thumb at first, with her hard american accent and her non british habits that were clear to almost everyone. but after a few months, she settled into the lifestyle in europe and didn't even notice the differences between her and her friends, although when they talked it was completely different sounding. her sophmore year was a little rough, considering she wasn't exactly the kind of girl to be popular with everyone, but she got through it and spent the summer back home with her mom, staying in nyc and seeing all her old friends. but she was really glad to come back to england, and it was a little funny that she now considered it home.
