Jay Gatsby hands down. I am a raging idealist and an extremely avid dreamer. I often find myself reaching for the "Green Light", even when it isn't there. That's both a good thing and a bad thing, and the novel actually taught me a lot about how to be that dreamer without losing myself to a blind fantasy. :)

I find that I identify with Samwise Gamgee from Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. I'm loyal to a fault, and if you mess with my friend, or if I think you're messing with my friend, you're not going to get the nice side of me, even if it does alienate my friends. If you're my friend (irl tho, i can't keep track of online friends), you can be sure that you'll be protected.

Well, I suppose Arthur Dent. He loves making sandwiches. I as well, not as much eating them. Or Dobby. I'm stubborn, and my whole world revolves around socks. Not really, but I've always felt kind of attached to them, as wherever I go they disappear.

Holden Caulfield, or else, I used to be.

It's hard to tell now. I'd like to think of myself as my own literary character :P

I am rough as a saw-edge and hard as whinstone... ;)

@GoldFlame, how come you never told me you liked socks?!

Anne Shirley, hands down. I've messed up in the worst ways possible, which is probably why my mother refuses to ever let me near the stove. I set an apron on fire once (I had a book in my hand and I was trying to light the stove. Let's just say it didn't really work out!); I've tried to climb down the slope in the school grounds when I was ten, pretending it was the Himalayan range; used hula-hoops as space-ships and fairy-wings -- basically everything except as hula-hoops and...

I find it difficult to shut up. Which I will now proceed to do. :P

Nelly, from Wuthering Heights because the people are me's lives are always far more interesting than my own.
