_{♦Altruistic - Would put herself in harms way even for the sake of a stranger.
♦Tough love - It may not show correctly but she really cares for people including her students and coworkers.
♦Extroverted - When taking things seriously, her demeanor is very collected and leveled but she's really an outgoing and loud person who loves to go out and do things with friends and loved ones.
♦Empathetic - Wants to be there for others when they need someone. She's the shoulder to lean on and she'll even go out of her way to deal with whatever problems someone else may have.
♦Rash - She doesn't carefully consider her actions and is rather impetuous and impulsive, acting out on emotions rather than logic. She forgets to mind her feminism and may habitually do very unladylike things despite trying to be more like a lady.}

_{►Resourceful and always takes the initiative; can be frighteningly violent; extremely caring; is not a quitter.}

_{►Her actions are almost always based on her emotions; has an "act first, explanations later" mentality which may cause her to do things wrongfully which she'll regret instantly and feel the need to make up for in whichever way she can.}

_{►Having grown up in a poor and rough neighborhood, Michiko gained a lot of insight and experience through struggle and despair. Her teachers were 'pain' and 'mistake'; as well as a few incredibly peculiar, yet extraordinary homeless people who she has never met more than once. They all gave her a type of philosophical understanding on a topic relatable to their respective past expierences and outlook on life and many other various things. This piqued her interest in philosophy as a young teenager. She didn't expect to be teaching it in school but life proved to be "a box of chocolates" as she would put it, quoting a familiar movie.}

_{♦Has to use reading glasses (which are most likely pink framed)
♦Is actually quite self-conscious of her body so she covers herself up completely most of the time (her turtleneck is sleeveless though) and is watching her weight and wants to eventually become more lady-like. Michiko wants to look strong and be strong. She's working out again and eating well.
♦Was a prominent softball player (but rather played baseball with the boys on the street) and rode on sports scholarships throughout her college career. If it weren't for her athletic skills, she probably would've been stuck in her bad neighborhood.
♦She will fling chalk pieces or throw erasers (textbooks, rulers, staplers or whatever is within arm's reach) with a pitcher's arm at misbehaving students or staff. (She deliberately misses most of the time though)
♦Values having long hair. She really wants to grow it out.
♦Is honestly not that great with philosophy but feels that the knowledge she received from her life experiences and the people she's met must be shared somehow.
♦Really REALLY wants to be a mother and have her own children...someday.}
