Personality
Rory is definitely on the reserved side. She always wished she had that bad ass, rough and tough exterior -- the kind that told the world she didn't care about anyone or anything -- but she was just never that girl. In reality, Rory is pure-hearted down to the core and really cares about other people, and the last thing she wants is to bother others or get in the way. Even when she doesn't know a person, she finds herself wanting to trust them and wishing the best for them. Anything she can do to help out, she'll do in a heartbeat. In fact, she's spent so long worrying about other people and trying to stay out of the way that she has trouble even figuring out her own feelings sometimes. Rory is light-hearted, witty, and easy-going, but now that's she's reached the point in her life where she needs to figure out what she wants, she struggling to sort out what she's truly passionate about for herself.

Hobbies
singing & songwriting | reading scientific articles | fixing things & doing handy-work

Aspirations
Rory's current dream is just to come up with some sort of life plan. At the moment, she is pursuing a completely different path than she thought she would, which is a career in showbiz as a singer/songwriter

History
You don't get much more sheltered than Rory. She had a perfectly average childhood, a loving family (with two siblings), and the most adorable of pets. Her parents fostered a glowing sense of curiosity in their child and encouraged her to pursue anything that interested her -- which was almost everything, really. Growing up, Rory enjoyed music, sports, school, art, etc. Her friends were supportive of her, and she surprisingly ran into very few social troubles throughout the years. (Of course, that's to be expected when one is constantly wary of being in the way of other people.)


So as it happened, Rory developed an extremely wide range of interests. Being as easy-going as she is, she's doesn't really "mind" that thought of doing much of just about anything for a living, but she's still trying to figure out what it is exactly that she's truly passionate about. As an undergraduate in college, Rory studied various subjects, but ended up graduating with a degree in biology. She thought perhaps she wanted to be a scientist and do research. And she did enjoy being in science, but after going through school for several years, she began to realize how much more important her repressed creative side was to her. And being in science was causing her to shove down her creative side even further... So, upon graduating from undergrad, Rory decided to ditch the whole "scientist" idea and pursue her life-long hobby of playing the piano and composing, becoming a singer/songwriter.

The real mystery here, though, is how someone as reserved as Rory ended up in a program like "Soulmates." Truth be told, she's never actually even dated anyone before. But on her 21st birthday, when her friends had gotten her considerably drunk, they basically manipulated her into signing up for this program -- mostly out of concern for their friend having never been with a significant other, despite being 21 years of age. By the time Rory realized her mistake and regretted it, it was too late to go back. She decided it would be easier to just follow through with it. As awkward as it would be, she thought, perhaps it would end up being worth it...
