Hello, Rajani Tora Barakat.
» Is there anything you would rather be called?
"Eh... not really. I mean, I don't mind nicknames. I get... Raj. Raja. Raji. Whatever. Change it up as you like. As long as I know you're addressing me."
» Great, now that we've got that covered. How old are you?
"Twenty. Not yet legal. But close."
» You know, has anyone ever told you that you look exactly like...?
"I get Ariana Grande a lot. I disagree completely. She looks like a freaking airhead."

Let's talk about your personality.
» What are a few of your favorite things?
"...Well... I like music. Which correlates to my love for headphones... I have this weird obsession with collecting headphones. Actually, I have this weird obsession for having weird obsessions. Really. Like I people watch a lot... and I'm a huge eavesdropper. People don't... really pay attention to me. Not that I mind. I'm usually tagging along beside my friend Jasmine, but... well, people usually notice her. Not me. Not that I really care, I don't need to be seen... unless someone messes with her. They'd better recognize I'm around, then, because I'll be all up in their face. I'm really protective of my friends, especially her. We're the same age and stuff... actually, she's a few months older than me, but she's just a little sister figure to me. Anyways, things I like... well, not talking. That's for sure. Conversation is awkward, so I don't usually partake in it. Jasmine says thats because I usually talk with my expressions... which I guess is true. Usually I can give people a look and they know what I'm thinking. I also like... video games... reading. Nerd stuff. Clothes. Yeah yeah, I don't like being seen, but I really like patterns, putting funky things together, sketching designs... I'm actually into unique fashions. Maybe I'll come out with my own clothes line. Doubt it but... well... you never know."
»That's interesting. Is there anything you absolutely dislike?
"I absolutely don't like... douche bags. Especially if they hit on my friend. Lame mens underwear. I dunno... its a weird pet peeve of mine. And I don't like it when my friend wanders off on her own, which she tends to do. A lot. Jasmine... she's awesome, but i swear sometimes? She doesn't use her head. Anyways... I hate that too. People who don't use their heads. Airheads. Lazy bums. This list could sort of go on for like... ever...."
» Hm, what is your greatest fear?
"Losing Jas. Hands down."
» Yeah, that is scary. Do you have any dreams for the future?
"... Not really. I mean... you know, just getting college done. I don't... have anything. I mean it'd be cool if I... you know got to design in the future or became a music producer or... I dunno. Something. I don't know..."
» Wow, I hope you succeed. Can you tell me a little bit about yourself?
"Well... I'm not exactly sugar, spice, and everything nice. Isn't that what girls are made of or something? I think I read that somewhere... or maybe it was on television... anyways, I'm not exactly... social or party harty or anything else college kids are supposed to be. I stick to the shadows. I'll admit I'm a little... hard to swallow. I'm tough. I was raised to be tough. I've always been tough. My dad... he was really tough, always. But... er, anyways... I'm a little defensive. I don't like talking about myself, so this interview it awkward. Talking in general, like I said, is awkward. No one knows what to say because people these days are far too unintelligent to carry on good, wholesome conversation, especially in this setting... and by setting I mean college. Everyone's so focused on having fun or getting that degree... either way, they're boring and have nothing to talk about that I want to talk about. I'm... not a people person. So I stick close to Jasmine. She's really the only friend I need. I don't need anyone... but her... but only because she needs me... and.... I'll admit, its kinda nice... you know, having someone need me..."

So far so good. Now for history.
» So tell me, where are you from? What did you think of it?
"India, actually. I'm from India. That's actually where Jas and I met. My dad worked alongside her dad as an assistant, and they made the place a pretty big deal... like, celebs book there. Anyway, what I think of it... I mean, I guess it was home. I'm don't miss it. Not even my dad. Our relationship hasn't changed since I left: talking once a week, a present every holiday with I love you at the bottom. He travels a lot for Jas's dad. More then half the time, I feel like an orphan. I lived with Jas, pretty much. That's how we're so close."
» Do you have any other family? Parents? Siblings? Extended? What do you think about them?
"Well my dad, like I said. I'm an only child. My mom sorta booked it when I was nine, bored with the thought of raising a family. Moved to America... I hope I never see her again."
» What is your worst memory/memories?
"Definitely the day I fell off the jungle gym in what you guys call elementary school. I was hanging upside down on the monkey bars... like I wasn't supposed to, of course. But... I was hanging upside down, just swinging there being a dork like I was, then suddenly, I was falling. The bar had actually broken. I actually, literally thought I was dead. Like really, I thought I had died. I was knocked out... and apparently I stopped breathing. And I was gushing blood from my chin. Huge mess. But I woke up in the clinic with this doctor at my side... like, one from the hospital, being put on the stretcher. I almost had a fit. But everything turned out okay. I had to get stitches in my chin and I get migraines kinda easy to this day. They're still always checking for brain damage. But that feeling I got when I fell... terrifying. I'll never forget it."
» What is your best memory/memories?
"Hm... hard one. I guess my fifteenth birthday was cool. I wasn't a popular kid. Not really social, sorta dorky... in my own nerdy way. But two days after I turned sixteen... Jas and I had gone to see a movie on my birthday, they had cake and a sleepover afterwords. I was all content with it... but one day, when I came home from school, my dad decided to take me to buy a necklace for my birthday, a special present from him and all that for a significant birthday. Well... get this. We then went to Jas's house and there were like fifty something people at the door and they're all like "Surprise!". Jas had set up this huge party for me... I was in shock. Hotel staff, some kids from school, some of their parents... it was this huge deal in her backyard and it was the happiest day... ever. Really, ever. I don't know what came over me but I just let go and... had fun. The necklace my dad got me? Its kinda... mean. But I have it always to remind me of that day...
» Where are you now? What are you doing with your life?
"Now, I'm doing the college thing. I'm taking accounting, but I hate it. Between you and me? I just picked something to my dad would send me off with Jas. I just can't find a career I really want... well, nothing logical, nothing I can actually do. The fashion thing... I'm not good enough at it. And its too quirky. So... I'm kinda in a stuck position. No idea what to do, hating what I'm in. Not ever doing very well. But I'm working to figure it out. I'll graduate... eventually. Then get an apartment with Jas or something until she marries off then travel the world like I've always wanted to do. On my own? Oh yeah, no problems. Besides, she'll get married quick. Besides, she's already smitten with that... guy. She's all bubbly and likable anyways. But... my future and current life are kinda screwy. But I'll figure it out."
