Laura: The uptight overachiever

So, Laura comes from a very wealthy family and her parents work at one of the top business firms in the world. She has very good grades and has taken the most advanced courses in her school. She is very involved in law club, business club, and lacrosse, and has recently won an award in a national business competition. She is currently striving to get into the top schools in the country to pursue business management and will do anything, even winning a game show like Total Drama, to up her reputation. She does not tolerate any goofing off or 2nd place, which can come across as her being bossy. In terms of other flaws, she can’t handle criticism very well and she can come across as quite selfish and self-centered, which can make her come across as unlikable with some of the people she’s worked with in the past.

Audition tape:


 * Camera shows a tall, skinny girl with blonde hair. She's wearing a red dress with a denim and red plaid blazer over it, and has black high heels. She also has dark blue mascara on, black eyeliner, and rose-colored lipstick. She is in a large classroom that is nearly empty; one half of the classroom has desks, posters, and a whiteboard, and the other half of the classroom has a computer lab with a few printers. She is giving a small smile at the camera, straightens up her back to improve her posture, raises her chin up a little, and slowly begins to open her mouth.

Laura: Hi everyone! I'm very excited to announce that my project got accepted to the DECA National Conference and I get to present it and show the world that my project is so much better than theirs! In preparation for this, I'm going to be delivering an elevator pitch about myself.


 * Laura clears her throat*

Laura: My name is Laura Roark and I am a junior at Westlake High School. I have taken many honors and AP classes and I am a straight-A student, I am very involved in lacrosse, field hockey, law club, business club, and DECA of course. I'm currently running against that boring guy Donald for senior class president, but with some of the tactics and experience I'll bring to the table, I intend to swat him like a fly. As for personal things, I do have a few pet peeves, like....


 * The printer suddenly starts to print out several papers, leading Laura to grit her teeth and growl lowly, her face turning a hint of bright red*

Laura: NO PRINTING WHEN I'M TALKING!!!!!!


 * a short boy with black hair, glasses, and freckles gives a high-pitched scream and sprints out of the classroom*

Laura: Ugh, I just HATE it when people interrupt me. I also cannot stand immature pranks, anything disgusting like snot and *eeeergh* mushrooms, and annoying people who just exist honestly. Anyways, I hope to use this game and the winnings as a stepping stone to my college education and my hopes to pursue business or business education, and most importantly, to set my mark on the globe. It's a dog-eat-dog world out there, and you need to take advantage of every opportunity you have. That's the way I live.

Camera guy: That was pretty long for an elevator pitch Laura....

Laura: *sighs* Oh lighten up, Carlos. It only took a little less than 90 seconds.

Girl in background: Hey Laura! Your ex told me to give you this! *hands her an envelope*

Laura: UGH! What on earth does he want now??? *she opens up the envelope to find a plastic flower that squirts water all over her, messing up her make-up* *she grunts loudly, clenching her fist, and exits the room*
