Personality: Kimberly hates drama. She is the person wanting to slap everyone else upside the head and say, “What are you doing?” Kimberly is good at seeing all sides of a conflict or story, so she is generally the mediator for drama. She will not hesitate to tell you that you are an idiot, but that’s only if you already ignored her advice. Kimberly tries to see into the long-term, which is why she is always trying to make people her age see sense when it comes to break-ups and crushes. She is very trustworthy when it comes to secrets. If someone tells her something, nothing can get it out of her.

When with friends, Kimberly is very friendly and cheerful. She may not be good at telling jokes, but she knows a good one when she hears it. When something strikes her as funny, Kimberly has to laugh. And it is a very distinctive, loud laugh. Kim wouldn't insult her friends on purpose, but she can be honest to a fault. She isn't good at lying or sugarcoating things, so she tells it like she sees it. However, Kimberly is very good at apologizing if she has accidently offended someone. But if she meant to insult you, then that's a different story. Kimberly is loyal to her friends, but she won't fight a losing or stupid battle. If her friend is the one at fault, Kim will say so and avoid the rest of the drama.

History: Kimberly is the youngest of three sisters. Luckily, she was several years younger than the twins, so they never had very many cat fights. Kim grew up surrounded by drama from those two; they seemed to need it like a normal person needs oxygen. Every week, the girls would have a new boyfriend over, usually someone who was already dating a friend. She learned to keep her ears open and her mouth shut, but these lessons weren’t warmly received. Kimberly hated hearing about everything her two sisters went through on a daily basis- losing friends, fake friends, secrets, rumors, lies- and decided that she would never take part in it when she was older.

When she entered high school, Kim kept that promise and managed to stay out of the many sticky situations that those around her started. People began to notice and actively tried to avoid including her. They would ask for advice, share a secret, or cry on her shoulder, but for the most part didn’t try to start any problems with her. She had a large circle of acquaintances and a small group of close friends. These were the people that had been there for her when she had been down. While the others only knew her for their own problems, Kimberly's friends actually cared about her as well. Kim got a job at Starbucks her junior year and has stuck with it. Now that she’s graduated, Kimberly has chosen to work for another year before attending the nearby college.

Theme Song: Our Lips Are Sealed
Anything else: Kimberly has a fear of having bad breath, so she always has gum on her person.
