Any talents/quirks you share with John Green's characters?

John Green's characters are wonderfully relatable. I was just wondering if you nerdfighters share some of the talents or quirks his characters have.

I share The Colonel's ability to memorise anything, and Alaska's love of books.

What's yours?

I suppose I relate to Margo. Lol. At least, whenever I say things about me, sometimes people go:
"Hey, that reminds me of Margo." xD
And when I read the book, I was all like, ">> << Heh..."

For instance, I have an ever growing desire to leave. And when I will, I'll probably never stop leaving.
I guess...I'm a little like Lindsay Lee Wells. I a little change myself around different people.
But I don't like staying in small towns. I'm much more driven, or I have bigger dreams, than her.
I'm a little like Colin Singleton, too. I don't anagram things nor am I a child prodigy, but I like words. And when I come up with an idea for a project, I kind of obsess about it. I don't have a Jew-fro though.
I'm probably most like Lindsay in the sense that i have different personas for different social groups. When I'm with my friends from school, anything goes. When I'm with my friends from another school who I've known for almost seven years, not everything is really acceptable, so i'll tone it down a bit.

I'm also kind of like Alaska in the sense that i love books.

I like to think I'm like Lacey Pemberton too, in the sense that I'm really very mean to those who don't know me, but i would hope that I'm a lot nicer in person.

im probably like colin because i always want to matter and i have only two friends
Oh, yeah...I only have two friends, too. But they're really good friends. Colin FTW.
I don't mean this to sound how it is probably going to sound, but the internet is no good for conveying emotions. In any case, my question is... what do you do with "only" two friends? It's just that I'm a really social person, so I like to make as many friends as I can and hang out with everyone that seems interesting. It's hard for me to imagine how I would spend my time without all those people.
I have a lot of internet friends, but I'm really not a social person IRL. I had many friends in high school. And I know many friendly people. But there's only two people that I would seriously consider sharing my secrets with or calling up to go out with.
Also, when you move 3000 miles to somewhere new and don't know anyone, it's hard to make friends when you're not in school and people from 3000 miles ago don't bother to keep in touch.
I am kind of like Q. I did not take risks in high school and I am trying to take them now. I really needed a Margo in high school, but I found XKCD in college, and it is really inspiring me to do what is fun. Damn the small insignificant consequences, but if they are really big consequences... then I'll probably still pass. Sorry, I got me a possible career in Criminal Justice and I want that more then anything.
It's damn hard to find a Margo when you need one. You've got to be your own.
I LOVE XKCD!
I am spontaneous to the point of insanity. If I decide I randomly want to wake up at 3:00 in the morning on the full moon to go outside and read, I do. I have. I have also been awoken by rain against my window and decided to go outside (I LOVE rain.) I sat there for over an hour in the middle of the night. It was an amazing feeling. Plus, I like to make other people feel like they're always a part of my craziness, I suppose it's kinda Alaska-ish... but really I just think of it as being me, I've always been like that. *shrugs*
I share Takumis feeling of being left out on peoples plans.
