Biography
Crystal Yang is born and raised in Portland. She has two older siblings who are 8+ years older than her: Cassandra Yang and Michael Yang.
Her entire family is all over the world: Cassie and Michael have their own lives and families in other parts of the country while her parents moved back to China to take care of her extended family. Crystal decided to stay in Portland to pursue her education and also, she really doesn’t have anywhere else to go and doesn’t really plan on leaving Portland anytime soon.
Crystal is someone who is very artistic. She currently attends school at the Pacific Northwest College of Art where she’s majoring in illustration. Ideally, she would love her art to be published into a comic or a children’s book, but as of now, she’s just taking commissions on Tumblr or just going out into the city and sketching what’s in front of her
Speaking of Tumblr and her being artistic, everything she owns, from her apartment decorations to the clothes she wears, looks like it’s straight out of an aesthetic Tumblr moodboard. Her small one bedroom apartment in Richmond is littered with cute little trinkets and has really nice mood lighting, everyone is always so impressed when they visit her place.
To support herself, she also works as a floor guard at her local rollerskating rink where she’s in charge of watching over the skaters in the rink, making sure everyone’s following the rules and that one one gets hurt.
She’s a lesbian! She knew she liked girls at an early age and she really didn’t have any issues telling everyone because she grew up in a pretty open-minded environment
She has a cat named Bao who she loves with her entire heart. He used to be a stray who would follow her home and be so affectionate towards her, once she found out he had no chip, she took him in and now they’re a cute little family!
Personality
Living alone since 18 and not achieving the things that your younger self set out for you kinda makes her a little disillusioned with life. Most of the days just end up blurring into one another and she’s just looking to make it through the day.
Because of this, she can be pretty aloof and cynical, or just incredibly spaced out.
Despite this, she’s actually a great person to be around! If you happen to befriend her, you can expect some witty and hilarious commentary about the things she sees on a daily basis (especially considering how weird Portland is).
She loves Internet memes and shitposts and won’t be above spamming you with them lol
The easiest way to her heart is through food. She may only be 5′2″ but she can inhale so much food
She’s also a lowkey stoner. She doesn’t really mention it, but she does love smoking a bowl and walking around Downtown or the Northwest District. She thinks it’s amusing that her birthday is on 4/20
She channels her stress by dying her hair
