Sharon Esther Spitz is a cute and very beautiful fourteen-year-old, ninth grade, high school student. With green eyes and waist-length, blonde hair, it is difficult to believe that she has what she feels is a difficult time in her life. She wears a light-blue shirt and dark-blue pants and has waist-length blonde hair, usually found with a light-blue clip in it. She has a tan skin tone, bright green eyes and also sports unusual silver braces. They sometimes cause trouble for her. In her later years, she wears dark blue jeans and a bright pink shirt with a light green necklace. She always tries her best to help others.
Social Life
A vegetarian and animal rights activist, Sharon has five pets. Two dogs, Pigger and Sampson, and three cats, Moshie, Rocky and Lawrence. Sharon wants everything a teenage girl wants: to be popular, get good grades, hang out with friends, and have a boyfriend. Sharon sometimes does get into trouble and messes up like every other teen, but she always learns from her mistakes and sets things right in the end, no matter what the situation. Despite her cuteness and beauty, Sharon is also known to be a clumsy, ditzy girl and would usually end up embarrassing herself one way or the next. Sharon's rival is Nina Harper, her old childhood friend, who attends Sharon's junior, and later senior, high school. She and Nina used to be close friends as kids, but when Nina found her beloved dolls with their heads pulled off, Nina immediately blamed Sharon for the act despite her pleas that she did not do it. Nina has done everything to make her life miserable ever since. Sharon's traits are her clumsiness, ditziness, responsibility, caring, helpfulness, and so many more good, and some bad traits about her. Sharon's family members include her father Richard, her mother Helen, and her two brothers, Adam and Josh.
Sharon's best friend is Maria Wong, and her other friends are Connor MacKenzie, Alden Jones, Brock Leighton, Dion, Marlo, and later on, Alyson Malitski. Sharon has five pets; her dogs, Pigger and Sampson, and her cats Moshie, Rocky, and Lawrence. Sharon is the middle child in her family. Sharon's favorite singers are Leena and Taylor Knight, both of whom she met in person[1][2]. She was an extra in Leena's new music video and she learned she had a lot in common with her and she also learned from Leena that being a big star isn't easy as people think. Taylor Knight was not at all who Sharon thought he was and he ended up being a guy who was full of himself did not seem to really care about her. So Sharon was glad when he canceled their date to her prom. Sharon had a huge, romantic crush on Alden early on in junior high, often finding herself struggling to form a strong and close, romantic relationship with him, even though he secretly returned her strong, romantic feelings and infatuations. They eventually become an official romantic couple when Alden ended up asking her out. The two have a good relationship for about one year when Alden ended things due to Sharon's jealousy, despite that they maintained a strong, platonic friendship. Finally, in high school, Alden realized he still had feelings for her and worked to rebuild their relationship, saying it was his mistake to end it[3]. He made the effort in making his feelings known to Sharon and soon finally told her exactly how he felt. Despite Sharon's hesitance, not wanting to risk ruining their friendship, she accepted and they got back together.
Physical Abilities
Although Sharon is innately clumsy, she is, otherwise, quite capable of very demanding, physical exertions. According to Alden, Sharon is a better dancer than Maria, as he calls her the "best dancer he knows".
Strength
|
While sparring with Maria during a kickboxing class, she exerts significant physical force in both punching and kicking.[4].
Her strongest blow lifts a large boxing bag clean off its support, tearing it in half with one punch. |
When Tess and Liane had smashed in the door to Sharon's Locker, jamming it closed, she opened it by pulling the door open with her hands.[5]
Agility
|
While learning to rollerblade, she accidentally slipped into a full 180-degree split[6]. For a normal person, this would be a crippling, painful injury, as it takes years of practice to build the required flexibility to do this move safely. Sharon's only reaction is to shift into a sitting position, which would be impossible for an average person, given that adopting this position immobilizes the hip joints due to the physical stress of being pushed beyond their limits. |
|
Sharon has high manual dexterity, able to perform complex object manipulation with no previous practice. |
Reflexes
|
Sharon can react quite quickly to sudden events, as shown when she grabbed falling boxes accidentally dropped by Dion before they could hit the floor.[7] |
Intellectual Specialties
Sharon is quite an accomplished student in both English and creative writing. Adam even says it is easy for her to win English assignment awards[8] and their mom, Helen, says that Sharon has always consistently gotten A's in English.[7] However, her grasp of science and math is particularly weak by comparison, barely scraping through with a C average.[9][10] But if she really applies herself, she is capable of excelling, since she worked out a complicated math proof in the space of an hour.[9] Sharon has a high level of skill at cooking and preparing food. Josh, in particular, is fond of her culinary creations, specifically, her oatmeal cookies. Since her father, Richard, is well versed in the culinary arts, she may have learned these skills from him. Sharon is good at driving vehicles. In just half an hour, she became a better driver than Adam, who had at least a year of practical experience. She did crash the car though, but only because she was unfamiliar with which pedals to press. Even so, she had enough skill to control the crash so nobody was injured. The car was even capable of being driven after the crash with no ill effects on its performance.

She has a preference for Butterflies as a personal motif.
