Attitude and persona
While somewhat detached in matters of society, Chapin is a passionate person in matters that are of significance to her. She is highly philosophical and a "thinker" (for use of cliche), and while not afraid to express her views, usually keeps them to himself for her own good.
When asked to comment upon a particular belief, Chapin does so hesitantly, mostly because her peers are not receptive to her opinions.
Chapin has a satirical, quick-witted (though often antisocial) comportment and conducts herself somewhat extrovertedly in suitable company, though is more of an introvert in the company of strangers and newcomers. She is often shrewd and calculating, especially in others' characters. She is also noted for her odd sense of humor and appreciation of wordplay.

Reading and books
Chapin has been an avid reader since a young age, starting off with favorites Dr. Seuss and Roald Dahl. Despite her vivid imagination and interest in fiction, Chapin always had an intense passion for non-fiction, her favorite of which were psychology books, math textbooks, and college-level law books. In her years she has read all of the Harry Potter series as well as some books of The Chronicles of Narnia series. In her adolescent years she has taken to reading numerous books by Carolyn Mackler, Lynne Truss, and Stanley Kiesel, as well as numerous film and play scripts. She is also the owner of two dictionaries and one thesaurus, books she has collected since age 10. Indeed, Chapin has an insatiable interest in the usage of the English language, and seeks to improve it by becoming an editor.
Physical pursuits
Chapin has been interested in biking for many years. As a youngster she pursued roller-skating and swimming passionately. Due to her family's refusal to her request of joining the local JCC, she does not go swimming regularly, instead swimming whenever she can.
Multimedia interests
Chapin has been an avid gamer since a young age, starting with the Myst series she played on the PC. Some of her all-time favorites include 9: The Last Resort (PC), Chuzzle (PC), and Bookworm (PC).
Chapin' taste in music has always been Rock and other alternative musics, much of it heard on her parents' records; she has been a hater of most, indeed almost all, Rap music for her entire life. Some all time favorites include Oingo Boingo, Danny Elfman, Voltaire, Franz Ferdinand, and Keren Ann, with other 80's, 90's, and current bands featuring prominently amongst her usual listening.

Chapin refuses to say that she “suffers” from ADHD and depression, instead claiming that depression is her muse. Indeed, some of her finest works have been written during low points in her life.
Personal Life
Since her first relationship with Max Kushinsky ended, Chapin is currently dating Shaul Prigot. She generally refuses to comment on the physical nature of her relationship, although she has been known to confide in close friends about her personal matters.
