Kelebek wasn't the star pupil apart from in one lesson. Divination. She was always mindful about the future and still is. She took school seriously and tried hard in all of her lessons but was always more pleased to talk gossip with other girls her age. She always did her homework but most of the time, not very well. She wasn't Squib-like, it was just she was a bit slow when it came to learning.
She often found getting along with people rather easy but that was only if they weren't a bit scared of Kelebek just turning up in front of them. She was always a bit vain but not so much that she would walk around checking her reflection in every mirror. It was a mirror or two per day. She is rather charming and not afraid of going up to someone. Sometimes this can lead to people being annoyed by her.

History:
Kelebek was born in Ankara, Turkey to her two Turkish parents. She grew up until she was five in Ankara. She lived in Istanbul for six months before leaving for the UK. The family lived in Liverpool but when Kelebek's two aunts moved to London, they moved as well. This all happened before she was seven. By the time she was seven, she started showing signs of magic. One story that her mother wouldn't shut up about was the time when she accidentally singed off her cousin Deniz's eyebrows.
She got her letter from Hogwarts on her 11th birthday. Her parents were relieved when she got the letter because they were worried that she was going to have to move back to Turkey to live with her grandmother and go to a Turkish witchcraft school. She started Hogwarts and found a lot of it quite hard. She passed most of her OWLS and NEWTS with quite low marks apart from Divination. She passed her OWL with an O and her NEWT with an EE.
She graduated and went on a tour of the world to learn more about magic. She went through Europe first then Asia which took her a year. She then went to live in Turkey for a few years. She stayed in Turkey for two years. By now she was twenty and decided to go back to the UK and her parents and cousins. She went job-hunting but was unsuccessful. She then decided to just stay at home and learn more house-hold spells. She is still looking for a job.
Anything else? She can speak Turkish and English. And wants a job at the Ministry more than anything else.
RP Sample (this isn't my first post)
Kelebek stepped inside the boundaries of Hogsmeade for what seemed the first time. When she had gone in the Third Year, it had looked different. She stared around for a minute then decided to go shopping.She first went to the robes shop.
She got in and went up to the counter. While she waited, she took in her surroundings. There were lots of pre-made robes hanging up in the most beautiful colors. When someone finally came out to serve her, Kelebek followed while whistling a tune she had picked up on her travels. It was from Russia and it was quite catchy. She stood on a stool like the shop assistant gestured. Kelebek had her measurements done then chose the colors, looks and all of that what-not.
When she left Hogsmeade altogether, she had sent a large owl to Turkey to let her grandmother she was safely in England. She had also raided Honeydukes for her young cousins. She had brought a broom for her eighteen year old cousin. She had also brought the robes she needed. She left Hogsmeade and Apparated back to London...
