• goals,
1. Carl's always trying to loosen up and be more spontaneous, especially for Emma's sake. So he'd like really just let himself go with the flow. 2. Marry Emma Pillsbury. Though he's not one to rush into a decision like this, he's at a stable place in his life, and he's crazy about her :] 3. Electric toothbrushes that play music while kids brush are certainly a way to inspire good gentle hygiene, but Carl hopes to come up with an invention/technique that will truly inspire kids/teens to take better care of their teeth
• fears,
1. Carl puts on an air of confidence and security, but beneath the surface he's quite self-conscious and has fear of rejection. 2. Carl's also afraid that Emma will leave him for Will, though he keeps this to himself as well. 3. Carl has a minor fear—more of a dislike/aversion—of germs and messes, not unlike our favorite guidance counselor :]
• first impression,
Carl is certainly not shy, and even if he were feeling secure, he wouldn't let anyone know it. Carl knows what he wants, and he lets other people know he's confident and sure in his decisions by the way he acts. Sometimes, he comes off as slightly pompous, but his intentions are always good. He's a fun guy to be around, because he's always smiling and he always has an optimistic view toward situations. People are generally at ease in his presence because of his easygoing nature and his unintentional charisma.
• overall,
Beneath his unabashed confidence, Carl has his own insecurities, but he's never been one to go around whining or allowing his weaknesses to show. Carl always sees the cup as half full, and it's rare that you won't see him smiling. He's genuine is his interactions with others, and he's always looking for ways to help people and bring joy into their lives. Carl is very mature, and though he is not afraid to express his opinions, he always does it in a very respectful and fair manner. He's a practical guy, though he's not afraid to let loose from time to time and embrace the opportunities around him.
Carl has a very open mind, and he makes people at ease (perhaps with the exception of Will :P). It makes him very good at his job, because he's very open and friendly toward his patients—a favorite among the children especially; he's always joking with them and easing the tension that always comes with visiting the dentist. He's the kind of guy who would enjoy a good action movie and a night out with the guys, but he's also not opposed to a romantic night, snuggling on the couch with her girlfriend with a corny chick flick. Carl's always loyal and sincere, and though not one to show his weaknesses, he is typically an open book. Sometimes he may be confident to the point where he seems slightly haughty, but he certainly doesn't mean to come off that way. Because of his loyalty, he comes off as slightly possessive at times, but again, his intentions are always sincere. He's encouraging, charismatic, and selfless—all attributes he ends up displaying without even really trying. Carl, all in all, is a fun and lovable guy.
to sir, with love

• family,
Carl currently lives on his own in a sizable condo, but growing up he lived with his two parents, Rhonda and Carl Howell Senior (now both 65 and retired). Carl does not have any siblings, and he is allergic to cats, dogs, and most furry animals, so he never had any pets, though he does have a tank full of fish at his dental office.
• hometown,
Carl was born and raised in Lima, Ohio.
• current town,
Lima
• overall,
Carl Howell was born to Rhonda and Carl Howell Senior, named after his father. His father was a dentist, in charge of his own small practice, and his mother was his secretary. They were always a very traditional family, and they reared Carl in the same way. It was always expected for Carl to grow up and take over his father's dental practice, and Carl never thought to argue.
His mother was always anally neat in every aspect of taking care of the house and raising her child. A lot of her habits and values on cleanliness rubbed off on Carl, and growing up, he could've easily been described as OCD or even slightly mysophobic. Because of his structured life and need for order and cleanliness, Carl shied away from sports and found a passion in musical theatre instead. This was always a just hobby for him, despite his obvious talent, and he tended to focus more on grades and school work and maintaining his structured life style than ever considering pursing a career in music.
In high school, despite his devotions to his studies, Carl was always a confident, popular guy without ever trying. He was always best known for his leads in the school musicals, and he faithfully dated his girlfriend, Catherine, from his sophomore year until halfway through his senior year, despite all the other girls that were clearly interested in him.
Without even questioning, Carl attended the same college as his father and took over the dental practice, just as planned. He continued to date his college girlfriend, Stacey, and proposed to her when he was twenty six. Wedding plans were in full swing when he discovered that Stacey was cheating on him, a terrible blow to the boy who was always so confident. Carl teetered on the edge of depression for the next few years, constantly anxious, and only taking comfort in the rigid structure of his life. It was a dark time in Carl's life, and he took it much harder than most people would've because of his complete loyalty to Stacey, so it was hard for him to cope with her not feeling the same way.
When he was thirty, Emma moved to Lima and began coming to his office. She was a patient who intrigued him from the start, shy, a little quirky, and beautiful, and he found himself drawn to the patient who came four times a year for a check up instead of the typical two. He was never hesitant to flirt with her, though he never pushed her farther than she felt comfortable. They formed a comfortable friendship, nothing more, though Carl always felt more for the endearing red head. Besides his respect for Emma, he did not push because of underlying fear of rejection after what had happened with Stacey.
Regardless, the brief happiness Emma managed to bring into his life served as a much needed-pick-me up for Carl. He began to live again, embracing life and one against viewing situations with an optimistic view. He expanded his dental practice, merging offices with Mercedes' parents. He was living the life his parents had always envisioned for him, but he was making it his own, and Carl never regretted how his life had turned out. In truly discovering himself, he began to let go of his structured life more and more, finding it easier to be spontaneous and allowing himself to let go while still keeping the values that mattered to him most.
For two years, he kept the hope of eventually dating Emma as motivation and encouragement that he did have a second chance, and that chance came one afternoon when the usually put-together-Emma broke down sobbing in his office. She was hesitant at first, but she soon opened up to Carl about her troubles with Will, the Spanish teacher her school, and he took the opportunity to become the strong, mature, understanding man in her life when she needed one. They soon began to date, and since then Carl has been falling more and more in love and helping Emma slowly overcome her struggles the way he has.

• if you were stuck on an island, what are three things you'd have with you and why?
“Hmmm...let me think about this for a minute. Well, of course I'd choose my girlfriend, Emma Pillsbury. Out of anyone in my life, she makes me happiest. She's smart, funny, and always a joy to be around. With her by my side, I wouldn't even mind being stuck on an island. Next, I'd have to choose my chevy corvette. Now I know this sounds arrogant of me, but I wouldn't merely want it for materialistic reasons. This car is a symbol of my what my life now means to me—embracing spontaneity and not holding back when it comes to living my life. And lastly, I'd bring my tooth brush—always need to keep my smile clean.”
• what are your feelings on other characters on this site?
“First off, the kids—besides needing to brush better, I really do think the New Direction kids are great. I'm always a supporter of expressing yourself through music, and I think all these kids really do have so much potential.
I'm so grateful of having the pleasure of calling the wonderful Emma Pillsbury my girlfriend. And she truly is completely wonderful—she's smart, funny, pretty and just a please to be around. I know she struggles a lot with her insecurities, but I admire her for always being willing to try new things, even if it's just in small steps. She's always friendly and always so genuine, and she's fantastic with the kids at McKinley.
Will Schuester seems like a he really is good guy, despite how confused he is right now. And I do feel bad for the guy, but I'd appreciate it if he backed off from Emma and truly gave her the chance to flourish in the relationship she's in with me right now. I know Emma has every right to choose, and I'm by no means going to stop her from picking Will if he's the one who's going to make her happy, but I'd appreciate it if Will respected her and myself in the same way.”
• what are your favorite things to do in your spare time?
“I've always enjoyed singing, and I used to be quite involved in theatre and chorus when I was in high school. From time to time, I still do participate in a community musical, or I volunteer at the children's theatre in downtown Lima to help kids reach their full potential.
I always enjoy spending time with Emma, whether it be a romantic night out, an evening in watching a movie, or something as mundane as a trip to the grocery store. I enjoy coming up with ways to help push her out of her comfort zone without overwhelming her, and in the process, I find myself being more spontaneous and happy as well.”
