Tanks, light tops, shorts and sneakers dominate her wardrobe, with a small part of it dedicated to her work attire, which she'll rip off of herself almost as soon as she's done work. Fashion is not at the forefront of her mind when it comes to things to keep up on; she'd only go out of her way to visit the mall or an outlet store if someone makes her self-conscious about the fact that she might be a little behind the times or she has spilled wine on herself one too many times. Her hair is something of a pride piece. She'd never work on her car the same day as an important date or during the week so that she can be perfectly presentable publicly.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>A sweetheart is putting it simply for Juliana. Time spent on negative emotions is time wasted for her; she'll often just walk away from situations that are getting her down if it is at all possible. Her upbringing has shaped her into the person she is in that she always had someone there for her and she has promised herself that she will try and be that person to who she can, giving her a very 'give-and-give' mentality to life. She has no real dreams of big houses, families and lawns, instead loving the idea of being surrounded by the friends she has.<br/><br/>That's how she is with those she cares for, anyway. Almost as if there's a switch, Juliana can be rather cold toward people she doesn't know or care to know. At work she's rather blunt in order to get through her day to go home to her friends and car. Another aspect of Juliana that can bring out the bad side of her personality is when she or those she loves feels threatened. Anywhere, though especially races, where trash talk and empty threats are tossed around, Jules can get quite catty.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Juliana grew up in Tampa, being raised by a young, single, Chinese father thanks to an equally young, American and hopefully now miserable mother. Her father was always full of love and praise for his little girl, giving everything he could to her up until she was ready to go out on her own. Life wasn't easy by any means and she understood that it was all thanks to her father that she got what she needed. It was a comfortable upbringing in one of the less extravagant neighbourhoods in Tampa but Juliana never once wished for anything different.<br/><br/>Having a rather liberal parent, the young Juliana was able to walk about the world and make and learn from her mistakes. There were the occasional seedy group of characters she associated herself with, the 'bad boy' boyfriend, the late nights spent at the wrong place at the wrong time but Juliana turned away from those things at the slightest hint of disapproval from her father. She was a little too honest with him at times but it never hurt their relationship. They remained fairly close up until Juliana finished high school and her father took the chance to work abroad to perhaps put his daughter through college. The decision was made easy for him to leave with her insisting that he go and enjoy himself for once.<br/><br/>Living alone (but hardly feeling abandoned) since she was eighteen, Juliana was in little rush to get her life in order. She rented out a small apartment, paid her bills with money left for her as well as cash from working in retail in the mall for a few years. It was in this time that she dipped her feet into the pool of random hobbies to keep herself occupied. There were a few constants in this time, such as keeping fit and going out to parties and clubs through less than reputable avenues. She dabbled in other things like knitting before street racing became a very real option for her. There was no real interest in cars or going at high speeds until she heard the sounds of it late at night. Occasionally, when she went out, there would be these guys loitering around by their expensive cars to get some attention and perhaps get lucky. At first it was all silly but one night she fancied one such guy and it was love at first race.<br/><br/>What started out as a fascination turned into a bit of an obsession. The rush, the feel, everything about going significantly faster than you should be going while leaving baffled traffic in your wake quite literally turned Juliana on. No, she wouldn't just go at herself whenever she was in a fast car but it piqued her interest more than any of her other silly hobbies. Juliana's journey in underground street racing began as eye-candy; she was one of those girls who just seemed to linger about at the start of races, looking a little dim-witted while her boyfriend talked about his car to anyone who looked mildly interested. She was one of those girls at first glance, anyway. The young woman often walked around and asked rather annoying questions herself, truly immersing herself into this new culture. Her first lesson was that it's not a cheap hobby by any means, so she started to save up and dedicate more of her time to working, which eventually turned into her picking up a teller role at a bank. As she went to more races, winning some, losing more, she became familiar with some of the faces in the circuit. As funds became tighter with more money being tossed into her car, there was very little reason for her to say no to the chance to live with a bunch of other amateur racers in the name of cost efficiency.<br/><br/><strong>Current Situation:</strong>Juliana has recently picked up a full-time position at the local Bank of America branch. It's hardly lucrative but it keeps her busy and helps pay for her new, expensive hobby. She thoroughly enjoys the fact that she is now living with several like-minded people and will do everything in her power to make sure that everyone is as happy about it as she is.<br/><br/><strong>Relationships:</strong><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Star Freyman</div><div class="spoiler_body">Star represents Juliana's 'in' amongst the team, along with Jason. <br/><br/>Juliana had always been fond of Star. They have never gotten very deep into their friendship just yet but given that they live in the same room at the same house, they're getting to know each other pretty quick. Juliana, at the very least, knows what not to do in order to keep her roommate happy about their living situation. Julie doesn't quite walk on egg shells around Star but she's seen the girl all riled up at least once or twice to know that she doesn't want to be at the center of it. </div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Blake Richardson</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake is something of an enigma to Juliana. They haven't really spent a whole lot of time together as their schedules usually conflicted, save for races or downtime at the house and even then they were never really alone together to strike up conversation. Given Star's judgement of character, as she was the one that invited Blake to live with them all, Juliana can only assume that the raven haired girl is pretty awesome.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Demi Etherson</div><div class="spoiler_body">Juliana hasn't really had the time to make a fair assessment of Demi. Her first impression of the younger woman was that she was absolutely stunning; someone who could really work a crowd if she truly desired. Given the glances that she gives some of the other housemates, she may have already done some work!</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Jason Sullivan</div><div class="spoiler_body">Jason represents Juliana's 'in' amongst the team, along with Star. She had noticed the two at a couple of races and admired their enthusiasm. They seemed more real to her than any of the other racers, which made the decision to talk to them every once in a while an easy one. Further down the road (no pun intended), they came to Juliana with the idea of living together in a house to make life a little bit easier financially as well pool their resources for racing. Another easy decision, as she was on her own in a tiny apartment.<br/><br/>To Julie, Jason seems to be one of those guys that means well but doesn't exactly know how to get there. Every situation seems black and white to him and he reacts with little care in the world or with the force of a great typhoon. If there was anything that she wanted to do for him, it would be calming his temperament. </div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Adriano Guillermo</div><div class="spoiler_body">Adriano is another one of those characters she met at a race that intrigued her. They had met when Juliana was still fairly new to the racing scene when she was more of an observer than someone who took part. Finding Adriano more on the attractive side, Julie would sometimes find excuses to go talk to him, asking him dumb questions about his car when he started driving as well. Occasionally they would race each other, which ended poorly for the both of them but the two managed to laugh about it and bond. Soon enough, the two somehow managed to live in the same house together in the name of building a racing team. If neither of them are doing much of anything in the house, they always managed to find each other and hang out.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Clint Shaw</div><div class="spoiler_body">Clint is the cowboy and always will be the cowboy to Juliana. His accent makes her laugh no matter what he says. She first met him when he did some body work on her car, mostly because she was lazy, partly because she didn't want to get too dirty. As if it were destiny, the two moved in together in the team house not long after their first encounter, where Clint continues to help her out with her car should she need it.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Marcellus Smith</div><div class="spoiler_body">Of all the housemates, Juliana has known Marcellus for a little while longer. He was something of a personal mechanic for her, visiting him at his uncle's shop exclusively if anything more than simple service was required. He was always a big goof to her, continuously dropping lines and compliments to her as he worked on her car or even that occasional coffee date. His advances were never anything she took seriously and there aren't any plans on changing that anytime soon. </div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Mr. Muffles</div><div class="spoiler_body">Juliana's knight in shining armour when she's ever feeling down. He seems to have a sixth sense for that sort of thing and always manages to pop up right at that rare occasion that his best friend is mopey. Mr. Muffles is a cat.</div></div><br/><div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/pZMvfZD.jpg?1)</div><strong>Car:</strong>A Black, 1998 Acura Integra GSR Coupe.
