[/font][/size]personality:
bright,
julia has always been referred to as the smart one in the family. even from a young age she was labeled as an overachiever, and she always lived up to the expectations her mother and her teachers had for her. but her intelligence isn't just limited to school smarts, she's also really street savvy. she came from a one parent family, and she spent more time out and about with her friends than she did at home. which at first got her into trouble, but she did learn what was and wasn't acceptable very quickly. she's only grown smarter with age, which makes sense because she's always learning something new, which she tends to find really interesting and she's always enjoyed it.
rebellious,
julia has never really been one to follow rules, and she's fairly out spoken. she knows which buttons to push and when to get her way. she never really had much attention payed to her as a child, her mom was always busy with her older brother, and she never really cared about what julia did. so in an attempt to get her mom's attention julia would always try crazy, dangerous or even stupid things to get the attention she so desperately craved. since then she hasn't really changed she'll pretty much try anything once, and she really loves the attention she can get, plus she really hates going along with what everyone else does, she finds it boring and stupid.
daring,
as it was mentioned before julia will try at least anything once, even if it gets her in trouble. she isn't the type of girl to back down. when she was younger she was always the girl who was climbing the trees and running along with the boys, she felt like they had more fun and what they did was much more 'dangerous' than playing with dolls like the rest of the girls did. julia was never really afraid of getting hurt, or getting caught and she really enjoyed the adrenaline. she'd never back down from a dare, and she would always do what people thought she couldn't do just to prove them wrong. she enjoyed being right, and she enjoyed doing her own thing especially if she got to do it her way, and prove others wrong.
mature and independent,
maturity, for julia, came along after she got pregnant. before she found out she was pregnant she was running all over town doing god knows what with god knows who. so having baby hailey really set her straight. all of a sudden she could drop everything and go out with her friends, she could drink, party or fool around. she now realizes that she has to be more responsible to set a good example for her daughter. it wasn't an easy switch to make, but julia realized that it was an essential switch for the sake of her daughter. and along with maturity comes independence. she can't count on as many people as she would if she didn't have hailey, mostly because she really wants to show people that she can do things on her own and that she's not such a screw up, and that hailey wasn't a mistake, and that julia would do anything to make her daughter's life alright. she may live with her mom and brother, and they may help her out from time to time, but for the most part julia does everything on her own and that's how she likes it. julia's independence also comes from her many years of looking out for herself while her mom was busy with work, or getting her brother out of stuff.
outgoing,
julia's always been the outgoing girl who ran with the boys, got dirty and never stopped playing until she absolutely had to. she had enough energy to run on for a week solid without sleep, and everyone knew it. she was always ready to go. since she was a kid she isn't so energy filled plus having a baby puts a damper on energy levels a little bit considering she's always running after hailey, but she's still always ready to go, and she's still considered to be fairly outgoing.. which she loves about herself.

their outter shell
appearance:
What can you say about Julia? Everything about her seems as fragile as though she's going to break if you hold her too tight or if you grab her unexpectedly. She's about 5 foot 1 inch tall, which is definitely on the shorter side of heights but she doesn't really mind. She has a curvaceous figure, slightly more so than is usual for your typical dancers. She sports porcelain skin that isn't prone on tanning, actually it's more prone on getting burnt so guess what? A lot of sunscreen for Julia or no sun at all, just the shade. Her natural hair is colored a beautiful shade of chocolate brown which tends to look black, or a darker brown under some lights. Recently she dyed her hair a lighter shade of brown just to shake things up a little bit.
She has a more rounded face than you would expect. Her lips are full and a pretty pink, usually just left like that as she dislikes using much make-up. The one feature which stands out the most on Julia would have to be her eyes; they are a shade between grey and light blue and stand in striking contrast to her dark hair, though compliment her pale skin rather nicely. No one can look away from her eyes, they're fairly hypnotic and probably Julia's favorite feature. But they're also her tell tale feature. Her eyes are like windows to her soul and any emotion that she may be feeling can be read in her eyes. She does sometimes use an eyeliner or mascara to bring them out a bit, but Julia has never really been one to wear much make-up, she's essentially happy with the way she looks even though she isn't perfect, and she definitely doesn't look like she's popped out of a magazine.
as it was stated earlier Julia is a fairly petit girl, even though she's slightly curvy. Julia only weights about 110 lbs, which is considered to be a little unhealthy, but with a baby who's almost a year old she doesn't have too much time for herself, because she's spends most of her time and energy on her baby and school... naturally. also you can't place julia's clothing style into a category because it ranges from a wide variety of things. she'll be seen in anything from skirts to jeans and a tank and at times she even enjoys dressing up. however, she's a fashionista without even trying, she comes up with absurd clothing choices, but it always seems to work - and she doesn't know why.

history:
julia nicole reese huntington was born to janet huntington and hugh mackenzie. hugh was long gone and completely out of their lives. he had split after janet had told him she was pregnant again, and she didn't want to have an abortion. hugh, to be completely honest, he didn't want children in the first place so it kind of shocked janet that he stuck around after jacob was born. janet had a hard time getting over hugh but jacob and julia really didn't know him so they never really care. but janet has never really dated anyone since, and her kids can see that it still bothers her that hugh left without so much as a good bye when janet was just over three months pregnant.
julia was born on a sunny friday afternoon in march. march 13th to be exact, bad luck baby. almost three months too early, which scared janet more than anything else ever had. she didn't want to lose her baby. thankfully julia made it through the first night which meant she was going to make it, period. even though julia was nicknamed the 'bad luck baby' things definitely couldn't get worse, but with the birth of julia nothing but good luck followed. janet won the lottery, julia's grandparents moved to new jersey, and countless other small things happened to the family, and they were definitely in good spirits about everything that was to come.
julia was one of the guys when she grew up, and living in new jersey there were a lot of places for her to get into trouble. her and her brother were really close while they grew up and they always had the same friends and they always got into a load of trouble. but fortunately julia never got in trouble, jacob on the other hand was always in trouble, which made it hard for the pair of them to hang out with all their friends. julia was surprisingly always very popular, and she always had a ton of friends. it could've been because she was so nice or because she always stood out and always seemed to be having so much fun, but it really didn't matter she had a lot of friends and that was really all that mattered to julia.
julia was fairly well-behaved until she reached high school, then everything sort of went off the wall, and julia changed a lot. she became way more extorverted and there weren't many things she said no to... with the exception of sex. she believed sex was special and she really wanted to be in love when she had sex for the first time. but alcohol, drugs and fooling around were all open options. but all three got her into trouble her sophomore year. she was at a party with some friends, who had all left because they had 'better things to do' but julia decided it would be a great idea to stay with a bunch of people she really didn't know. needless to say it was not a smart or safe decision on julia's party but with all the alcohol julia had drunk it made sense that she really had no idea what was going on.
julia made a mistake that night and went to a room with a boy, just intending to make-out with him but he wanted more than that, and with a very drunk julia, she really couldn't do much to stop him. he did end up raping her and three months later julia found out she was pregnant. julia was devistated and didn't know if she could deal with it, but she knew she had to straighten out so she could have a healthy pregnancy, thankfully her mom helped her and six months after finding out she was having a baby she gave birth to hailey jane huntington, the love of her life. at the time she was sixteen and no just over a year later baby hailey's growing up, julia's trying to be the best mom she can, but she's finding it hard with school and her friends.. plus all those boys. but she's still in school and she's set on graduating and moving on to college. she wants hailey to be proud of her.
