Personality>> When Adana knows you well that's when you really see Adana's true personality. She enjoys being a goofball with her friends(that includes her animal friends too)and making the most out of their time together. Adana has a fierce drive of determination imbedded in her that is constantly driving her own to her goals. She also is super loyal and a kind listener. She doesn't say much but she is great at listening to people no matter if they are boasting or sobbing, and when she does have something to say it is always very meaningful and has been thought through a lot. Adana is also super athletic so a great way to make friends with her is to show an interest in sports or maybe join her in a run or challenge her to some basketball. Now when Adana doesn't know you she is much different. She is very shy and hesitate around you. You have done extremely well to get a single word out of her if you attempted to start a discussion with her by you talking first. Although she is usually very even-tempered and it takes a lot to get Adana angry once you get her mad she is very mad and everyone is soon to know it.

Fears>>- Not managing to make a single human friend at Blue Ridge

- letting people down is a huge fear of Adana's. She hates it when she lets someone down and always beats herself up over it.
Hopes>> Adana dreams of becoming an Olympic Cross Country Skier but she knows that's most likely just a dream.
Adana may be different from a lot of the other students who wish for a future carer around horses while Adana wishes to become an Athletic Therapist then a Physiotherapist. Now she has thought of possibly being the physiotherapist for an equestrian team.
Secrets>>- She never tells anyone how she got her knee scared in fear someone will blame her horse and say he is too dangerous for her to have or even to keep at Blue Ridge.
Appearance>> Adana is 5 foot 2 and probably done growing. She is quiet skinny weighing only 94 pounds with all of it being either muscle mass or bone mass pretty much. She has long legs built for endurance. She has straight dark brown hair and eyes that change colour depending on her surroundings though they are usually hazel with a distinct orange circle surrounding the pupil. She has very large wide feet that cause her to always need special shoes so her feet aren't squished. It's rare for a smile to not be apron her face, her hair in a pony tail, and either a ball or a horse at her side.
Markings>>Adana has a very noticeable scar on her right knee. It covers most of the front of her knee and in the deepest area of her scarred wound it still has a purple tinge from not healing completely properly. The scar does not imped her movements.
Medical History>>Has had the normal colds and flues. She is intolerant to a protein in milk (no she's not lactose intolerant) so she drinks almond milk. She can have some cows milk when its baked or mixed in things but gets a server stomach ache if she had too much. Although sometimes Adana decided ice cream is worth the stomach ache after. She had to get her knee pretty much put back together but now it works fine though gets swore with over usage.
Full History>>Adana has grown up all her life on a farm in northern Alberta, Canada where she lived with her mom, dad, 3 sisters, a brother, and many animals. She grew up in a Christian home and has taken the faith on as her own. Her life has always revolved around her faith, family, animals, and sports in that order. She got into horses at the age of 8 so she received her first "Horse" as a test to see if she really would stick with it enough to get a real horse. Her first "horse" was Ace a brown donkey. She absolutely adored Ace. They did everything together. She even learned to ride him and even jump over low logs. When Adana was 10 Ace became sick and was diagnosed with cancer. He soon passed leaving Adana heart-broken for she loved that donkey so deeply. Her parents asked her if she thought she was ready for a foal. Adana thought for a while about it but finally decided yes she was ready. She would always remember Ace but she knew she better move on. Along came the black and white colt who bounded with energy. The two bonded quickly and Adana trained her colt almost all by herself with a little help from her dad. She never had formal lessons. Instead Adana and her now gelding she named Oreo learned together by trial and error.
Then came the accident. One day while practising on their home-made cross-country course Oreo was startled by a fox the family German Shorthaired Pointer was chasing. Adana got knocked off and her panicked horse stomped on Adana's knee causing great damage. The family knows the accident was no ones fault but Adana worries someone might blame Oreo so she doesn't speak of the accident to anyone but Oreo.
Adana's parents heard of Blue Ridge and knew Adana would love it there and get some great experience. Adana was hesitant of the idea at first for she would be leaving all she knew and her beloved sports teams but she was reminded that she would be home for Christmas when the major CC ski events were held and there was always summer basketball and CC running so she leapt on the chance with uncertainly but excitedly. So off she now goes on a very long road trip with her dad, Oreo, and Giecko.
Pet Name>> Giecko
Registered Name>>
Age>> 5 years
Sex>> Male
Species>> Gecko
Breed>> Leopard Gecko
Registry>>
Personality>>Giecko is a pretty goofy and unique lizard. Leopard Geckos live naturally in the desert and don't climb much. Giecko loves to climb up high and then think he can jump back down. He can't jump. So if he's not caught he falls on his nose, shakes it off, and heads back up again soon to "jump" back down. He is very calm and enjoys riding around on Adana's shoulder. Well he is very calm until he's not. Sometimes Giecko can get very excited especially while hunting. His tail first starts to wag then his rear end and soon his whole body seems to wag as he gets ready to catch his prey or sees that he is going to sun bath outside in his home-made carrier.
History>>Giecko was originally named Jack and lived as a class pet for much of his first two years until he was no longer wanted by the teacher and donated to a pet store. In came Adana still saddened by the loss of a very special and unique guinea pig that had recently passed of old age. She couldn't go look at the guinea pigs and had decided earlier her next pet wasn't going to be another guinea pig. She really liked the ferret and though she had found the right next pet until the larger than normal leopard gecko was placed into her hands and it quickly climbed up on to her shoulder where it refused to move from. Adana never spoke a word the whole time but her mom knew Adana had found her new special friend.
