║ Appearance ║Alana is of average height, (proudly) standing at 5'5" and being the tallest female in her family. Lana has shoulder length dark brown hair that is naturally curly. She has dark brown eyes that are easily readable, and if what she's feeling is not obvious through her eyes: look at her smile. She's never seen without it. She has a dorky looking smile, and has a strange habit of biting on her fingers or touching her lips when she is deep in thought.
Unlike what her middle name suggests, Lana has no grace. Where some girls are naturally charming and can walk on thirty-inch heels ("I blame you, Lady Gaga..."), Lana can barely stand straight with sneakers without tripping over an ant. Lana's dressing style is simple and cheap. She prefers the comfort of an old worn sweater over the impracticality of a short skirt in the middle of peak winter.
║ Personality ║ The Positive:
- Easily excitable
- Friendly
- Driven
The Negative:
- Pushy
- Doesn't take no for an answer
- Nosy
What You See:
Have you ever imagined what it would be like if the Energizer bunny had about thirty shots of energy drinks and a cup load of sugar on top of it? Alana Williams has about the same level of energy in the form of excitement as that monstrocity. At first, Alana Williams seems to be just another energetic child on a sugar rush with high hopes. Alana doesn't go out of her way to command the attention of a room, but Alana is by no means a shy person. She is very talkative, and will enjoy having just a simple conversation with anybody that is willing to listen or talk in return. Her energised talkative nature might not work with others, but Lana has yet to learn that not everyone will like her, and as such will keep pushing for a conversation if she feels like it's going somewhere.
Lana doesn't get bored very easily, but she is guilty of working in a rush. It means she can be disorganised, and a tad bit spacey because she's thinking of all the work piling back up again for her to complete.
What I Know:
There is nothing that doesn't excite Lana. Lana always finds a way to see a boring old object in a whole new light. Her imagination holds no limits, and as such, she sees the world in an entirely new perspective. She is highly passionate about her love for exploration and writing, so it's no surprise that Alana has decided to merge her two loves into an ideal dream career. She's highly dedicated to becoming a travelling journalist, and even though she knows the money will not be enough to sustain her, she has prepared for that by saving up what ever money she could get from her youtube videos and pocket money.
"I am grateful to journalism for waking me up to the realities of the world." - Eduardo Galeano

║ Brief History ║The Williams family a large family. Very lively, sure, but crowded too. James and Hanna Williams were high school sweethearts and got married straight after leaving high school, having eloped together from their small home town in Idaho despite their parents' disapproval. The young couple believed that if they could prove they were a perfect fit by surviving together on their own, their parents would accept them. And so, James and Hanna settled down in Westworth, Colorado. It wasn't long before Hanna got pregnant with her first child at the tender age of nineteen. Hanna gave birth to the eldest of the Williams clan: Henry Williams. Trying to make ends meet, the young father took up as many jobs as he could while his wife sturggled to take care of their first born on their own. It took a while, but gradually the two learnt to deal with their children and things started to settle down once more.
At least until Hanna found out she was pregnant with her second child.
This time money wasn't as much of an issue. The parents had developed a habit of saving money, so they were still able to take care of their daughter, Christina Williams. Alana was their third child, their second daughter. By the time Alana was born, James and Hanna were too busy taking care of their three children to check back up on their parents back in Idaho, so the Williams family became just them: James, Hanna, Henry, Christina and Alana.
The birth of twins Valerie and Nolan weren't as much of a surprise to the Williams family. The twins were born three years after Alana, and proved to be quite a handful to Hanna. Hanna, who loved doting on her children, was finally satisfied with taking care of her five children and had even started up her own website tutoring Maths and Science, two of Hanna's strongest subjects. The extra money helped the parents with the bills and left just enough for the young family to enjoy an occasional meal out in the diner.
Despite growing up in the midst of all that chaos that comes with a large, closely knit family, Alana felt well loved. Yes, she competed for her parents' attention with her four other siblings, but it was all good in the end. Where her older siblings struggled in school, Alana did fairly well - not the best, but neither did she do poorly. She was in the middle; just like in her family.
║ Extra Curricular Activities & Sports ║Girls' basketball team mainly, but trying to gather the people to join her own little writers' club. First on her list? Rachel.
║ Reputation ║Alana is mainly known because of her many siblings. People know of her family, maybe because they're colleagues or were classmates with one of the Williams children. But Alana herself is known as the crack energizer bunny that also likes to talk about new places in her youtube vlogs.
║ Best subjects, Worst subjects ║English & Creative Writing were obviously Lana's best subjects. She sucks at History though.
║ Extra information ║MR VANDERFIELD IS THE BEST TEACHER AND YOU CAN FIGHT LANA IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE.
