I think she will stay around a pretty long time. She is a cook, and the cook always does pretty well. (look at last season, Jun won) She looks like she is going to be the mom figure in the house. She seems fit, I can we see her teaching the yearly exercise class this season.

I'm liking her. And you're right AIWANNABE, the cook always stays awhile.

2ctheworld · 06-30-2004, 01:53 PM

If she keeps the fellas' bellies full she will make it far!

**fluff** · 06-30-2004, 01:58 PM

Agree about the cook staying, she has some competition for that role from Marvin though.

She has a really nice figure and I think she seems the obvious person to take on the Danielle role of house exercise instructor.

Unless her personality is just grating, I can see her going far. "On paper" she appears fairly grounded, good-looking with an important skill for BB. I think I will like her a lot.

***John*** · 06-30-2004, 02:55 PM

Other than being 30 with streaky hair, she seems nice.

LG. · 06-30-2004, 03:09 PM

I wonder what her twin sister is named, because Adria is rather unusal, unless she shortened it herself . . . just like she did her own highlights. Yikes.

**Amanda** · 06-30-2004, 03:12 PM

Sigh. I'm going to have to rethink my favorable impression of streaked hair, aren't I?

Anyway, this chick seems okay. Kind of forgettable, but nice enough.
