    positive and mentally strong character. Because of her constant positive attitude, people become happy around her. A case of this is evident when Vanessa asks Juno how sure she is with giving her baby for adoption, and Juno responds to her with “I’m going to say I’m about a 104% sure.” Thus, Juno’s statement gives Vanessa a huge smile.
