ellen’s life part 2
Ellen worked hard. She felt she’s late in starting to build a real life. She’s 22 years old with barely nothing to start with and literally proceeding slow towards achieving a goal that seemed too big. Can she do it? Shel’ll try.
Elllen earned 5,000 pesos a month as an internet cafe attendant. Not much, but she can’t have a higher-paying job because she only finished a two-year computer programming course with just a passing grade. Saturdays and Sundays Ellen worked as a photocopier operator. She got 150 per day.
Ellen worked for 20 years. Did odd jobs. Spent less on food and lesser on clothing and other accessories. Bu afttter 20 years of hard labor, Ellen only has 10,000 pesos in the bank. Most of her money went to hospitall bills.
Now, Ellen is still working. At 42, she mans a little shop in the corner. The end.
Some people are like Ellen. They dream big and would do anything to achieve that dream. But sometimes, like Ellen’ s, big opportunities don’t come their way however much they would want to attract them. Sad, but that’s their reality. It bites and it sucks. ###
ellen’s life part 1 (a shortcut)
Ellen was a woman of ambition. She wanted to be rich and famous, travel the world, luxuriate in the fancy things that money and influence can buy. She didn’t marry so she could focus on these goals. She outlined these twenty years ago. She’s 42 now.
Ellen was a product of an illicit affair between her dancer-mother and a married club bouncer. At one point, they tried aborting her. Fetus Ellen held on to her mother’s uterus and refused to come out even after four attempts at poisoning her with ulcer medicines. She fought for her life and emerged victorious – at least, from her parents’ murderous instinct.
Ellen was born prematurely, extremely jaundiced and so small – the size of a 1-liter coke bottle. She was deposited at the hospital nursery for one week before she got to feel her mother’s taut nipple. The milk came in drips.
Ellen grew up physically weak. Silent, inactive Ellen stayed in a corner away from other children. she played little, cried often. Her nose dripped and her cough disturbed her sleep.
Ellen survived school. survived the age of crushes and proms and found herself in the environ of supposedly adult people. That’s when she vowed to change her life, put more strength to her osteoporosis-invaded bones, pump up her courage to face a brutal world….( to be continued) ###
