Life has been thought for Joan, she lost her mum and dad when she was 10 and sadly lost her only aunt when she was aging 15. She has had to take care of herself since then, doing menial jobs and taking shifts whenever she could to support her self. Most nights she slept in the subway and took baths at public bathrooms. On the good days she find herself able to sleep in one abandoned bus at one of the old parks not too far from her neighborhood. It wasn't easy but she survived..
One thing about Joan was since she developed the interest to read, she always loved reading and always loved to learn new things. She was also hardworking as well and never slakced nor complained due to her situation. She disliked giving excuses and always looks forward to better days.
Now at the age of 26, Joan having finished from college two years back with a banging degree got an internship at one of the most prestigious publishing firms in the city and even became the highest paid intern in the history of her company, living in a nice comfortable apartment. You could say all her hardwork paid off eventually and shes living her best life but she remembers everyday that while her parents were alive, they always encouraged her and believed in her, now she's made them proud.
