MY LIFE

My name is Jack.I live in US in the 21st century and this is my life story.I can hardly remember about my mother.Last thing I can remember about her that she arguing with my father,whom she was extremely angry with.They were both doing the same things with no end:shouting and throwing things to flor.I tried hard not to hear them.However,there was such a terrible noise that could be heard from the other street.I said nothing not to maket hem angrier.I wasnt sure if it was about me so I prefered tos tay in my room and hold stil.Then I went outside to have a look.I saw my mother taking her bag and putting her coat on.She looked at me and I looked at her.Then I saw a teardrop running down from her cheek.That was the last time I saw my mother.

My father wasn’t a very good man indeed.He didn’t like me a lot and he was regretful that he had a son.After my mom vanished,he came home once in a week.He put a tiny amount of money on the dinner table every Monday.I lived like that for two years.However,he started coming home once a fortnight.He wasn’t working,I knew it.I didn’t care at all.One day I left home.He didnt call me or tried to find me.It was like he was waiting for me to die ar go away or something like that.

Anyway,I was 17 when I left home.I found a job in a restaurant.I didnt earn a lot but you know it was enough to survive.I had no aim.However,I realized what my dream job was and how valuable life was when I passed the main building of a company which was the best in computer business.I had always wanted to work with computers maybe it was bevause there was no one whom I could want a computer from.I wanted to work there a lot.At that moment it was my only aim.However,I learnt that to work in that company you should know at least three languages and must have graduated from a good university.So I decided to win a place at a university and learn Spanish and German.I studied a lot.I mean really a lot.After I came back from my part-time job I studied until midnight.I slept for 5 hours, which was terrible for human body but I didnt care at all because I had to work a lot if I wanted not to die as a poor,loser and an unsuccesfull man.I learnt all the boks by heart.I took the exam and I entered the world’s best university with a scholarship.I did a great job there and learnt three more languages.Then I went to the company to get the job.So I did.Iput my resume on the table,looked them in the eye and they understood how hardworking I was.I bought my first computer.After that a house and a nice car.In the company I never stopped working and complained.The director of the company saw that and after 5 years since I started to work in the company I became the manager of the whole place.

In my neighbourhood everyone told met hat I was going to be a poor man,drink a lot and be useless like my father.However,I didnt.I became one of the whealtiest men in the world.When I look at my pas I see just one man doing all of these.Myself.I had no help,no support,no family,no Money.I was alone but I won.When you look at my life you can say this “There is nothing you can’t do,if you want something very much.”
