Name: Elena Ivanovska
Age: Young adult
Country & Continent: Macedonia

Macedonia is a country of mixed culture and a part of me, literally. My paternal grandfather came from Macedonia. This is one of the reasons I chose to do a sim to represent that little country. Macedonia has had great impact on my life. I'm certain of that I'm going there one day.

So, I decided to do a sim that had the same name as me, Elena. Many of my relatives has that name.

Elena is a cute girl, named after her grandfather's mother. Her grandfather, though, went through alot. He has survived a war and many horrible things. She is very proud of him.

Her grandfather lived a poor life and wanted to get out of Macedonia so he fled to Greece and was held prisoner for some time. The guards at the refugee camp made him clean up torturing chambers. He had to clean up body parts, poo and urine. Every time he spoke of it, he started crying. When she asked why he began to cry everytime, he told her that he had been held prisoner in that chamber for two days and two nights. He was terrified. She never got to know why he was being kept in the chamber. He died before she thought of asking him. Elena and her family are the only people that pass this story on to further people.
