Creating a person makes you feel powerful and brings you happiness. It looks like you are really giving her a life. According to the research that I make about my area I have created a person who is particular in the way she think and the way she acts.

Name: Shpresa (Hope)
Surname: Manushaqe
Age: 45 years old
Living situation: Married with three children

Shpresa has a beautiful family and is very happy with her life. She is a very active person and wants to feel every moment of her life. I mentioned that to show her desire of living better and being optimistic. She has three children, a young girl 20 years old, a boy 15 years old and a baby girl 5 years old. When she got married she started living in this quarter and she continued until now. Her husband works as an economist at a private company. She has long blond frizz hair. Her feelings and emotions make her being special in her own being. Her eyes express color, joy and hope. This is the relation also with her name, which means hope in Albanian language. Flowers are her passion and she never get bored taking care of them. Especially lilies and orchids are her favorites.
Another passion is the music, which is a kind of therapy for her.
She also is very friendly and loves to interact with the others. In the same way she is in a age where we can say that she has lived and has a lot of memory and of course she will be creating other ones.


A day with Shpresa:

Starting a day with her is like feeling your heart wit a lot of beautiful emotions.
She wakes up at 7:00, because she has to prepare her young boy to school, her husband to work and her baby girl to the kindergarten. At first she prepared breakfast for them. The things that never missed on the table are: milk, butter, toasted bread and marmalade. For the little girl she prepares different things according to her age. The young girl which is 20 years old has different timetable to the university so she is more independent than the other members of the family. When she is preparing breakfast and she need something she goes and buy it to the only market that is in the zone. After her husband and the young boy left home, she takes care of the little girl and starts preparing her. She dressed her and takes her to the kindergarten which is around 10 minutes on foot. After taking the daughter to the kindergarten on her way back home she stops to the market which is near by the home. She buys there some fruits and vegetables that she needs to prepare lunch. At the market she usually meets also some of her friends that are making the same thing as her. When she entered home she ordered the house quickly and after that she starts taking care about her lovely flowers, which is one of her favorite things to do.
In the same time she listen to the music, especially rock & roll, rhythmic music especially. Her favorite flowers are lilies and orchids with all their colors. She watered them and takes care of them in different way according to their kind and their own needs.
After taking care of her flowers she starts preparing lunch. She cooks mostly bio food like vegetables in their different ways. For example she prepares the tomato, cucumber in the salad. She never forgets to prepare the soup of vegetables every day. Another way she cooked them is baked or grilled. Her family doesn't consume very much meat bust mostly vegetables and sea food. Shpresa is very careful of preparing healthy things for her family. After she finishes preparing the lunch she takes a rest and admires the beautiful flowers in her small balcony.
The first member of the family that comes is the boy and the young girl. She starts preparing the table for them and during this time the boy goes out to make a quick football game with his friends. When the table is ready Shpresa calls her son and daughter to start eating. The lunch is a meal in which every member of the family eats when they find time because of the different time table that they have. Only in the weekend they gathered together and have lunch as a family. After finishing the lunch the young girl goes at work and the young boy takes a rest before starting preparing the home works.
At 16:00 has to go to the kindergarten and take her little daughter. At the same time her husband comes back from work. The afternoon is the part of the day when she dedicated mostly to her passion for needlework. They gathered around four-five woman and embroider different views of nature. The needlework is not just for passion but also is like a method to bring some incomes to the family.
In the evening they gathered all together as a family and discuss about their day. This part is the most beautiful one because you feel how important is the family for everyone.
Even if you feel tired your family gives you the strength to go on and be ready for the next days that will come.


Text of the scenario:

Living in this quarter Shpresa ( Hope ) will absolutely be in touch with all the phenomena that exist there, even if she doesn’t want to.
She started her day by looking at the beautiful view that the flowers gave to her. This makes her think about her desire to have a garden full of different colors of flowers.
In her memories she remembered always the image of her grandmother who had a big garden in her private villa. Every time when she meets her, she brings to her a bouquet of lilies or orchids. By having all these memories about that it is impossible for her to not observe the only little island of flowers that exist in the neighborhood. It is impressive and obligates you to look at it in the immensity. Those happened because it is the only part that is well cared and fool of colors.
To imagine and desire beautiful things is wonderful but after that she has to come back to the reality. She realized that she has to prepare lunch. Shpresa is a good cooker and she loves to cook especially vegetables. This fact is related with her desire to get as much as possible information from the television and by reading books. She has learned that all the vegetables are healthy. Considering the fact that she wants the best for her family she tried to cook as good as possible. On the road to the market she feels joyless, because the condition of the market is not as she and everyone else wants to. It is near by a road which has a lot of circulation and also dust. But even though the need for what the market has makes her close an eye and move on.
Instead of cooking and flowers she also passes her time by making needlework together with her friends. Connected with the garden she always has imagined one with benches inside where she can pass the whole afternoon with her friends. But for the moment the only possibility that she has are the stairs if the building, which are comfortable at all. The reason she has this passion is connected with her mother. When she was young and was getting married her mother makes her a lot of special things in needlework. So nowadays she continued feeding this passion and making it bigger. Sitting at the stairs is in a curtain way the only part of the day when she feels a kind of connection with the community. It looks like a kind of interaction, the only one I can say.
A lot of people choose to go out to pass their afternoon because near their house they don’t have a lot of choices. Coming back home looks like an everyday challenge because you have to fight with a lot of details that makes you nervous. It is impossible to just walk straight to the entrance of your building. You have to avoid the parking and the mod also. It becomes like a labyrinth that you have to solve before coming home.
This is not the only challenge that you have to meet. The noises of the cars are much more fastidious. They are not frequently but when they comes they makes you go crazy. They always come when it is so silent and you are preparing to get ready to relax. It looks like a terrible noise into an ocean of silence. Even it is small it looks like the strongest one.
Living in this space you have to face a lot of difficulties but in the same way it is a place that has a lot of potential in it.
