Character Bio

Name: Joseph Kovac

Born: April 14 1977

My name is Joseph Kovac In the year 1977 I was born In Budapest, Hungary. My parents are both pastry shop workers and work long hours, I don’t spend much time with them. My family is Russian but many of the Kovac’s moved to Hungary since It was part of the soviet union. My family and I are not religious and we never attend church. My uncle has a shady background my parents try to pretend he doesn’t exist but I spend more time with him than I do with my parents. He is my father figure.

In life I really enjoy humor, food, and hanging out with friends. I am a skilled chef because I always have to cook for myself. I have no interest in school I find it boring and useless. I cut class all the time and go to my uncle’s mansion. I am normal when it comes to social skills. I have many friends. We always hang out at my uncle’s house we smoke and drink but he doesn’t care he laughs and encourages our fun. Ever since I had friends I was always a leader when it came to my posy.

I am afraid of growing up. Ever since Hungary became an independent country the houses became expensive and the jobs payed very little. In a family both couples are supposed to have a job. The only rich people in Hungary were the gangsters and the politicians.

At the age of 12 Hungary gained it’s full independence it was one f the happiest years of my life. Ever since 1989 we became a democratic republic but all soviet troops left in 1991. I was young during the communist days but I remembered evry dull dry and depressing. It wasn’t tell post communism until I really was able to hang out with friends eat better food, watch entertaining T.V.

What really bugs me about life in Budapest is that we separated from the Soviet Union and became a democratic republic. The problem with communism is that we could not really make a life for ourselves. But when we switched to becoming an indepentent country that was a democratic republic nothing changed, the ritch got ritcher and the poor stayed the same. The biggest goal in my life is to find a way to be ritch no mater what measures or extremes I have to overcome.
