Irene is the last of seven children. Her parents are both casual workers who strive to make ends meet. Unfortunately, their meager earnings are not enough to cater to the needs of their big family. She is a shy girl who loves spending time with her peers. Irene enjoys skipping rope and playing soccer and would like to become a nurse when she grows up.
