Rock n' Roll Doggie VIP PASS
Today, I was in school finishing my testing when I overheard this one woman ask this afghani woman "Did you come here to spy on us???" when she found out she was from Afghanistan. She was so humiliated, she burst into tears and walked out of the room. I went after her to check on her. She then told me that she has had a difficult life, and has since made her home here in the U.S. Her husband was in a very bad accident so he is not able to work to support the family they have, so she tried to find a job. When she couldnt find a job, she went back to school to learn office skills. She is a very timid, quiet, shy woman, but also very smart, very brave for getting out of that country and going against the traditions of her family. She loves dressing in clothes that are in fashion(little things we take for granted at times), loves the freedom of living in the U.S. I look up to her as a symbol of hope for other womem in her situation, and I hope that those women in similar situations will follow her example. This woman kicks ass.
