Hi hello, this is just a little thing I wrote for an English project. It’s not much, but I would like to develop it into something more. It’s about being a woman and the struggles we endure. Enjoy…<\/p>\n

Shortly after I finished college, I went out seeking a job. I was a Journalism major told that women can\u2019t write, so that motivated me that much more.<\/em><\/p>\n Applying for jobs was exhausting, and there were nights where I wondered if I chose the right major, but then I got a phone call.

I got in my taxi and road five blocks away to the place that could be my future workplace.<\/em><\/p>\n Stepping into that office room, I could not explain my excitement. The interview went well, and the editor even had a few words for me.<\/em><\/p>\n He said, \u201cNow if only you were a man,\u201d and ended it will a giggle.<\/em><\/p>\n Right then and there I felt my face get red and my nails dig into the palms of my hands from making a fist.
