I Know that people who have greater problems in their lives are going to hate me for this (thank god there's an anonymous option) but I just wanna let it out.
My problem is that I have been trying to finish my third level education in the field that I really want to have a career with but a lot of things kept dragging me down and I'm too close to giving up. Some of the things that pulled my goals away from me are stuff that usually happen all the time like: university not taking me into the school i want or like failing the subject that gets you into the major so you have to take it again the semester after to try again. those are normal. However, the thing (or shall i say one) that is really not helping me reach what i want, is my dad. Unfortunately, yes. My dad.
see where I originally am from, girls are just meant to be housewives. People just dont trust that women can be SOMETHING. They think that we do third level education just to carry the Bachelor's or w/e, which is so frustrating! I've been struggling like this for three years! My friends are already seniors graduating in less than a year... and I'm just here with only one year complete. ONE YEAR! ONE YEAR COMPLETED IN THREE! I literally took 1 semester and by the end of it.. by finals! my dad just decided to move countries and I wasnt allowed to stay in dorms. he made me drop the semester knowing that it was the last two weeks of it. so then i had no other option and said maybe i could transfer but the country we went to next didnt have my major in any of it's universities! so i couldnt transfer because i want my major that I have been dreaming about since i was 14! I kept nagging that i go back and live in the dorms until he finally agreed after wasting another full semester for me.. but i was like its fine i can consider it a 1 year off and start over and i did. i traveled back and stayed at the dorms and finished 2 semesters (1 year). Then, my dad all of nowhere calls me saying that he found a guy that I should marry and If I disagree he won't send my school fees so i cant continue and he promised he'spay my school fees when i'm married. Again, I had no choice. I had to go meet the guy and see if i like him and thankfully i did and we're happily married now. BUT after i got married my dad was like i never wanted you to finish third level anyway because its just a waste of money for a girl who'd end up to be a housewife anyway. at that point i just flipped so bad and literally had a breakdown because i want to have this career so much and out of everything in the world, the closest person to me is the one stopping me by literally making me have no choice. I tried getting a job but just wherei lived, people dont hire people with no bachelor's degree. My husband and I moved to a new country and so i had to take me papers from uni hoping that i can transfer and finish my education. Third level education in the new country is just too over the top expensive and my husband offered that he'd pay for me and help my dad. but then of course my dad thinks i should just stay a housewife.
anyways i've said to much and there's a lot more I'd write a book aboutit. its just that without my third level degree no one would appreciate my knowledge and education in that major i really want to have a career with. besides school, i've done my own self studies online and from books! I know i can do so good at this. I'd get no job! but my dad is being an asshole and i'm really frustrated and feeling really down. I just wake up everyday feeling like a worthless piece of crap.

Prove the people wrong. Show them you are someone who doesn't give up. You can be an inspiration to other young girls who want to pursue a good career. Don't let anyone tell you what you can and can't do. #GRLPWR (Girl Power) :)
