The plan

The plan

A Chapter by The-big-L

 

 

Who can tell me they've never cheated life? Probobly allot of people! But who can say they've never cheated an oppertuninty that's been right under they're nose?

When I was 15 years old I once walked in to the office of the head mistress. She had a sighn over her desk that said       
        

"Women, we have to work twice as hard
    and be twice as smart  to be considered  half  as good"

 

Later that evening I swore into the solid sisterhood also known as femenism as my father sat in the living room, unaware of the long lasting changes taking place in the very next room.
He was despreatly trying to block out my loud, squeeky, over excited voice telling my freind every detailed word of the coversation exchanged between myslef and the ever so powerful looking head mistress as she handed over the one key that opend every room in the school.

I was the first black, girl to become school body president. I was the best of both world, a mix of Obama and Hillary Clinton. What all theese people failed to mention is the protected little box the called middle school and how it was followed but yet another box called high school. They forgot to mention how one box led to the next until the day came when you stepped out and took a chance.
To be a femenist comes with irony according to my brother, he says it requires the one thing  women physicall lacks "BALLS" (metaphoricaly speaking).

I had it planned out, grow up, become the strongest woman alive and end world poverty....peice of cake, right?
