Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Peers:
Why are you getting a degree in engineering? You'll just get married and be a housewife.
How I responded:
Another student (black male) told me, "Ignore them. He's just jealous because you aced the exam when he barely passed." No one knows where life will take you. I've never been a stay-at-home housewife - but if I were, I'm sure that the lessons that I've learned along the way would help me excel at it!
