English wasn't my first language so pardon my writing. Even this first sentence might be grammatically not correct :))
I came to America about ten years ago. I had a medium size dream when I decided to come to America...I mean I was just wanted to get the hell out of London. I was living with my aunt and her family back there. They were good to me but it was not enough freedom. I felt like I was held at a prison by the beautiful beach. So I decided to run to America to be with my boyfriend. I was 20 years old. Didn't think much...that's how it started.
I went through thick and thin, ups and downs....a lot more downs than ups but finally I transferred to UCLA. I thought UCLA was a ticket to heaven...(to be exact a ticket to an American Dream). I majored in Math. I didn't love Math...I don't even know I like it. But I wanted to be a math major because that sounded smart, and I thought it would be more job opportunities after graduation. Now I can't get a job and I got a degree in something I don't care much.
The worst thing is I'm getting old....I'm in my early 30's now. I'm LOST. The whole time my goal was to get accepted at top notch university in America and be an educated successful woman. Bang!!!! Now I got a degree from UCLA...but it's still the same. My life isn't getting any better...for sure I'm not a successful career woman :-{
It makes me MAD...drives me CRAZY when I see something like this on job requirements ...2 to 5 years experience in such and such but only need high school diploma. Why did I study so hard then? Job after job..Rejection after Rejection...I'm tired of getting rejected. Hopeless, depressed and angry! Yes I am very angry.
