“Finally!” I yelled out the open car window out into the world as the contengious wind came in making my hair fly further back into the car.

My heart was pounding with adrenaline. I have waiting for this day since the first day I heard those misogynistic idiots chuckle at my ideas.

I have been working as an assistant in that office to earn enough money to finally scrape a trip to Europe. I’ve wanted this trip since I can remember.

And even though thoose jerks made it hard, and they made it very hard, I kept going.

Through every biased comment, though every oddly specific coffee order. I kept going.

My cheeks start hurting from smiling.

I’m going to Europe.
