My name is...

Hi ! My name is Emma I'm 22 years old and I live in New York. My civil status is the middle class. Recently I started to work in a shop,that means that I support myself and I'm proud of it.

I wake-up in the morning,take breakfast, I dress up and I'm going to work. At work I talk with my teammate and customers. I love my job and I feel lucky. After that I meet and eat with my girlsfriens,then we go to shops... Later we go to one of our houses and put on make-up, short skirts and high heels. But the best part of the day is when we go to cocktail parties and dance the Charleston,some people say that its inmoral,but I don't care because I like it.
I think that I'm really lucky for have this life.
I cannot imagine my grandmother's and even my mother's life because they were always doing things at home and with thekids ,they never met with friends or support themselves, for me that's a terrible thing because women want to have fun and do different things in life not only follow orders.
It's time to change the role of women. It's a honor for me being part of this change.
A woman worth as much as a man. A woman can have some fun like a man have. A woman can bote and give her opinion like a man cantoo. A woman can do the same that do a man. Women,men we're all aquals,dont compare more each others...
