“A little girl with great dreams – this is how I’d describe myself firstly.
My daily routine is really simple, the most important thing now for me is going to school, getting back home, reading, and sometimes going out. But I want my life and my daily routine to change in the future. I mean, I want to have the kind of a doctor life, because even now while I’m studying medicine in high school, my biggest dream is to be called by that ‘Dr.’ name.
I’ve had this dream since I was little, but last year, in 2015, the person that I loved the most, my daddy, who supported this dream the most, passed away of this world. Since then I decided to definitely have this as my future plan. Even though in probably 15 years I see myself as a successful doctor, for now there are people who think that this is hard (or even impossible) for a woman.
They have to wake up! We’re in the 21st century. Women can work whatever they want to and be equally (or even much better) than men. Anyways, I hope not only me, but everyone, and especially girls will get what they want in this world; we just have to work really hard and never give up!”
