There were times when I felt like people looked
down on me because I'm a woman. Some people
told me "I heard from this person he helped you
because it was too hard for you. Can't blame you,
you're a woman".

I was totally offended because in the first place,
the person who said that didn't help me at all.
There was a person who was able to help me at
some parts but the rest was done by me and me
alone. Hard for me because I'm a woman?

I don't know why people think women can't be
good programmers but I stood tall and did it,
showing everyone that a woman can also do it
because we can be as smart and as strong as a
man.
Many might laugh at me or see me and my words
as nothing but a joke or a way to humiliate myself
but I believe that every woman is capable of what
a man can do at work, just like how a man can
also do what a woman can. And now here I am.

I graduated with good grades, showing everyone
that this woman isn't as weak or as dumb as you
think.
