Jordan; Day 8

Marqui; My goals consist of working for an urban magazine like i.e Ebony, Vibe or The Source! I plan on going to graduate school after college becuase now a bachelors is not enough. I also want to own a dance studio some where down the line. I would preferrably like to be married by 22. (I know wtf!?) I want four children and a happy life. I plan to excute these goals by attending columbia and working my butt off. Then attend graduate school for either english or journalism. During this process meeting the right guy and getting married somewhere between the two. While im in undergrad i will more than likely intern for a magazine. I want this for my life because these are the things i hold close to my heart.Marjane like me, has big dreams that even seem unreal to some people. She wants to become a prophet and now she wants to fight in the war in her country and she is only like 11!

Ahmad;Well we're reading the same book so, yes Marjane's nanny is being denied to pursue a "dream" if you will, because of her social status. I can not recall a time where i was denied a chance to pursue something i wanted because of social status. I think society should be based on social sclass. I think a less fortuante person could get along with a rich person just as good as another rich person can, or even better. The only thing is, in society when you see people who dont have what you have you look down on them to a certain extent. Even in persepolis, Marjane is not able to become apart of the war because she is a child. (just an example)
