Poor father sells all his land so 13-year-old daughter can enroll in microbiology master’s program in India

In a country where many girls are still discouraged from going to school, Sushma Verma is having anything but a typical childhood.

The 13-year-old girl from a poor family in north India has enrolled in a master’s degree in microbiology, after her father sold his land to pay for some of his daughter’s tuition in the hope of catapulting her into India’s growing middle class.

Verma finished high school at 7 and earned an undergraduate degree at age 13 — milestones she said were possible only with the sacrifices and encouragement of her uneducated and impoverished parents.

“They allowed me to do what I wanted to do,” Verma said in an interview, speaking her native language of Hindi. “I hope that other parents don’t impose their choices on their children.” (AP Photo/Rajesh Kumar Singh)

What Is Your #1 Love Need?

zodiacmind:

Aries: You need your lover to be up-front with you, and you don’t like to be kept waiting. Impatience or lack of spontaneity can be a killer. Worst of all, though, is feeling that your lover is hiding something from you. Be up-front.

Taurus: Gentleness is the one essential…

what if a ghost is in love with me and is using its powers to keep boys away from me because that would explain a lot

me: all our teeth fall out as children and then they all grow back stronger

alien: okay, i mean…that definitely sounds fake, but….okay.

We have extra organs we don’t need anymore, and sometimes they explode, and we have to cut them out.

Our babies have heads that are bigger than the birth canal. Sometimes the baby gets stuck inside, so we cut the mother open so that they don’t both die. 

Some of us can bleed for five days and not die

Some of us are born with both sets of genitals.

Sometimes two to four of us are born at the same time and we look exactly alike

At some point, the aliens aren’t going to know anymore when we’re actually trolling them.

Us: Under certain circumstances, humans have been known to spontaneously develop the ability to breathe fire.

Alien: yeah, okay, that fits in with the other wacky bullshit you guys can do.

Advice for girls: buy skinny jeans in the boy’s section

serrie-smiles:

They’re more comfortable, still form fitting, and best of all: THE POCKETS. THEY HAVE ACTUAL POCKETS.

don’t believe me? look:

image

these are boys pants, and they look just as good on me as any other skinny jeans I own

image

See that phone? I’m going to put it in the pocket. Must be so small right??

image

Ah yes, girl pants length. Probably can’t fit any further than that-

image

what? what’s this?

image

Good god. Oh good lord in heaven. This is blasphemous.

image

Look at how much room is still there. There’s chaos in the streets. Babies are crying. Fashion designers are screaming out of fear of the unknown.

Buy your pants in the boys section, girls. Live in the beautiful world you deserve where you can fit shit in your pocket.

“if a girl is stupid enough to get herself pregnant in the first place-”

…he didn’t get to finish the sentence

This may be one of the only proper reactions girls in my high school ever had.
