Geisy Arruda, 20, recently made her comeback from an event that took away her rights to an education. Bandeirante University expelled Arruda last November for wearing a skirt that was seen as too short and immoral. Three months later, Arruda has made her return as a dancer in Rio de Janeiro’s Carnival celebration. "I confess, I'm a vain girl, and the changes I've made have given me the confidence I need to dance in these Carnivals," Arruda told The Associated Press. She danced in one of the Carnival parades wearing a version of the skirt that had her removed from the university. "I totally agree with her taking complete advantage of this situation to give herself a better life. She comes from a humble family, and I challenge anyone in a similar situation to say they would not do the same," Sabrina Bispo, 23. This opportunity has given Arruda a chance to show that she will not be held down by the mistakes of others in the past and that she has mad a push for the better to move forwards in her life.
