Ok, I'm gone. The future's never been more hopeful for me than it is now. I don't want to mess this up. This is my redemption story, a punk kid from the bronx, who blew his chance to get a college education, messed around on a message board and became hated by its members, then realized how important an education was, and was given a second chance. I can't mess this up now. For all the souls lost in the last few years, and for all the good I can possibly do with my life if given the chance, I have to sacrifice and struggle to win back my honor and worth as a person now. No more kiddie silliness. Men of all races are struggling right now to reclaim some dignity in a world that's decided they're no good. For the sake of the next generation, I'll likely become a role model for others to follow, and thusly must lead by example and not behave in a classless, stupid manner that so many other black men damn themselves into.
Certainly, yes, we do have the freedom to be anything we want to be in america, but so many kids see their only role models as stupid hood guys instead of the regular guy/nerd culture that I and many of my buddies were born into and therefore don't see education as a serious thing worth pursuing or else they'll be cast out of their gang. Like I said before, it's the boyz in the hood scenario. damned if you do, damned if you don't kind of thing. To clarify, the movie was about a young black college bound male who was caught up between the race relations within his community. This is something that still pursists to this day as stupidty consumes people and certain blacks have to go to war with themselves over whether getting an education is a good thing or just another form of suppression and control . truth is, it's a damn good thing. Stupid kids man, I'm on the b-ball court and there's this little kid there and he's the asshole of the group, the dumbass while all his friends are the more intelligent, level headed type. He'll likely end up in jail and drag a few of his friends with him. That's the kind of thing I'm talking about. Anyway, it's complicated stuff, race relations.
So yeah, I'm on the move, babay!! BOOOOOOOOOYAH! TAKE THAT, INTERNET!
