Dare To Be Different...

To the people who really know me, knows that I like to be different in just about everything I do. And I know it may sound weird to my Florida people...but I thank God all the time for leaving the state of Florida and going to a school like Wisconsin for college. I seen and met so many different people that open my eyes to a whole another level as far as daring to be yourself and different. I admit, I thought I was different in High School...I mean I looked and dress different but I was afraid to express it because people and my friends would look at me crazy and think I'm wack! LOL Example...If I was driving a car and I put in a Nas CD in...My homeboys would look at me like I just changed the radio to Country and say something like this..."N*gga WTF are u listening to bih?!? Man Take that BullSh*t out bro. Play that Triple J My N*gga!" LMAO Now looking back at it, I was a Simple Minded Negro in high school.

Basically what I'm trying to say is I THINK that in high school everybody was just doing stuff to fit in. And I be the 1st to admit that. I was a well known dude in Palm Beach County during HS. after signing day in February, I was a well know dude in South Florida. I would go to basketball games and people would know me in Broward and Dade County (I know, Surprise me too LOL). After Signing Day thats when I felt like I was free to be myself. And once I went to college and got around a lot of different types of dudes trying to be something in their life...shoot I know who I was gonna become when it was all said and done.

So basically what I'm trying to say is dont be like twitter and follow everybody, take a detour and create your own route from time to time. You'll be amaze the kind of reaction you'll get from people and how people will think of you. Right now theres probably a dude (or a girl but I hope not) that's reading this and saying "I'm Lame" for even doing a blog. Thats OK because you just help me prove my point on "Dare To Be Different"...THANK U! I'll be a lame in your eyes but I can careless what anybody thinks of me. That will slow me down in life, and I live life in the fast lane!
