I called in for my Jury thingy and I don’t have to report tomorrow but I gotta call back tomorrow around noon to see if they need me for the evening. It would be cool to get called in! Just to get out of work of course. I don’t want to have anything to do with courts and junk. Blah!
I live in the ghetto. And around here, kids my age (I’m 22 and I’m still calling my generation kids, well we are kids aren’t we?) are up to bad things.
Have I mentioned how much I hate ghetto people? Ew! Oh no! Cris is being a snob again! Well there IS a reason why I didn’t go to school in this town after all. A lot of good that did cos now there’s a few of these very ghetto children at MY school. WHY oh WHY do they feel the need to bring attention to themselves? “Look at me! Look at me being ghetto!” Whooped-Di-Do! I’m SOOO Not Impressed!
Go ahead call me white washed… I’m waiting.
I once warned my sister’s friends that if they weren’t careful that this town would suck them up and they would never leave. These were the very same girls that turned on my sister and now are in a gang. I hear one of them is pregnant… at 16!!! Niiiiice!
I don’t mean to hate on my people’s so much. But damn it I can’t help it! I’ve lived on the wrong side of the tracks (literally) all my life and I still do. Perhaps that’s what’s kept me grounded. We’ve always been poor, dirt poor. But we were taught how to act right. I’m just so confused as to why these kids don’t see the bigger picture of the world?
Could it be that they’re *gulp* happy in their little ghetto world? Yea cos they’re big fish in a small pond but outside they’re nothing.
But anyway enough venting for now about my ‘hood’. I just don’t particularly want to be in a jury around here because I’ll admit it I’m PREJUDICE! And that’s not fair. See I’ve already made up my mind about these (my) people. GUILTY!
Luckily no one really reads my crap or else I’m sure I’d have like a million people breathing down my neck about what a jerk (to put it lightly) I am.
Ironically though my notes tell me that I’m sweet… or maybe someone’s been sneaking into my room while I sleep and having a taste?
Thanks for the notes guys! You rock!
Speaking or people who ROCK! I’m going to see Gwenie who’s fuckin hot as hell and we’re gonna have hot steamy sex! Okay I wish, but No Doubt ROCKS!
*Just To Clarify* I'm not necessarily talking just about Latinos. The few that went to my school became dear friends. Also, I love and respect my culture a lot. I have friends of all shapes and colors that have taught me a lot and for that I’m grateful. But still there are just SOME people that get on my last nerve and they come in all shapes and colors as well.
