This is how I'm trying to live my life like right now. Legendary. I know I may never be worldly renounced or insanely rich and famous, but I know I'm going to put out a legendary effort to achieve what and where I want to be. Hope this inspires you.
"I'm scared of what I won't become, and you're scared of what I could become."
*Disclaimer* I don't know why I have to make these silly disclaimers because I should just say how I feel without feeling bad. But the language I'm about to use is out of pure ANGER and I don't want to be seen as an immature young adult. Thanks for understanding.
Ok... So WHAT THE FUCK >.<. So the city of blah blah blah gave me a notice through the mail about my recent traffic violation. I will let you guys create an opinion because as you can see, I am upset. Now I know some of it may be blurry but I believe you can get the jist of it. If not let me re-explain quickly. I recently received a traffic violation. Now I'm 19 years old so I am considered of young age, which I agree with. A new law, I assume, has put in effect that teenagers have to to take a class if they get two traffic violations within 3 years. THREE FUCKING YEARS!!!
Now you know that these classes are NOT free. If I don't get another ticket within these fucking three years, PURE LUCK. That's fucking ridiculous. I've been a driver for two years already, no accidents, went through driving school, college student who had one pesky traffic violation. This stupid capitalist country is all about making money and ripping people's lives apart. You know how much I had to pay for that stupid ticket? $60 + another $60 for not showing up to court (I was attending school an hour away from the courthouse).
Point is, I am on the verge of being dead beat broke with my job and this 3 year probation doesn't make my life any easier. I wish people, our government weren't such douche bags. This is the fucking reason why I hate politics. Republicans are for the rich, Democrats love a government controlled society, and Independents are in a dream world of a society that will never exist because of elitist.
What can I say about this JERK in my life? He's the best JERK a brother can ask for!
This sexy guy is one of the reasons why I come back home from college so excited. With all of the bullshit he has might put me through and how gay and assholish he can be, I love this man right here to death.
He's been my person to go to when things get rough and he's been the person behind my hands when he gets rough ;). haha (We're not gay).
If only I could be there more for him I would. My younger brother is like my older brother. I've always used him as a crutch and I've always been there for him as one too. Even though he doesn't really open up to me and I'm not as cool as his friends or maybe even his girlfriend, I will always be there for him because that's what brothers do. I just hope the day that he might fall and not have those others around for him, he doesn't forget that I'm here waiting to pick him back up.
If you know me personally, you may know how much of fan I am of Kanye West. I know, I know, HE'S AN EGOTISTICAL ASSHOLE WHO CAN'T SING (but still made a good album regardless). I have friends who say to get off his penis and so on...
LISTEN, this man right here is a BIG reason why Hip Hop is how it is right now. He made Hip Hop into not being about just hoes, money, and other pointless shit. To be honest, I wouldn't have liked this genre so early, or even at all if it wasn't for him. People might have still thought baggy clothes were cool (urban kids that is), and Soulja Boy might have been the new Kanye (haha). I remember sitting in class with my friend Charles (middle school) and hearing Jesus Walks for the first time. It was from that point on that I became so infatuated with Hip Hop and Rap.
I even remember how my father got his first album "The College Dropout" because he liked it. To me he wasn't talking about useless stuff, their was a story behind it. Something that I think Lil Wayne and other rappers don't do as often. Every album he has come out has been something new that others haven't done before. He changes the game every time he makes music and it's hard not to agree with that. College Dropout lyrically changed how rappers made music, Late Registration had more meaningful lyrics, the sounds from the beats we're out of this world, and the look of a rapper being a "thug" went out the window, Graduation defeated the blabbering mouth of 50 cent with the modernization of his lyrics and rhymes, and 808's and Heartbreak (RNB album) was deep and emotional using the sounds of auto tune.
Yeah Ye' may be an asshole, but he makes good music and has affected out generation immensely. He's a smart person, just foolish at times, but look and listen to what he's been through. Maybe I'm on his jock too much but this is how I view him. I think he's the musical artist of the decade in all honesty but a lot of people wouldn't agree because of his recent behavior. At least he served food to homeless people in LA (nice guy?).
Oh well. He's making music. I'm weird and I follow his blog, which is pretty entertaining, and this is the end of my rant haha.
P.S. Thought I show this cool freestyle Kanye threw down, there's not many of them lol (sold soul to the devil? wtf? I don't think anything of it :D)
