Rose Colored Glasses

Last year was a really good school year for me.  It was so good, it opened up the door for me to be grade team lead and set myself on path for more upward movement.  Although I was VERY scared just a few short weeks ago, I'm feeling like the second half of 2013 is going to be awesome.

Another reason why I'm feeling so good about where I am is I'm living in more and more moments.  I'm still enthralled by New York City. I still see the magic and beauty; from the Brooklyn Bridge at sunset to the crackhead at sunrise. I'm not tainted or disheartened by how hard this city can be, I just see it as a wonderful city where the strong survive. If I can live here, I can do anything.

I know one when I see one...

*pointing to group of guys in specific colored polos* Are they Island Massive?
And why would you think that?
They're wearing green, gold, and black mighty hard
Word? So all Jamaicans wear yellow and green? That's a bad ass generalization.
Sooooo, when you put on that yellow shirt with those camo shorts and threw on the SuperSonics, it was just another day in your Yardie ass closet?
*blink* I'ma punch you. Right in the babymaker.

i don't think that's legal...

Having conversations with me can be frustrating at times.  Yes, I am a bit "dee, dee, deeee" but most of the time, it's cause I can't hear.  Or I hear, but... yeah, no; I can't hear.
