My hood

Life Lesson #1: Don't judge a neighborhood by its houses: wait till the neighbors come out and see if you really want to live there. Or you will end  up like me living in a neighborhood where you kind of stand out.
Life Lesson #2: If your surrounded by different ethnic groups in your neighborhood try to become friends with them why you ask? Well see, when african-american teenagers aka my neighbors get really bored they decide that it's okay to pick on you while you are simply trying to stroll through YOUR neighborhood. That's stage 1 in which they see if you are going to respond and maybe start saying something back so they can have their share of entertainment. Stage 2 is where the rude comments start coming your way every time you come out of your house and then things by your house are starting to look a little bit messy and they again watch if you will respond so they can have the second part of their entertainment. Stage 3 is where they finally get sick of you ignoring them and leave you alone.
Life Lesson #3: Don't ever take anything they say seriously, I mean they are just trying to entertain them selves that's all, no big deal.

peace!
