The Philly Thing

Posted by VonDign 7/17/08 0 opinions

saturday june 7th my family relocated to philadelphia, pennsylvania..i dunno why philly but it is what it is. frankly we moved because my moms and my brother were getting tired of New York and the only way my mother can live her lifelong dream of owning a house would be to move out of NY (expensive shits). the house itself is nice, i didnt choose it cause i was up in Albany for school.

Moving here was easy, living here for me has been hard, ima admit it. New York is all ive known. Other than one family i didnt know anyone over here. i dont know at what point did that matter to me. growing up all i needed was videogames and a roof over my head. going away to college has changed me immensly and although i havent even though it i am thank ful for the experience. i probably would have never known what having a life meant. now i cant go back to the life i've previously known. back in the day, albany to me stood for fun, not just fun but social fun.  lol i think my personal record for consecutive nights out partying was two weeks, monday through saturday. i probably hit that plateau twice lol (good times). After that i wasnt the same. although drinkin and smokin is frowned upon those actions and what they brought made me who i am. im not dependent on the two at all. i quit smoking herb and i havent drank in more than a month (not by choice, im a social binge drinker).

by no means are they the only Fun thing to do obviously but in my head they equate with "the thing to do". we are at an age where (to quote fabulous - Not Give A Fuck) "Old enough to know better but young enough to not give a fuck". right now, to be honest with you everything id rather be doing rite now is looked at in a bad light in society, except fuckin (deprived).

Truthfully in Philly i dont know where to start, the people im surrounded by are citizens (old folks with jobs and responsibilities and kids). I tried myspace but im not about to myspace niggaz and be like "yo where the party at, where the bitches" lol. i could go to the clubs out here but it doesnt sound like a good idea..at least not alone or with a .45. when i come back here after college chances are im gonna have to become a citizen. and i Have mixed feelings about that (but mostly good feelings). I have used Myspace to contact girls in the area and thats it. speaking of girls there is one that im thinkin about right now; only because i havent heard from her in a minute. ive been talking to this one everyday for about 3 weeks probably more. So its wierd not talkin to her today. Without her id probably rott in this mothafucka, only thing is that she a bit slow when it comes to us but its cool although i wouldnt mind a lil fast forwarding. She has the potential to be special to me she sorta is already (not ready to full on admit that though) i wouldnt wanna fuck it up by rushin her. There was another chick i was talkin to but it probably fell through when i left to brooklyn for the week, i was tite cuz she had some D's on her, but its watever.

Im at the point of saying fuck it lemme just get around the area, im thinkin about iunno playin ball or sum shit even though im not the next Iverson its a fuckin start. I just found out that i have to take the damn permit test again. usually id be tight but its something to do. Hopefully this summer takes a U turn headin towards the good side...the better side would be a better selection of words
