The year my brother left for college and I finally got my own phone line. I thought I was grown because my mama couldn't pick up the other line and embarrass me anymore. 96 was the year I jumped OFF the porch. First time I kissed a boy and felt butterflies. First time I skipped class. First time I smoked (shout out to Kizzle) First time I had my own starter jacket (Charlotte Hornets) First time I was worried about how I dressed. 
ETA: I want to say that it was rough around these times in my city. I think we were the Murder capital for some years at this point. I remember being scared for my bro when he got his starter jacket in 94, bc nikkas was killing for them
