Even on the court we stay flyy, Jada & A.I.
what are those rules and standards tho....that's kinda the point of this thread
1) Checking yourself. At times we look at others or circumstances and place blame on it for whatever is going on in our lives. But truth is something we are the culprits, and need to realize that. So I would say always ensuring your giving yourself feedback and asking whether you’re to blame for certain things
2) Playing life as a long term con. By that I mean being prudent and no days un alert. I’m very ambitious and now that I’m “educated” and left the hood there’s goals galore I wanna accomplish. But at times I find myself seeing being that dude from the streets and not allowing others to get one up on me. For example, I’m in a biotech class with 3 other individuals and we are graded as a group, no matter each indidvuaod participating. And so for our first presentation I ended up having to do 95% of the project because the others were slacking. Project 2 came along and I bytches at all of them and did the minimal amount of work, as the others did, and we got a B- Realizing that this was my fate, I decided to go back to my ways and take it all on the chin because I wanted an a and only way I was gonna get it was by picking up their soack. Now of course I ain’t silly and when we presented I ensured to subtly show the professors I did most of the work by taking on the hardest parts and answering questions, but at the end of the day I want a A and this is temporary so I learned not to butch and keep it moving
3) I have tons more but I’ll end with this one right now. And that’s that being “grown” means living your truth. Being open and accepting of yourself for better or worst. I’ go to an elite medicinal school in Cali and man for my first two years every day I was always afraid my professors and classmates would find out I’m from the hood and did time as a kid and essentially hustled and what not. Always shook and shyt because I was different and didn’t come from privilege as they did. But I soon realized that being different, that coming from the hood and making it against all odds was a blessing and that I should be proud of where I am at. I am certainly not proud of the shyt I did as a you gin in the streets, but as I knew better I did better and transformed my life. So no matter what you can tell me whatever about me and my past and it won’t hurt me because I live my truth. I am who I am, I do what I do, and it is what it is. That’s powerful and that allows you to realize that you have the power in life, more than you realize
My bad for spelling a nikka in between waiting for class to start

Last time i had a roommate i was... 28?
Yep
Edit: Mind you i'm not counting a 4 month period when i moved in with a roommate while i was trying to buy a house. I had already told my apartment complex i was moving out and the deal fell through and i was told they already had an offer on the apartment so i could not extend anymore. I moved in with a roomate in March and was out by June. 3 months really.
I now live alone in a small 4 bed 2 bath home. WHen i say small i mean 1,800 sqft which is actually small by Atlanta standards. Lots of big houses down here and depending on the location they be cheap too
whiskey neat

To each his own. The restaurant owner wants to feed the masses and get paid well for it. So does the chef. But the waiter just wants to make as much as he can in tips and get out of there ASAP. It all depends on where you are in your life. The ONE constant is the will to provide for self. "Gotta get up, get out, and get something."
