Misunderstood......

I'm starting to think I'm misunderstood......seen in a different light, or possibly not seen at all. I've never had a problem with people not understanding me because I don't understand some people. What I don't understand however is how you can come to a unbiased opinion on something you know nothing about. Everyone thinks they know everything and everyone is to worried about what everyone else is doing. Do YOU.....be YOU....stop forcing it. You don't have to have this or that just to try and be the person everyone else wants you to be. I wonder where everyone went wrong? For me...I remember the days. Most of you already know by now, but yea I mean shit....I'm country....I come from farms,grits,pork, and dirt. I've never claimed to be anything other than what I am. Now I'm not no saint nor have I ever claimed to be, but I do know that I come from value and have certian things institled in me. I don't know all of you and the ones I do know I may not know well. I've always stayed true to who I was for the most part. I never tried to conform to the masses, it isn't really in my "swagger" to do that. I'm way to proud of who I am and what I'm from. I don't claim to be hard or from the hood (even though I will smack your shoelaces untied) I don't try to dress like YOU or THEM. I just do me matter fact that's all I've ever done cause I've always wanted to stand out. Not because I wanted any particular accliam, but because I always felt like their isn't anyone else like me, nobody else on my level. In no way does that mean I'm superior to any other. What that does mean is that I understand individuality. It seems like I'm just rambling.......these are really just my thoughts you know........basically how I'm feeling at the time. I feel like people are focusing on all the wrong things. Kicks this Kicks that.....I'm tired of it...I'm out the shoe game for a bit too. It's saturated with a bunch of wannabees and it's hurting me because I've been in it since the beginning. I remember when Nike dropped the Bret Farve Zooms back in 95 and 96 and how I lost my mind and felt like I had to jump through hoops to get my Mom to pick them up. Shit, I remember me and Dennis were at the pool and had on the OG raptors and they got stolen out of our locker while we were swimming. I remember that feeling of being so hurt and not being able to understand why someone would do that. Looking back years later I don't know why that person took those shoes, but i hope they brought the same joy to that person that they brought to me. I know I had a shoe problem in 6th grade when we played Alex English's sons team in my rec leauge and the kid always had the craziest looking shoes. Since that point I've always been concerned about what's on my feet. Your not a shoehead because you get every SB that comes out, but really what the hell is a shoehead anyway? I've never called myself that....you all call me that. To me it's normal to have such a infatuation with beautiful art. I don't know maybe I'm tripping and it's just this mood I've been in Latley. All i've been doing is throwing on my Fav CD on the Ipod and just taking a walk or whatever and just thinking, reflecting, planning for tomorrow, and enjoying the beauty that life brings everyday.

He's Back....

So a new post has been long over due instead of re-capping the last month of my life for the sake of your reading. I'm just going to start with this past weekend and keep it moving. So lets see school is right around the corner it's already gearing up to be one hell of a year. The summer was Def one to remember many many good times. I hope everyone can say the same. I FINALLY got to make some much needed changes to my bike that I've been wanting to do which i'll toss in here later. Turned 21 on the 31st of July and it was just straight Bananas! I've been loving every minute of it. I got plenty of new pick ups over the past 3 weeks and I just copped the Rad blue/red Vans yesterday which are official. I'll be through tomorrow with some more post. As you know I'm still.....
