Am I vain/snooty/**?
U've heard the saying the people u surround urself with define who you are.
Let's start in high school. I went to a ** high school full of dropouts, soon to be dead beats, future baby mamas, and those who just don't have a future. I truely hated high school and being surrounded by these ppl and couldn't wait to leave. I got picked on because I wasn't trying to act ghetto or "gangsta" and rarely interacted with those animals. I tried to surround myself and only associate with the achievers and those who had college in their mind but still. I hated high school.
My younger brother on the other hand, made friends with everyone he could even though we went to the same ** high school. Out of the bunch of friends he had only about 3-4 ever made it to college.
I went to a second rate college that was boarder line community college (no offense) full of ghetto folks but since i didn't plan on staying long I didn't even bother making only but a handful of friends.
My brother went to a community college with almost the same crowd but made friends with everyone he could and enjoyed it. He didn't graduate and joined the military.
I trasfered to a good university had the time of my life. But in hind sight i wonder which one of us was right for doing what we did..we were both put in a ** situation. He pretty much made the best of it while I pushed through it with my head down.
Like i said earlier i always believed who you surrounded urself with defined you. So was i narrow-minded for not being open to making friends with just anyone??
You were true to yourself and that is all that matters. You are only getting an answer here now after all these years because you sound sensible and your post didn't have anything to do with belly sitting or sniffing ** or any of the dumb ghetto ** that is always on repeat around here. Stay proud and keep away from the scum like you always have :)
