long money

So everybody wants to ball...nothin wrong with that; I too want to ball, but not like yall. I have no desire to ball anytime soon. I just finished my first year of grad school and I'm happy because I'm makin progress. No I'm not makin the big money like some of my peers but...I say holla at me when im 30, im grindin till then. I'll forgo all that stuff that Ving Rhames was referring to as "butter" in the infamous guns and butter speech he gave in Baby Boy, ya know. the cars, and the jewelry, and the clothes...all that shit that doesn't appreciate value. Now dont get me wrong, I like to spend money on nice things but I live within my means and invest $2 for every $1 I spend Anyway...everybody has goals. And here's mine.

Do you see that shit?...thats a mansion...with 2 airplanes parked in the back. And if im not mistaken, thats the fukkin ocean off to the upper left. An rappers brag about cars and jewelry....HAHAHAHAH. So yea I'm tryin to ball like this...who is ballin like this you ask....mr Saturday Night Fever himself. This...is John Travolta's Crib. He's definately makin a statement...can you imagine how it feels to have sleepovers at that crib. If not, gimmie some time and I'll invite your kids over to play with mine...

that's deep.

10 deep to be exact, they're at it again, THIS time seeming to got their minds right and made some shit for the ladies. I've always DUG 10 deep's hoodies, so much that I was about to cop the SMALLEST one I could find...they just FEEL so good to me, ANYWAY, running about $99.00 a pop, I would have to say the only down side [to ME] is that they're OLD ass prints of the dudes hoodies, but I'm not gonna complain.

and now, it's time for the PHOTO[S]::

now go on, COP YOURS

play on playa

Maybe I AM getting old, but I always find myself saying that kids today dont have "real toys" to play with. I mean no diss when I say that nowadays everything is connected to a TV show or or movie. Everything is Dora the Explora (or Go Diego Go apparently), Nemo, Spiderman or Clifford associated but what happened to toys that didn't need to be linked to anything to be fun to play with. Like an etch-a-sketch, and a skip it. Well the good people at VH1 decided to air a show called I LOVE TOYS where they had the 100 GREATEST TOYS OF ALL TIME; check out the top 20...remember these...Personally I was kinda bored with the hula hoop so I woulda put legos at the top but...WHATEVER
