“The rest of your life is a long time and whether you know it or not it’s being shaped right now. You can choose to blame your circumstances on fate or bad luck or bad choices. Or you can fight back. Things aren’t always going to be fair in the real world. That’s just the way it is. But for the most part, you get what you give.”

just another friday night.

last night my cousin called me crying hysterically, saying her ‘man’ had put his hands on her and destroyed all her shit. he also told my cousin that she has no one by her side because no one cares about her, and that I have never had her back. 

…I can’t tell you exactly what it was inside me that snapped. but something did. So, I went to his house with two cars full of my guy friends. No one was home, but I didn’t care…I was going to wait as long as it took for him to show up. Ironically, two minutes later he pulled up into the driveway. and….i’m not really sure what was going through my mind, but he never had time to get out of the car. I ran up to his car and climbed in the window and started punching him in the face like ten times. it was so funny cause he wasn’t expecting it at all. before I left, i threw one last punch and looked him in the face and said, “I heard you were wondering who has my cousins back….looks like it’s me.” ah, shit was epic. but, now my knuckles are all bloody and bruised. …i wonder what his face looks like.
