Originality...

since I been back from Indiana..being back in nyc is making me realize why I left in the first place..uggh

like don't get me wrong I LOVE BROOKLYN and like i love my neighborhood its so diverse and original but once i step out of it all i see are clones...everyone looks the same or tries to look the same...it seems that my generation is caught up with MONEY..like don't get me wrong i like to have money but im not gonna spend it on something that someone else or that everyone else has

i feel that they assume if they look like they got money it makes them more important WRONG...in brooklyn someone well assume "oh their fly or have money" but to the brands that you are wearing they are saying thank you for spending hundreds of dollars on clothes that are already out of season or out of style and to corporate america you are just another consumer and not important

before you spend think about why you are really spending it..is it because everyone else has it and you want to "Fit In" or is it because you want to look like have money???

in conclusion
ORIGINALITY IS DEAD!!

  1. aint that da fuqin truth.
    Same thing i say to myself; its like once i touch BK its like love at 1st sight all over again-- but then it turns into one of those Love/ Hate relationships where you've had enough already.
    i love my brooklyn-- but theres certain things im tired of seeing and being around.

    BK all day but sometimes theres always room for change.

  2. yea my point exactly..like i live in clinton hills and i love the diversity and the fact that all the college kids are so original when it comes to their outfits and style but once i leave my neighborhood i remember why i left brooklyn in the first place
