Being an urban New York City kid, the schooling system pickins’ are slim. It's either Public or Catholic school. I was placed into Catholic school from the beginning ages; where dress code is enforced and discipline is given. Most of my peers attended public school where they were free to be whoever, or get into whatever. The freedom they received is something Catholic school lacked. So we Catholic school girls develop an air about us. " --You know what they say about those catholic school girls," raging with hormones waiting to be release.
Around my teens, my mom took me to a play at the Beacon Theater called "WHY DO GOOD GIRLS LIKE BAD BOYS,” a perfect title. Actually the title of my life thus far! The play was colorful, dramatic and pure street love. I couldn't get enough. Even though the ending showed how thugs were not the way to go, and it ended with a gospel song, I was already stuck on the excitement. I clearly got the wrong message then what was intended. It was more so Tyler Perry..ish, and I preferred the John Singleton version. I immediately became drawn to the cutie bad boys and that lifestyle seemed far more interesting. Hey I'm from NY mostly the cute are the bad ones. So my attraction began and I couldn't wait to see who would be 1st on my roster.
Like they say,"bad boys are so much more fun then the good ones but what they don't tell ya is that bad boys break hearts".
