"ghostride the whip...put your stunna shades on..."
[..okay so before I start rambling on...I'm feeling sooo G and ghetto today hence all of this:]
okay so its friday night and I am home! Its soooo weird to stay in on a weekend...well...its only 10 so...
anyways I'm listening to some of this hyphy stuff....
for all my socal peeps....this hyphy movement is CRAZYYY....but pretty interesting...
so its like this thing that they have here in norcal--the bay area to be exact...
I'm pretty sure you have hear of the word "hella" right?--No Doubt made it pretty mainstream...
anyways....this whole culture is sooooooo developed and crazy...they have their own lingo and stuff..okay so what I've learned so far......
--hella: a lot, really, etc: [origin:"hell of a lot"]
--hecka: derived from hella
--hyphy
--go dumb
--go stupid
--get retarded
--ghost ride the whip
--muggin'
--bootsie
--stunna shades
--thizz
...okay I am sooo drawing a blank here but there are so many words!
its crazyy they have their own music--its sooo good to dance to...
anyways...I was just thinking about how crazy it is that though we all live in wonderful California we could all be sooo different.....I mean--me, I'm just so L.A. thats just my city--to live and die, you know? LA is so scene--its so awesome...but living here and seeing this culture is soo interesting.....its fun...
I always had this conception of Norcal that people were all hillbilly -ish and boring...but no!
its really awesome...
I don't know how to really explain it but its so fascinating! It's like, you have to live here to see how this impacts people's lives, how this is sooo part of their lifestyles--its their culture...damn it I LOVE sociology...
goshness...I guess I'm just having Myspace withdrawals....5 days...loveit...
anyways...life is pretty awesome right now...like too awesome....
I have come to the conclusion that I am a city girl--I'm L.A. and I need it....
I miss the beach, awesome shopping, hollywood shows, riding the metro with my homies gs...I even miss South Central and stuff.....EVERYTHING......
I 'm thinking of purchasing a camera...I'm taking this photography thing serious...
I realized that FASHION is my PASSION--oh I OFFICIALLY hate LC --or lauren--its sooo not fair that just because she was on Laguna Beach she gets all the perks..its like--ahh!!!
whateves--
random thoughts--
--what the hell is North Face--I see it everywhere here!!!
--why do people steal bikes?
--why does yummy food make you fat?
--why am I so responsible with my cards??!!
--why do piercings close up?
--why do I hate my curly hair?
--why do I love my curly hair?
--why don't I have a Chloe bag?
--why is Heidi a whorebag?
AND THE BIGGEST QUESTION OF ALL:
--why is Polaroid film more expensive that the actual camera???!!!!!!!????????!!!!!!!
...okay so for my socal peeps and everyone who cares about this whole hyphy movement:
watch this:
...my recommendation for the day: Immortal Technique...he's the real shizz.......
god, how I miss my old ways: viva la revolucion.......
do we live in a society with false consciousness:
oh fosho....
