friends
hangin’ with mister cooper
this is my first public school in america/ its in the midwood area of brooklyn
these are my classmates and this is our gym
the girl in the bottom row with the multi color top is not actually one eyed but for some reason seems to photograph that way
my bestest girlfriends are mavia fleury and renee faye (top row royal blue dress/ center row pearl earring)
vanessa prince is also a best. but she’s really pretty so we kind of hate her. (tartan skirt)
crystal jones is the only person i have ever truly been a bully to in my life and i am sorry. (striped turtleneck)
hector gonzales who i am sitting next to is my great love, he doesn’t know, he doesnt care
for hunter
i never shot guns before.
the only time i ever held a gone was in 1987. my stepdad bought one ’cause there were some crimes where we lived in birmingham. he bought a set, one for himself and one for my ma.
it went like this, we were at the walmarts picking out his gun. the man behind the counter was really nice. i mean, he had so many options/ all kinds a sizes.
in the excitement i tell my pa we should get a gun for my ma and he thinks its a great idea. the guy behind the counter says “she can fit this one in her purse”.
how convenient.
at dinner my mom throws something at my dads face, from across the table, hard to say what it was.
we returned both guns the following day.
