Dang, freshman year in highschool? Lawd...i can't even recall where my head was at back then. Physically, i was a chubby mess tho :lol: . I mean, i still consider myself thick (although others may disagree :roll: ), but i've dropped some of the baby fat and have grown into my body. I was never a "dork", "loser", or whateva u wanna call it. I used my personality to be appreciated.
College has allowed me to grow ALOT mentally/spiritually/emotionally tho. I'm progressively finding out who Kenya really is and what i'm all about. College is the 1st time i've had to deal with males romantically, and lawd have i learned a few lessons :arrow:
back in the day I used to think you had to "act black" to be black. I used to front like I was a lil ghetto, even though I'm bougie as hell. I was wrong. Second semester Frosh year I surrounded my self with more positive people. I know hang with my little international crew(because we're all from different cultures or mixed). I also went from a 2.9 GPA to a 4.7 GPA. I've become more mature and have identified my weakness and corrected myself. I've also learned to open my eye's to other people's perspectives and go against the grain. I still hang out with most of the same crowd though- the"popular people, athletes, rich folk etc.
Physically- I am taller(of course) and I have cut my hair 6 inches- its now shoulder length. I filled out a lot. with **** and **** and still kept my shape.
I thought I was grown as hell freshman year of high school....hell all through high school which is why I graduated early. Im still basically the same. Confident as hell. I was voted Most Confident my senior year. I have always been very laid back and cool with everybody. I dont have MUCH drama in my life.
Physically, I am about 17lbs heavier... an 3 inches taller. When I was a freshie, everybody said I was mature for my age and looked older. I was friends with juniors and seniors.
One that has changed though is how I feel about relationships. I used to talk to hella fine **** and play them. I used to tell my girls I would NEVER be tied down by anybody. But here I am now in COLLEGE with a boyfriend. I guess God works in mysterious ways!
Freshman year: My hair wuz a lot longer, I dressed like a hoe just because I had big **** and I wuz BOY CRAZY!! I remember going to like all the Football practices with my friends and waiting till the boys went to the locker room to flirt with em...gawd I wuz such a groupie!!
Hmm how have I changed...
I think physically..of course I gained more weight..about 25 pounds heavier from my freshman year..on top of that I got some muscle added to my body cuz i took some weight lifting classes...hips got wider..**** got bigger...I think I stopped growing in 8th grade tho' lol...
Hmm personality wise...
I think I'm still the same person...I've always been laid back...funny..and quiet. I never hung around a big group of people...matter a fact...freshman year I didnt have any friends lol....wasnt until about maybe Jr. year when I can actually say I had a FRIEND...she's my girl to this day...But I was more introverted freshman year..compaired to my freshman year now..where I'm speaking to more folkz...joing clubs...getting to know people a lot better...all of that,
Relationship wise..
I watched too many damn teen movies when I was in highschool...I figured I'd meet my boyfriend freshman year...we'd be together off and on till sr. year..then we'd break up cuzza college...you couldn TELL me that wasnt gonna happen..and it didnt...instead freshman year I didnt have a boyfriend...soph...got a boyfriend...jr...hated that negro...sr dated outside my school...so yes...I think cuzza what happened in highschool I'm more realisitc in my views on relationships and boys...
Ok tis all...
Wow freshman year in high school. I thought this nucca mean't college. But oh well. I've changed from being an immature tomboy to a mature woman. My personality is a whole lot different. I am not afraid of crowds anymore. Now I am somewhere trying to see somebody or getting attention. So much has changed I don't have enuff room to say it all.
Between Freshman year and now...
Physical...+5 inches, -22 pounds
I was a nerd freshman year. Then I started kickin it with Mexicans. That was the beginning and the end from my 4.0 goal.
Physically:
Freshman year is when I stopped growing, so I'm the same height. I've gained a few pounds. My hair used to be BONE straight, now I've decided to go natural. My skin has cleared up a lot. I used to be mistaken for being bi-racial, but now I guess I look fully Black? :?
Mentally/Spiritually:
I'm one of the most pickiest people that my friends and family know. I always have been and always will be picky. I was lazy as hell my freshman year in HS. Now I've kinda grown out of it, but sometimes I do go back to my old ways. I used to be really shy and quiet, now I'm only quiet when necessary. I've realized that my relationship with God wasn't as strong as it should have been, and it still isn't, but I'm working on it.
