Double Duece- Major's point of view Ch. 4

"Major what we gon do today?" my dog Donche asked while i was playing the new sonic game on the sega we stole from that old ass lady's house yesterday night. I ignored his question trying to get Sonic to get the ring in the circle, i grabed my gin and juice and drank. "Major!" He laughed
"Shut the hell up! shit always annoying the shit out of somebody." i yelled and threw the controller out the tv. "Sorry Major just chill." This Nigga knew to never get on my bad side. "Ay yo! You know what i heard? There some cops going round the neighborhood" My boy Satan said.
"What?" i glanced at him quick. 5-0 knew never to mess with me after we done scared them off.
"Yeah, some nigga and some cracker cop". he laughed. "Let's go!" I told my crew. "Where we going?" one of my crew boys said. "To just chill, smoke some weed." I said. I wanted to see those cops for myself, I needed to know who had the nerve to mess with me after what happened to that hoe and her kid. We went out side and walked a few blocks. "Dame! Look at that ride!" Satan pointed to some nice ride. Probably belong to one of them rich white folks. My boy John sat on the trunk. "How you like me now yo!" He laughed and we joined in. Just then some some black dude come up out of no where, punches John and throws him to the ground and points a gun at us. Like i was scared to die. He got John's name too.

"The names Hawk" he says and jerks his head at the Irish cop. "His names Spenser. You care to promulgate the first rule?" The Irish cop says "First rule, don't sit on Hawk's car."
"Any questions?" He asked us. "Yeah!" I called out.
"What's your name?" he asked.
"Major."
"What's your question Major."
"You a white man's nigga?"
"I suppose you could say i'm nobody's nigga" he said.
He seem like one of those rich niggas that read the books, he think he better then me cause he go to some rich white school. Big house probably too in his little Gucci or Prada crap clothes he wearing. Now he got a rich white man running him like a slave, he so blind.
"How come you brought him with you?" i asked.
"Company, you run this outfit?" he asked. He not as dumb as he looks.
"We all together here, man. You got some problem with that?" I was waiting for him to challenge me. The Hawk dude smiled.
"Not yet."

I grinned back at him. Challenge accepted bitch.
"Not sure John Porter believe that entirely." I said.
"He's not dead." Hawk said.
I nodded. "Okay, he be bruising your ride, now he ain't. What you want here?"
"We the new Department of Public Safety." Hawk said.
"Which means what?"
"Which means that starting right now, you obey the 11th commandment or we bust your ass." he said.
"You Iron?" i asked, like i read a dame bible. these peps around here must be desperate to get these dudes right here.
"We the iron here." he said.
"What's the 11th commandment?"
"Leave everybody else the fuck alone." he said.
"You and the Irish?"
"Uh huh." he nodded.
"Two guys?"
"Uh huh."

I laughed and low fived my dog Nate, these cops in for some trouble and they don messed with the wrong niggas.
"Good luck to you, motherfuckers" and signaled my crew out. We laughed like crazy. "Let's go smoke a blunt, this is gonna be interesting."
"Look like ya'll were playing a game of cards with that talk." Satan said.
"We'll call it a draw." I smiled.

Double Duece...

Double Deuce is an interesting story so far and i think the story is real because because there a few areas in Michigan, Florida, Alabama, e.t.c that are just like what is happening in the book. For a group of gang members to ride up and drive bye on a 15 year old girl and her newborn baby is straight up G. Not in a good way, but in a scary way because they are places like that all the time on TV on the new and even the people in the neighborhood are scared. It kind of reminds me of a book version of Boyz in the Hood or even worse Menace to Society which is the ghettoest movie I've ever seen besides New Jack City. All the people in the stories and the movies want to end the violence but are too sacred to act. That's one of the reasons why i will never live in the ghetto, i might as well take my a#% to the suburbs or any safer area where I know somebody. I like the characters though, they all seem like real people everyday who act instead of "fake characters" that you read in the books or movies who are too good to be true. I just hope the book gets better, at first i didn't like it but it got interesting after chapter 3, so thanks Prof. Simon! A real good book so far.

What I read in my SpareTime?

I read everything from magazines to novels, matter of fact reading is actually one of my favorite hobbies. I fell I'm away from the world in my own private mind when i read. I like mostly paranormal books about ghosts, witches, or whatever is cool but lately I'm beginning to hate reading books. It seems that every time i discover a good book, it gets popular and then made into a movie and then the whole world knows about it and posers pretend they like the book because it's being made into a movie. A good example is Twilight. I read it in 05' when it first came out at the library, and i liked it so much i told my best friend about it and even borrowed him the book and he never read it, it wasn't until 3 years later when it was being made into a movie he actually cared about the book and started buying the crappy movie merchandise like crazy and non stop pestering me to borrow him the book to read. But getting back to topic reading is something that makes you feel good or bad,sad,thankful, or just blessed because of the words. I know everyone has at least once in their lives has read a book that made them cry or it just changed their lives and made them a better person.

I love authors, i love the other that teach good things in their books and don't spread the word of hate. My favorite authors are Alice Walker, Kevin Brooks, Alex Sanchez,Anne Rice,Stephanie Meyer just to name a few, because their way of writing sends a message and i admire books like that. My three absolute favorite books would manly be from Kevin Brooks because i can relate to the writing more and the views he puts in his characters my age, so i can real ate instantly. Best book he's ever written Candy. Best books from Alex Sanchez are the Rainbow Boys series, plus he's a gay writer which is interesting because I'd never read work written by a gay author before(I've read all his books). Best book from Alice walker is obviously The Color Purple(I've read it 7 times).I don't discriminate with books, trust me. It took me a long time before i read hood books by authors like Zane. "The Coldest Winter Ever" by Sistah Souljah is one of the best books I've read so far.

I believe books should sometimes never be made into movies because when it does it's not special anymore and they always ruin stuff or leave out the best parts, like for example... Why is Debbie in the Cirque Du Freak movie white instead of black? And why is he 16 in the movie when in the book he's 12 and later in the end looks 16? Books get ruined when it becomes a movie but i still love them, it's sort of like candy in a way. u have to enjoy the packet for your self until someone else sees it and it gets shared with the rest. it sucks sometimes, but hey it's life. Book quotes will always get me. Best quote i ever read in a book is the quotes....

Folk Tradition

To honest coming from an Africian culture through my parents, we don't have many traditions that we do except a few. In our culture when you get a job you have to donate your first check to charity as good, so i guess goodbye $235.00 i made at age 16 at my first job. But it paid off later cuz there were aq few situations where i could have been let go but i wasn't. I feel we make trations for our own reason. like Christmas is a world wide tradition but every celebrates it in their own way which makes it special. My family every christmas eve bake cookies and watch a christmas movie together as a family but i feel kind of bad becuase i've broken it 3 times in a row now becuase i never like the movies they pick,but is the tradition not special? Traditions are created for specific reasons, not becuase it's a "tradition"

How "REAL!?" Is Reality TV?

Basically to prove a point in this blog, Reality television is nothing but flesh eating ways to get people's attention to watch their how. Most Reality television in my opinion is just ignorance like what every popular example is "Flava of Love". Excuse my french but the show is just about a reject rapper that looks like a monkey on crack trying to find true love which in my opinion is bull! Reason why is because the show just like other shows like "Charm school" get the stereotypical African American woman who wears long nails, ugly weave, blonde hair, like pigs feet and basically look like prostitutes with probably two baby daddy's. Then there's the "The Surreal life" where i'm supposed to watch a bunch of broke celebrity rejects and one hit wonders try to get famous again after my genertion don't even know who they are, they're basically a bunch of losers. Not to sound harsh but that's all it is. Then you have the "Rock of Love" where fifteen sluts along with maybe two black chicks(I'm sorry if it may sound racist or something, i just hate it when i see black people on a white reality show)want an 80's rock star, go through all these fights and bar drinking moments to find out later at the reunion "oh sorry babe, i thought i wanted you but i didn't" I'm not trying to say that reality shows are all fake but some reality shows are actually interesting and some have lost their edge. I remember i actually had a talk with my mom about how i couldn't stand the real world and my actually said that the Real World was her favorite show when i was still in diapers because at the time the show was real about actual people and she even told me about a gay Aids person in the house and it's affect on the other house members. she said the person also died as soon as the last episode aired. She actually quoted, "Back then the Real world was real but i don't know what wrong with your generation now cause now when i see it on tv it's depressing because it's all about partying and getting drunk, and hooking up." And then you have the show Bad Girls and Tila Tequila which just finds something new to attract us to find out that they're still all fake in their own way but season 2 of both shows were good!

Maybe reality television just stopped getting real at some point and just got "Fake Real" meaning it's real people but they're all fake just trying to show off for tv. I like shows like "Top Model" but i think it's losing it's edge even though i've been watching the show since i was 12, i've seen every season. I wanna study theatre soon and i want to be in the fashion industry if i get the chance and from the show, I've learned that the modeling industry is no joke, people are always gonna try to sabotage you at some point and that's that i've learned watching it. "Project Runway" is also teaching me that(I love Heidi Klume!).I just wish that it could be real like "Keisha Cole the way it is" or "Tiny and Toya". Right now i'm actually watching Real Housewives of Orange County and it's interesting, never seen it before but all i know is that i really don't like Kim. She seems like a Gold digger and who the heck is Big Poppa? Nene is a B@#$! Sheree is full of herself, Oh i like Kandi! well i've always liked her since the group Xscape. The show has got me hooked becuase it drew my attention becuase it was about african american women with huge wealth in their resected towns just like the other house wives, which is rare. The show looks real right now but later on i have to observe if it's fake real or just real drama, plus the fights are good.

But anyways getting off topic Reality tv is just something to get our attention with something we relate too. I watch "Tiny and Toya" cause i do have some realtive issues, not as bad as theirs but i can relate, Tyra is teching me what to do and avoid in the fashion industry and i'm also learning i'm not going to spoil my kids like "My super sweet 16". Reality shows teach me things and just make me laugh, it's ironic in a way. Well... thanks for reading!.....

Here's a legendary Top Model moment...
