"My friend's brother went up North a few years back, right. And he was playing in the minor leagues for some shitty team. Well he rode that out for a good few years, but then he knocked his girl up and they ended up buying a house down the street from where his parents lived.
And my sister, she moved out to Washington for school, but she ended up transferring to UNCW her second year. Said she couldn't take it or some shit.
Me, I'm gonna stay right here. NC State is right up the road, got a homecooked meal whenever i need it. It ain't so bad a gig, and besides, if you ever do leave, you either come back a CHAMP or you come back a CHUMP
but you end up coming back either way."
loosely, a story told to me by a high school friend.
fuck that shit. don't know how much longer i'll be here, but in the meantime, i can at least enjoy the inspiration i get from downtown.
for a second i thought this was your story, whewwww!
