There was no mexicans in the hood where I grew up , and it was definitely ghetto :-D
#1 RULE, You are not from the ghetto if you have to TRY TO ACT LIKE YOU ARE FROM THE GHETTO!!! That was THE worst thing about rich kids that went to Hampton and tried to act like they grew up poor and they was hood... The cats that was really from the hood usually kept it low key.

Haha that's true... My best friend to this day, guess what his name is?
"Pookie" haha. It's funny cause out of all my friends, only like 2 of us graduated or even went to college, but I'm still cool with all my old friends from the hood, so sometimes when we go on college tours for HBCU Connect Pookie rolls with us... And you know one of the funny things I heard that cat say? He saw the AKAs steppin' at Hampton's homecoming and he was like,
"Yea, see... If I had of went to college, I woulda had me one of them ... "
like they was some kind of objects or somethin hehe
You ain't ghetto if your parents bought you a new car when you was in high school... sh@t you was lucky if mom and pops let you drive the station wagon to the football games on Friday nights playa. hahaaa :?
^^^ 1. Chill, Megan! Of course Mexicans are in your ghetto. It's Texas! Every state doesn't have lots of Mexicans, you know.
2. Chill, Megan! Ain't nobody said anything about you being rich or ghetto. Admin graduated 10 years ago... he's clearly not talking about you. It's true you shouldn't prejudge people, but I get what he's saying too. I've seen people who either pretend to be hood or are desperately holding on to their distant ghetto roots. I'm not saying that's you tho, Megan. I don't know you enough to say that.
Me? I'm not from the ghetto. Never have been. Strangely, my family has ghetto tendencies here and there, even though my parents aren't even from America. I guess some of it comes more from being dirt poor than from living in the hood.
