[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

In light of recent events and the majority of the cB community generally wanting to bring together a closer community, I took the liberty of re-starting a thread that BrandonSaunders started a while ago. I thought a new one should be made, to start fresh and new and this way we could all get closer. I think this is one of the few topics where we SHOULD have a version 2/3/4 and so on, because it's a topic where I am asking, as Brandon asked that we all share stories and opinions and feelings and interact.

Reference to his topic, and ideas of questions and such to ask can be found here : http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...=115046&hl=


As Brandon said :

For the most part, most of us are nothing more than screennames and links to networking and blogging mediums.

Lets take the opportunity to get to know each other. Feel free to ask someone (in here) a few questions about them; something that has always interested you about the person. Try to maintain proper decorum, but make an effort to reach out to someone instead of wondering what someone is really like.

I'm an open book. So I guess yous can all start by asking me something.

This should be fun...

This time, you could start by asking me something, or asking someone else something that you've always itched to ask about.



Im Isabella. Im 14 going on 15, but people usually mistake me for somebody 16-19. Not really because I have an 'old' looking face but because of my general appearance and demeanor. I know online i seem childish and immature to many of you, but that's becase this is the internet and I dont give a f**k. But to people I know in person, they see me as very mature and grown. Maybe it's because of events in my life that have made it hard for me to have a normal childhood. For instance, I used to find solace in gang life and activity because I thought it was somewhere I could fit in and find respect and power but then my long term boyfriend and whom i believe to be my first love was shto and murdered and I realized this wasn't the life I wanted to lead, living each day worrying whether or not it would be my last or if I'd wake up tomorrow. I was molested, physically and sexually abused by 2 different boyfreinds and a friend of a friend. I look for love and reassurance in all the wrong places because my parents are ... the epitome of a failed marriage. All i have known from my parents is hatred. All they do is fight and yell and take it out on the children. Im also not exactly poor but yet, my family barely manages to live paycheck to paycheck. Any questions ? Does anyone want me to go into depth about the gangs, the abuse experiences, the family ? Feel free to ask questions.

resurrected thread!

um.

i remember we had one of these a whle back...

My name's Phuc and I'm 14, but I turn 15 in August. I'm silly sometimes and i can be pretty serious, too. I was born in Long Xieng, Vietnam and at about 3, I moved from their to the states. I lived in sacramento from then until last year, when i moved south to the suburbia of Elk Grove. I grew up in poor apartment complexes, but I was a good boy. :D My parents were strict and I don't remember having to many friends. I think it was because I was the fat kid. ...the whores...

I went to a slightly bad school. It wasn't THAT bad though. At about 3rd grade, the school told me I was smart, but I was too young to really grasp the gravity of it. I was more widely known from their on, and got a lot more friends, contrary to the stereotype of everybody hating the smart kid. I helped all the kids with the school work, so I guess that was why. But my social side was also growing.

In 5th grade, I was crazy about this girl who did not like me. I thought we might have something, but sadly, no. She moved away without giving me her number or any contact info. And it wasn't until 2 years later I got back into contact with her. That was the major drama of my elementary days.

Fast forward, and now I like to listen to music and read. I'm on the computer way too much. But this summer, I've been exercising daily, so that makes me feel better about myself. uhhh. i'm bad at describing myself. >.>
