happy 21st birthday allen youngjun cho! heart you homie!

here we are the bridges directors 07-08 layin on the grass like our peoples aint oppressed..like reality is perfect..like we dont give a shit bout no one..hahhaha..gloria, we shouldve pushed that girl in the blue summer dress down!!!! with her cute cruiser bike...ridin around campus in circles..ten times..aaaayy muxer why didnt we!?!?

i have to admit that it was pretty dope to just be able to kick it like that on the grass right next to the beach..people watching..talking about our families and how oppressive and conservative they can be at times..it was nice to lay in the grass..soak up the sun..and REAL TALK with one another. if only life was that simple..if only our peoples werent strugglin each and every day..if only..

how crazy is it that our families can be so conservative sometimes..and regardless of how much we try to educate and break shit down for them..its just difficult to (re)educate the miseducated..word to lauryn hill. its hard to break down decades and decades of oppression that our families..our parents..have internalized so deep deep deep within themselves. revolution really does start at home..the place where it is prolly most difficult to achieve.

i def can't wait till we all can just get cruiser bikes...ride around the campus in circles...lay on green grass and philosophize about life and the things that really matter..kick it forever and not give a shit bout nothin...till that day..the struggle continues.

the struggle continues..
