The Clothes make THE MAN

Lets See....Ummmm Spitting Game for a CHANGE!!!


  • When I was a freshman transfer from a public school to a private school it took some time getting adjusted to the rules and norms. Everyone of them wore Jordans, Nikes, Addidas, and any type of name brand shoes. Me....Lol...Me on the other hand I was OCTAVIOUS THOMAS...NERD...I owned one pair of tennis shoes and they were my running shoes, and they consisted of 4 stripes, yes 4 stripes!!LOL...Everyone laughed and joked mainly becuase I wore plaid, khaki, polo's, polo shoes, and tim boots and button downs to class. But I didn't care, what they wore was weird to me Lol...THE LADIES EVEN LIKE WHAT THEY WORE!!! I didn't care though...But my HARMONES begin to kick in, and I wanted...NO I NEEDED a girlfriend so bad it hurt!lol...GET IT??? ANYWAY....I tried the conventional approach asking girls to dinner and a movie, they LAUGHED...can you believe it they laughed! here was the typical convo if your wondering!!!
    Octavious: Hey...umm..can I ask you something
    Girl: Sure, whats up?
    Octavious: Umm...can, well...will...no....Do you want to go to dinner and a movie?

Almost every BOP in school tried to holla at me. I didnt turn em down either yo!!!LOL 5...6...7 girls at one time I was living the AMERICAN DREAM(NO PUN INTENDED)... I felt 10,000,000 feet tall. The only point in time I got laughed at was when I made a joke! I was a class clown but oh well!!lol I had a 3.7 gpa so ummm yea.... HA! But yea... I guess the clothes gave me game cuz now conversations went like:

OK...I def wanna leave my comment on this one first!!

The first thing I thought of when I read this was how much I DID NOT like you when you were a Senior!! LOL ((which I later told you)) So I'm glad to read this and know that you felt like during your senior year you weren't your normal self!! Because I know we were pretty good friends, then once you did get a job and had some money in ya pocket, I guess other things became a priority!!

Anywho, I guess what I'm tryin to say is that...for me, the clothes didn't make you!! If anything, it changed you...but I'm glad that you came to your senses soon after and are now on ya grown man status!! So congrats!! and I'm glad I didn't lose a good friend :)
