the first mixed cd i ever made was at rob's house in 12th grade. we called it mix masta mel. we were so gangster!
anyway... i stalk an old acquaintances blog (sshhh, they dont know) and they recently posted some quotes from Ice-T's memoirs. some awesomely awesome advice i want to keep handy somewhere other than a book marked internet favorite.
and i felt like sharing.
behold the wisdom of Ice-T:
:: life isn't about the material things you own. there's no luggage rack on a hearse. it's about the exceptional experiences you have.
:: it's not about being mad at everything, it's about being really mad at the right things.
:: sometimes we choose to reject good advice because it's not what we want to hear. remember, medicine doesn't taste good.
:: no man can be great alone, no matter what he thinks. you're only great when good people speak of you in high regard.
:: never confuse popularity with respect.
:: slow motion is better than no motion, and low profile is better than no profile.
bonus tracks - oldies but a goodies from my old man (not a gangsta) -
:: excuses are excuses and action is reality
:: persevere little sister
hope you guys have exceptional weekends :)
