To all my homies, brethren, family, and teachers, this is to announce to you that I am fed up and I am dropping out.
I am dropping out of that system that got me hypnotized while it took me on a walk down the valley of lies.
I am dropping out of that process that always had excuses for not being able to curtail my excesses.
I am dropping out of a Citadel that was so much hyped for her good Intel, yet couldn't keep me longer than a Duracell.
I am dropping out of that Crib that cared so much about how much I could give but cared less about what prompted my grief.
I am dropping out of that Long building that focused more on its painting than how good it built Me.
I am dropping out of that beautiful Limo that couldn't drive me to my Condo.
I am dropping out of that Babe that wanted me for a date, but felt I ain't good to be Wed.
I am dropping out of those friends that stayed close for the gains but didn't stay close in my pains.
I am dropping out of those Homes that couldn't accommodate my goals.
I am dropping out of my fear, because they wouldn't get me there.

The truth about their truth is that everything they said were lies. I was told that short girls can't win Pageants, not until I learnt that the winner of Miss Honduras Universe 2012, Miss Jennifer Andrade was a super short model of 1.54metres.
They said you can't be successful without a university degree, I humbly agreed, but no more, because I spent nights studying journals and biographies of successful men like Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg and Steve Jobs, but I never found a university degree in their long list of accomplishments.
Then I realised, people would always tell you things based on how it worked for them, you alone know how it work for you.
If where you are makes less of who you are, it's high time you dropped out. And in the long run you would realize that it was a glorious exit.
