I chose this life
It doesn’t matter how slow you go, as long as you don’t stop.
—Wisdom of Confucius
Fabolous Concert in Toronto
I did what they told me to do. I wet to college and graduated in the very top of my class. Now I’ve got debt and a fancy piece of paper.
I cannot find employment. I’m over-qualified and under-qualified at the same time.
I had to move in with my mother because I couldn’t afford food or rent.
My mother is working 50+ hours a week and we’re constantly worried about foreclosure in the house we’re upside down in.
We can’t afford health insurance or dental insurance. We hope daily that nothing happens.
Nothing is right.
We are the 99%.
And we’re pissed.
Follow wearethe99percent.
I present to you all my new angry driving song. “Move Bitch” by Ludacris just ain’t cutting it no mo’.
Now that I’ve (hopefully) gotten a chuckle from you, I just want to remind you that we at Ladies are just a bunch of clueless ruffians. There, I said it. I’m just a student trying to get my degree. I know shit about music. I study biology and French, not the music industry or theory. There’s going to be a bit of an attitude change taking place here at Ladies. This project has been going on for three years and counting. Somewhere along the way, the “fun factor” shriveled up and died. We’re going to try to revive that. For me, it starts with saying this: FUCK SKRILLEX AND DUBSTEP. IT’S 2011, PEOPLE. LET THAT SHIT GO. AND IF YOU HAVEN’T LISTENED TO “COUNTDOWN” BY BEYONCE YET THEN YOU’RE MISSING OUT ON THE BEST SONG OF 2011.
