Note from Jade: It took persistence and hard ass grinding from couch hopping to making it across the country to one of the finest HBCUs this country has to offer. It took so many silent tears, shattered hopes, hungry nights, I give ups and nothing ass FAMILY to get me to where I am. I'm not rich. I'm not perfect. I'm working on it though. I bet the next person that tries to stop me will not prosper. I will make it above and beyond whatever obstacles wanna get in my way. I believe in myself more than anyone else could. No one will get in the way of my goal. Whether it be my dad's dream for me to become a lawyer, or my dream to sing and dance.
