Because when I was little, I was poor. I was so poor I had to wear clothes that had been owned by three cousins before me. No one ever believed in me and the most they expected was that I'd get married and have someone to support the 12 kids they'd thought I'd have. I hated it and you know what? I did something about it. Everyone complained they didn't have as much as the white rich kids, but they never did anything about it.
That's all they did, complained. And I worked harder than everyone else there. And I know it's selfish, but I feel I deserve more. I earned what I have now and I find it unfair to live somewhere where everything is equal. I want them to say, "Wow, that chick worked hard." I want that six figure income and big house and I'm sick of when everyone gives more attention to the underachivers.
In my district, all the money seems to go towards helping the kids that aren't doing as well. What about me? I'd like special programs for me. I know I'm selfish person, but I don't care. Those are just my feelings. I just became a very bitter person over the years and I can't help it.
