[Katie26713]

I’ve had the same thing said to me before about being mature for my age. When I was 14 I was often mistaken for a young college student. I think one reason people think your voice sounds ‘white’ is becasue you are more mature tahn some of the people you hang out with. Your hair also has nothing to do with being more ‘white’ than ‘black’. I know many of my African/American friends who have ‘smoother’ hair than others. It’s nothing to worry over. Your not a sellout. yeah you maybe be different but were all different no one person is alike. So don’t let those comments put you down about your race or the way you speak or your hair. Besides be happy you can swing your hair, it’s a good thing. Congradulations on being an honor student and it’s always good to have lots of friends! But the way you look and act isn’t everything, okay? Take advantage of your intelligence and focus on your studies and going to college and getting a great job. Those things will get you furthure than the straightest hair will. And someday maybe you’ll be one of those women on television!
