1-of my biggest regrets is not going to a HBCU. Different World was *my show* They used to have 3-hour Re-run Marathons on Saturday Mornings on Bounce. I'd wake up & have breakfast with Jalesa, Whitley, Dwayne, Ron, Kimberly,, Freddie, Walter, Colonel Bradford & nem. Who can forget the *"No Means No"* Episode😱.

The whole logistics of the show,,,,,, was indeed to go to college,,,,,(HBCU)!,,,,, Growing up while having fun doing so,,,,,, which no doubt the gang did,,,,,, we all wish we could go back in time and relive our (youth) weather in high school or college,,,,, some of the best times in our lives,,,, as young kids growing up,,,,, we learned so much in the process,,,,,, only to learn and understand,,,,, that it truly is a different,,,,,(from where we come),,, Growing up in the 90s,,, what an decade 💯🏫 for going to School 📕📚✏️

Like Momma said . . . "If you ain't 'gon do it right --- don't do it at all!" You 💩 on an Academy Award winner; the actual star of the show; and a comedian who was soooo Bad it was a Sin!

[@really8930]

Age is a “bitch” isn’t it? We are born; we grow; we procreate; we age; we die. We are remembered by family for a generation or two. Then we pass out of living memory. As though we had never lived. So, whilst we are here we might as well enjoy life to the fullest extent we can. 😊
