The need to stand out a little didn't go over well with my grandmother. Standing out and being part of the crowd was silly in his eyes. This lifestyle came with a change in wardrobe and attitude. My grandmother was a little old school when it came to fashion. Showing any type of skin was definitely a no-no under our roof. The most tortuous situations were when it came time for school shopping. While all my friends chose their own clothes, my grandmother chose mine. Needless to say, I didn't stay in the crowd long
