Has school changed your view on how you see yourself? Has school shaped you to be the person you are today- way deeper than education. We talk about the people we surrounded ourselves with through middle and high school. We also discuss our natural hair and why we chose to fall into the peer pressure of wanting to change ourselves.. sadly..
"You always wonder how do these kids fall into drugs.. smoking and all this stuff and people will say "peer pressure"... we never got peer pressured into doing that, but when it came to accepting ourselvevs we fell into it." - Lily (in this episode)
