Lydia's Story
Life
7/21/2007
Starrett City in the house! Let me stop I am now 32 years old and have lived a wonderful well rounded life. I was born in Brooklyn to Jamaican parents the youngest of 6 children. I WAS AND AM JAMAICAN, from WHEN IT WAS NOT COOL. (Now it's a fad, it's my blood line, yu dig?)
SHOUT OUT TO MY JONAS BLOODLINE JAMAICA ALL DAY. BIRDIELYN "MOTHER" DECORDAVA-JONAS AND MELBRO THOMAS (MY 2 GRANDMA'S)R.I.P WE MISS YOU DEARLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you remember my brother Charlton/JJ with the flat top? We moved many times, I went to elementary school in Starrett City; 3rd grade = Mr. Smith. (Shout out to Tag Aziz, Monique Camacho, Nara, Abdul Bailey, Nasheen Bartell, Kyle Zimmen(remember that fist fight we had, I am still sorry, you made me mad?) and Vincent Garcia) 4th grade = Mr. Hoffman. In the middle of the year we moved to Queens I was crushed after having all those friends. I went to PS 121Q (for 4th - 6th grade)(R.I.P. Dwayne Gripper- my 5th and 6th grade best friend). (Shout out to Gary Bourne, Anthony Mason, Chris Gosley, Eugene White, Danielle Leggett and Javanie Williams) after the 6th grade moved back to Starrett City.

Medgar Evers CUNY in Brooklyn. I have lived in Oregon, lived and visited Jamaica, visted and partied in Washington State, Canada, Las Vegas, Arizona, Texas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Maryland, Washington DC; and I think I am forgetting some places; because I love to travel. I now live in Virginia for the past 7 years. I have a 4 year old son. My mom is still in Starrett so I am always in the old neighborhood when I am in town. Starrett is now called Spring Creek Towers, and it has lost it's beauty and security. I was always proud to say where I lived at because it was so nice, now it's the hood. I still wear glasses, have my beautiful smile with my good heart, warm spirit and sparkling personailty. Alot has not changed. I still love to run my mouth, still crazy, stush with a tiny pinch of ghetto in me.
F.Y.I. No disrespect to those who went through or is going through- "I have never been on drugs, stole from love ones, and dont have the "monster" and basically did not mess up my life. Just so you know"
R.I.P Anthony "Boobie" Birt (Starrett), Victor "Easy"(Starrett), Shannel Jones (Boulevard/Linden), Rambo (do I have to say any more GRAPHICS?),Jasun W."Half A Mil" (Graphics),David "JR - with the glasses and big head" (Graphics), Daniel "Decapone" Brandon (Bushwick/Decepticon),Carlito "Ricocon", Sean Davis and his brother Gary Davis (Linden Houses) and the many others we grew up with and they are no longer with us. My mind is blank right now I can't remember them all.
Much Love Lydia
