אני קושית יפה/I’m a Cute Black Girl Pg 33

When it came to school I was always… and when I wasn’t my M.O was to make that teacher fall in love with me.

You would think after matriculating almost 18 years ago and having overcome all the tribulations I have over the past 3 1/2 decades I wouldn’t be so bothered about not fully being the Teacher’s Pet.
