Let me tell you about my favorite mistake,

My favorite mistake was when i traded my favorite pair of jordans for some white Air Forces. A dude texted me on instagram that he liked the shoes i had on in one of my pictures.

       

I told him i would trade them for the white Air Force Nikes he had on in his picture. We both agreed, so we met up at the Meadowview Light rail Station.


I waited for about 10 minutes and in those 10 minutes i had millions of thoughts going around my head. I was thinking about leaving before he got there, so that i wouldn’t  give him the shoes. Right when i was about to leave, I see a white car pulling up. In my head i was like,”ohh crap.” I had no other choice then to trade the shoes because i didn’t want to be messed up.

He handed me the shoes, so i handed him mines. “ The shoes are fake,” I said playing around.

       They better not be “, he said laughing.

     I checked the shoes and said,” they look good”


When i got home i realized i had made a mistake because they were my favorite pair  and i couln’t get them back. Since then i realized not to get rid of something that is important no matter how old they are they are still valuable.
