I grew up a really shy kid, but I always surrounded myself with a lot funny people. It depends on the day - if I feel like being quiet, I will be. I'm not a complete goofball, though.
From Manny Montana
You can't always be the jokester and the doormat.
Honestly, with me, as long as I have a park to play basketball in, I'm pretty cool.
I grew up in the hood, and I was raised to hate cops. But then, I started to realize that they're people, and they have lives, too.
My friends told me that it's the hardest thing to separate the personal life from their work.
People usually spend the first two months playing themselves up, not really being themselves. You waste those two months - and then they tell you, 'You're not who I was dating the first month!'
I'm from Long Beach - not the best area in the world - and I had a lot of ghetto friends growing up.
I come from an area where it's mostly, like, football and basketball, those are the sports. So my brother started surfing... I used to make fun of him for it, and then he challenged me to do it, and I'm a huge competitor, and I did it ,and I got hooked.
When you're young, it's all about the society of school and being cool, but they don't understand that somebody can be different and live a different lifestyle and still be a regular person. I was the same way when I was a kid.
If you're driving, and a cop is behind you, you automatically think they're going to pull you over, but cops have so much more going on than to think about pulling you over. The last thing a real cop wants to do is write a ticket. That's the truth.
