5 Straight Outta Compton Quotes That Relate To College

If you've ever seen the movie "Straight Outta Compton" then you know how inspiring it really can be. Besides the gangsta women, weed and unending raps - the message behind the story really shows how life is just nuthin but a 'g' thang. College can seem like it's an incomparable sense of craziness, but these "Straight Outta Compton" quotes are so relatable in college.

1. "Open the door man, c'mon open the door."

Please, professor, I know I'm 30 minutes late to class and look like I haven't slept in days, but if you would just let me in this one time and let me take this test!

2. "Y'all mf need to be gang bangin' them books instead of tryna be something y'all aint."

Time to get your ass in check and focus on school. Quit the partying every night, quit trying to talk to different girls every night and remember what you're paying all this money for.

3. "'50 dollars makes you rich?' 'It's a start.'"

I know I have $8.00 in my bank account, but that leaves enough for a shot in Buckhead AND food on the way back, I'm set.

4. "You don't care what I'm fighting for. I already know what I want to do with my life and it definitely ain't sitting in no cubicle on a bullshit ass job."

I know my major seems way too hard, I know it seems crazy that I'm actually going to school to be able to travel the world, but I promise I will not be sitting in an office at a desk for the rest of my life.

5. "Do whatever the f*ck you gotta do."

Professor, if you really feel like you can't bump that 89.34 to a 90 I understand, but just know I hate you and I'm rating you terribly on rate my professor, cause I gotta do what I gotta do.

I love "Straight Outta Compton" and it's not just because they are complete bad-asses, but because they took all of their struggle and turned it into some awesome careers and absolutely amazing records. They took the quote "started from the bottom now we here" to a whole new level. Ice Cube wrote the track "Boyz-In-The-Hood" and it changed their lives forever. Dr. Dre sold his beats to apple for $620 million and if that isn't inspiring then go watch the movie and tell me how inspired you are then.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
