why is it that when someone is trying to make something of themselves by going to college and all that some people start saying they selling out or trying to act white and all that?"I've lived too long with pain. I won't know who I am without it. We have to leave this place, I am almost happy here."

Loif:
I'm from the interior of BC, believe it or not. I used to go fishing with my Grandfather for 2 weeks out of the year when I was younger, off the coast of Kitimat.You sound like a Maritimer. No I'm not one, I'm in Alberta. I have been there though (Corner Brook NF) and have family down that way.
That's where I picked up the expression.
Glad to have brightened your day.
