In the eyes of a preteen...

cliques.

                  We've all been there. We've all been in one, we've all been excluded from one. Who knows? We have probably all excluded some one from our own.

yep, i'm talking about cliques.

                   Everyone has that one group they look at and just wish they were in it.  The way I see it there are two groups, popular, and non-popular. every non-popular wishes they were popular, and every popular, was at  one point, a non-popular. so why do we do this? we are human. that's why. we strive to have everyone like us, but it just won't happen. EVER. Not everyone is going to like you and you have to except that. I guess that IS why we have cliques. we have a group of people we like, and people you wish liked you. 

                   Like, for example, I would give anything to be popular, But I'm not, And i never will be. That is, to everyone. I am popular among my own friends, and i wish that was enough. My hope that one day i will become a plastic-goWithTheFlow- FollowAllTrends-Barbie doll sickens me, but makes me feel like I'm full of bubbles about to spill over. So yes, cliques are complicated. But what Isn't?

maybe I'm not

Maybe I'm not

             Maybe I'm not like everyone else, and maybe I already know that. Maybe it was never you're place to tell me anyway. I mean after all, I never really asked, did I? Although i don't look like all the other barbies at this school, maybe I don't want to be. So, of course i know that the rumors are in no way true, but no body else does, And when it ruins somebody else's reputation... That's crossing a line. Especially when that person happens to be my best friend. why should it matter? Even if I was, which I am most definitely not. Say it with me now...

SEXUAL ORIENTATION DOES NOT MATTER!

once more,

SEXUAL ORIENTATION DOES NOT MATTER!

             So, that being said... MAYBE you should shut up. I never asked anyway....
