i dont want to fit in any categories. i am really sick of the human race at the moment. first theres the people that think theyre the coolest thing since sliced bread because they wear what's in, listen to whats in and watch whats in. i am seriously getting annoyed at some STUPID girls at school that think theyre "all that" cuz they watch mtv and are obsessed w/ their asses thinking theyre so sexy. when i say i dont watch a certain show that they watch or something they freak out and alienate me. so **** them. then, theres ppl that start out like that but suddenly they are just SOO not preps cuz theyre PUNK dude. they totally wear ties and listen to avril. so hardcore. then theres ppl who try to be cool by rebelling against both categories. trying to be all depressed and gothic. saying theyre suicidal and they hate every1 over something stupid that 1 or 2 ppl did. calling themselves freaks and saying they hate their lives. it makes me sick.

well im in a group of friends that i joined in 7th grade [theyve been together since 4th grade] and i have friends outside of them. i rebel against popularity. i usually dress preppy but i dont really have a preppy mind. my friends are into some things that make me wanna throw up but i dont diss em about it.

back in junior high I use to be really popular and I hung out with all the popular people and stuff but ever since I got into high school It has gone down. I'm not a loser outcast though, I guess you could say I'm in the middle. I sorta hang out with everyone!

I like your Carroll O'connor tribute in your siggy! Love that guy!

I am anything BUT popular. I'm a geek and I like it that way.

That describes me exactly. I have a couple of good friends and a couple of "on-and-off" friends. But for the most part, I am considered pond scum, so I just stay within myself.

Don't feel that you're a loser, though. The people who make fun of you or shun you for being different - they're the losers.

I'm like an outsider own group that are going to bring down the government, revolutionise music and stop war, animal cruelty, the death penalty and Irish people- if we have time. It's true.

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 06-10-2003, 03:59 PM

I guess I'm in between. I'm not a dork but I'm not popular either...probably a result of me being shy. But I could care less what group I'm in anyway, I have friends I can relate to and that's all that matters. I hate that whole "classification" thing anyway, preps, punks, etc. Why should you be judged by the way you're dressed...and it's not just that, kids try to change their whole attitude cause they think it's cool.

Anyways, I can say this, I might dress "preppy" but I don't have a "preppy" attitude at all...

animalcrackers · 06-10-2003, 04:41 PM

I just had a few friends that I hung around with in high school, but mostly I was and still am basically a loner. I really have never fit in with anybody. I did play a lot of sports and went out and have traveled, but I love being a homebody too.

Swimfan85 · 06-10-2003, 04:52 PM

I dont know, haha, im a really complicated person

well, I am in between, just the normal everyday person, but I guess I have friends and I am friendly with people who are considered, "popular" but they arent the ones I always hang out with. Me and my cloestest friends we are just the typical teens, pretty smart, I dress preppy I think most my clothes are Abercrombie (or according to my friends ALL) but they are wrong since I was wearing Puma today and Express the other day

but neways, I dont act the typical "prep" sterotype, I me, Im chill, out-going, I enjoy sports and I even say the occasional smart comment

WELL I DONT KNOW, you can figure it out if you really care and give me a buzz

I just think I'm a loser for different reasons. I also think everyone around here where I live is a loser anyway. You'd have to live here to know what I mean. I don't really care if they like me or not I always did get along better with the guys because the girls were too prissy and hung up on themselves to actually be good friends with anyway.

Titania · 06-10-2003, 05:13 PM

There really arent "popular" and "unpopular" groups at my school as i see it. There are just different groups of friends and all, but everyone pretty much talks to everyone else.

In middle school it was different- I was in a clique of reallyreally snobby girls who looking back i dont know how i stood them

High school I left their group and made my own friends- some are "band nerds" you could say, others in drama, I honestly dont know how "popular" I am, I have quite a few friends, get along w/ most people, a couple enemies, its good.

ILuvJoandBlair · 06-10-2003, 05:14 PM

I'm in between popular and dorky. I mean, I have a lot a assossiates but few friends at school.

I know I am proud to be a dork!

Holly is a dork!

See, I'm a self-proclaimed dork.

brownsocks · 06-10-2003, 05:42 PM

me and my friends don't fit any group really. i guess you'd say we are outsiders but we all have lots of friends. i am the brains of our mismatched band of misfits. and really the only voice of reason. even if i do all the stuff with them. i have "popular" friends but i could care less how many people look up to them and no one can ever bring me down like they used to. being popular is not the greatest thing like so many people think. i'm happy being myself even if that mean being a nerd.

i'd rather be smart and hated then dumb as a brick and the most popular guy in school.

Kay Scarpetta · 06-10-2003, 06:11 PM

K-6th... I was a grade A outcast. Tried to fit into cliques... never ever worked. Lotta hurt feelings.

7-8 grade in my new school? Aren't many cliques at ALL... everyone just usually hangs with their own group of friends. I'd say I'm pretty popular. I know a LOT of kids in that school and I'm more like a friend to teachers than students. Not to mention there's one person who I'm close to outside of school... but anyway... I'm know as the 'smartass' of the 8th grade. Literally. I mean idiots use me for their homework answers.... but it's not like I give in to them. I just go tell them to read a book. lol.

But sometimes when my friends come to me, I push them away... because I'm a weirdo-loner/popular-bitch. I enjoy being alone, and most of the time I don't even like people. I have to be in a very good mood for me to actually be in a group of people.

So as of now I'm in the "weirdo-loner/popular-bitch" group.
