In high school, were you the one that got left out and didn't fit in with the other kids? Well, I definitely was! I didn't like high school at all. It all came down to money and popularity. I couldn't afford the newest, coolest clothes so I wasn't accepted by the majority. I can remember being so proud because my mom said I could get one pair of jeans from Brass Buckle. I thought, "Woo Hoo, I can be cool for once!" When I got to school, I was informed that a few other girls already had a pair of jeans just like those. So I was behind with the current trend again! I couldn't win for nothing. So after I graduated from high school, I swore that I could care less whether or not I saw my classmates ever again. I didn't go to my ten year class reunion, and I really considered going to the next class reunion. I am pretty sure that is a big no no now because I was reminded how superficial and mean my classmates can be. I figured I would extend the friendly branch to a few of my classmates. I tried to add a few to Myspace. One of my classmates accepted my invitation and I thought maybe I was making progress. Then, yesterday I found out she deleted me as a friend. Once again, that dagger was stabbed right in my back. I am back to my first philosophy, and that is I am me and I am not going to change for anyone! If that means, I never see my classmates again, so be it!
