![]() Credits: 2,383 | Popularity in School Should you work your way up to the top if you want to be popular and basically kiss everyone's ass becuase the rewards would be worth it. Or stay completely original and don't care what they call you but you don't get invited to parties and you probably won't have any friends. Before you answer this question think about it:I know most people would say stay original but come on your life at school becomes miserable and you probably won't have any freinds and that's quite harsh, I mean it's ok to be shallow sometimes so you can be happy.

![]() ![]() Credits: 29,723 | Re: Popularity In School The entire time I was in high school I wasn't the most popular kid in school, nor was I miserable. I didn't have many friends, but the ones I did have were the kind that you stayed friends with for years afterwards. We were a close knit group who did everything together, and the time I spent with them were some of the happiest moments of my life, and I miss them all dearly (I currently live on the other side of the country from them) Also got some news for ya: High school isn't the end all be all of your life. Its only 3 or 4 years, and once its done, its done. You shouldn't worry yourself about being the most popular kid in school, be yourself and you'll be happy, cause while the popular kids look happy, chances are they're most likely as stressed out as you are about not being popular, if not more stressed out then you. Moral of the story: Don't try to be someone or something you are not. You'll only forget who you are in the process. --- MOD EDIT --- Changing the title of the thread

As for staying original, only a moron would think that being like someone else is a genius idea. I'm a original myself, I don't have many friends, not overly attractive, not in with the current "style" ( I literally have my own that NO ONE copies. And it's simple, dress shirt, dress slacks, tucedo vest, tie, and of course beat down converse. Look like a hitman until my shoes, which I will change eventually). Now I know MANY people who ARE original and have MANY firends, and of course doesn't overly matter. And PARTIES? Honestly you know your sad when you think parties matter, again won't get you a damn thing in life. As for me being who I am, I am...not overly miserable, not during school at least, well I kinda am miserable but that's for reasons that aren't even relavent to this topic.

Newbie | Re: Popularity in School hahaa this is awsome of you to ask. Well and my friend shadow or as you guy's know him gaarasandkiller1 he tought me that i can be me kiss now butt and still be popular. It's odd but if you show people you got no fear and you live life as you choose for people to see they'll wish they have what you do and if all goes well they will whant you around. as it turns out by just being me i get invited to nearly anything and i am never alone anymore i gues i owe it all to shadow tho if he didn't show me how great life can be i'd be the nobody that no one care's about if he had not shown me that^_^ let's not forget their is a goup for every type of person so friend's are easy to make |

![]() Credits: 25,330 | Re: Popularity in School Popularity in high school is completely stupid, moronic, and just plain puthetic. As Aleister said. "If your going to kiss ass, do it with your boss who will get you some where" popularity is nothing more then some one who likes attention for doing really stupid crap. It doesnt mean squat as the popular kid will soon have their butts ownd by the nerds and other lesser groups that are made fun of because they really work and have a goal in life, and are now the future bosses in life. High school sociel life and all that is a big joke. I have seen toddlers of the ages of 5 act more mature then high schoolers. I was never the popular person, infact, I really never counted my self nore my friends for that matter as part of any of the sociel group in the school because I knew even then that it was just plain idiotic. |

![]() Credits: 379 | I'm not popular, but i'm not a shy either. I'm just your everyday 11th grader who is trying to make it through school with my friends and keep my steady job. I don't see a point in being or acting some way that I'm not, just to impress the others of my school. If you don't like me at school, then don't bother me and i wont bother you. ![]()

![]() I wasn't down because I wasn't popular. It never really affected me at all. I had friends and that's all that matters. People knew me, but only because I did favors for people all the time. But I wasn't popular by any means. I just remained myself. Four years of popularity is like fifteen minutes of fame. You went in to high school a nobody (if you're popular between coming and going, good for you...) and you'll leave high school a nobody. When you go to college or to find a job, nobody's gonna care about how popular you were in high school. Hell, I don't care about how popular celebrities are, let alone somebody who was well known in a school.

![]() Credits: 49,132 | Re: Popularity in School As to many people before me here, popularity means nothing to me. I think it only brings complications- firstly, when you become popular, you have to keep the popularity in your hands, people start watching you more carefuly and it's easier to do a mistake, do something wrong... And how can you like being under watch all the time. I enjoy being a grey mouse, I can be what I want to be, it's great ![]() Ahh and thirdly, I just hate the popular company! They are so annoying! So evil! So unreal! I just really can't stand those people and they can't stand me!!! And when you are popular everyone is trying to talk to you! You can't get a minute of peace!! And you have to either be nice to everyone or play a meanie! annoying!!! And you can never know wether any of those people are really your friends... sheesh... I rather am what I am and where I am. I am happy too, I find many nice friends (who are REALLY my friends), I can dress how I want to dress and people won't talk behind me (they don't care! yay!). Ya and there is many other good stuff ^^ ![]() |
