Hey you guys! I'm sorry I haven't been posting lately! It has been SO busy! I have a seriously sick family member so I have been spending some time with them. But I do have a nice piece planned for you guys. I'm very opinionated on it. It is: Popularity!
My views on popularity... who really cares? The air headed popular guys? Wow they seem like keepers! What I'm saying is, why does being popular even matter? Will it matter in 30 years when life is completely dependent on the decisions you have made? Nope! Won't make a dent! Will the size of you're paycheck be on the line if you don't get these new shoes? I seriously doubt it! And do you know why? Because, actually, no body cares! As I, the nerd, see it popularity is really just insecurities. The need to be above everybody else to function. Having to know you're the best (looking) in order to go on. And doing anything to make sure you stand in this position. Are you really so insecure about your face you need to change it? Or so insecure about you're height? Or you're hair? Or even you're feet? Now don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with wanting to look pretty. But there is a huge difference in complimenting yourself, and changing yourself. HUGE! And do you want to be the person who looks like they dislike them selves so much they NEED to be changed?
What IS popularity? 'Dating' the hottest guy in school (the airhead you must tolerate for the rest of you're life?) Spending all your money on the hottest trends (Guaranteeing you have no college money?) Pushing others down so that you may stand taller (Ya, you may be the pretty one, but who TRULY likes you?) Personally, I do not want to be that person. I am most definitely fine sticking with the nerds! I don't even want to be popular , and I'm sure I never will be. And I do not tolerate them either. I want to be the one who knows how to say no. Who likes the herself and who she is becoming. Who isn't afraid to sit with the new kid at lunch. The question is- Is that you? Is that who you WANT to be?
Well, as usual, I have a little challenge for you guys! When school starts- Be yourself. Don't worry about popularity. Think about the future consequences - Not only the present, and most certainly not the past. Comment on here, our Facebook, or our Twitter about yours goals this year, or a story of something selfless you have done, and you will have a chance to get acknowledged on our Facebook! 3...2...1... GO!
