Skater? Hipster? Indie? Glee? Nerd?
Welcome to
high school. This week I've been talking a
hell of a lot about school life, girlfriends, etc. So, I'm just gonna continue the trend
until Monday where of which I will have a
completely different train of thought. Most of my readers are in
some sort of school setting -- university, high school, junior high -- so you can
all pretty much relate to
most of the things I've been discussing. If you can't, I undoubtedly know that in this one you
will. A
cliche is a saying, expression, idea, or element of an artistic work which has been
overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect, rendering it a
stereotype. In school it's the thing that haunts you or traps you into this little group of people that
ultimately can't get out of. You sure as hell can try but
High School Musical is pure fiction. You can't jump on some tables, burst into song and expect everyone to follow.
Realistically, if
you did this in school you have just committed an
official act of social suicide. Cliche's are present everywhere. Your classified by the clothes you wear, what you do after school, if you can toss a football, if your cool or uncool. It's like,
dividing up kids
based on their beliefs and opinions. You can't hang out with the other kids because you don't fit. You were given a place to belong so you
should stay in that place.
Fuck that! You should be
free to do whatever you want.
Tell people where you belong. Break down those
stupid fucking social barriers and hang out with the nerds, have a conversation with those metal heads, punch a jock in the throat for all I care. No one can tell you you can't.
I think cliches are stupid. I'd hope
everyone would think they're stupid. No one is gonna
tell me who
I can hang out with and I'm Lucky enough to go to a school where everyone is
accepted in most groups. Why can't you get good grades and still throw a football? Who made that group of kids cool? No one but
someone's gonna have to tell them, they're
not.
