The Friendship

How does it feel to be cool, popular person in school? I often wonder why I, myself, Im a simple kind of girl shytype since elementary school. I belong to the so-called "uncool" people who find themselves around the dark corners of the campus, looking with envy at the coolest, as you flip your hair, show their cute accessories and talk to people on other aqually popular on campus.

It 'hard to accept that I can not be like them. I can not capture the attention just walking down the aisle. I can not be cool because I do not wear the latest trends or the latest mobile phone use. I could not be cool even if my life depended on it.

Being yourself is cool is my mom once said. And 'how to take your clothes do not like your clothes you carry. No matter if the dress is from Paris or ukay-ukay. He also told me that these people are just as cool envy me outside may look calm and poised, but inside their insecurities are eating out, bigtime.

Once in my life I tried to act cool as these people. I copied the way they dress, talk and walk. I get noticed? I did become popular? Duh! of course not! Not only did I prove to be a big joke, I also lost my identity and had also marked the second rate, trying, script, Arrrgghh! I felt like I was in the movie, but not as Shawe Ate .. I was a walking punchline.

So, since then, I attached myself easily. I learned my lesson the hard way. It is not important if they are fresh or not, what matters is how you appreciate and be confident with who you are and what you have.

I also learned that these people are not as cool cool at all. Would not it be boring if everyone watching every move you make? You can not just be yourself at any time. You must ensure that every little action you wiil live up to others expectations of you. You must look pretty all the time or your so-called friends abandon you. These people may seem cool Gooood sooooo ..... but their attitude could be run up and down, thinking about what to do so that their crowns will not be torn out as wannabe cool. Horror! Sounds fear, eh?

Well, maybe just not be so bad. Atleast, I can eat whatever I want without worrying about ruining my figure. I can do anything without those eyes look stupid and, above all, I'm sure I'll be true friends to me through .... thick and thin
