Subject: school drama
At my school I am constantly getting judged by everyone. I'm pretty but obviously not THE PRETTIEST/HOTTEST whatever girl at my school and it kills me. everyone always talks shit and no one ever says anything nice to eachother. I go to the richest school in washington and everyone is stuck up rich kids. If you don't have the newest pair of sevens, citizens, true religions, juicy jacket, etc. then you arent popular. I keep up with all of this because my parents have money but I just am sick of it and want to know how to deal .

ok, you care what people think, thats my impression from what youve written. You stay on top of the brands to remain popular. Its not rich kids who bitch and talk, that happens in all walks of life.

I think you need to grow up, what you described is life. People talk and bitch about everyone, wheter theyre rich and popular or poor and a loser.

So you cant make it stop, you can only stop caring.

Get real. Seriously - that's my advice. I know it's not that easy, but ultimately what you are describing is very mature and sensible. You are starting to see how shallow all these designer fashions are and how they don't really have nay bearing on you as a person. you want to be seen for more than what you wear or how much money you have and you want to try and get to know others on that level as well.

I think you have to make a  statement. At the end of the day, if you continue to follow the crowd and go with the fads then the only friends you'll make are the people that do the same thing, If you make a statement about your individuality - no matter how hard that might be - then you will make friends who think similarly to you as well.

iT's all about attitude - you will attract people who have the same sort of attitude as you are putting ut, so the easiest way to change one is to change the other.

That's not to say it will be easy - going against the crowd is never easy - but it sounds like you think the crowd in this case is wrong and is pretty shallow. ALl I can say is that you have to do what's right for you and I think if you want a more meaningful life then there is no better time to start than now. Otherwise you could find yourself trapped in these superficial and shallow relationships with people for your whole life.
