Well, the other day me and 3 of my girl mates were out in town and had been to the cinema with 4 of the really cool guys at school. I was quite surprised that they liked hanging out with us cos we're not popular. We're not unpopular, we're just sort of ..... normal.
Anyway, it was after the film and we were all just hanging out in town and it was all going well, until tons of the popular girls from school turned up.
3 of the guys ditched us (the other one wanted to stay hanging out with us) and went off with the cool girls.
Its just, how can i be like them?
Like, they're just so ...... effortlessly cool, if you know what I mean?
All the popular girls dont have to do anything, they just seem so casual, and they dont go after the guys or anything.
How can I be like that?
Please dont say be myself cos if i was totally myself then I would act really weird. If you're popular and you do anything strange then everyone laughs with you.
If you're unpopular and you do anything just slightly strange then everyone looks at you like you're a total weirdo.
I know you're probably thinking that I shouldnt bother with these guys, or being like the cool people cos they dont seem very nice, but i'd just really like to be so effortlessly cool.
So, how can i be like that, effortlessly cool?

Personally, I'm not popular, but I'm around popularity. Some of my old best-friends were extremely popular. It's nothing you really want to be a part of. It's all deception and backstabbing. None of them are actually effortlessy cool. They put on a happy face, and do what everyone wants them to do to fit in. I've seen so many girls breakdown because they can't fake themselves anymore.
I know you don't want me to say be yourself, but that's what you do have to do. Just be your normal self. People can see when you're trying to be someone you're not, and most people don't like that.
I'm not sure how old you are, but in highschool you find that a lot of the popular kids drink, smoke, and/or do drugs. Peer pressure is the strongest in those groups. If they discard you for being you... is that something you really want to be a part of?
