At my school cliques are everywhere. That is o.k that is not the problem the problem is that I'm alone in alittle clique of my own everyone calls me a freak how do I get out of it and became noticed.
OR you can slowly start changing yourself to what they see as acceptable, like changing hair styles and clothes and wearing make up etc... Then start talking to them and see how it goes. The sad truth about school is you get judged mostly by how you look...

Although I don't see much of a difference in this highschool and job world. It's the same Bull crap.
Buuuuuut it's up to you to get noticed, you either conform to societies bull crap, OR you learn to be just who you are.

One day, everyone who treated me like I was some kind of asshole loser all of the sudden wanted to be pals and hang out.
Yah. After all of those years of them calling me a freak, they all of the sudden thought I was cool. I just thought to myself "They never gave me the time of day when I wanted to be friends, so why should I give THEM the time of day now that they decided they want to be MY friend?"
If I could go back and change that decision, I wouldn't. I respect myself enough to not want to be noticed by people who think I'm a freak. It's their loss, not mine.
I'm not saying you don't respect yourself- don't think that I am. What I am saying is that it's not worth ditching your friends to roll with the jerks who've been calling you names. If they don't want to be your friend, then why go out of your way to try to make them want to be? You deserve better than that in this life.
Trust me, this whole clique thing ends when you walk out those doors for good. Your social status and popularity status in high school don't matter once you enter the world. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]
