Okay, I asked a question about this before. Well, only that I was considered in being assigned into this class that I had no idea what it was, well now I know it's a class for prepps!
Okay Im not a prep. What-So-Ever! I'm not like dirt poor nasty needer of friends but I have no friends in this class. And every teacher I asked was like Ohh wow congratulations! Im like for what? I told my favorite teacher about my problem.. because I can't just drop out of this class because my Mother was imformed and she told everyone and she wont be mad she'll be dissipointed. I know I can do everything in the class which is a bunch of building stuff. Im almost possitive but today was my first class where the teacher informed everyone about what we would be doing and I kinda was a little late so I walked in maybe 6mins late asked if this was the room for G&A and kids looked at me as if I had 6 heads!! I have no friends in this class but everyone I've told was like Ohh my god stay in it dont you dare drop out this is an amazing oppurtunity. Like today Bailey was like "Are you sure youe saposed to be in this?" so being completely insulted i was like "My teacher told me that I was on the list-- So I just hope my teachers not wrong!" Trying to be nice but ohh I just wanted to smack him. Im not the kind've person to get in this. Its a bunch of smart people.. So I asked my teacher why I was even chosen she said because i think outside the box. ILL STOP I will I hate it. But Its only my first class so i should stay in and prove these little kiddies wrong! I know, but i stayed back last year and this is the second year of me being in there grade Im not the most popularist kid, or the best looking. Or anything really and I know this shouldnt madder but it does! All the girls are pretty and I feel so huge and ugly I seriously wanted to cry.. the only kid in my class thats in it with me is Adam. He was the only guy who talked to me and everyone was like Adam you talk to Katie?? And he completely was like Yeahh shes awesome. =]] Kinda made me happy but I embarressed him and I know I did:[ I can't drop out, but I like can't stand to be in the class... and the only kid who actually talks to me might like now be made fun of! I like Adam[[FRIEND]] I dont want that..=[[
I dont have the confidence to stay in this. Ive been getting the grades ever since I stayed back i didnt think anyone noticed. Well now people are stopping me in the halls! Infront of kids, be like "ohh Katie I Hear your doing so much better-- Im sooo proud of you.'" and yea im flattered but jeeeezz. I never liked being the invisible girl, but i had that class in the morning now no one will drop it its like story of the year. The smartest girl in my class Madison didnt get in and she thought she would but only a certain number of kids could and I was chosen instead of her-- now shes like out to get me NO JOKE!
I know im making this sound like end of the world but I know its not.. but why is it such a big deal?? Get over it and drop it.. No one talked to Adam! Erghh I know it isnt as horrible as Im making it out to be, people are noticing im not like my brothers but for liek 2 years nothing now im drowning in there congratulations!!!

This is an issue of self esteem. You don't feel good enough and feel like you don't belong. Well, if I was in your school, I would be one of the pretty girls sitting there in the G&A class. And if you came in all slumped over and had a grimace on your face and had bad attitude and aura hanging about you, I wouldn't talk to you either. When I was about eleven, I was antisocial and obsessive. I was the weird little kid who was the outcast with one real friend in the entire class. And about halfway through seventh grade, I looked at one of the "popular" girls I saw in the hall. She was smiling and laughing and had friends around laughing and smiling too.
That was when I basically had an epiphany. That very weekend, I went to the mall with my mom and picked out "happy" clothes. I got clothes that said "I look nice and am nice". I put on a smile and brushed my hair. I went to school the following Monday and during free period, I took a breath and walked up to the girl I saw in the hall and said hi. She smiled and ever since, we have been best friends and I am friends with the people that I used to see in the hall, who I wondered how they were so popular. And you know what? No one has ever, ever, ever said to me, "I know you. You're that ugly, fat antisocial kid who was in my sixth grade class". I was a new kid in the school.
That is exactly what you need to do. Do you honestly think that those girls in class look at you and think "Oh, that girl is fat and stupid!"? No. No, they don't. They don't care. They're not out to make fun of you; they hardly notice you. You're there, but just barely to them. The class is not the problem. The problem is you.
I know because I look back and see me sitting alone while everyone works together and laughs. I realize that the reason I had no friends was that no one knew that I wanted to be friends. A smile goes a long way. This recently happened to me, actually. A girl I never even knew existed. She had been in my school for a while, but I never really noticed her or knew her name. One day I was sitting in lunch doing some homework, and a girl sits down next to me. She sits down and says hi. You remind me of her, and what you could be. Who says that you can't be friends with the pretty, smart girls? No one besides yourself. You are good enough, you just need to act the part.
