Sunday Questions
Where did you fit in? Did you fall into more than one group? Did you want to be in a different clique? Did you feel comfortable in your clique with people just like you, or did you want to break out and try to conform to another one? Did it really matter to you to fit in? What about now, have you changed from the clique you were in, or are you still the same way?
I really didn’t fit in anywhere most of my high school years. I had friends in just about every group, but wasn’t in any of them. There were a few I wanted to be in at the time, just so I could go HA! See, I am liked to someone else.. but deep down I didn’t want to be in any.. it wasn’t me so I was happy to just go along with whatever day to day crap there was.. I knew that in University, I had a chance to make myself new with new peers.. Not ones that I had stumbled along in school with since the 2nd grade. When I was a senior, I was probably the closest to being in a clique, that I ever was.. I had joined the art club.. and made quite a few friends there.. They were the weird “artsy” kids.. I still have some of them, we email now and then. MOst of them have gone on to different cities, met significant others, gotten married, have kids.. there are a few that are struggling to make it as a free lance artist.. there are a few that are doing quite well in the music industry. Overall I know we’ve grown up, we’ve had to.. I know I’m amazingly different than I was in high school..
