Why can't we be friends?


High school is all about peers. Forget about academics, what everybody really cares about deep down is what is going on with other people. Ever notice how most people don't really care about if your doing fine, only if something has gone wrong? People don't want to here if your just being your normal fine self, but if something juicy happens, or something goes wrong, everybody wants to know about it. They swarm around like bees to honey, begging to get a taste. It seems that what other people think, tend to run our lives; it affects how we act, what we say, the way we dress, etc. Why do we care so much? About these for short years here at Winder-Barrow High and the people in the building Monday through Friday. Once we graduate, we will never see these people again unless you plan on staying in Winder the rest of your life and so do they. Which is stupid. So why do we care? Why should we waste our time worrying? It's not like what they think affects who we become, because they can't do anything to us. If we stopped worrying so much about what other people think, then we could truly be ourselves, and I think our grades would go up. We spend so much time worrying about climbing the social ladder, that our grades seem to suffer from it. In theory, if people truly care about other people's feelings, rather than their selfish, immature, and judging thoughts I think that we would all be more successful at school, and in life.
