Narrative
Every morning for the passed 4 years I would wake up and walk 6 paces to my left to the bathroom. Brush my teeth, comb my hair and mentaly prepaired myself for the next 14 hours and 54 minutes of solitude. Throughout my entire grade school experience I was a loner. Not by choice of course, no one chooses to be alone. But my father told me it was because I had never fit in. that I had to “be more active with my classmates.” I begg to differ. I was alone because I obtained a higher state of mind then my peers. I was a little more matured mentally. But also more creative You see having conversations with adults was no problem. But with people my own age it was a bit of a challenge. Not for me though. But for them.
At the beginning of my senior year i had took my dads advice and became more interactive mwith my classmates. i would randomley say "hi" to people in the hallway which was wierd because saying hi is lame.fter about a month went by of me hanging out with me peers after school and associateing with people i began to develope what are known as "friends". People would come up and talk to me about relationships, break ups, problems with familys and other things I really didn’t care about. Because once I got to finally socialize with people . When they spoke, it really met nothing to me. It was what I had to say that met a lot to them.
Aside from the feelings, people also began to invite me to partys and there houses and social events. I was opend up to a whole new world. I saw what it was to be apart of the crowd. I was offered drugs, alcahole and the thing that cought me off guard the most is when a girl asked me if I wanted to do some fruit. Like what is that? I had no idea what it was I just knew it was slang for something. But I never accepted any of it. Which made a lot of people respect me for it, but also it made a lot of people feel bad about themselves when they foundout that I didn’t do the things that they did. So now i had a new profound image and it was a good one. It was the image of a guy that is cool to hangout with but also have a great deal of respect for him.
The in crowd was ok. And fun. Going to all of the partys, espicially the college partys on campus every now and then was really exciting. But me getting in there was what I needed to do inorder to see why I was never in there in the first place. None of us where campitible. I doid meet some people like along the way who where just there but just because they wanted to experience partying and socializing with popular people. But thery where not like the majority of the group. After awhile it got old. Maybe it was because i saw alot of the same types of people, or just did not go to big enough partys
So I came to my sences a month ago, being in the in-crowd is great, but only for so long,. For some the hype last for a while. And others, it’s here today and gone tomarrow.
