Hi, I am Jen, I do not feel quite myself today, I feel quite off today too because do you ever feel you have to look a certain way or to wear certain clothes or listen to certain music because you feel there is 'rules' to be 'Goth' Emo' 'Punk 'Skater Etc. Or Because you like them sort of people?

it's the nts making up rules to sort themselves into social groups. you don't have to join in, you can just be you and make your own trend

Don't worry - when you leave school you will find that there are just as many (albeit more subtle and conservative) adult cliques that people feel they have to fit into.

I hate Cliques.

People have tried and tried to "group" me, but they finally conclude and group me as either normal, just you, or weird.

I have to agree. I don't like cliques. They are quite unfair. I wonder why people just can't be themselves or the way that their parents raised them? I guess that's the power of peer pressure.

I can tell you one thing about cliques. They suck! They are an excuse for people too afraid of eachother's differences to try and feel powerful. Bunch of cowards if you ask me.

Hmm.. I seem to fall into the goth clique really. I don't hang around with gothic people too much, but I'm what they'd call goth though I just be myself. I feel that if I hang around with other goths things get competitive and a "gothier than thou" attitude develops.

I don't really try that hard to fit in anymore. I have one noninternet friend though and I keep some of my interests hidden like anime.

The gossip grapevine grows above my head and I never hear any rumors about me. Kind of lucky actually. NTs have me labeled as emo, bit strange really

I've been called emo because I was by myself a lot in school and I liked the emo music. I've also gotten the ret*d label and pyscho. I prefer emo to those.

I don't usually try to be emo... just the way I end up being.

If anything, I would probably be the Nerd, computer guy class one(I can fix that, but not that. Here, let me reference you to class 2.), and Gamer.

I really don't do clinches. To me its just a bunch of people who want to appear better than everyone else so sort them into groups with bad names whilst giving themselves the 'leader's seat'

Besides, everywhere I've seen it the 'populars' are generally hated by everyone else. I prove this by hitting a popular and then having people congratulate me for it.
