Cliques... wow. Cliques definitely play a humongous role in high school.... and middlee... and thankfully not elementary, at least for me. [the word] clique was just an innocent word with high hopes to have a beautiful definition and be said proud and loud. But this poor 6 letter word was given to be the word with the meaning of -being judged or ridiculed or harrased i guess by what you look like,how you dress, and who you hang out with.
Cliques affect people everyday, every school or job, everywhere. Whether at work or at school people are judged by the ways i had said earlier. I mean common now, it doesn't matter if you have even said 2 words to a person, because you know them RIGHT? because they hang with the"jocks" or the "Goths" and that makes them THIS WAY ! Because they dress a certain way or hang out with a certain crowd they are like e v e r y o t h e r "geek" or "skater" that you have never said two words and yet someone how just know.
Cliques effect education because there are sooo many people who have friends who don't acheive in school. Who don't try and fail every class.and must think to themselves" you know what I had better not get that easy A in math class because i am actually intellegent, i meen i might not be accepted by my own [so called] "friends". i might make someone confused on which group i belong to , yeahh i deffinitely don't want to do that" ..hmm " if i got that A it might actually make a small chip away at my own stereotype, small but powerful, w a a a i i i t
I forgot that would be achieving something though so.... i had better just stop this nonsense."

OK so I am most likely considered to be part of a clique. and if you disagree then i think your awesome. I don't really know what to say , i wish i wasn't considered to be part of a clique and who knows maybe I'm not. But i know that sometimes when i share something about one of my friends[ like a funny story] to another friend who doesn't particularly hang out with those people and i say my friends name i usually get a .. ohh i don't like her, shes a snob, a look
or you know something along those lines.
and i just think to myself wow how you ever talked to this person because they are really nice or wouldn't be hanging out with them. i try my best not to judge people in anyways but what can i say it happens but when it does happen i actually go up and talk to the person .. people always say as do i that you shouldn't judge someone when you have never said a word to them.
so i really do go up and talk to the person who i have judged because i guess in my mind i want the judgment to begone, disappear because 50/50 chance its wrong. and usually they turn out to be really nice people. i remember in 7th grade art i sat next to a person who shall not be named[ lord voldemort] haha just kidding but i thought of that after saying the shall not be named thing] and they would be considered emo or goth and i was pretty scarred and bummed that i had to sit next to them but i decided i was going to talk to them and see how they were . and i did and it turned that that person was soo respectful and kind.He or she just had a bad rap/stereotype.

wow i have to hurry up ivebeen typing for like an hourr.

alright symbol would be nerd=smart jock=muscles Goths= wear black and another iss umm popular= snobby

i really don't think that any good could ever come out of stereotyping.

Courage.
people need courage everyday to get through the put downs and to be individuals. i thikn i am constantly judged incorrectly because of the people i hang out with. and because of religion i am a proud catholic teenager. people have asked me " ohh are youu realllllly religous" iand i just think to myslef youre either religious or not, practicing or nonpracticing. yes i do go to church and religion every sunday and you no what its not something i dread to go to either. and also i went away for 4 days to ohio on a pilgrimage to find god and discover the way and i will never forget it becasue it was amazing and unforgettable.

I do look up to some individuals because they have not followed the road most taken. One idividual is my brother aka my hero. He is an awesome person who is interested in so many things and is always nice to everybody. except for the occasional fight for the bethroom then things can get ugly.But he is so smart and plays sports, loves classical and jazz music and is a killer sax player and has a deep faith. He is my role model along with my parents but i can't get into detail becasue its 10:01 pm and im drifting to sleep.

see youu tomorrow mrs gabouryy - melissa roff and wow this is extremely long
