What is popularity? Why does it exist? And where does that put you and me on the "social ladder"? When someone says that another someone is popular, what does that mean? Ways many people identify "popularity" is by how many freinds they have, their list of extra-curricular activities, what they wear, what car they drive, how they do their hair, and who they hang out with. Seriously. Why does that determine your popularity? Why doesn't the number of essays youv'e written or your current GPA in school determine your popularity? Does anyone even know what the word popularity means? I didn't think so.
To me, popularity is like a T.V. dinner. There's a compartment for the corn and the potatoes, and the steak that tastes like rubber, and the cheesecake. Just like this disgusting dinner we're eating there's a compartment for the jocks, and the drama club, and the student council, and the chess club. In all reality, these compartment don't exist. They're invisble. Why? Becasue populartiy is a myth. There's no such thing. I say, get rid of the T.V. dinner and go out to Olive Garden. Order a large plate of food that mixes your chicken with your noodles and broccoli.
