sorry. i was behind in posting so here is a mini essay (unfinished and most likely will never be finnished crying ) about school lunches and what yours says about you... (note: the evil smiley at the end was actualy on purpose....)


School lunches

My mom used to pack my lunch but not anymore. I’m bigger, older, even more socially-awkward. And now that I think bout it, I was better off with the packed lunch. Now that I’m in high school, buying lunch signifies normality, as does complaing of how bad it is. It’s a rule of popularity, the footholds that bring you closer to popularity, not that a socially-awkward person as myself need to climb such a mountain. What? I don’t need to climb it…I just want to.

Bringing a packed lunch to high-school, BIG NO-NO! (note to self: calling things a BIG NO-NO…not helping me climb that mountain) A packed lunch means that your parents still take the time to pack your lunch, even more proved by the ever-present and forever reputation-staining for-head kissy-smudge. You may ask, “Doesn’t your girlfriend kiss you? It could be your girlfriend’s mark.” Seeing as how I have not a girlfriend (for I am one) I don’t kiss my boyfriend’s cheek and leave a mark (partially because one; I do not see him but so often and two; I don’t wear lip-stick…yuck!). The lip-sticko smudge-asaurus is a very common specimen upon the faces of the following social classes: nerds; geeks; and those people who can be missing for three weeks and you would never know. Trust me as someone who has climbed her way out of this group, YOU DON’T WANT TO BE THERE!

Now, school lunch isn’t as super as you would think. You (9 times out of ten) will go home hungry. Congrazzles for making it out of the bottomless pit of nerdy and not-so-great people class by the way. But your life gets harder! Now you gotta choose, take a risk with the lunch, or take a shot at being cool. To be cool or not to be cool. That is high-school’s hardest question. (SAT aint got nothing on that!)

Now lets say you choose to be apart of the “normal but not normal” range of folks (but why! You were sooooo cloooose!). you eat the school lunch. There’s two things that can come from this. A: you are socialy accepted as someone who is bearly normal. But not in the bottomless pit, good job!
Or B: you suffer and throw up on the cool chick walkin by. Your thrown into the bottom-less pit. You were the weakest link. Good-bye C:<
