Our school had a lot of seperate social groups, but there is also a group of people that belong to all groups, if you know what I mean. I was one of those people, we can talk to pretty much anyone we want, we get along with all the groups (except for the really weird people...). The problem is, when two groups really hate eachother and you are friends with both of them...
I don't mean to stereotype, but there were some distinct groups at my school:
-Preps: Always got good grades, tried really hard in school and participated in a lot of after school activities
-Jocks: Athletic, favorite class was gym, okay grades, but just so they could stay in sports. They usually drank a lot too...
-Gamers, nerds: Played a lot of games like Magic the Gathering, Dungeons and Dragons, and computer and video games. Some were obsessed with there TI calculators...
-Pot-heads: Obviously did drugs, not the brightest group...but played hacky sack sometimes
And then there was me. I got very good grades, but didn't try very hard. I played computer games, but did not like D&D, and didn't want to be associated with the group of people that did. And I would never do drugs, it is against my ethical and religious standards, but I loved hacky sack, and was one of the best players. It helps when your reflexes aren't slowed down by drugs...
