School.. Isn't it Beautiful?

Trust me, you don't want to know.

What I think about this place,

but i'll tell you anyways.

 

I smile everyday,

everybody thinks I am fine..

 

I laugh,

everbody thinks I am happy..

 

I participate,

everybody thinks I'm normal

 

I go to an expensive school,

everybody thinks my family is wealthy.

 

I answer questions a lot in class,

everybody thinks I'm a gifted genius.

 

You know what?

It's all wrong,

It all is.

 

My smiles, 

Sure, some are real.

But, I have a fair number that are fake.

Just trying to please people, and avoid questions.

 

My laughter,

It's so I appear normal, 

and not like some depressed kid in a super happy school.

 

My participation,

is to avoid questions,

 

My schooling,

I'm only here through funding.

I could NEVER afford a place like this, I mean.. I can barely pay my school bill, and other expanses.

 

Answering questions,,

is so i don't get called on.

I work hard EVERY night.

I'm up until 12 or later doing homework, studying,.

Doing everything to remain on honour roll, or achive high honours.

 

See, that's the thing.

I can't stand the people in my school.

 

All the brand names,

here I am, 

wal mart clothes, the comfiest things ever, and affordable.

 

All the talk about parents, 

their exclusive jobs,

their wealth.

Ha, yeah, my family is on a fixed income from the government,

we get by.

 

The gossiping,

I can't stand it,

who honestly gives a flying ----?

 

The drama,

oh god, the drama.

It's like kindergarten again.

 

Girls getting their 'bff's' t do the break ups for them.

C'mon! What is this elementary school?

 

The 'coolest' music discussion.

Please, that's not music, it's noise.

I have my own very different tastes from you people.

 

Complaining about your pathetic hair being ruined.

Ugh, do you not know, that hair grows back?

Oh, and it helps if you don't kill it each day with the flat iron.

 

The guys, 

oh dear me,

the guys are just as bad as the girls.

Gossiping, drama, bad hair days, ugh.

 

Everywhere I look,

romance. 

A couple making out in the hall ways,

in front of me, blocking my way to the door.

It gets old.. quick..

 

I guess we could say,

I only like my school for the education,

and the location on the lake.

OH! and the very few decent people that attend.

 

Or maybe.. I'm just picky?

Or can't stand the high end world,

because they don't understand real world problems.
