Like dumpster diving without the dumpster

As I was reading past journal entries, I stumbled along this little gem, which proves that my wit and sarcasm are not newly acquired, but actually are old friends of mine.



So, the freshman semi is going down next Friday at MHS. There's gonna be short dresses, grinding, and whoa man, various other things that I don't need to personally witness. The loud music, dancing, and large masses of people who seemingly are out to judge my peers and me won't really boost my already moderate self esteem, so therefore I, along with Allison Fink and the Brazilian in my wellness class, am boycotting my only semi, ever.

I'll give you a moment to recompose yourselves, in case I've caught you off guard. If you were eating and now are choking, I'm sorry.

Got a hold of yourself? Good. Let's continue.

So the main reason that I'm officially boycotting my only semi, ever, is because I'm aware of the actions of my peers, and am certain that it will be just like another school day, except the guys will be checking out the scantily-clad chicks without trying to be discreet about it. The popularity pyramid will be intact, and more inforced than ever, with the more popular girls (and guys) sitting in the 'fats, oils, and sweets' category. Of course, these bad for you, shouldn't-be-consumed products will be the objects of many peoples' lust, not unlike the normal pyramid you and I abide to. The lower class citizens, laying low in my favorite category, 'bread, cereal, rice, and pasta', will be more plentiful and will be avoided my the people on the Atkins Diet, or somehthing of the like. So basically, the majority will be ignored, the 'meat, poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts' will be trying to reach 'fats, oils and sweets' untouchability, while 'milk, yogurt, and cheese' will be digestible for only those of us who can handle it (myself not included). The 'vegetables' and 'fruits', a tier higher on the popularity pyramid than the avoided carbohydrates, will still be shunned because of their blandness, and will be in their own little clique, while bystanders like myself will watch this popularity pyramid shakedown.

So in a not-so-vain attempt to be different and not succumb to the popularity pyramid of hell, I've decided to go to the anti-semi bash, held in my honor. Here, there will be no pyramid, only we drama geeks, avoiding the laws of daily intake.
