Great job and you are completely right. It seems we get labeled as soon as we step into the school. You don't really have to do anything, but wear clothes or talk to people. Suddenly the first person you talk to you're in their group and they get mad if you try to switch groups or make friends with people in other groups. Nice work.

I hate stereotypes. They annoy me. I dress similarly all the time, but I had a friend who once wore pink (her mom made her), then changed to navy. Everyone was making fun of her. It's such a pain. I love the last part about choosing - its completely true. Nicely done.

another great poem. I really like the last stanza. "it’s one or the other: angst or pep/you must quickly choose/else it’ll be decided for you, and you will certainly lose" Great stuff.

Wonderful piece, I especially like this line: they’re judged by the size of their butt. It's true! One time I wore all black and people thought I turned Goth. But the next day I wore mostly pink and people either called me a prep or a poser (because the day before I was "Goth" even though I NEVER SAID I WAS!)
