That girl.

The one who sits in the back of class alone.

The one who stares into space for minutes at a time.

The one with a natural "bitch face" that pushes people away.

The one that teachers pick on because "she's too quiet"...

 

l am also...

The basic, "white-washed" black girl who loves Uggs and Starbucks.

The new girl from Texas/Mississippi/Virginia.

The smart chic who won't let you cheat off of her.

The bitch with super short hair.

 

l was...

The middle schooler picked on in the hall.

On the bus.

During P.E.

The "hipster" who got made fun of for liking Indie and Japanese music.

The troublesome child that argued with her mom for weeks at a time.

The misfit.

 

But...

So many teenagers have gone though all of that.

l'm not special.

l'm not any different than half of the teenagers in the world.

I'm ordinary.

l am boring.

I am but a grain of sand on the beach called Life.

 

Pretty basic, right?
