This makes me sincerely lose faith in the human race.

I am sickened.
--------------------

When I ask Jessica to explain the rules her clique lives by, she doesn't hesitate. ''O.K.,'' she says happily. ''No 1: clothes. You cannot wear jeans any day but Friday, and you cannot wear a ponytail or sneakers more than once a week. Monday is fancy day -- like black pants or maybe you bust out with a skirt. You want to remind people how cute you are in case they forgot over the weekend. O.K., 2: parties. Of course, we sit down together and discuss which ones we're going to go to, because there's no point in getting all dressed up for a party that's going to be lame. No getting smacked at a party, because how would it look for the rest of us if you're drunk and acting like a total fool? And if you do hook up with somebody at the party, please try to limit it to one. Otherwise you look like a slut and that reflects badly on all of us. Kids are not that smart; they're not going to make the distinctions between us. And the rules apply to all of us -- you can't be like, 'Oh, I'm having my period; I'm wearing jeans all week.'''

She pauses for a millisecond. ''Like, we had a lot of problems with this one girl. She came to school on a Monday in jeans. So I asked her, 'Why you wearing jeans today?' She said, 'Because I felt like it.' 'Because you felt like it? Did you forget it was a Monday?' 'No.' She says she just doesn't like the confinement. She doesn't want to do this anymore. She's the rebel of the group, and we had to suspend her a couple of times; she wasn't allowed to sit with us at lunch. On that first Monday, she didn't even try; she didn't even catch my eye -- she knew better. But eventually she came back to us, and she was, like, 'I know, I deserved it.'''

Meme

Ok, I can't remember the exact wording, but the point of this is to make twenty statements that are addressed to different people (some can be for more than one person), but you don't say who gets which... although it seems as though it's been a popular game to try and guess which statements are directed at you. If you guess correctly I'll tell you so. Sound good? ok.

Interesting meme.

1. Take your livejournal username and replace each letter with the corresponding number (a=1, b=2, etc.). If your name contains numbers, you'll need to convert them to letters first before you can convert to numbers.
ivybgreenflower = 9+22+25+2+7+18+5+5+14+6+12+15+23+5+18

2. Add all of the numbers together to create a
kind of super number.
eek... 186.


3. Make a note of the first digit of this number: 1
and then add the digits of the number together.
1+8+6= 15


4. Find the post of this number in your livejournal.
If you don't have that many posts, add the digits together again. Keep doing so until the number is smaller than your pathetic number of posts.

5. Take the digit you noted in step 3, and count that many words into the post.
"yesterday"

6. Use the resulting word in a google image search, and select a picture from the first page.
