cool in high school

i was
I know that I'm not supposed to have been to be a likable adult or comedian for that matter
but i was popular and cool when i was in high school

I wasn't the perky blonde cheerleader who dated the football player
and we weren't like mean girls
we weren't that stupid really

but we wore a lot of makeup and really cute tops
drank a lot of warm beers
had friends with cars
and gave great h-jobs

some of the pretty ones got fat, did drugs, and got sucked into jersey under oceans of makeup and hoboken beers
some got married and had babies
some are single and savvy with hot jobs in the city

and back then i managed to be weird, scary, and something of an outsider even though i was cool enough to go to the cool parties and talk on the phone with the cool people and date the cool boys

i guess i just really liked to party, drink beer, and kiss boys right away

People are so attached to who they were then
It's so easy to find a little bit of angst, passion, anger or warmth in a person towards these times

For the most part, we all take our turn
I was a horrible dork in middle school
A loner in college
But in high school

I drank soooo many beers
got into soooo much trouble
and had a pretty good time

And in case you didn't know, even the cool girls
all of them
including that one little bitch
feel insecure
awkward
and stupid oftentimes
just like you
why
because you're a freakin person and that's what people do

Saw Superbad last night
liked it
mclovined it
so good
