Franny's Rants- Stuff

Okay..So this post is going to be pretty much a rant. I like going on rants, I am very good at them..haha. So here I go.

    I was on google+ the other day, and people kept posting about what they got for christmas. I couldn't help but think-- and I'm not usually the type of person that thinks like this--all these people are so obsessed with STUFF.  Everyone in the whole school is, everyone wants the next best thing to what they have. Got an iphone 4s? Well.. You're not cool anymore, because the iphone 5 is out. Got brand new shoes last week? Well, sorry to inform you, but those aren't exactly in fashion anymore. And it's almost like when people post these things, they are saying- " Ooh look guys! I've got this new ( enter popular item here) and so now I am cool!" I mean, I do it too, I tell people what I got and stuff..but I just don't much like the concept that in order to be popular, you have to have all sorts of STUFF.
     And the worst part of it is, some people actually get all of this new stuff. They get the new phone and the new gadgets and they are automatically cool, now people want to hang out with them. Why are people like this? Honestly? Can't we be friends with people for who they are, and not what they have?
    I don't have that much stuff, just this two year old netbook, an ipod nano, and my scratched up phone. But I can still find myself feeling lucky for the friends I have. And I don't have them because of their stuff.

About This Blog

Hello everyone. My name is Franny, and this blog is going to be about, thats right, you guessed it, my horrible/amazing experiences at a place called BJHS. Everyone knows what middle school is like..People write books about how awful it is all the time. But, I am going to give you a 13 year old girl's perspective on the 7th grade. And maybe even 8th grade if I survive that long. Haha.
  Just a side note that I am not using anyone's real name in here, except for my own..But if you go to my school I'm sure that you will be able to figure out who is who. Not that hard in a place where rumors spread like wildfire. Or when you leave the butter out on the counter and when you are putting it on your bread, it spreads really easily. Thats what rumors are like in junior high. Thats another thing, a lot of this might be just that, rumors. So, if you are one of the charactors in this story, I apologize if I have said anything false about you.
      Of course, what I would absolutely love to do, is write a whole blog about how much I hate and/or love certain people, but sadly, I pledge not to do that. At least the hate part. As I said earlier, if you go to my school, you might be able to easily decipher the names of the students, which would put me into humungolious ( and yes, I realize that I just said humungolious and not humoungous) trouble. I don't want to loose any friends.
   Anywhoo, that is a little bit about this blog I am planning to keep. I do hope to write an entry every few days, filling people in on the latest gossip of the school. Feel free to leave any comments, and share this with people if you want. Thanks :)
