And no just at school. What about work, your family, church, community or support group? I was cool during 8th grade for a few months until we moved. I was cool for the wrong reasons.
In elementary school definitely not because it was a Christian school and I thought the pastor's kid was a huge dork which meant I was automatically one of the uncool kids. In high school probably not because I was one of the scene kids so we pretty much hung out in our own little group. I probably wasn't at work either because for my last job I was a truck driver but when I got pregnant I was moved to an office position where I didn't fit in with office culture. I thought office culture was stupid so I wasn't a team player *rolls eyes* umm yeah, I thought calling employees teammates was one of the dumbest things ever so I was definitely an uncool person there.
Anyway, your question needs some music!

Love them and love that song. I am a huge Echosmith fan. I especially adore this new song they have with the group "For King And Country". I've fallen back on this song quite a lot lately. Its lyrics speak to me.

I absolutely was a sissy kid until 5th grade in elementary school. At that point, I created a science project I called 'The Wilson Buzz Box.' It was an old fuse box with a buzzer and a small battery inside. Outside, it had a push button. It was loud and all the classmates loved it. I was cool for a while.
Yes and No. Popularity comes and goes as do many things in life's ebb and flow. I've been drop dead gorgeous and I've been through those inevitable awkward phases. I've been the bombastic life of the party and I've been a complete and utter drag. I've had, it seemed, the world at my fingertips and other times those fingertips were on the self destruct button. I've been blessed I know, with friends and family almost every where I turn but I have still spent many dark days and long nights alone. I have believed at times with all of my heart in a loving all powerful God and I have also known the sound of faithlessness echoing through my empty heart. I've moved in circles where my ego felt sure I was the most intelligent person around I've also felt embarrassed and unworthy whenever I realized that I was the one who was operating on a deficit of knowledge Yes, I've been one of the cool ones. Chill as a York Peppermint Patty. Yet I have also been tepid. Neither hot nor cold. Nothing to add to the mix. Ignored. These were all just different colours of me. Some of them resplendent...some of them drab. There is a place for both in life and I am learning to wear each one more comfortably, because underneath it all whether famous or anonymous I am still always me and that is so far, my favorite thing to be.
