I like the way one of the groups in class described how I was in high school: Socially Elite! The words are a magnificent description of a person who is extremely high on the social bar, and I can honestly and proudly say that I was one of those individuals. Social Elites are defined (by the members of this group in my class) as a person who can fluctuate successfully between the many groups that are formed in high school. For example, A Thespian who gets invited to party with the Mean Girls, listens to music and poetry with the Artists, is a memeber of the Honors Club, and attends the games and after game celebrations with the jocks, cheerleaders, and dance team. Well, I wouldn’t say that this is me exactly because at an all girls private Catholic High School, surprisingly we didn’t have many “groups” but we definitely had “clicks”. Clicks included people from all groups, but they only associated with the individuals in their click for the most part. Of course there were cool clicks and sort of un cool clicks, but clicks included members from several groups. As a minority in a predominantly whie school, I was able to hang out with many different clicks and form different bonds with many different people. I could sit at a different lunch table everyday, and it wouldn’t make a single difference. I appreciate this experience because it shaped my outgoing personality as it is today. (I was however, and honorary member of “The In Crowd”)!!!!! Ha Ha!

lol…I agree with you on the term Socially Elite, but when I think of elite I think of being above others so idk about that exact word choice.but I was one of those people that was kinda cool with every group and we had our OWN group which would be considered the “In Crowd”…oh how I miss highschool! lol
