Life Is Full of Fake People and Everyone Is Not Being Real
"Life is full of Fake People, and everyone is not being real"

My classmates and I were assigned by our professor to write an essay about a certain topic entitled "Life is full of Fake People, and everyone is not being real." A lot of ideas were playing inside my head but I don’t know how to commence. I remember instantly my experience about fake friends; I can pretty much say that I grew up with a bunch of fake people. I have so many in my community and it isn't even funny. Not to mention the friends that I’ve had growing up over the years. I want to tell a tale of a so called "best friend" I had growing up.

At the end of fifth grade I had made a few friends, but this one guy that was with us kept staring at me. He didn't speak often, but I would catch a glimpse of him eying me a lot and it creep me out at first. This went on for about a week until I broke the ice. Pretty much afterwards we became fast friends and I found myself hanging out with him more than all the other people. We grew very close as the days and months went by, but it didn't take very long for me to realize something about him. When other people were around us he would give me this look... I don't know how to explain it, but every time someone else we knew came around, he would distance himself from me. He would speak less and not stand close to me, it was odd but I let it slide. As even more time went by we found ourselves in a what you would like to call "clique". There were four of us then six, Our group was growing, but little did I know things were only about to get worse. Like any boy group things start to happen, if two of the boys were fighting then they group would separate and it becomes a he say she say. Well all the he say she say came all back on me. For some reason all the boys would be angry with me when I came around, would give me the cold shoulder or just laugh and snicker when I came around. I never knew why until I started to study my "friend" he would always have a

In the articles “Brad Blanton: Honestly, Tell the Truth” by Barbara Ballinger and “Rejecting All Lies Immanuel Kant” by Sissela Bok, they argue that lying is never allowed because it leads to many complicated situations.

    even witty. Smelled like cigarettes, probably since he also took up smoking since 14 years old, the stress of living in Yokeman can do that to you. At first he hung with out with us, and over time... he started keeping his distance. Then, half a year before graduation he just disappeared. Ryan dropped out of school, not even keeping contact with anyone. It was rumored that his family moved out of state, but at that point I thought he was the luckiest man alive to get out of this place. I used to catch him trying to make eye contact with me, but would turn his head away the moment my eyes look back at him, or he notices the moment I turn my head around he faces the ground or elsewhere assuming I didn’t notice him checking me out. Perhaps…

    At that moment I felt so embarrassed, the most I felt in my entire life. I quickly pulled my pants back up all red from embarrassment. Old pimply Ackley stood by me giggling and old Ernest laughing until he fell down onto the floor and his stomach filled with pain. Luckily for me there wasn’t a lot of people at the park that day. There were only two girls who were laying on the grass and they didn’t seem to notice me. Everyone else that day were all at some football game and only old Ackley, Ernest, me, and some other people who never go to football games or spend our time studying were left behind. Old Ernest was never at any football games since no one like him there so they would sit far away from him as possible. I once asked him why and he said that football was a boring sport and all the players were losers. Still beside me was old Ernest laughing like it was the funniest thing he ever seen in his entire life. I was so sick of him laughing at me that I wanted to punch him right in the face, but I decided not to since he’s like twice my size and it wouldn’t end very well for me. From then on every time old Ernest would see me, he would remind me of the day he pulled my pants down and I would always…

    I had not seen my friends since the last school year, but none of my so called “friends” would even acknowledge me. Here I was again, scared out of my wits, at a new school, and looking for friends. I met new people and they took me in like a lost puppy looking for a home, one of them ended up living very near to me. Her name was Simi, she was very nice to me; I thought that Simi would actually be the friend for me. It turns out, I was wrong, Simi used me to get what she wanted and I was gullible enough to cave in to her demands. Later on in the year, I finally (after years of searching) found the perfect group of friends. They were amazing and they felt just like my friends back in Ardmore. From that group of friends, I found my best friend Elizabeth Helms, who is still my best friend…

    I think the purpose for this essay is to show us the many ways a person can lie and to make us realize that we live in a world that lives on lies. There are more kinds of lies then the simple lies like a teenager telling her parents she going to the library when she is actually going to a party. For example there are also lies that trick people into buying a product without the seller telling the customer the negative results about the product.…

    All throughout school I strived to be a great student, always trying my best and never giving up. I didn’t really have any life changing moments that shaped me into who I am today that is, until freshman year. That year everything changed for me I was faced with challenges I never had to face before. My brother and I are three in a half years apart and he went to Horizon High School for his freshman and sophomore year. He was a troublemaker to say the least didn’t have the best reputation so all the teachers there thought that I was just like him. When I started there no one really knew my name and then once they saw my last name they started to be rude to me and say rude things to me. Even when I did good on work I still got a bad grade just because the…

    My first day on the bus, I met a very important person to me. She would soon become the closest friend I would ever have. We shared a name, the interest in video games, and the hobby of drawing. But, other than that, we were very different. She liked white milk and hated chocolate (a.k.a “tainted milk”). I was the opposite. I enjoyed the company of dogs, she was obsessed with cats. But, differences aside, we enjoyed sitting together during lunch and just doodling all over each other's agendas and notebooks. We never really had any classes together, aside from homeroom together.…

    I was promising child when I was young. My parents were busy to show me off to others. I was so called talented child that never miss an A in a single class. My parents did not ever doubt about me becoming eminent man. I was always forced to study all day. I wanted to play soccer or basketball with my friends but I had to take some classes in educational institutes after the school. My life was totally micromanaged by my parents. When I was 14 years old, I went to middle school and started to consider about what is my life. At that moment, I met a friend, Xiao Xu, who sat next to me in the class.

    I was the new girl and I had no friends. Everything started off alright, but then everyone started to pick on me and call me names. It started off with childish things and words. I would sit alone at lunch, a lot of the time crying, wondering what was so wrong with me that made everyone hate me. I felt like I was the one doing something wrong. Then the bullying started getting more physical. I would start getting nasty notes in my locker and I would just be walking down the hall and someone would stick their foot out and trip me. It got to the point where my mom had to pull me out of school because the school administration wouldn’t do anything and they would tell me it was my fault. At that point I just started to believe them. After being pulled out of school for a month my mom decided it was time for me to go back. Of course I was terrified, but I thought maybe it would be different. I thought wrong. The kids that were messing with me would start to follow me home when I was walking alone with their hoods up. I would just start to run home. Soon enough 8th grade was over and summer was…

    I decided I needed to make a change. My classes were filled with students who I never talked to, because we were stuck in certain groups in middle school. I branched out and began talking to new people and met a girl who seemed to have similar interests as me. Every class we would talk and we decided to walk to our lockers together in the morning. This would be a change, because I always walked with my other friend to our lockers. The next morning, I met up with my new friend, Jen. Jen and I walked to our lockers together and I heard hushed talking behind us. The voice came from my old friend who was telling someone about me. She now turned the tables and gossiped about me and how I was mean for ignoring her. This shocked me and I knew then and there that I had to drop her as a…
