“Get out of my way ! weirdo !” I hear this almost every day when I get around my school. School? Forget it ! It’s more like empire with different levels of popularity. If you can’t figure out who’s who, you’ll never survive school. Keep your eyes open because this is your survival guide. Let’s start with the basics.

The Popularities
The movie “Mean Girls” feature a group of popular girls called plastics.
The cliques or the league or whatever you call it are the highest of the high. They rule the school and maintain all the popularity. The popular kids look pretty or handsome. That’s how they gain attention. The pops are very confident. Prom Queen or King, Talent show winners, they just have to get it all. But according to the lead author Robert Faris, assistant professor of sociology at the University of California, Davis, popular kids are most likely to bully more. He states, “We can conclude that rates of aggression generally increase as kids gain status.” This basically means that the meaner you are the more popular you get.
They are only popular because they basically worship the pops and hang around with them. Without the popular people, they are nothing. They try to imitate whatever the popular people do and wear. But they are the people the popular people need to become popular. The followers would like to be popular but sadly they are just followers. Robert Faris says the leader of the group gives them a sense of protection.
