One Of The Boys

What can I say? I'm quite the flexible. I can be the most superstylish, fashion-addicted girl in school... or the quirky one who hangs out with the guys, laughing at dirty jokes. I'm pretty easy to blend in. It's the quote "Experience is the best teacher". There were times where I had to jump from one clique to another because they all rejected me. Now I'm having times where I had to jump from one clique to another... to juggle my social life. I looooooove being a social butterfly :) haha

I don't really go to my guy friend's place during weekends, play video games, or any of that stuff. But I do enjoy hanging out with them at school. Not as one of the guy's girlfriend; as one of them. You might think this is probably impossible, but... not really. Mostly the guys just gathered around within 6 feet, they chat about something, then I come in and it gets more interesting. I laugh at their jokes, they laugh at mine. Everyone's happy.

I do have a best guy friend I still keep in touch. He's my first best friend EVER! We've been friends since 7th grade. Well, I haven't talked to him in person since... about a year? But, what can't technology do? We text. A lot. Well, not as often as before, since his friend told me something about my best friend during school break. It's getting a little awkward, now that I know. Though I don't know if he knows that I know... haha. Confusing, I know!

Sorry, I got out of track. Point is... befriending guys is just as good as befriending the girls. Sure, you can't go "OMG! I just saw the awesomest dress at the store!" or "Omigosh, that guy is sooooo hot!" around your guy friends. But you can still save it for a blab with your gal pals. Let me tell you why.

First; because you're probably the only girl in the group, and the guys are 'proven', you're safe. There's a bunch of guys protecting you. Kind of like Secret Service, but only they treat you as a friend -Not the President's daughter-, they throw jokes about you, they don't wear black suits and earpieces. Haha
Second; you can see the story from a different side. Not just from a girl's side, which is mostly influenced by emotions. Sometimes, guys are more rational than us.
Third; it'd be easier for you to try to get close to a guy (Though he's not your peep). 'Cuz your boys usually help you get to this guy. Especially, if one of your boys is a good friend of this guy. It'd be a grrrreat impression for him.
And a bunch of other benefits haha

Give it a try. But, don't take it too far. Some guys are a liiiiiiiittle dangerous. Try befriending guys who are not geeks (So not fun) but not 'too-cool-for-school' ones. The guys who have a good social life but not... damaged. Nice guys. Yeah, that's the word. Some guys you should stay away from, some other can have solid friendship with you. My best guy friend has tons of friends, but he's not cracked. Guys can be such good friends.

Song of the entry is "True Friend" by Miley Cyrus. Hmmm... maybe I should write a song about this! haha
