| What are we still at school here? Popular kids, cool cats, and weirdo’s (I come under this category). As we all struggle to be heard here, in this over populated, talented infested hovel called the marker café, I have began to notice an unpleasant pattern emerging. One I remember all too clearly from my school days. Cliques. Oh how I hate cliques. As a child I spent many a night crying because I wasn’t invited to the popular parties, the lunch time gatherings, the weekends hanging out at her house things. How excited I got when one of the popular kids spoke to me, thinking ‘mmm you see she is nice, I have a new friend’ and then ignored me for the next three years. How I admired the too cool for school snobs that never looked in my direction (and now only throw me the odd scrap). How I cursed my parents for being weird artist types and dressing me up like a mini Janis Joplin. Then I left it behind me, and became an adult, found my own style and beauty. But oh no, here I am again, trying to be seen, to be accepted, that people will think me pretty enough, funny enough, sharp enough to be my friend (and comment in my blog). Nothing it appears has changed, except for now I don’t cry over it.
I know, let’s start a, I am too weird to be popular clique? Hold a party, invite only the shy, awkward, sweet, and serious people and film ourselves……we can post it in the most unread blog. Magniv! (lol)
(Dedicated with all my love, to all my friends at the Marker who say they don’t like most people anyway) |

as long as you are not cool or popular in anyway.
Hey, I am one of the wierdos too, may I be in your cliques?
tricky little buggers indeed!
I like hearing this. I should come here more often. :-)
Glad we agree.
No way out of cliques dear. They're everywhere. They're in the air we breath, in every sound we hear, everywhere we look. Here's one right now - mm.. it's gone... But here's another one! You leave or one or are kicked out of one just to find yourself in another. Tricky little buggers.
you know I have simply become more comfortable....
the flower stage - wasn't sure if this place was for me
pink room - wanted to look like I am a thinking person....a normal person
blurry far away shot with camera - also a creative person
close up with glasses - happy go lucky disco queen (going back to my clubbing day)
and finally black and white me (now) - happy, vunerable and calm in my surrounding.
what will i put next?
well I think your just great, and even if you do ever make it into the clique....I will still think your great.....
in the end friends are what bring us love
gangs eventually lead to mass thought and conformism which is never good.....
I have to be honest, your totally right....I do think it's nice for people to find simmilar friends and hook up...and yes I want art people to read and be read...and i prefer that the boursa people find their own gang....
but my point was about this exclusive clique the one that puts itself socially above others.... the beautiful people (at least they think so)
I was talking about the second example you give....
what can i say basically you said it better then me.....
your the intelligent version of what I rather poorly tried to explain.....
just because people enjoy simmilar things.....there's no reason to be exclusive....
I have always been and will always be....a lover of people and open to them regardless of their size, shape or popularity......
it makes me sad to see groups that parade around thinking they are better just because they found 10 other people to agree with them.
I noticed the changes of your picture since you arrived to the cafe- at the beginning its was an extreme long shot of you in a flower field then you changed it to another long shot of you sitting on a chair in some kind of a pink room. then there was kind of a medium shot- bleary sepia. then a close up but with sun glasses and finally now, you have a clear black-white-pink medium of you.
you have evolved as well. good for you.
אני חייב להודות שבהתחלה ניסיתי להיות "מקובל" ואהוד, אבל הפסקתי עם זה. מי שרוצה, שיאהב אותי, מי שלא - לא צריך...
אני דווקא לא חושב שיש משהו רע בקליקות לכשעצמן. להיפך, טוב שאלו שמתעניינים באמנות ייכנסו לפוסטים אחד של השני, אלו שמתעניינים בהיכרויות ודייטים, אלו שמתעניינים בפוליטיקה ואלו של שוק ההון.
הבעייה נוצרת כשקליקה מסויימת נתפסת בעיני זולתה כמוצלחת יותר, שווה יותר, מגניבה יותר. וזו שאלה של דימוי עצמי.
מוטב שיהיו קליקות רבות, אבל שכל אחת תיהנה מזהותה ולא תשאף לאחרת. שהקליקות יתנהלו כמעגלים במישור אחד, ולא כהייררכיה.
על כל פנים - היה מעניין.
you see missing school effects you later in life. lol
now follow
at school I was a weirdo.
now I am more middle of the road, but still a bit left of popular....
but really I don't think of myself as popular or not.....
I am simply a person looking to find people to relate to and will relate to me.
I don't belong to any gang and I basically like anyone that's nice and interested in similar things to me.....
this post is about people who still subscribe to school cliches.....
I would make you a list of who, but they would get very upset....so I am staying in the general....
clear now? or do you need private lessons after school?
I'm a little confused, i thought you belong to the popular- cool cafe members. now you telling me that your a weirdo? maybe it's because i missed most of my highschool, most of the time i was out of class.
thank you yaki sweety. I never said I wasn't magniva....
I just don't want to be part of a group that excludes others. Hey your not even allowed to comment, your one of the popular kids aren't you?
nimrod said that too......I guess you guys are right.
shame that we don't become more sophisticated with age....just older..hehe
I get emotional about the silliest things and surround myself with grown up thinkers such as yourself....
what can I do nothing is just internet, just work, just aquaintences for me.....
too soft for my own good.
I might be like one of your rabbit creations.....
help me to be more rational.....
there is something in what you say....I was a loving and caring child who suffered at the hands of others....and now I am more or less the same kind of adult....even if I have learnt to suffer less....:)
well done on your first comment. your so cool
הכי טוב שכל אחד יעשה מה שהוא רוצה, וגם את יקירתי.
מה אכפת לך מקליקות? או ממקובלים או מלא מקובלים, או מיפים, נצפים, מוזרים וכו'?
חוצמזה, תארי לך שכולם היו מעניינים את כולם כל הזמן?
ולסיכום: תקחי מהקפה את מה שמתאים לך, זה בסך הכל אתר אינטרנט
תמיד נישאר ילדים , אנחנו רק "מתקנים" בעזרת הנסיון .
אני חושב שברירת המחדל שלנו היא ילדותית ולצורךאינטרסים מסוימים אנחנו הופכים ל"מבוגרים".
of course cliques are boring, they spend all their time congratulating each other on their popularity....
you have the right idea my dear.
נורא משעמם להיות בקליקה, לא?
(רק החשיבה על זה גורמת לי לפהק. )
הכי כיף זה לשייט בנחת בין אנשים, לדוג כמה אינדבידואליים מעניינים מפעם לפעם, להנות, לגוון ולהמשיך הלאה לחיים האמיתיים .
thank you for your support....there are so many of these cliques here you can hardly move, but shit it's not that important....
I shall look at your site and vote, but it might take me awhile as there is alot of hebrew to read.....so slowly does it.
Well spoken! - i guess history repeat itself
There are still people who think we are in kindergarden with all their repspones and smilies.
here is a green star from me - only because we ahve the same opinion on this matter.
try and read this as well.
and don't forget to vote.
I shall ask my popular friends to invite you next time.....lol
your so right people are people and people and I am always shocked by the lack of real care they have for each other, or let's say people who are not in their inner circle......
the more things change the more they stay the same
and I'm up for a party
