like donāt get me wrong i was both best dressed AND too cool for school. and too cool for school is THEE inheritance of hot weird goth girlsā¦but likeā¦people were coming up to me in the hallway outraged that best dressed was sniped from me FOR WEEKS, you donāt understand, i was my high schoolās personal lady gaga, the dean of students was my #1 opp and had a personal vendetta against me. i was nearly suspended purely for dress code violations. i was once sent home for wardrobe and came back in a sequined bodysuit and a giant floor length cloak in protest and i kept the hood up for the rest of the day. i wore a lehenga choli and knockoff giuseppe zanotti heelless heels to prom. even after high school i am to my knowledge the only person who has been asked to leave an NYU dining hall due to dress code violations. i was a known fashion icon. it was absolute robbery
allie if you see this sorry for calling you a mid bitch but letās be real it was too obvious, you were yearbook editor and absolutely no one was checking for your fits, they were cute but very j crew catalog. you shouldāve just given yourself best smile and no one would have noticed. you flew too close to the sun with your ambition for sartorial recognition and i can forgive but it will never be forgotten

And the vice principal paraded me through the campus while loudly berating me and then measured the hemline of my dress as compared to my knee by placing a dollar bill against my thigh. I called my mom crying and she got an article published in the local paper about it with a picture of the outfit I was wearing and āslut shamingā in the title, exposing their common practice of humiliating girls. I said in the article that a dollar bill is not a measuring implement and that having one placed on my body against my will made me feel like I was being treated like a stripper. The PR nightmare made them stop.
A male teacher with questionable intentions who I later smoked weed with at a party praised me in front of our film class for āfighting the man.ā Everyone clapped. We attended a lot of mediation meetings and they were so afraid that we were going to sue that i was able to leverage it to graduate despite being on the precipice of being held back due to failing my classes from not doing work š I still canāt do math to this day

in retrospect this isnāt that big of a deal but i went to a very small boarding school of about 500 girls in a very small, conservative town where literally nothing happens and everyone knows everything about EVERYONE, so this was a big thing for US, but might not be for many.
so there was this new girl that joined the school in grade 9, and she joined my homeroom class and was pretty nice. she was a little off beat, but for the most part everything seemed pretty okay and normal. we ironically started calling each other ābest friendā until we eventually became friends.
she was a big spender. sheās buying at the tuckshop at break, after school, before school like every day. and mind you, we are boarders, most of us get a small allowance every month to go to town, to order food, buy essentials etc. i know the allowance of most people was not enough to buy from the tuckshop everyday. and i just thought damn, this girl must be rich rich.
people quickly picked up on this though, and started asking her for money at the tuckshop. myself included. from grades 9-11 i used to be a tuckshop hustler (a damn good one at that!), like ask everyone for R2 until i had enough to buy a meal. but this girl would either just buy you the meal or just give out R10, R20, R50. and this id a lot of money! when business was slow iād settle for a packet of chips and juice and that would come to about R8, the cheapest meal was a chip roll and that was about R13 and the most expensive was a wrap which was around R25 (if i remember correctly.)
so sheād just give out this money to MULTIPLE people throughout the day. i genuinely thought she was a BALLER! she had told me that she was switching schools, i donāt remember why, but she ended up leaving later that year. it was only AFTER she left that i heard that she used to steal peopleās money.
so in her hostel they used to have sleepovers on the weekends and every week it was a different room. she would (allegedly) go to these sleepovers and steal peopleās money. i also found out that my class had chipped in money to buy me a gift, (birthdays were very big at our school and i had the first birthday in my class). turns out she stole it too!
this is very underwhelming, but like just imagine this playing out like in an episode of derry girls yk

I ended up going to high school on a scholarship so there's a lot of rich kid, scions of people who make all their money in tech nonsense I had to put up with, but I spent most of my days listening to obscure music and smoking a ton of weed. There was a girl who was infamously known for not being smart, but she also supplied all the booze at the parties so nobody ever brought it up. She got into USC, somehow, and everyone thought something was up but didn't say anything, since, booze at parties. Later, that Varsity Blues thing happened, and it turned out that her and her sister's parents were one of the highest spenders in gaming the system, so they ended up getting perp walked by the cops in front of the whole school, which really put into perspective the weird little world I happened to be adjacent to.
Oh there was also a white kid (who was also student body president) who tried out a rap career, and the terrible track leaked and it spread all over, to the point of blaring it over the speakers at prom, I don't know if I have a copy but it was hysterical to hear in a fancy hotel ballroom.
