MASSIE ELISABETH BLOCK

What people don't understand is that being popular is an art.

It's something I've been planning for since goddamn kindergarten.

It's not something you wait for, or something you dream of.

If you want to be popular, you take control.

And I will.

I'm tired of "blending in."

I'm tired of being "averagely smart" and having "average looks."

I'm tired of being known as "Alicia Rivera's ex-best friend."

And by the way, Alicia Rivera?

She can consider herself done.

ALICIA MARIANA RIVERA

Massie Block needs to get a grip.

No, really.

She thinks I don't notice the envious stares she shoots at me when we pass in the hallway.

I do.

She thinks I don't notice how she clenches her fists when my boyfriend, Derrick Harrington, hugs or kisses me.

I do.

She needs to get a life, and realize I'm over her.

I dumped her.

We are no longer best friends.

I know that, and hope she does too.

Or I'll have to destroy her this year.

Parents honestly don't get it.

For real.

They say what they're supposed to: "Oh, darling, tell me anything; I'll always be here for you."

But when you do tell them something (especially if it's true), forget it.

All they do is scream, yell, and ground you.

No wonder our society is corrupt.

What if, for instance, I approach my dear mother and casually mention, "Hey, Mom, I'm pregnant."

She would freak out, shout for ten minutes, throw a couple of priceless family heirlooms, then start shouting again.

Tell me anything.

Yeah, right.

Not that the example I used is true, of course.

I'm not pregnant.

Oops, sorry, I forgot.

I actually am.

KRISTEN MICHELLE GREGORY

It's no secret I'm poor.

It's no secret my friends have to buy me almost all of my clothes and sports equipment.

It's no secret I'm on a scholarship.

It's no secret I have to maintain a B+ at the lowest to continue playing soccer.

It's no secret I'm struggling to keep my grades up.

It is a secret that I have brain cancer.

CLAIRE STACEY LYONS

There's a list of adjectives people use to describe girls like Alicia Rivera.

Beautiful, fun, flirtatious, amazing, stunning, cunning, lively, wealthy, fabulous.

Then there's a list of adjectives people use to describe girls like me.

Mousy, plain, average, boring, quiet, pushover.

There's nothing about me that makes me special.

I'm not good at any particular sport or hobby.

I'm sort of intellectual, but not enough to be a super-smart kid.

I'm basically just another semi-pretty useless face.

So when Massie Block (beautiful, fun, flirtatious, amazing, stunning, cunning, lively, wealthy, fabulous Massie Block, who was once upon a time perfect enough to be Alicia Rivera's best friend), thinks I'm worth something to her, who am I to oppose it?

That's why I don't hesitate when I say okay.
