Becoming Popular

Labels are often seen at my school, but is that all necessary? I've been called a "nerd" all my life. As a 10th grade student it's kind of difficult to be called a "nerd" since life isn't all roses and butterflies. My sister says that it's time for a chance in life and to quit been a stuck up nerdy girl and be a cool recognize popular girl like her. Though to complete such an unnecessary task there are so many changes in life and risk that I must take. Believe me the simple ones are the painfullest. I might not survive. Who am I kidding I'm Patricia Rosemary I will survive. The real question is how?
