What does it mean to be someone? People always say you're only someone when you have something to live for. Like on Shark Tale, a kids movie, the main character thinks he will only be a somebody if he's rich and famous. That's totally the opposite of what I think. People go through high school only wanting to be the most popular, the prettiest, or being the richest. For me though, none of that matters. I don't judge people over some things like that. It only matters what is on the inside. Being "somebody" to me means you always try your best in life and never give up. That is my outlook on life. So don't worry being about "somebody", be yourself:)

It is a major problem in High School to be someone or be the most popular. So I decided to give my point of view to help encourage others.

I agree with you 100% Nobody enjoys the simple things in life any more. Good job and I am glad there is some people who "understand" what it means to be a "real someone" :)
