Too cool for school
You’ve always wanted to be popular in school. You’ve dreamt a thousand times what it would
be like to be the star of your school’s football team or that tall blonde girl who everyone fancies.
‘Cool’ people are attractive, confident and always wear stylish outfits. Everyone wants to hang
out with them. But often “cool” people aren’t very nice! They can be selfish and bossy. At times
they get impatient with people who might be shy or a bit quiet.
If you really want to make some true friends, here are some tips. Don’t choose friends based on
looks. What really matters in a friend is not being slim and beautiful but reliable and generous.
Choose friends who are humorous, talkative and who never treat others badly. In fact, these are
the people who are truly cool! Try to choose friends that you can actually benefit from. Those
who are creative and have interests other than fashion and parties.
Be flexible but don’t say or do things that make you feel uncomfortable just to make cool’
people like you. Always speak your mind. Those who really care for you will still be your
friends- even if at times you drive them crazy. Remember: real friends are those you can open up
to. Those who will hold their tongue and will never give away your secrets.
Take a minute and think. What really matters? Making friends that count or counting friends?
1. Popular kids in school are often selfish and bossy. _______
2. It is better to hold your tongue and never speak your mind or you will end up all alone.______
3. You will benefit more from having one friend who is creative and interesting than having ten who are
boring. _

5. “Cool” people are usually ugly._______
