Life is a Popularity Contest
Life is a popularity contest.

Media tells us that we need to think of ourselves as wonderful, and that the opinion of others doesn't matter. But everything, from your peers in high school, to the college application committees, to your teachers, to potential employers...
if they're all rejecting you, then maybe you're not so great as you thought. I've looked back at all of these judgments and decided that even though I see myself as a great person, maybe I'm not looking at myself critically enough. There must be a reason why others reject me, and maybe it's because I'm just not that great. I'm not as great as I want to believe myself to be. I look at the mirror and I see someone insignificant and unimportant. A jigsaw piece that stands outside of a puzzle already complete with no place.
Don't get me wrong, I never thought of myself as the best thing out there. But I've always had a sense of self respect. Now I feel pointless.
