If I could be your punk rock princess…

December 16th, 2002 with 242 views

I admit it. I am a hypocrite. Today is the day my batch decided on the cheerleaders for the cheerleading competition on January, and I signed up. Well actually, it was Annie who signed me up but I asked her to do it because I was too chicken to do it myself. I mean, after preaching non-conformity during my punk rock days I didn’t think I was in the position to ask to be a cheerleader on my last year of high school. But fortunately, Rajelyn (head cheerleader) didn’t make any objections when she saw my name on the list. Her only worry is that I won’t have enough time for cheerleading practice because I’m part of the school play. But I’ll be able to manage, somehow. Glaiza and Kriya are cheerleaders anyway, and they’re in the play too. So I guess that means I’m in.

Screw non-conformity! I am what I am and what I am is me. And what I want to do is wave pom-poms and prance around in a tiny skirt and show off my awful, bug-bitten legs and dance.

I swear, my reproductive organs are so….screwed up. Yesterday I saw blood on my underwear, which naturally meant that I finally had my damn period. So I placed a pad and went about my business. When I checked it again a couple of hours later, there were only several drops of blood on it. And then when I woke up this morning, there wasn’t any blood at all. I expected to menstruate again today but none came. My mom says I have a threatened abortion but duh, I’m not pregnant. I think it’s probably just stress. I mean, after what happened yesterday, I guess my blood wanted to retreat for awhile and bleed some other time. I hate being so freaking irregular! To think that I got my first period the week I turned eleven.

    I’ve used to been total anti-cheerleading and anti-school sports since back then, everyone who was part of them were huge bitches and assholes. The cheerleading squad would pick a male loaner and make fun of him by pretending they like him and all. The football team would then pick on that same kid and embarise him infront of the whole school. They also do it on a female loaner too.
    This year, a couple of girls that I know and like are part of the cheerleading squad. They joined beause they enjoy dancing and they don’t do it for popularity, which is what I think why most of the sqad joins. Ever since then my hatred has gone down for the cheerleading squad. It’s also starting for our football team, but not by much.
    I still have some kind of hatred towards cheerleading, yet it’s not as huge as I used of been with it because a couple of people I actually like joined it and I stoped hating because they joined and all.
