Yea stuff like... Tik Tok... Instagram... fighting in hallways, bragging about skipping class...

Low-key "gangs" (not a real gang, but like, tribalism and if you "join" them, you're expected to bully people not part of the group)

Then you got the other side of it, kids of tiger parents, the loners, etc...

I mean, the closest group I could "relate" to, that doesn't act like "gangsters" would be I think this groups of kids that are sort of gamers I think, but they play these triple A games that I don't even have the hardware for nor money for games, and they play card games that I tried, but never could get into. There's these Mandarin speakers that were kinds into pop music of Korean and Mandarin songs, but I don't even feel "Chinese" enough to feel like I'd ever belong, can't even speak Mandarin good enough since I got here during earlu childhood, also I kinda am not into the stuff they're into.

Also, friend circles form since middle school, so I kinda missed the "deadline" of forming friendships. I kinda didn't venture and talk to people during freshman year, so that just exacerbated the problem. Once these groups form, you are always an outsider.

So... yea... highschool... ugh... kinda hate it tbh...
