Based God Bless Us, Every One!

A lot of people have misconceptions about catholic school. I mean, yes we learn about Jesus and yes some of our teachers used to be nuns but there are layers to this, man. The catholic school social scene is like Gossip Girl for people just as rich but much less fancy. There are 6 big schools, which are sometimes referred to as "The Double Trinity." (Although if you actually called it that you would not be cool) I go to one of the main schools and as someone who is part of that scene let me tell you, it's fucking weird. It's like this whole sub-culture that the general public doesn't know about. We meet at football games, fancy ass parties, tus in people's backyards, kickbacks, and birthday parties that are supposed to be PG but those 2 kids always bring R rated stuff (everyone was secretly hoping they would though). There's somewhat of a hierarchy and the best way to explain it is this.

1. The Famous Kids: Not actually famous but everyone knows their name even if they haven't met them. They know what school they go to, who they've hooked up with, and where they're going to be during the weekend.


2. The Popular Kids: Not quite as big as the Famous Kids, but pretty well known. You'd go if you were invited to their party and you probably know what school they go to. You could casually hang out with these kids (if you're on the same tier) or tu with them.


3. The Bad Kids: Okay so I almost put these after the Chill kids because the Bad kids don't really give a shit about social status or anything mostly. They're usually the ones bringing the party to the party (if you catch my drift). Most of them are a little more "indie" then the rest. Like Tumblr, cyber-goth, art people.


4. The Chill Kids: These kids know a fair amount of people. They show up to parties (sometimes) and maybe dance but usually don't take part in any illicit activities.


5. The Randos: Basically just the background characters at school. Maybe you'd see them at a dance or something and say hi but you don't know them and they don't know you. 


Thats a rough sketch of what kids are like here. 


*I don't if this is specific to where I live but every boy in the top 2 tiers wears those short sleeve button up hawaiian shirts, nike socks, and fucking khakis wherever they go.

  1. Really accurate I feel Khakis are part of swag kid initiation.
