Melanie Snapp is cool girl. She’s got long blond hair, blue eyes and athletic body, trendy clothes and the friends. And, at times, well, she hates it. 
«I’m just sick of it», say Melanie. Don’t get her wrong. She likes being popular – hanging at the country club, dating the cutest guys in school. She just doesn’t always like the popular people. «Sometimes I wish I didn’t know any of them», she says. «Sometimes I wish I could tell them, but them it would just cause a fight». No kidding. You see, Melanie’s been on the other side of the popularity. «I used to be really short and kind of chubby in the eighth grade», she admits. «They were so snotty. I watch them at school assemblies making fun of people». Sometimes, she was the one being made fun of. «They whispered about me, too» she says.
But she still wanted to be one of them. «They were cool. But other times, I didn’t want to be one of them because they were so aggressive». 
At the end of her eighth year, Melanie became more athletic, grew her hair long and made friends with some of the popular girls on her fiend hockey team – her passport to popularity. «Its weird», Melanie says. «My best friend now was the one who gave me hard time and made me feel stupid». 
At first it was cool – always doing fun stuff like swimming at peoples private pools, going to concerts together. She got into all the «right» parties. 
«To be popular, you have to be perfect – have the perfect clothes, the perfect hair, the perfect face. Forget having some zit on your face,» Melanie complains. « If you don’t look just like them, they rag on you». 
Plus, the mates pressure on her about drinking. «When they say, Drink, drink, drink, I say no…. and they know I mean it», she claims. «Then they say Oh, you’re so boring. You just come here and sit. But I feel I can have fun without having to do all of that», she says. «I stay in the group because i like being with them», says Melanie. «But now when they make fun of people, I tell them I don’t like it, and they respect me for that»
