There are many stereotypes in this world. i think everyone stereotypes and is stereotyped in some way. I think there are two different ways that people view me. I think sometimes people view me and the skinny little pretty girl who likes to have fun and therefore can't be intelligent. That bugs me. It's like, just because i don't look like a geek doesn't mean i have to be an idiot. Another stereotype which is actually the reverse of the other is that once people discover that i am semi intelligent, they assume that i can do no wrong when it comes to academics and that it is a complete failure if i make a B or heaven forbid, a C! That is perhaps the stereotype i encounter the most, because anyone who gets to know at any level at all learns that i am semi intelligent and thus they assume that i alwayz make good grades. the other stereotype is like, a surface one. And anyone who judge me from the surface rather than getting to me is not someone i would want to be friends with, nor would i have any regard for their opinion of me. The other stereotype of intelligence is the more predominant one, the one that hurts me sometimes. Because then I feel like a failure if I do not excel at everything I do. It also bugs me because I know that I'm capable of excelling, but sometimes, it just doesn't work. like my humanities quiz today, I knew all the answers last night. I had read everything and was prepared, but as soon as I went to write it down, it was gone. so yeah, that irritates me, because I knew everything on this quiz and was fully capable of making an A on it, but I didn't. I probably made an F and i even forgot to write my name on it. lol. So yeah, that's not cool. I guess maybe its things like that that cause people to make that stereotype because they know just as well as I do that what I'm capable of, but it just isn't cool when I don't get any slack cut for trying on and not succeeding every single time.
