Beach Way USA is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world. Maybe it's nothing like it. But, if you look closely you might see someone like you. Someone trying to find their way; someone trying to find their place; someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one in the world who's struggling, who’s frustrated, or unsatisfied at barely getting by. But, that feeling is a lie and if you just hold on; just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find the way and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes, someone to help us hear the music in the world. To remind us that it won’t always be this way. That someone is out there, and that someone will find you.
MOTM was decided by a poll in which members vote for who they think should take the position.

Typical High School - Beachwood High
It is amazing how you can
Spend the rest of your life
Reacting to how you were
Defined in high school
So cruel…..
By others, and how it
Never seems to go away
No matter what you say
Like a bad dream.
Those cliques of jocks,
And burnouts, nerds,
Brains, and whatever else
You can fathom,
Not the mention the ones
That seemed totally anonymous,
Relegated to no status that even
A label can give.
The torments, derision, pranks
That are heaped around
Can surround
the mind
And pockmark it forever.
The varieties are endless
It can motivate for the good, the
Bad and the ugly.
Smugly
Clinging to the social structures
That adults have created.
Be cool
Rule
Laugh at the fool
Class clowns
Scholastic renown
That chokes the life out with
Expectations
As it someday hits you
most will never come true.
It was
All
A
Lie!
The cliques « Thread Started on Sept 20, 2007, 9:25am »
Types of clique
Popular: The cool group, the most 'attractive' by Hollywood standards, athletes and cheerleaders. Seen as mainstream airheads by other groups. Girls tend to be blonde and wear pink.
- Queen bee - 4 Pretty Pinks - 2 spots free. - Top Jock - 4 The boys - Populars - Jocks - Preps
Arty intellectuals: Not quite geeks as they have the whole boho thing going on, this lot tend to be (or pretend to be) oblivious of the whole clique system and spend lunches discussing philosophy, strolling around galleries or reciting poetry.
- Arty intellectuals - Drama Geeks
Rebels:These are the bad ass' of the school, they are always getting into some form of trouble whether it be beating someone up from another clique or skipping class. You would not want to pass a rebel on a dark night.
- Rebel
Stoners/ slackers: Baggy clothes, blim burns, nicotine stains, scruffy long hair and an ability to have whole conversations compiled of quotes from slacker movies. They want to be everyone's friend but the feeling's not mutual.
- Stoners - Slackers
Freaks/ Goths: Head to toe black and eyeliner galore, scarily huge boots, and the look of the zombie about them, they scare off other cliques who fear the may bite them.
- Freaks - Goths - Emo's
Loners: Prefer life on the outside or maybe everyone else prefers them on the outside. Think Christian Slater in Heathers.
-Loner
Drifters: No set group, drifters split their time with all the other cliques, and mostly get on with everyone. Easy going and fairly 'normal'.
- Averages - Class Clowns
Geeks/ nerds: While the net has suddenly got cool and techies are more likely to don club wear, listen to techno and take lots of drugs than have cheese and wine evenings, the short-trousered geek stereotypes still exist, while the new techies have become the 'cyber clique'. Brain boxes and swots usually get pushed in here too, but only those that wear bottle-top glasses.
- Geeks - Nerds - Band Geeks
Scenesters: These, are the trend setters. These girls and guys are the people, who like the popular crowd, have loads of money. Though their totally the opposite of the popular crowd. The Populars and the Scenesters, have been basically at war with each other.
