Entry 1: Draft 1

I. Introduction

a. I decided to choose the inquiry question how are teens and adolescents affected by their social status in school because the topic interests me. I believe it is important to know how teens are really affected by their high school attributes in the long run.

1. The source of my interest is my experience with popularity. With the schools I grew up in the word did not exist, and being a follower was looked down on. Fitting in was the issue but never trying to be known by everyone.

2. Originally I thought that adolescents and the popular act is left behind in high school, or the early years of college. However in my research I found that those behaviors and attributes developed in high school can determine the kind of adult life of adolescents, and could stay with some.

b. This blog is important and affects teens, adolescents and  young adults.

1. This blog is important to me because i myself am a young adult, and it is important to know how and if my behavior is affecting my life in the near future.

2. it is important that teens realize if the lengths they go to reach popularity in school and their behavior in maintaining high popularity will affect their lives as adults. Also the behavior of teens with a particularly lower social status.
