prep

There are 2 kinds of preps: the "poor"-ish preps (who are not poor but actually middle class) who wear Abercrombie and Fitch and American Eagle... etc.... Then there are the really really rich 18-car-garage, Indian-Mountain-billionaire-heirs who wear things like Ralph Lauren, Izod, Lacoste..etc. Having attended a prep school(UGH!!!) for a year, i would say that I am an expert. Preps almost always own a puffy North Face jacket, in light colors (i.e. pastels). Some have blond highlights or wish they did. They commonly use phrases such as: "Oh, my God!" and "Dude", "Man" and they use like and um as sentence crutches because they need to figure out what they are going to say. There is always a popular phrase or word that is used constantly among an isolated group of preps that slowly works its way down the East Coast where preps normally reside. The current word at my school among the small group of preps is "sketchy". This word is used to describe anything from people to coffee. Prep girls are normally stupid and they play with thier hair. They usually get straight As anyway. Preps wear UGGS which are ugly. Preps always talk about hair days and what clothes they want. OR at least these subjects dominate most of thier conversations. Preps watch TV as a social thing. Shows such as The O.C. depict a lifestyle that preps wish they had. This is why they like watching them so much. Most prep girls are bitches and they talk about people behind their backs. (Think: Mean Girls)
PREP BOYS:
Prep Boys have flippy hair and they usually wear a baseball cap that is way back on their head and tilted up and slightly to the side. Cap wearing is an art. Prep boys want prep girls. Boys and Girls talk about each other as object to be "caught" and used to raise social status, not to make the couple happier. Rich-ness is a prep mentality. As long as you have the clothes it doesn't matter if you really are rich or not. Preps are all about appearance and surfaces, they are shallow. Preps suck, mostly. Preps are normally considered "popular" even if they do not have as many friends as other people do. They are popular in the sense that preps are depicted as popular in popular culture such as movies and books. Popularity and fitting in are very important to preps. God, I should write a paper on this. There are however, accidental preps, but that is another entry. My hands are getting tired.

"I hope my preppy attire will help me fit in and be popular"
