How to be striking and really popular in school
From ArticleWorld
To be striking and really popular in school does not mean that you have to be very different from the rest of the crowd. In fact the really popular people are actually most normal and not extraordinary. But they do have that something else that sets them apart from everyone else around them. Here are some pointers to becoming one of the hip and happening without compromising your routine and your person too much.

A few suggestions
- Dress well. Dressing in weird clothes will definitely set you apart from others and make you look different but will not make you popular. Wear clean and fresh clothes and follow the fashion to the extent possible and not more. Wear clothes because they look good on you and not because the rest of the world seems to be wearing similar clothes.
- Try and avoid make-up as much as possible. A bare, scrubbed face with a healthy and glowing skin is better than any make-up.
- When you go to parties, make sure that you mix around with guests and have a good time. Standing at the edge of the crowd waiting for things to happen to you will not solve anything. Get out there and dance and have fun. If you do not have many friends at the party find someone else who is also alone and strike up a conversation with them. Two people who are alone will not be alone when they are together.
- Smile, it makes the world go round. Try to smile at anyone and everyone. Don’t feel self conscious about it and you will find that people smile back at you.

Do’s
- Keep your hair and your body clean.
- Be comfortable with your body, do not wear clothes that do nothing to highlight your good features.

Don’ts
- Don’t wear sloppy make-up or bright lipstick, both stick out a mile like a sore thumb.
- Don’t get into the popular girl/ boy mode by trying to join the group that is popular and hanging on to the fringes of the crowd.
