12 Times '80s Movies Described The Stereotypes Of Going To An All-Girl's School

Going to an all-girls, private school, I often hear remarks, and stereotypes from people around me. There are definitely many differences between going to a co-ed, public school and a same-gender, private school. But there are also many similarities between the two. I mean, just because I go to an all-girls school, doesn't mean I am a different species. We are the same as everyone else. And we definitely don't think we are better than you. Furthermore, the '80s was probably one of the best decades, and personally it was my favorite (even though I didn't get to live through it). Everything seemed more real back then, and nobody was afraid of what to say. So here are some stereotypes that are thrown at people who go to an all-girls school, according to the '80s.

1. We are all lesbian.

Not all of us are. Just because we go to an all-girls school, doesn't mean we don't like guys.

2. We are very cliquey.

We're not. At all. We are all one big family, and we know every little thing about each other.

3. We care about our appearance -- a lot.

You're lucky if you see any makeup on us, or with brushed hair.

4. There is always drama.

Correction. There is never drama. Like ever.

5. Salad is the only food we eat.

You are more likely to see us shoving pizza into our face.

6. We don't know how to talk to guys.

If anything, we over-talk to guys.

7. We don't socialize with boys.

We do, we really do, but if you want to hit us up, feel free.

9. We all aspire to be nuns.

Just because we go to a Catholic school, doesn't mean we all dream of being nuns.

10. We have weird traditions.

This one is actually true. But nobody gets them, not even us.

11. We are all boring and stuck-up.

We all have respect for each other, and we know when to have fun too.

12. The school is run by nuns, who beat us with rulers and belts.

Really? You really think that happens? Just go home.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
