Blog post #7-8: Stargirl

What is it about Stargirl that fascinates the students of Mica High yet repulses them at the same time? When many of the students began to copy her and she became popular it was not the reaction I expected. Why do you think that they reacted this way?
   I think that the Mica High students are fascinated by stargirl because she has the bravery to show the parts of her that everyone else hides and hates about themselves. She acts like a five year old because she didn't grow up experiencing the world, or judgement, she was home schooled. Stargirl is innocent, and oblivious to other people talking behind her back because it is a completely new concept to her that people might not like her be causes she is different. In a way, Stragirl is more grown up than everyone else combined because everything that is high school is just childish. Stargirl sees everything that goes on around her and sees all the happiness and beautiful things that everyone else walks past. She dedicates her life to making others lives better. Stargirl has the best way of living because really she is just obliviously happy all the time. The life she lives is beautiful. I think that the reason the students of Mica High are so fascinated by her is because they don't often see people who rise above the herd and are so freely themselves. Stargirl is confident, and they are accepting of her because if this. They admire her.
