Barbie in the Building
My hair is golden yellow,
 My teeth are sparkly white,
 All you guys think I’m just so fake,
 And every girl wants to start a catfight.
 
 They tell me, “Your dumb”,
 They whisper, “Your sweet”,
 They shout, “You look like Barbie”,
 The typical blond girl a guy wants to meet.
 
 After school my hectic day begins,
 With 3 intense hours of soccer,
 And some overly worked broken shins.
 
 Little do they know,
 When I finally arrive at home,
 I start the homework journey,
 Of Trig, Human-phys, English, and Econ,
 That will take me to a place-unknown.
 
 When all is well,
 And I get to sit and eat,
 Maybe watch my favorite TV show,
 Sex and the City can’t be beat.
 
 My names not “dumb blond” or “ditzy-do”,
 I definitely don’t talk like a valley-girl,
 And as a matter of fact,
 My GPA is 6.0 too.
 
 They think I’m clueless of the fact,
 They have decided on what they see,
 I’m not the “typical dumb blond girl”,
 I guess this stereotype is just meant to be.
