Sure, OK. ASLTO stands for Australian Support League for Teen Outcasts. Basically its an organisation i am trying to set up to look after the nerds, chubbies, USBs, loners, emos, homos/bis and generally the freaks among us. My theory is that you're not one of us unless you have had or are going to have an issue at some point, by that i mean the likes of depression. Some of us are on our own, some of us are in posses, but it is soooo bloody important that we can all understand and support eachother, and that everyone has someone they can talk to. Because, I don't know if you know this, but popular people don't attempt or commit suicide. Its us.

I am in on that idea!
Its so important as we are not alone and we feel like were alone so it is so important for us to support this and i am an outcast and it hurts feeling alone!

I think that there is no stronger bond than the bond that is shared by a group of outcasts

I make it my personal business to pay attention when new girls come to the school to watch over them and make sure they aren't left on their own with no friends and if they don't get accepted into another group then to invite them to join ours.

This is a good idea. You're right, nobody should feel left out because nobody is perfect. We all have our problems, and can't see why people alienate me because i actually learn something.

this poem that i wrote is very relevant to our cause:
The freaks
Were not your cherry lipgloss girls or your ultra macho guys were the freaks, the nerds, the wimps all those whom you despise
Were a mix of people, a jumble among us you may find emos, smarties, muslims all those left behind
We don't conform unto your rites though we have none of our own We are abnormal, strange, wild victims of kindness not shown.
Something about us worried you uncalled differences made you frown So in your youth and naivety your response was to put us down
You made us the freaks, the monsters treated us like weeds, or diseased you forced us out to fend for ourselves to survive like wolves we appeased
So now youre sorry, but we dont care were wolves, around the edges we prowl we've survived through our own methods try to interfere and we'll growl
Because you used us as stepping stones and you stood on us to climb why should we now bend to the will of those who treated us like slime?
You try to make amends with us but we dont trust your people we'll play the game, we will pretend that your attempts arent feeble
We want nothing from you, we never have on your cast off we do not thrive your attention is not what we crave but of revenge we are deprived
Yes we stare, but its not admiration for behind our watching eyes we think with amusement that your fun will be done quick as a butterfly dies
For the wrong doers are not ours the bad guys belong to you the lot of you are your own undoing we cant wait till youre through
Maybe it sounds like were threatening you but youre not lambs and you know it we're the wolves and you are tigers canine and feline, were opposite
We'll stand back and watch you go and when youre gone we'll be freed after you were ready for the world for we've become a tougher breed
As the wolves we ought to thank you we will always remember you as the flashy girls and bad @$$ boys who showed us what not to do.
Oh yeah and if u want to see more of my poetry go to fanfics> poetry> Kelsey's poetry.

i had written heaps but i accidentally hit the back button GRR fanfuckingtastic!
ANYWAY>> i really like the idea of ASLTO, since i am a huge outcast. life is not easy for someone who is an outcast but that is usually only in school since in everyday life you are judged less. being visibly different is hard for me, people stare, people point, people wave their hands in front of my face its just downright annoying. depression is another issue, it is always good to have someone to reach out to, or to be reached out to. my depression has worsened over the past month i am now finding myself physically ill, needing 12-15 hours of sleep and only being able 2 eat 2 meals per day. (in the last 48 hours i have had 4 hours of sleep and a seven hour calisthenics stage rehearsal" im hanging by a thread
