the outsiders made me realize things about my life

posted by JanaceCade

first I read it in class
then I watch the movie
then I think about what I have in common with characters
my eyes layed on Johnny
he was shy
he depended on his friends yet he can watch for himself
I was in so much pain from friends
I thought I could depend on them
they did so much but I always let it slide if it wasn't on me
but that group had a ...thing they would usually do
they picked on one person with a small flaw
and they diside to ditch her
that's what they do
in about a month they are out of the group
I've known that since day one
I've never known it would last so long
4 years. that's pretty long
I had to change for them
I lost my southern self
and disdied to keep the tomboy me
they didn't like it but I eventually rubbed of on them
I became girly
every time a guy would start talking about something girls wouldn't find interesting
I would want to join in
but I didn't
I stayed with my friends
talked girly
eventually ditched ripped jeans for skirts
soon something hit me
I'm not what they think I am!
I'm who I want to be
strong
guyish
went back to wearing ripped jeans
never pre ripped
I was who I was
they shouldn't mess with me
they started
ignoring me
I was so quiet and shy
no one could get me talking
I started noticing how much they lie to me
"don't worry Jennifer we like you"
everyone else would stay quiet
I felt
a million things
I could never name it like I wanted it
after watching the outsiders
I realize I am an
the perfect way to say it
the outsiders
then I found a friend just like me
PonygirlCirtis7
she's shy and funny and nice and love The Outsiders
she made me feel better
when I stopped worrying about my old friends I didn't need so much of that
now I don't feel like I talk to her enough
or love Johnny enough
I feel neutral about them
but NO
I love Johnny ether way
I need to talk to Ponygirl more

this is the smartass Steve Randle

*Another Addition*

after the boys caught up with each other i instructed Two-Bit, Soda, Steve, and Darry to pile back in the car. but Steve was debating with me.

"why?" he asked me.

"cause i said so," i said with my arms crossed across my chest. "just get in the car, Randle."

"why should i listen to YOU? youre a baby."

"im a BABY?" Steve was wasting my patience.

"yeah. ya know? the youngest. i mean, CLEARLY you are. look at how short you are." Two-Bit and Soda were chortling in the car. i looked at Darry. he was getting impatient with Steves clowning around.

hes making fun of my shortness! i thought....

A Ponyboy Curtis Poem--Poem 2--The Great Writer I Wish I Knew

posted by PonygirlCurtis7

heres yet another poem that i wrote. enjoy!

i cried when i looked at the sky
it reminded me of you
my tears were hot with love
and affection for you

i want you so bad, honey
youre all ive ever wanted
but i guess thats too much to ask
God wont give me you, im haunted

so i stay up at night with you by my side
but thats only a dream
its never anything real
baby, i wish you knew me

if only you were real in my reality
youre real in my imaginatin
but daydreaming isnt enough
i want your affection

i really do wish you knew who i am
but your love i will never get
your affection i will never feel
but, before, we HAVE met

i read about your story
and i truly am sorry
you suffered a great loss and your pain i feel
and i wanted to say to you: Ponyboy, you are the author of your own life story

the whole fictional outsiders gang...but if they are in my world, are they REALLY fictional?

*The Whole Outsiders Gang*

i stood on the corner of Wallace and Kurf at 2 in the afternoon with Ponyboy, Dallas, and Johnny and waited for Sodapop and Darry Curtis, Two-Bit Mathews, and Steve Randle, a little pissed. you wanna know why i have to wait on a street corner for fictional boys while mad? i'll tell you:

four hours earlier--

"oh, yeah," Ponyboy said. "i should probably tell you that Johnny and Dally and i have to go meet the gang." we were eating breakfast. i gagged and almost choked on my toast. i didnt think i heard him right.

"what?" i asked.

"we have to go meet my brothers Soda and...

"what is it?" Janes asked me.

"would it be alright if three friends could stay with you for a little while?" i asked. Janes looked over at the three boys.

"them?"

i nodded. "it would only be for a little while!"

"it is fine with me, Amber. but may i know their names first?" i smiled sheepishly.

"oh, i said. "right. well"--i walked over to Dally--"this is Dallas Winston, but you can call him Dally and--"i pointed at Johnny--"this is Johnny Cade and--" i walked over to Ponyboy and smiled at him--"this is Ponyboy Curtis." he smiled back. Janes had a look of suspicion on his...

NONE OF THE FOLLOWING IS ORIGANLLY MINE...Thanks! (:

1. If you see Johnny as a deep person like Ponyboy does, add this to your profile.

2. Don't want a knight in shining armor; I want a greaser in Converse and hair grease!

3. If you're against animal cruelty, then copy this into your profile!

4. If you're against animal experimentation, then copy and paste!

5. when you hear the song "Replay" by Iyaz, your version of the first line is "Johnny's like a melody in my head...", then copy and paste.

6. If you love greasers, are a self-confessed greaser fan, and are a proud member of TEAM GREASER...

Outsiders Trivia

posted by TomboyWriter

During filming, the actors playing the "soc"s were given leather-bound scripts and were put up in luxury accommodations, while the "greasers" were given battered paperback scripts and had to stay in the ground floor of the hotel, as director Francis Ford Coppola wanted to create tension between the two groups.

The letter jacket that the "soc" is wearing as he challenges Darrel is the letter jacket from the High School that author S.E. Hinton attended.

Over a half hour of the film was cut before release, due to movie executives fearing it to be too long and a chance of upsetting fans of the...

Part 8 of If Johnny and Dally had lived (from Johnny and Dally's point of view)

posted by TomboyWriter

Johnny
Dally don’t hate me so that’s good Kyri worked out in the end and she starts coming to school since this is permenate. She makes a lot of girls jealous even some soc’s. Her eyes that are the light hazel are the most wanted trait and even Pony and Two-bit are drooling over her. I keep her tight to my side as if in a defense mecanisim. She and I have a lot of classes together and she likes it that way even though she’s in higher classes than me and now that she’s here Dally starts coming to school. Rene doesn’t hate her as much as before and Dally and Rene are growing closer....

First of all my sisters been writing but shes gotten lazy with posting so I'll be posting she'll be writing

Johnny
We went to the movies and it was fine I had my arm around Kim and Dally had his around Rene but Ponyboy was mean to Kim and slime ball Angela whined throughout the movie. I think that’s the only time Pony’s truthfully wanted to pull a blade on someone. We had a few cokes and when we climbed under the fence and they didn’t whine I knew these were our type of girls well at least Kim and Rene were. Angela on the other hand whined when we climbed under the...

The Outsiders~Another Point of View (Chapter 7)

posted by Greaserluver

For the next few days, Ponyboy and I took turns reading Gone With The Wind. It was a pretty good book. I should have went to see the movie with Johnny and Pony. And it passed a lot of time. I finally got used to our hair, even though I still hated mine. It was the same blond hair of many of Two-Bit's girlfriends. At least it's a little longer than I thought they would cut it. It was a few inches longer than my shoulders. But like I said, I still hated it. One day I woke up and saw Ponyboy walk outside. He went to smoke a cigarette. I followed along and started smoking too. It was before dawn...

The Outsiders~Another Point of View (Chapter 6)

posted by Greaserluver

When I first woke up I had no idea where I was. This place looked old and creepy and dirty. When I sat up I finally realized where I was. I was in the church on top of Jay Mountain. Johnny had killed a Soc. Quiet Johnny, the one that never talks, the one person that wouldn't hurt anyone or anything on purpose, had killed a human being. We were really being chased by the cops. Maybe after a few days everything will be alright. Maybe the cops would understand that Johnny was doing this for self defense. I mean after all the Socs had almost drowned my brother. Maybe the cops would let Darry, Sodapop,...

The Outsiders (my point of view) Chapter 2

When he found out it was Two-Bit he was ok. After the movie we all headed home. I was going to sleep over at Carli's and Ponyboy's house. Pony went to the lot with Johnny for a little while. Me and Carli walked to her house when we got ther we went to Carli's room to set up how we were going to sleep. By the time it was 1:50 we were all freaking out. At 2:00 am Ponyboy walked in. "do you know what time it is? Well it's 2 o'clock in the morning kiddo." "I fell asleep in the lot.I didn't mean to." "You did what? And I can't even call th cops because we would get split up so fast that it would...

The outsiders - a sequal( chapter one)

I rushed into my room and plopped on my bed throwing my books at my desk, my aiming was perfect .... almost. A bunch of papers spewed unto my floor. Groaning i got up from where i lay only a few measly seconds and went to pick up the papers. They were mostly school papers from last year i didnt care about. I tossed them into the wire trashcan sitting next to my desk carelessly. I picked up the last thing on the ground, a yelow tore up folder that looked flamiliar. I opened it ciriously and those words i worked so hard on last year flashed before my eyes- when i stepped into the brightness...

Johnny
I got out of the hospital and by some miracle I can walk. Thought it still sometimes hurts Ponyboy and the rest of the gang understand. Me and Pony avoid the park as much as we can and it seems everyone knows our story some of us love us for being heroes and saving those kids and say they’d never done that but some others hate us mostly the Socs but that’s not really new though maybe their hatred for Greasers has grown. Cherry avoids me and Pony hates it and their relationship doesn’t last very long because of it though I told him it’s fine and I understand....

Outsiders Imagine: Darry {NOT MINE}

posted by MJ_Fan_4Life007

You put your head in your hands and breathe deeply. How where you going to tell him? You had gotten the phone call today.

You were actually close to Soda. Danny played with Grace and Logan all the time. You couldn’t even begin to imagine how they felt.

You hear the front door open. Darry was home now. You take another deep breath, and sit at the kitchen table.

Just breathe.

He walks into the kitchen. “Hey babe, what’s wrong?” He asks, setting down his wallet and keys.

You swallow. “I got a call.” Is all you manage to say.

“About?” He asks, eyebrows raised.

“Soda’s dead.” You blurt out.

The look on Darry’s face would haunt your memory for the rest of your life.

He just sat down on the floor in pure shock, mouth open, eyes wide.
