Something about cliques...?

Today, while I was once again roaming around the www, I saw this interesting page from a manga.

Page from onani master kurosawa (click to see full image)

Personally, I wouldn't suggest girls reading this manga (it's already completed, with 32 chapters) or guys suggesting the manga to girls either (unless they're "that" kind of girl or something, your call hehe). But the fact that this particular manga shows a typical classroom setting, you could see how students tend to "herd" [based on the picture] in a class.

Basically, most students don't want to be with grouped to other people when they're asked to. usually these reasons stand out: A. they would feel more comfortable working with their own friends, thus enhancing cooperation; B. they want a "singularity" of thoughts; or C. They just do, and don't want to be separated from their friends. As a student myself, I find the usual "clique" setting a cliché, but hey, beats being alone in the far corners of the room, right?

anyways, if you're one of these types (and I personally am), try to meet new people
abuse what they can give you / use extortion when possible
and try to meet and greet new people to work with from time-to-time!

You'll never know what you'll find out about people that you don't usually hang out with, right?
