I wish whenever someone saw me they would automatically know how great and unique I am

Even if they could tell, it's not like many would care.

Purchasing billboard space on the highway is not a bad plan, either.

I've come to learn something about people. Most of them are thinking way too much about themselves, whether it be egotism or insecurity, to really give much of a thought to people around them. I used to be a lot more self-conscious and worried about others' opinions of me until I realized that most people just don't care. And that's not necessarily a bad thing, it just means no one's going to go out of their way to prop you up (or knock you down), you've got to do it yourself. (*triumphant music swell*)
Of course, I haven't been in high school for 25 years either. Things are probably different there.

Yup. I call this "the T-shirt bias".
Let's say you decide to wear some really cool t-shirt to school. You're hoping your friends notice etc. They don't, and you feel bad. Because doesn't it seem so obvious, having your amazing shirt right in front of them?
The thing was, they were thinking the exact same thing, and you never noticed their shirt.

Seriously this time, I think if you're frustrated with people not appreciating you enough, the first thing to do is to realize that you don't deserve to be the center of attention, that everyone else is just as great and unique as you, just in other ways, and then to try and appreciate them and love them like you want them to appreciate you. You'll find more fulfillment in living for others than in living for yourself, and you'll probably find that people will appreciate you more if you do the same to them.
I say this as someone who is very prideful, introspective, and always thinking about himself. I can only speak of what I strive towards, not of what I have achieved.

I worry too much about other people's opinions even though I don't really care what they think.

I don't want to be the center of attention, just sometimes I wish people knew, and I don't want this to seem too arrogant, that I'm not just some kid, ya know?

I feel ya. I often get frustrated because I don't get the appreciation for my music that I think I deserve, but at the same time, do I show very much interest in other people's passions and pursuits? Not really. My brother is on the site (as "truedefiance), he can testify to that ![LOL LOL](smileys/smiley36.gif) . If you're talking about the way adults treat you, that's a little different, and I don't really know how to deal with that; I've been there when I was your age, and handled it badly. In my experience you just have to be patient.

Varm luft ble vist Stor gammel blåste Huden av slim Jeg vil drepe deg med kraften av ti tusen hester
Jeg møtte deg Og dette er totalitært Så her er mitt nummer Ikke Forgert endring
Ikke berør mine poser Hvis du vil, mister toll mann Varm hud ble vist Jeg liker pupper
Limonade stå i solen Og dette er bare tull Så her er mitt nummer Så ringe meg å fullføre
Ikke gi sko til hjemløse De vil bruke alle øl Ikke gjør hesten min syk du kvinnefiendtlig rasshøl Gjør pizza kvinne du hjerteløs gris
Her er nummeret mitt Og dette er bare tull Men her er nummeret mitt

Hei jeg har nettopp møtt deg Og dette er crazy Men jeg vil gi det et nummer Så kanskje ring meg Jeg vil gjøre med deg som The Tramp gjør med sin fløyte Jeg vil gjøre med deg som jeg gjør med min bil Men i slutten av video'n får jeg et kjempe sjokk For jeg vet ikke at du er homofil Translates to something like: Hi I just met you And this is crazy But I want to give you a number (a number is slang for coitus in Norwegian) So maybe call me I want to do to you as The Tramp does with his flute I want to do to you as I do to my car But in the end of the video I get a giant shock 'Cause I don't know that you're gay Pretty much in the spirit of the song and the video, I felt, but it doesn't trump Andrew's excellent Norwegian version, which doesn't make any sense at all ![LOL LOL](smileys/smiley36.gif)
