If You Really Knew me...

This is really going to sound damn dumb but I cried and cried when I was watching this show...

To be honest, it was just another random show that I watched when I was enjoying my lazy afternoon at home. I didn't know what this show was all about but as I went on watching I got a better picture...

Let me cut and paste you the summary from MTV website: http://www.mtv.com/shows/if_you_really_knew_me/series.jhtml :

In high school, there are the students who rule the school -- like jocks, cheerleaders, and the popular kids -- and the ones who get picked on -- like nerds, emos, and outcasts. That's just high school, right? But what if you could change that?

Like a reality version of The Breakfast Club, each episode of If You Really Knew Me takes place at a different high school, and follows five students from different cliques as they go through the life-changing experience of Challenge Day, a one-day program that breaks down the walls between cliques, and completely changes the way students view their school and each other. Watch the amazing transformation each week as new students open up for the first time and try to change by revealing who they really are, behind the cliques and the labels. Is it possible to change your life, and maybe even your high school, in one day? These students are going to find out... on If You Really Knew Me.

I guess the scenes in the show were really moving and perhaps I could relate to some of them that I eventually found myself tearing as I was watching. It was interesting to see how the kids put on a front to influence how others judge and view them. During the course, each of them was giving a 2 min air time to start telling others who they are really inside and the starting lines were:

"If you really knew me..."

It made me recall of a similar course which I had attended long time back which also had a similar nature but on a totally different context. I do wonder myself, what will my version of "If you really knew me" be like...

In any case, I hope I can catch the next espisode again...
