My life up till now has been pretty good! I have everything that I want, almost. Since I was little, I have had a bit of a weight problem. I am not super big or anything, but I am definitely not little. The guys in my class picked on me a lot, but since I didn't want to be seen crying or make things worse, I would just laugh it off or ignore it, but when I got home I would cry myself to sleep, not letting anyone know what happened. One day we were goofing around and one of the guys came up to me and said, "I would kick you, but I am afraid that my foot would get imbedded in you." I didn't want to cry, so I said, "pretty big word for such a small brain!" But when I got home I refused to eat and went to bed immediately. Now that I am in high school, it really hasn't gotten any better. I have more guy friends than I have ever had, and I am happy not being the most popular kid in school. I still get the mean comments, the weird looks, the talking behind my back, but I am not as worried about that, as long as it is not my friends that are saying that about me. I learned in the first three months of school that the most popular kids aren't the "real" friends. They want the friends that will make them look good, and they will do and say anything to have things their way. I love to have fun and do things! I am an easy going person, I can do pretty much everything that anyone else can do, so I can't fit into size 4 clothes. Big deal! I am the same as everyone else if you would give me a chance! But if being like everyone else means excluding certain people because they don't fit the size or look that you want then count me out! |
