Dear God,

I’m not even sure if I believe in you but I’m so scared and I have to talk to someone who will just listen and not try to tell me it will all be alright, which is why I can’t talk to my counselor. I’m starting a new school in three days time and I’m so, so terrified because I know that I won’t fit in and will be teased and tormented like I was in my last school and I can’t even try to pretend that it will all be better because I’m certain that it won’t be. I’ve decided that if-when-this doesn’t work out I’ll just end it, because I will never fit in anywhere, I’m too horrible and wierd and freakish and stupid. Just try and make it better, if you can.

Amen.

Mary, London/UK

    Mary,

    I went to high school with a lot of people. I still know exactly one person from then. So why should we care so much what they think. I know exactly what you mean, but having gone through it myself, why do we imagine the worst and give it so much power over us.

    You are uniquely you. You can technically be identified as YOU, by your eyes, your fingerprint, your DNA. There is no one like you in the whole world. Whatever you think is quirky about you, is actually something special. Your personality, your interests, where you live all give you unique opportunities and insights that NO ONE else has or can do, like you can. You are a piece to this great big puzzle. Don’t go missing. Just spend some time looking for where you fit best.

    Ask God and he will show you. He says he knitted you together in your Mother’s womb. He says he has a plan to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you hope and a future. He says that he knows the number of hairs on your head! Not even my Mom know’s that!

    Life is a journey and it does take time, but God says he will show you the way. Ask Him and He will deliver.

    Love,

    Jack

    Hi Mary,

    I know how you feel.

    I am an absolute nut-job. I’m overweight. I’m too tall for my age. I’m bossy or I’m completely shy. I’m hard to get along with. On top of that, I’m an only child, so I huff when I don’t get my own way. So I think I qualify for the freakshow parade.

    I went to an all-girls high school for almost a year. It was the worst almost-a-year of my life. I’d come home crying every day. I hated everyone and everything. I would have daily fights with everyone in my school grade. I would have screaming matches in the playground during breaks. It was horrible. I was the complete outcast. Teasted, tormented and tortured. I could never do what my parents and school counsellor told me: “Just igore them”. I simply couldn’t do it. I physically couldn’t (and still can’t) make myself not get upset at the comments they’d make. So believe me, I know how you feel.

    You know what I did on my first day at my new school?

    I cried in the girls’ bathrooms for an hour.

    But then, once I’d calmed down, I marched right back out and into my new class. I looked for the loneliest kid, male or female, sat down and said hi. We spent the rest of the hour-long lesson talking and getting to know each other.

    I finished high school four years ago and I still talk to that lonely kid. She’s now my closest friend. We delight in the fact that we’re both outcasts. We get along better because of it.

    So when you start at your new school, take a deep breath. Get your bearings. You’re the new kid - you have the edge, the mistique. You can say and be whatever you want. Hell, you could make up a story that you were expelled from your last school for making out with your famous rock-star boyfriend on the front lawn one too many times (I wouldn’t, though). Look for the kid everyone else ignores - who knows? They might become your best friend. There’s always one, don’t worry. And if you don’t get along, hey, at least you tried! Which makes you confident. Which makes you awesome. If you have the guts to go up to a complete stranger and say hi, you instantly gain a billion awesome-points.

    If the people at this new school are going to judge you and tease you without even saying hi or learning your name, f*ck ‘em. They’re not worth it. You’re better than they are. You are more mature, more secure in your faith and a all-round great gal.

    I know this all sounds so trite and easy but please believe me when I say I know how you feel and that you aren’t alone.

    …And I’m sure God thinks you’re awesome, too (I had to work God in there somewhere, didn’t I?)

  3. its me...again...i dont go away...sorry Says:

    Hello. Why let them win? That is what you would be doing by “ending it”. I was also a outcast but for different reasons than yours. I actually got pregnant at the age of 15,I dont recommend doing that,but I went to a very snobbish highschool in a great part of town and things like that just didnt happen. Even though I was a good student I was made fun of,laughed at and I cant forget the names,I still dont know what some of them mean!!!! I was transferred to another school for troubled teens and I was not troubled I was pregnant. So I lost all or any of my “friends” and shocked a whole community but oh well. I lived and have become a pretty ok person and a mom. So please listen to me and everyone else that is responding to your shout for help hang in there and put your head up. I love you and so do so many other people,some you see and some you will just feel are right there with you.

    We are who we are….not one of us is perfect, nor were we made to be. And define normal? You can’t define normal, nor can we define “weird” or “different” cause no one person is made alike, so we are all “different” and we are all “weird” in one way or another.

    We will go through hard times and we will go through easy times. But you can’t have one without the other. Life is a battle, but it is also an adventure. School is merely a small part of the adventure of life, and once you’re out of there hardly any of it matters! You just have to get through it and then you are free to be completly your own person, as school shells us to a certain extent, stopping us from being who we really truly are.

    I have being out of school a fair few years now, and my best of friends are the ones I have met since I’ve left school, I talk to hardly anyone from school. Yes we had a friendship, but alot of them appear to have only being the friendships that get you by your school years and then the day after you finish school, everyone walks their own seperate ways and you mostly don’t see those people again, and if you do it’s normally just a smile from afar like you are strangers just being polite.

    I realise the teasing and taunting doesn’t make it easy for you to think things will get better, but Mary dear things will infact improve, it just takes time, so to say “i’ll just end it” is simply not the way to go about it, instead imagine a bigger picture, beyond school…think of the things you can do and achieve. Do not even consider the people that are making your life hell like, look beyond that, picture faces of people that you will meet in the future and enjoy amazing times with.

    You are only young, and for you to say “I’ll just end it.” is a thought you need to rid from your head. Picture a bigger picture. Focus on the good things…even if they are the tinyest of tiny things, focus on them and build from there. Make an extra effort to make friends at your new school(I have being the “new girl” a few times for various reasons,and I know it’s scary)but as others have said, find the quiet one sitting alone and befriend them as they may be feeling the same as you are and just go from there.

    No one is normal. No one is perfect. Be happy in the skin you’re in. You are you. And a huge future lies ahead.

    i am sorry you feel this way about yourself. i am sure you are a beautiful person with a lot to offer to this world.
    the people who really change the world are the ones who are the freaks.
    so i will be watching and waiting to see how you change the world.

  6. mariana Says:

    hey beautiful! Just remember that WIERD FREAKISH NERDDY people are the ones that really rule the world! common! cute girls will get fat and ugly any way, hahaha, kidding. Seriously, being a bit of a freak is a great asset, I know you are still in high school and might think that all I say is bullshit. Turth is you’ll grow up to be one of the most intresting people of your class, believe me. All freaks become artists, rockstars, poets, scientists, computer proggramers and actually rule the world. Wait a bit and you’ll see who gets the money and the guys. Being popular is a stupid concept, we are all beautiful and we are all connected. Keep it up and god bless you!

  7. Tony Says:

    Hi, Mary:

    We’re all freaks and none of us really fit in. We just pretend we do and hope that no one notices. And even though we long to belong…to a group, a church, a clique, ect. We already do fit in… we all fit in to the group that is scared, uncomfortable, and ockward.

    And if the truth be known there are more of us than the other. Just a side note: you can make believe your way to reality, because what you most think about you become. So start thinking defferent and things will seem defferent.

  8. Margaret Says:

    Hi Mary,
    Highschool is only a few years of your life, and life isn’t at all like highschool. Once you leave school you can meet so many different people, and go so many different places, and you’ll see that everyone is different and scared about trying to be liked and fit in.
    So just ride it out. Concentrate on your studies. There are going to be lonely kids at your new school that you could try being friends with.

    heyy im rhiannon
    im 14 and i know just how u feel i was teased horribly at my old school and had to move schools
    i was terrified of what they’d think
    i spent my first day on the seats alone and didnt fit in for a long time
    eventually ive found friends who love me lots but i still worry about what people think

    but u have to keep it in because u need to act confident and wear a smile and obviously ur not a loser because u had the courage and confidence to write this.

    all the bullies out their r insecure and they feel as though they dont fit in either thats why they bully to keep themselves confident and to lower urs so only think of the compliments people have given u and not the rude remarks or negetive ones.

    u seem like a beautiful girl and i hope all goes well. Don’t turn ur back on the world because u r NOT alone and there ARE others who feel the same way!!

    Soo remember

    The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.

    A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don’t like you.

    You are special and unique.

    rhiannon xoxo

    ill be praying for u!!!

  12. Mike Says:

    Hello Mary -

    Please believe me when I say that I know how you feel. First of all let me say that I’m of asian decent. When I attended high school, I was the only asian there. I was always picked on and beatened because of who I was; certain teachers were outright rude towards me because of my ethnicity. But I’ve always believed that God had a purpose for me and that all of the things I was going through was a test. A test to put myself above all the stupidy and ingorance that I encountered. With God’s guidance I finished school and attended college and made many friends. Yes, you will encounter many who are ignorant of what they do or say; but they are few compare to the many out there who have gone through or presently dealing with what you are going through. Believe in yourself and in God. I am now 40 years old now and have a wonderful family who loves me. In addition, I’ve made many friends through college and in my work place that has made me a better person.

    So remember this, you are a unique individual who has much to give. Don’t let those who hurt you get the better of you. They have what my parents use to say “No class!”

    I pray for you that God will always protect you and guide you. May you always be who you are and never change for anyone.

    Will always keep you in my heart, prayers, and mind.

    God Bless

    Mike

  13. Lauren Says:

    Oh, Mary,

    Your posting just breaks my heart. I’m many years older than you are, but I remember what it was to be your age and be so very, very sure that whatever was happening was going to be true forever. It won’t be, but you probably don’t know that yet.

    Mary, nothing that happens to you today, tomorrow, next week, next month or next year is going to last forever. If this school doesn’t work out exactly the way you want, that’s okay. See what you can find that seems good, and hang onto it. If something bad happens, see if you think it has anything to teach you. If so, try to learn the lesson - if not, let it pass. If nothing else, your experiences now are teaching you how to be strong, how to learn, and how to look forward beyond today to a better future tomorrow.

    One of the hardest things about being your age is that you don’t have a lot of control about your day-to-day life. One of the loveliest things about getting older is that you get to make all kinds of decisions for yourself that you can’t make now. The day will come when you can decide where to live, what to do, who to have as a friend, and how you’re going to live. You’re clearly a very intelligent girl - when the time comes, you’re going to have a wonderful life! Just be patient - great things are coming.

    Much love,

    Lauren

    hey, i know how that feels, to be uncomfortable in school. but stay cool, and believe in yourself. God made you wonderfully, lovingly, and He also places us in schools and communities for His plans. chin up and trust that everything will work out great, He’s got your back.

  15. Veritas Says:

    Mary,
    Sweetheart, I know how you feel. I’m 16 years old, and I attended a private christian school from 5th grade to 8th. There were only 40 people in the ENTIRE school. (grades 1-12) I started high school not knowing anyone. Everyone had their own group of friends, and I only had myself. I was teased, and made fun of by people that didn’t even know me! You’re going to be okay sweetie, I promise. Things may seem tough, but trust me as you make friends (an believe me you will) it will get easier. Don’t EVER give up. So what your “freaky?” That makes you unique, and if people don’t know how to accept it, then well, sucks for them, because they just lost a friend that could have made them a better person. Everything will be fine.
    I love you xoxoxox.

    I am adult and I am male. But I understand being the odd person. I am still the odd person. Sometimes it is hard, but I have everything that I need. As long as there is one human out there who will give you a smile and be nice, the world is worth living in. If nobody is nice where you are now, then probably you should just find a new place to live and go there when you can. In the mean time, you might want to look into meditating, yoga, or just go to the doctor and get anxiety pills. There is nothing wrong with getting help. Just stay away from illegal drugs because that would cause you to hang out with people worse off than you and get you in trouble.

  17. Jelena Says:

    Hello there. I know how you feel, believe me. I beg you to stop with those negative thoughts. You’re letting your fear beat you. You have to fight it. Be who you are and accept it, there’s no need to feel bad about yourself. I always had a feeling that I won’t fit anywhere. I am still in high school and I still don’t think I’ve fit in perfectly. I am a little weird, too… But, when I think about it, you have to find happiness in your life. I bet you can list a dozen of things you have and other people don’t, something you’re good at and others are not. Just think hard and you’ll get the answer. Even if the answer looks stupid, accept it because it is something that makes you YOU. It makes you unique. And we cannot all be popular and cool and accepted. The fact that you don’t fit in doesn’t mean you’re ugly, stupid or anything like that. Just be who you are, don’t pretend to be like the others if that’s not how you feel and if it doesn’t make you feel comfortable, because their goals in life will never be the same as yours, remember that. Even if you don’t always seem to be able to socialize with others, it is OK. There are other things you can enjoy.
    It all seems so easy, but in order to succeed you have to start thinking differently right now. Read some book, that always helps me. And stop thinking you’re a freak, because how you think determines how you feel, it is all in your head and you have to deal with it, there’s no other way… It is not going to be easy, I know. Stop thinking about other people. If you try to live your life in a way that others can like you, you’re never going to be happy, cause you can never be loved by everyone. You need to love yourself and once you start living in peace with your own head it will all work out. This won’t get better over night, but you need to be persistent. Good luck and don’t worry be happy. Oh and if this doesn’t work out, maybe you should see a therapist, he will help you with the depression… :))))))

  18. Animal Lover Says:

    Mary,

    There is nothing wrong with not fitting in, the only problem is that you let it bug you which shows, and these people that hurt you can sense that from far away. These types of peopel thrive on fear. The key is to accept that you are who you are. If you keep believing what they say about you, things won’t change. However, you have the power to change that by accepting that you are not one of them, you don’t want to be one of them and you don’t care about them. Think about this, do you think your tormentors are good people? I doubt it, would you like to be like them? I doubt it… although you may have todl yourself that that’s the right bay to be, it’s not. There is no riht way, but being cruel is definitely not a good way to be regardles of what social group we are talking about. Look, I’m not sure how old you are, but things really will get better the second you REALIZE this and work on your self confidence.

    I highly recommend reading some basic Sociology, it will give you a VERY different perspective of what’s going on, and how irrelevant these people are… even if they are hurting you for the moment. Everything is relative, I feel your pain though. I’m quite an oddball myself, always was, always will be, and there is nothing wrong with that. Learn to embrace your differences, don’t be as boring and gray as they are just because they want you to comform to their little box of a world.

    Lot’s of Power to you!

    Ps. you will always fit in somewhere… you just have to be yourself and you’ll see where YOU fit best.

  19. elain Says:

    Mary:
    I know I felt like that way when I was younger. I am in my 50’s now and I look back and realize what I should have done more of. We’re all on this earth for a reason, but don’t try to figure out why, just live your life. I remember being happiest when I could be a listener to someone who was having trouble. If you start being a listener and mentor to someone else, you will feel so much better and richer for it. I used to be the one that every told their troubles to. My teachers would ask me to take students into the hallway, sit and talk to them. How easy is that? I didn’t realize until much later that I actually helped someone at school to keep from ending their life just because I talked to her. She had broken up with her boyfriend, had a mean stepdad, was not popular at school, sort of geeky at the time, but I used to talked to her because I thought she was interesting. I was always curious about other kids home lives and how things were at home. Shocking to find out how many people have insecurity feelings or feelings of not fitting in. So, what I’m trying to say is that if you make it a point to talk to more kids your age, you will realize that you are normal. It’s just that kids your age are putting up a front. They try to act tough. Try being a friend to someone who seems unhappy. It will, in turn, make you happier. Keep yourself busy by reading, keeping up on current events so that you are interested and interesting. Remember to pray to God when you are feeling down. Remember, it is up to you to make yourself happy. Look around you and think how great it is to be able to laugh at a sitcom, eat an apple, wear lipstick, go shopping, read a good book, talk on the phone, eat ice cream, go jogging, change your hairdo, etc. You know, just dumb stuff that can lift your spirits. As you get older, it gets even better. I have 3 grandkids now and a wonderful husband. Remember, being depressed and sad can make you sick. Have I helped? Smile at yourself in the mirror. Help someone out today. Take care and God Bless You.

  20. Steve Says:

    Mary from London! STOP! YOU DON’T WANT TO ENTERTAIN THIS NOTION OF ENDING IT. PLEASE TRUST US ON THIS.
    My wife really wants me to bring her back to your big town! And who will show us the sites if you’re not there, hmmm?

    Ever heard of the deaf, blind, mute girl, Helen Keller? Talk about not fitting in. She was totally isolated from everyone. Maybe not a great example of pushing through adversity to success, but a good one still.

    Don’t cheat the rest of the world out of your presence here. Don’t cheat yourself out of your presence here, either. We need people who are different and not just the vacuous, generic nothings that are portrayed to/for us by media, etc., as the quintessential of cool.
    Not true, so not true! The people who really make a mark on the world, and I do mean for the better, are those who stand out as perhaps a bit odd. Sure they are looked at as strange. And I know that being “normal” is a big desire when feeling isolated, lonely and hopeless. Just thought of an Albert Einstein quote, “Great Spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds”.

    The only hopeless state is if we quit and then there is absolutely no opportunity to make things better. The only constant is change. Nothing can stay the same, even if it appears that it does. All systems are in a constant state of change–growing/decaying, etc. this is neither the end nor is it the time to end it.

    I had a friend in high school who did just that. Had been drinking and doing drugs to “escape” from his legal problems and then decided in that weakened state to end it. Shot himself in the head but his aim wasn’t quite right. When they found him the next day he had blanckets wrapped around his head trying to stop the bleeding. You don’t want to realize you’ve made the biggest mistake of your life and then there’s nothing you can do to reverse it. I know he was feeling that very thing as he tried to hold on to the one thing he had in which he could have made a positive difference in his circumstance, if only he had not given it up; his life!

    Please, stay with us. I’ve had these same thoughts many times in my younger days and had countless opportunities to finish it or
    “end it “, as you so eloquently put it. Sitting with a loaded weapon, driving on the edge of cliffs in the mountains all over the U.S., etc., etc., etc. I would never have been able to fix some of those things about me (I’m in my upper 40’s and there still still a lot of things that need fixing about me) that I didn’t like and that others found so easy to berate or hassle me about. Some of the items I don’t care what anybody says, and don’t try to change. Some are worthy of changing and are possible to change.

    We only get one life, so know that this is not the end and its not worth calling it the end. The world is much bigger and the possibilities are nearly infinite. God wants you to find your purpose in this world and it is findable. As someone else put it, you are unique with all your strangeness, weirdness, and goodness, kindness, your perspective is valuable. There is a principle used in business and military strategy–I believe it is a life principle: “Turn your weaknesses into your strengths.” Ever seen the comic actor Marty Feldmon? Such a strange, unusual looking bloke he was, yet very successful and very funny at his craft of making me laugh–Young Frankenstein. If you haven’t seen it, SEE IT!!! Who is really happy with themselves or their circumstances? When you hear these mega-rich, supermodels complaining about their bodies or something, comeon?!?!!! Nothing is perfect in an imperfect world, and some of it is REALLY far from perfect! You have a purpose and you can find it if you NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER GIVE UP! Churchill had something there, Winston, that is.

    Thanks Mary
    Steve

  21. Karven Says:

    Dear Unique,

    Do not be afraid…rather make a point of being free and embracing God as tough as it may seem right now.

    The society we live in create these so called “norms” but will you not prefer to go about life being yourself. All that counts is that you are a respectful person whom respects others. Most times people react in certain ways out of “Fear”…plse remain the true person that you are as you will soon realise that that’s what counts most. In the same way please do not fear having faith in God because life may seem tough at the moment but it’s all just to ensure that you are prepared for the beautiful life ahead. Let God in so that he can guide you through that beautiful journey.

    Here’s to people who are not afraid of who they are…as you most definitely are not.

    Kindest regards,
    Karven

  22. Dale Says:

    I have always been the chameleon and can fit in anywhere. However, being an only child with an only child from an only child and a widow I am often the one who never fits in. I have lived my whole life not fitting in anywhere I am and I know what it feels like. I have no friends but many aquaintances…went to an all girl boarding school for 5 years and an all woman baptist college. I lost my husband after 22 years of marriage 3 years ago and I was only 39 years old with a special needs child. I have dedicated myself to helping others who can’t help themselves whether it’s caring for critical care patients, elderly or children with terminally ill parents. Find a purpose and keep going. Sure you will be lonely but the rewards of a child’s smile or God’s grace to make the slightest difference will keep you coming back for more.

    Take care and know there are others who are lonely just waiting for our wings.

  23. Friend Says:

    Dear Friend, I was sitting here just thinking about you. I just thought - what would God tell this sweet person. This is what I believe he would say to you. My beautiful, beautiful child, I love you more than you can even imagine. I made you in my own image. You are so beautiful. Don’t give up, belive in yourself. Love yourself and take care of yourself. This world is cruel and hard sometimes but don’t give up. Focus on the good you can do. “Sorrow my endureth for the night, but joy commenth in the morning. I have gone away to prepare a place for you. Keep the faith and believe in me. I am true love.

    God is there even though we can’t see him, we can feel him. Sweet heart, pour your heart out to God. People will always let you down. Don’t look to people for acceptance to feel better. Look only to God. He is the light. He is the way. Just ask him to come into your heart and cry to him. When you are lonely, write letters to him. List the problems one by one. Then, go back after you finish the letter and answer the problems you have written as your best friend would. Or, like the above example, write as you believe that God would write. This always helps me. I feel like a ton of bricks have been lifted off me when I pour my heart out to God.

  24. Miss Bowen Says:

    When I read your post I felt sad and angry. Sad that you feel so low, and angry that society allows people to get away with emotionally torturing others. The truth is there is nothing wrong with you. However the previous bullies have succeeded in installing negative beliefs inside of you.
    I do not believe that most bullies are being abused themselves or have been bullied and so on. It is just excuses. Some people are just plain nasty. I had a very abusive childhood, and I have never been a bully and still managed to go to college and uni. Bullies are just jealous wicked people. They see a nice person like you with potential and rather than rising up to your level, they try to drag you down to theirs.
    I was bullied in years 7 & 8 at secondary school just because I made friends with other people and my so called primary school friends claimed I was a traitor and did not care about them anymore. Just from something so trivial I nearly ended up leaving school. It was only after the bullying stopped that I realised these people were not good friends even before.
    I have always been quite academic and they would make comments such as “Oh another A grade! You are so perfect you make me sick!” etc. All true friends delight when you have success they should not degrade you.
    The main issue for you now is gaining your confidence back. This is what is so upsetting about all types of abuse. They pick on you, rob you of your self-worth and then YOU are the one who has to pick up all the pieces. As of you did not have enough work already! But you can do it. Be ready for any trick they try to play. For instance, at school I decided to keep away from my bullies and one of them actually reported me to a teacher for not speaking to her anymore and I was told that I would have to speak to her or be moved class, even after all they had done to me. Apparently, the teacher said that I was ‘continuing the conflict’ because I refused to associate myself with her anymore. I remember the bully’s face; she thought it was so funny that I was now being treated as if I was the bully. Bullies love to make you look like the bad guy.
    Because of what has happened to you, you may give off a negative vibe as you may feel anxious a lot of the time, as your defences will be up. All humans are telepathic to some extent and people will pick up on it. This means potentail bullies will pick up that you have low self esteem and may bully you.
    Please do not be alarmed or upset by this. It is not your fault. You must build up your strength and give off the impression that anyone who messes with you will feel your wrath (not physically though). Keep away from negative people and look for those like yourself. Play the game with sense, as at the end of the day that is what life is. It is a game with reoccuring rules.
    I hate to say it but the bullies you meet at school, will one day be bullies at work. You can never avoid bullies, but you can know how to handle them. Most bullies give up once a person flips and shows them they have had enough. The trick is to show them they can’t break you without losing control and resorting to physical harm. You are learning an important skill that will come in handy for the rest for your life.
    May God bless you and watch over you always xxxx

    I totally understand your pain, I’m now 23 years old but the level of alienation I felt throughout the majority of my 10 years of primary/high scool still haunts me to this day! Since leaving high school I’ve met lots of awesome people and have had some great times but I really can’t think of much that I liked about earlier schooling. I think a lot of the pain I felt through that time fuels my musical projects and makes me really appreciate the creative friends that I have now.

    So yeah, I’m still dealing with shit like that a decade after it happened but its just one part of me and certainly not something worth ending my life over. You can get through it, painful times like actually build you into a ‘richer’ person. Oh and God doesn’t set you up with that sort of shit for no reason, you will eventually see where that painful time fits in the bigger picture of your life - I’m sure you will enrich many people’s lives with a sensitivity that is completely unique to you.

    I’ve been a new girl at so many schools, sometimes i’m an outcast othertimes i’m totally popular but either way whatevr happened i always seemed to end up alone so when my dad said we’re moving it didnt matter to much. Now i’m at a new school, i’ve been there for a year and i absolutely hate it, i get bullied and am a total outcast - even the teachers don’t like my but it doesnt matter so much because i always know god’s with me where-evr i am and what-ever i’m doing….
