All my life I have seen bullying happen around me, as I am sure everyone has. I have been the bully but also the bullied. I didn't have it as bad as some kids but bullying non the less still hurts in any type and form. I used to watch others get bullied never say anything and sometimes agree as long as it wasn't me being bullied. I was also the girl who had funny teeth growing up. In school I sometimes didn't hang out with the best crowd, I got into bad things. I always thought I would like to go back to high school and do over again. Maybe be more social, try a sport, maybe i'd have more friends and have different experiences. In high school everyone tries their best to fit in and it doesn't matter what you do to fit in. I was one of those people. Yes, I was nice but I just would always go with a crowd even if it meant hurting someone else. Last year is when I really changed. I started going to the different school in the same town. I was away from my friends and put with a new group. I found myself focusing more on graduating instead of caring what people thought. Pals, my school, is where I learnt how to be the person I wanted to be. Last year I had a rude awakening. The most scariest thing you can ever hear is someone in your family talking about suicide. They said they wanted to kill themselves because of bullies. I cried for days. Even had nightmares of them going through with it. I don't ever want them to feel this way.. ever. So here I am, trying to make a difference, trying to spread the word and help stop bullying. I don't want people to feel bad about themselves anymore. Don't ever think of suicide because there is always a better answer. And for the bullied, be strong your day will come when you don't have to live in fear of being you. Everyone who reads this, remember you're beautiful, no matter what anyone tells you.
