High School
My high school life was good excluding the bullying. People started to make fun of my mouth. I still got good and close classmates but I started to get sad about getting laughed at. I got really worried when some of my classmates stared at my mouth and laughed at me. They even talked about me behind my back. I was still an achiever and in the top ten every year. I was the top 1 in the class in 1st year and top 2 in 2nd till 4th year (always in the 1st section). I couldn't get to the top 1 cos my classmate was so smart. I didn't bother me though so long as I got good grades. I aimed that cos I wanted my parents to be proud of me. I was a good and obedient student. I only joined 3 extracurricular activities in 4 years, they were in the 4th year. I joined PMO (Philippine Mathematical Olympiad), another Math contest and a Values contest (I forgot the exact name). They were all group contests. They were all held in different schools. Joining extracurricular activities was never my thing. I was afraid of losing any contest. I think I only joined them cos it was in groups. It wasn't that nerve-wracking! I was a studious student. I always aimed to get the highest score in every quiz. 😅 I loved sitting in the first row. English and Math were the subjects I really liked. I studied hard to prove to the students who liked making fun of me that they couldn't belittle. I am ugly but I got good grades and my parents were proud of me.
It's in high school that I started writing. It's in high school that I found my love for learning languages. It's in high school that I learned to like gardening and weeding. And sadly, it's in high school that people made fun of my physical appearance. It's in high school that I got so conscious with what I looked. It's in high school that I became a sad person, overthinker and introverted.
