Before I could continue my diary, let me tell you something about Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, me.

Let me tell you something about myself first. So, I was a nerd kid back then. And my dad works on a Viking Shop that sells all the antique Viking stuffs. Like war hammers or swords. He was so obsessed with that stuffs, but the good part of that is he is actually getting lots of money enough for my school fees. He wasn't a nerd like me, he was a fighter and a hardworking man. He always looked after me, I was his only son after all.

When I was a kid, I used to believe in Star Wars. Yes, I thought they were all real. The light sabers, Luke Skywalker, Obi-wan, or even Darth Vader. So, I bought all kinds of their costumes. My dad never thinks I'm weird. He is even proud of me. I was so obsessed with Sci-fi and stuffs like that. I was in grade school when I was doing that kinds of things. I liked every movies with spaceships, laser guns with amazing heroes and cruel villains. Well, to be honest right now, I still do believe in them. But in a different way. Because something really terrible happened to me and I will not forget that moment.

I was in sixth grade, I was bullied by lots of students. Okay, maybe almost all of them. The basketball team, the sassy girls, even the other nerds tried to bully me. I didn't have lots of friends back then. I used to go alone in the canteen by myself or even walk home. These things made me so angry that I wanted to get my revenge, then so I did. But I didn't know that I was making the most terrible decision of my life.

When our school finally have the halloween party, I've decided to wear Luke Skywalker's costume. And brought a light saber. I now wanted to plot my revenge for all of them. I've always thought that light sabers would save me, but no. They were actually a reason why I felt so afraid and defeated.

I was in the party, and there was this guy who was wearing a Darth Vader suit. His name is Sid, he was the biggest bully in the school. That made me believe more that Star Wars is real, because this is the battle of the good and evil. So I took the light saber and enlighten it. I hit Sid's back, and I thought it would hurt him. Then he turned around, actually, all of them turned around. I didn't hit him hard, I thought I was strong. Strong enough to beat all of the bullies. Sid punched me in the face, which hit me very hard. But the pain I felt in that moment was the embarrassment, and I felt ashamed for myself. Because I couldn't stand up strong. The other students threw food at me, and hit me with water balloons. I cried, but luckily the teacher came to help me. But I was suspended, so as Sid.

I've always thought that I'm the hero, but I wasn't. I was the evil guy after all, I was Darth Vader. I only focused my revenge on everyone, I didn't think of my outcomes, and I didn't even care to people. Although the bullies were more of an evil, but if I take another look at myself in the mirror. I'm just a kid who wanted revenge and followed the path of my anger.

So, dad have decided to take me to other school after I graduated. So, I went to Bollywood High. It was one of the most expensive school. But dad told me that I'll do just fine. Well, he was right. I did have lots of friends, but still there are lots of bullies. But it was different now. I focused more on my studies. I became more quiet than before, and very shy. But, there's also this girl that become my inspiration. Astrid Hofferson, one of the most popular girl in school. But she was a mean girl, still that doesn't change anything. I had a crush on her ever since. I've always wanted to talk to her, but I felt like it was impossible. So, I've decided to just have a crush on her for 4 years, until now. I've met lots of friends since now I'm a senior student.

First, I've met these two girls at the party. Merida DunBroch, and Rapunzel Corona. They were the type of girls that never had been in the bigger groups. They were bullied as well. Then, we became good friends. Merida is this type of girl who doesn't care if someone bullies her. She's also a nerd like me, but doesn't believe in Star Wars. and Rapunzel is the girl who didn't like to join the pretty girls in the group, she's sometimes clumsy and doesn't focus much on things. Then, there's this guy named Jack Frost. I knew he hated me from the very beginning.

He doesn't care if he hit me or something like that. We never talk before. But after Mr. Claus actually made me and him in one group, with Merida and Rapunzel, everything changed. We became friends, even though is very much unbelievable. He thought me how to be a cool guy and how to be confident about myself. I was more popular now and our group has been on top three. We became number one, and because of that, some people admired me. The bullies started to like me. I am so thankful that these guys have been part of my life.

Now, they are the reason why Astrid Hofferson became my girlfriend. And why I am the King of all Nerds in the school. I am one of the top. They didn't just say that I was the nerd of all, I was the Coolest Nerd in the school. But I am still that Hiccup you still know.

My life before has been bad, but now, it's different.
