   Wednesday, August 6,
First day of 6th grade but also the first day of a new chapter in my life in middle school. At first I was in a private school, now I'm in public.

Later in the school year

   Since I don't act like everyone else most of the kids picked on me. I didn't know how to protect myself from the ignorance so, I just took it. Some days were better than others but, some were just the worse. Some of the worse days my mother questioned why my eyes were so red and why was my clothes were so stretched out. I never told the truth. I wish I had the guts to tell her what was happening to me maybe if I had told her I might be back in private schools. I wouldn't mind going back but my parents started to have finance issues and I didn't want to put more pressure and stress on my parents so, I let the kids do whatever to me. They would throw food all in my hair and spit on me but I never knew how to handle it. The teachers wouldn't even help me they'll just tell the students to "stop" or to "leave me alone". I went to the principal about who was messing with me all he said was "Tell them to stop messing with you". After I heard those words I tried standing up for myself but, I only made things worse.
