"Okay sweetie, this new school is very nice. So please don't destroy it or get expelled this time? You're only 7 and already have been kicked out of two other schools." "Okay Mommy," I said. "I'll try." "Thanks, baby. I love you! Have a good day!" "Love you too Mommy." 

I walked into the school with my long pigtails, gap-toothed grin, blue romper and favourite backpack. It had marine animals on it and was the prettiest bag in the world. I was ready to make an effort at being a good student and staying in school. 

As I walked to class, someone ripped my bag off of my back. "Hey baby, nice backpack! How old are you, two?" I felt myself filling with rage. I turned to see two older kids, a boy and a girl. They looked like 5th graders. "Give back my backpack," I said. "What are you going to do about it? Cry to your Mommy?" They said this in a mocking tone and I felt my anger bubbling over.

I grabbed the strap of my backpack and tugged, but both of them were holding on and pulling the opposite direction. And that's when it happened. My favourite bag broke. And I lost it.

I screamed in anger, and felt pure anger explode put of me. The water fountain broke and one of the bullies was hit in the head with the metal and knocked out cold. The other was sprayed with water and choked. 

The teacher ran up. "What happened??" The female bully that choked on water managed to splutter "She did it. She's only little but she's violent." The teacher looked at me coldly and said "Go to the Principal AT ONCE you little shit." Yes, she actually said that. 

And that's how I got kicked out of my 3rd school on the first day by the time I was 7.
