Odd Girl Out by Rachel Simmons

bulling and ganging up on a person are both done frequently on our modern day society. i is a great problem many schools are facing daily. students insult each other and commonly gang up and pick on a few victims. many of the insults bully victims experience are based on thier race, religion, apperince, character and advances in education (where "nerd" came from). the insults and harm the victim experiences (joke or not) can cause some negitive effects such as depresion, anger, and if worst comes to worse, the victim could experience the temptation of commiting suicide. i confess i have bullied others in the past.i wanted to join the laughter so i would tag along, though when it went beond limits i would try to chill it down. i once bullied a student because of the way the teacher adored him and ignored us, but eventually i changed and became friends with him. however, when i started going to private schools i became the victim instead of being the bully. i supose i was just not thier style. they insulted me because i was "not up to date", what a rediculos reason. i spoke about a clip on YouTube which was established a few mounths age and there they laughted at me. my first private middle school closed so i had to go to a new one where the students were no better if not worse. i was excluded from thier games because i was not the best and my familiy's race. they thought of me as a caword because i refused to inapropriatly touch the girls. i never bothered to inform the teachers about what was going on because i was in risk of being in thier classes for the next five years and it would worsen the situation. they thought of me as a wierd person because i am against abortion which today is the 21st century houlocaust. but today at ASTI it is totaly different. here everyone treats everyone with respect and equality. we are like one big family.i can be the person who i am and not have to worry about what others think of me. unfortunatly, not every school is like ASTI. many need to be reformed and improved. there are schools these days that have students bringing guns to class and will to rape others. we need to end the caos and start improving. we need to spread the characterists of ASTI to other schools so that they may too get out of the bully black hole.
