I did too, especially during the 8th and 9th grade. All my other friend goes to other school. I made a friend too, but we don’t talks much because we don’t have much in common. I only know that we are friend. It’s meaningless anyway. The teacher giving out tons of homework and telling me to participate in class. Even though I’m born in U.S.A I still cannot pronounce some word right. I could hear the girl behind me laughing about it. I know they are not bad people. I don’t hold grudge. Maybe it’s because I cannot speak out. I can’t tells whether that’s a good thing or not. I just don’t want to be…insulted…or maybe its because I’m too sensitive? Uh,…sensitive me, huh? This word always make me sarcastic. I skip on big day. I’m not a smart student either. (As you may notice grammar error here.) I struggled through the project, and homework. It’s not that I don’t listen to the teacher. I take notes. Very good one in fact. But I just don’t get it. Maybe I don’t get life itself. Ah, the silent drama queen here, I admitted. But it’s somehow the truth – too true.

This year, I makes friend. I present. Actually, I feel more comfortable in front of the class the longer I am there. I imagined everyone as carrot and lettuce – as my Chinese teacher tell me to. I even gave a guy who make fun of me a dead-glare in front of everybody else! They laugh of course. But I relaxed, I’m getting a bit too comfortable, then, I don’t want to be too comfortable either. So far this year, everything is going smoothly. I makes lots of new friend. My next silent goal is to be-friend with guy. And let’s just hope I don’t go all…boy on them, lol

I did this too. Sixth grade through first semester sophomore year. And I only stopped because I got called into court, the first date being two days after my fifteenth birthday. I almost went to juvie, and was in court for just over a year before my case was dismissed. But I start ditching and being late again, the judge even said if I just start failing too many of my classes, I’ll get called in again. So now I’m forty credits behind my class and I go to an alternative school for credit recovery with gang members and druggies. I haven’t seen my friends since last semester because kids at my school aren’t allowed on the other high school campus.
But I go to school now.
