i was in the cafe 2day...& a few dudes were getting on this one dude about his clothes...& at 1ST i thought they were his friends, just playin' around & whatnot....but the way the dude was responding (anger & seriousness in his tone), i quickly figured otherwise......& one of the guys in particular just would NOT leave this dude aLONE about his CLOTHES...i was like wtf?! how old r we again?!
i eventually concluded that they might in fact be in high school & just visiting our university 4 the day...'cause i don't think i've ever seen that since i've been here!! except between friends, ya know? but anyway, i had a flashback to elementary/middle/high school, when peepz were bold as ish about confronting people about ANY flaw of theirs......most people in college might still care about how u look or act, but most of us don't say it to your face...we might mention it to our friends...but that's about it.....but be4 college, people did not CARE...
& i've definitely seen where particularly elementary & middle schoolers will find ANYthing wrong with ANYone....doesn't matter HOW "normal" you are or appear to most....they will find SOMEthing, lol
so my question is...what were some things you got picked on about (either by friends or just peers) in elementary, middle, and/or high school?? either something physical, something in your personality, or in your attitude...
& what are some things you never had 2 experience being picked on about...but saw others get picked on for?
kids are cruel...ain't they?
I was teased MERCILESSLY in elementary and junior high, for being skinny and having **** hair & not wearing brands all the time. I was the tall, SUPERLANKY lightskin girl wit NOOOOO **** whatsoever. n i had a superthick head of long natural kinkycurly hair, but girls would crack on me cuz i'd always wear afro puffs or braids and they'd have shirley temple curls and wraps and "Sock Buns(yall remeber them).Grown people always liked it, but kids would be like "ugh, yo hair so **** y don't u get yo mama to press it or perm it or sumthin!" n the girls who ain't like me wud be like "that nappyhead bi+ch!" n when i finally broke my mama down to relaxin it, girls wud STILL crack cuz they all had 70$ weaves and i couldn't afford them Genie ponytails and sculptures n stuff. N dudes would call me "white girl" cuz i had hips but nooo ****(this was during the time when all them "thick girl" songs were coming out).
ah well, time solves everything.
....n i LOVE my **** hair!
Well the last time I was picked on about anything was grammar school. I have always been a year younger than everyone in my grade, and I was also shorter. And to make things worse, Im naturally petite. SOOOOO...
People always called me "Shrimp", that **** me off, and I would often becom hostile.
After that, I became one of the people who tormented others, unfortunately :???: Everyone then started callin me "Brett the Brat," b/c I was so mean... I gues I refused to be the "****" again...HAHA
Then from 8th grade on up, I just thought I was too grown for all those childish activities. I mean I might call a girl bustdown, BUT that's about it.
i came into A&T in August of 2002 being me... i'ma leave this school being me... i can care less of what people think of my dress. b/c i'm gonna be me no matter what i got on... :arrow:
I aint really got picked on in awhile except for being too quiet...people assume I think I'm too good to hang wit them or somethin but really, I just dont talk nonstop all tha damn time. Oh yeah and I used to get picked on in middle school for how I looked (my skin tone and glasses, being skinny) but now that I look different, I don't really have that problem much anymore. I swear, I should use that Mike Jones line "Back then didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me" lol ok Im done...I aint really conceited but dammit I don't care no more...i'ma be me no matter what anyone says now

I got teased when I was younger.... I have a scar on my upper lip (dont know how many of yall saw that in my pics but anyway)..... the scar came from when I was little.. my doctor prescribed something that burned me and I have the scar.... I grew into it... doesnt bother me anymore... but people usta say that I had a mustache... then after they found out it was a scar they usta be like...ohh...sorry.... Dah well
....n i LOVE my **** hair!
