Top Ten Things People Should Stop Doing in School
I get bullied a lot, and I always tell a teacher. It just gets worse, though. The bullies call me a tattletale, but it's not tattling (probably not the right word, but I couldn't care less) if it's bullying, right?
Also, one thing I don't get -
Scenario One:
Kid: Mom, I'm getting bullied at school!
Mom: Is it a girl or a boy?
Kid: (same gender as them)
Mom: Don't worry, sweetie. I'll call the principal.
Scenario Two:
Kid: Mom, I'm getting bullied at school!
Mom: Is it a boy or a girl?
Kid: (same gender as them)
Mom: WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU HAD A BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND?
Four kids in my school were kicked out in one day because of this. ONE DAY. I even caught people doing acid outside the school gates.
Two of them were smoking cocaine. One of them was a bully, and he walked into class baked. I didn't like him anyway. He should've known better.
I wonder if the kids got dropped on their heads when they were little. Probably.
In my high school, kids smoked in the bathrooms, and the teachers locked them all up because of it.
I'm a girl, and people who are obsessed with butts over personality deserve to die.
Some kids die when they get into fights or suffer serious injuries, and that's a serious problem. I'm not kidding.
Someone needs to tell people not to push others into lockers and then lock them!
And that's why my fifth-grade year was terrible.
It's disgusting! Whenever I look under almost any table in my school, there's a lot of gum. It's as if people are too lazy to throw it in the trash.
Swastika drawings, bad words, and certain body parts are drawn on every desk. There is always century-old gum too.
This happened at my second school. There were also swastikas scratched into my desk in one of my classes.
I have to deal with this way too often. It probably sounds childish to say this, but I think it's unfair when you've been waiting in line longer than they have. They can wait.
If they want to talk to each other, they don't have to do it in line. They can do it at the lunch table.
This wasn't a lunch line, but we were trying to get something. So basically, what happened was this:
A lesbian kid was standing in line, and a group of bullies came up and started punching and shoving the kid.
Bully: Get to the back of the line, Jellybean.
Bully #2: [snickers] Jellybean!
They were so mean! There was nothing I could do.
Whenever someone borrows my pen, I never get it back! It's here one second, and now it's over there covered in drool!
I never let people borrow my stuff anyway unless they are right next to me so I can keep an eye on them.
Somebody borrowed one of my pencils, and another kid broke it! People these days... *sigh*
Um, why would someone lose their virginity in a school bathroom?
So many girls in my school lost their virginity.
There's a reason why there's an age of consent.
If bothering other students was against the rules at my middle school, I would be the only student left, because all of my peers are horrible people.
I guess this is the reason why I'm somewhat hated in class. But others are a whole lot worse.
Sometimes you don't know if you are bothering someone, but you should stop if they say you are.
Someone copied my work in first grade. Then, a kid with anger issues (who I wanted to get revenge on for months after something stupid happened) copied one of my friend's math work and claimed he didn't.
That happens all the time. If someone is desperate, I'll give them the answers to homework but not to tests.
I hate cheaters. That's why I never help anyone at school when they need help with homework.
The Newcomers
I never usually say those kinds of words.
I did this a lot in 7th grade during math class.
It's fine knowing about drama, but it's definitely not good when you're involved in it.
Other chicks at my school start drama all the time.
After dating this guy from my batch, I suddenly became the target of gossip. It got to the point where his ex-girlfriend called me while she thought I was busy, calling me a slut who stole him away from her. (No, their relationship was already on the rocks long before I even knew him.) That's when I lost my temper and showed all my cards.
It's been a year, and even now they're trying to suck up to me after that incident. Not sure if that even works anymore.
Friend who gossips all the time: Hey, did you know that this guy was crying over not keeping up with someone?
Me: And hey, did you know we're not friends anymore?
This is such a huge problem at my school. Please take no offense in how I'm going to say this! There are multiple people at my school who are white but call themselves and others Black, and I am so sick of it! They also make so many racist, stereotypical comments, like how Asians are smarter and so on.
I hate racism in school and in society. I don't understand why everyone can't treat each other as equals without all these names and stereotypes!
That angry kid I talked about once called one of my close friends the n-word (my friend is Black). Then my friend threatened to kill him.
Plus, the angry kid said my friend takes showers in mud, which is super racist. The substitute teacher said it wasn't racist, but it clearly WAS.
There is a boy and a girl dating at my school, and people make inappropriate jokes about them all the time.
I once heard a boy tell the guy in the relationship, "I bet BLANK has lice because she slept with you."
I wasn't very lucky this year with my locker. I ended up with a bottom locker in the most crowded hallway on the upper level of the school. The kid with the locker above me is much shorter, so he's trying to reach his stuff while people are on the floor gathering theirs.
I have to make sure I can actually get down to my locker, not hit someone with it, get my stuff, and escape the herd. Luckily, if I leave class right on time, I can leave just as the crowd starts gathering.
I have my locker in between two people: my friend and an annoying girl. Every day, the annoying girl and her friends stand in front of my locker, gossiping, and I can't get into my locker.
They also don't move.
I hate it. My class is so immature. One time, we played a "Beezer Weezer" game (it's like trivia but a review of movies we watch in music class), and the whole class got into a fight over an answer, which was correct. They thought the prince set a tar trap on the palace steps in Into the Woods.
I tried to settle the argument by giving the team the points, but they all screamed at me. I hate my class sometimes.
Last year, my brother said one of his friends drew a penis in their textbook before returning it to the school library.
Some kid (who I'm sort of friends with) almost drew a whole penis on his paper in art class.
Exactly! Once, I found a... private part of a guy drawn in my textbook. Just stop!
