I do not understand why popularity has to be a thing in school. Being in middle school is nothing but a big mess. I am at the low end of the social pyramid just because I am not stupid like the people that seem to be above me. Popular people at my school happen to be the kids that play sports, do drugs, date other popular people, acting bad in class, and all this other stuff. I have realized that acting bad can get you a little higher in the social pyramid. I personally am not a bad kid I just do bad things. I personally have been written up 7 times and kicked out of classrooms at least 30 times or more and along side of that I have also yelled at teachers many times and decided to throw books and other things at other people. By me doing all of this I could easily be a part of the popular crew but the thing is I dont just do this to do it. I have anger issues which is the start of this really big problem. The thing is people like to do things to me first which results in these things happening to them. I have been bullied ever since pre-k and it has just escalated. Now i am anti social and it is pretty bad dealing with. Plus i dont really trust people anymore after what happened to me last year. I hate how school has made all of these things happen. I always get blamed for someone else I always get into trouble for someone else and it just is not fair. My middle school allows bullying and it is just messed. The amount of times that i cried to my counselor was crazy. She always told me that it was my fault and that I am the person to blame. Next year I wont have to deal with this big mess since I am going to a high school that is all about academics so I am happy. Do you guys have anything to say about this? Have you guys gone through something similar?
