In-School Improvements

[[QVC]-Branmuffin]

*note* Kenoku, this doesn't really apply to you unless you are fed up with the way people at your school treat you. */note*


Now, If you hate the way people act at school, say so. I'm always the freaking outcast individual because I'm fat/"racist"/"stupid"/"hateful"/"mean"/"a jerk"

now, to you all I say... WAHT IS TAHT?!?!? I say that just sitting there and taking it is not the answer... but with all the hate/flak I'm always getting, other than resort to violence... how do I react to that?

You: You could try talking it out!
Me: I've tried this and still everyone makes fun of me or shuns me. I've made sure to use a clear, concise, honest, level-headed tone... to no avail.

You: Then tell a teacher!
Me: Yeah! Lets tell someone else who makes fun of me that students are and it bugs me! That'll solve the problem! >_<

You:...
Me: Exactly...

I'm sick and freaking tired of all the crap I get every day... You guys help me keep my last few strings of sanity in my pocket... but it's getting thinner... Tsuran has been a bit distraught because of how the people at school treat him, and I feel the pain that he is going through because I've had to deal with it since 2nd grade... It's sickening... I'm open to any suggestions.

*sigh* Well... trust me, I'm no stranger to being made fun of. I've gotten my fair share of all that. Maybe or maybe not to the extent of what happens to you, I dunno, I've never really seen it.

I always get called all sorts of stuff, being made fun of for bein' a furry, gettin' called 'gay' all the time, being made the outsider in most of my classes. And.. I know this probably doesn't help much... but I just try to ignore as much of it as I can. I tell myself 'who are they to tell me what I am? I am my own person, no one else can tell me otherwise, and honestly, I really don't care what they say.'

And, also, another aspect that, heh, probably doesn't help much either ^^;; I laugh at myself. It's sometimes not an easy thing to do, but I've learned to do it. Now, this may or may not be needed in your case, like I said, I really haven't seen what's been going on. But when you combine these two things, virtually nothing will get to you. (Or, at least, it's been that way in my case ^^; )

I really don't know if this helps ya out at all... It's just what I've always tried to do whenever someone tries to poke fun at me. For the most part, it's worked.. Just.. don't listen to 'em.. it's really all I can say..

[Kenoku]

Eh, I was always Mr.GetAlongWithEveryone. I never had to deal with crap. Well a little, but not alot.

Daemon, as your friend I think I can tell you this. You won't like it, but it pretty much needs to be said, so you can get over this.

A lot of times, you take things way too personally.

I can't speak a lot for the way your classmates treat you, because, well, I've never had a class with you. But as for your teachers, it seems like you overreact a lot. Me, Cows, Tsuran, and Snerlin, we've all had all the classes you're taking before. We've had all those teachers, probably more times than you've had them. And all the things that they purportedly say/do to you... seem way out of character for those teachers. And, believe me. We've seen the best and worst of most of the teachers in our school.

So, either you just rub off in about the most wrong way possible on every stinkin' one of your teachers, or you're taking offense at a lot of things that weren't meant to be offensive.

Just try to give people the benefit of the doubt. We're all nerds here, man. We know what it's like to be picked on. You're a smart guy. You can get past how we're looked down upon.

[metalfox]

Meh, he's not the only one that's had some really bad teachers ^^;; I mean, I can understand where he's comin' from.

[[QVC]-Branmuffin]

I dunno why, but I feel like I'm trying to sound like an attention grubber when I say that, but that's because that's what ppl tell me >_<

we don't make fun of you for being a furry we just make fun of furries in general. and When it comes to being picked on I am pretty sure I have the right to the showboat, thanks to the "improved" hamilton county policy on fighting, beating the living daylights out of someone becasue they are different in no longer the cool thing to do, but back when I went to OLPH and really was the outsider, I can remember being beaten up every day. Actual physical harm, I can remember glasses being taken away, punches bruises, etc. not fun stuff let me tell you, CSAS is probably one of the best schools for nerds, fat people, cultist, fanatics, and extreme view. East Ridge I think will show you a light that you don't want to see, I have seen perfectly happy nerds leave East Ridge completly changed, hurt, all the bad things in life, and having gone their for a year, I can safefly say it is not a cool place to be, you want to talk about ignorance of outside ideas? heh, east ridge has that for sure.

I'm sorry to hear you feel that way but I think Alc is right, just watching your interactions with teachers, you seemed to have come off as a deviant to them, show them that you are not and they will probably be alot more supportive for you

[Kenoku]

Oh come on! One of teh ten commandments say, "Do unto others and thy would do to thyself" (or something worded in that way). Dont take crap. Someone starts a fight with you, as long as they throw the first punch you can beat the crud out of em. None of that "walk away!" or "just ignore them" or "tell an adult" stuff never works. Ha! I'd do a backflip if it ever happened.

[Phayun-C]

Lol, that's not one of the ten commandments, Kenoku

However one of the big rules is to turn the other cheek...

Plus, if you retaliate physically in school, you'll get expelled. Which ain't a terribly great thing to have happen.

[[QVC]-Branmuffin]

like that kid who was getting harassed by those other kids about his dying grandma? He retaliated because he had had enough and he got sent to friggen juvy! woo hoo for justice eh?

[Kenoku]

I mean not beathing the crud until they cant breathe. I mean just enough to get the point accross not to mess with em.

[[QVC]-Branmuffin]

lol... i don't feel like ranting XD
