Dear Diary,
There have been times in my school life where I get put in classes that I don't fit in. Not for reasons that you would think though. I did not feel that way because I wasn't capable of succeeding in that class, not smart enough or being too smart. I didn't fit in because I wasn't like the rest of the kids that were in there... They were the popular ones, the ones who joked too much, they were the ones who put me down and just didn't care. How could I possibly SURVIVE in that class ALL year when I felt like everyone was talking about me?
Every time I would walk into one of those classes I would relive old moments I had with some of my "classmates". I had a class one year which I absolutely dreaded going to. The people in there were the ones that made fun of me before or made fun of me then. I hated being in that classroom, I hated being called on by the teacher and I couldn't even stand having to get up to even staple my papers! As you can tell, my self-esteem wasn't the best... There was even a point in that school year where I couldn't take it even more and went crying to my teacher after school begging her to move me away from those harsh names, harsh jokes and harsh judgments they made about me.
Those moments are behind me now. My self-esteem is much higher and I feel great about myself. My, look at how much I've overcome :)
