I'm so sorry that I didn't see this thread yesterday. How awful things sound for you at the moment. They just have to start looking up. I do know what you mean when you said that quote "The more time I am around humans, the more I love animals." I feel the same way. It seems as I get older people get meaner. I guess they really aren't, because they always have been mean!
I would hate to have to go to school in this day and age. I don't know what it's like over there, but here, it seems to pretty much suck, unless of course your popular, pretty or a athlete (nothing against any of them), to which I was or am neither!
I've lived my life, and I think it's been a pretty fair one (look, I have a great husband and 3 wonderful dogs!), not always easy (not at all ), but I love the life I have, my family, and my internet friends! At least when you get mad on the computer you can just shut if off or go to another site, can't always do that with people!
I'm a waitress so I'm around stupid people all the time (both working with and serving!), so when I'm home, I'm happy. This is my haven.
I know right now your having alot of problems, but it WILL get better! And hopefully it's soon!
Take care my friend and keep your chin up. We'll always be here for you!
Your friend Anna {{{HUGS!}}}

So true!!!

I have the first PE lesson this coming Monday and I'm so frigging nervous. The only good thing though is that I asked one of the PE teachers if I could get permission to bike home after PE and shower home instead of in the public shower at school and she said there shouldn't be a problem with that. I had to shower in the public one at the last school I went to and that was just... not fun. Sure, I'll miss the lunch break by biking home like that (PE is just before lunch break) but I prefer doing that than hearing comments like "what saggy and fat tits you have".

Lynne, my dad reported it to the police but I sadly don't think that will help. They don't have time to go looking for a bike... As for reporting it to the school, they couldn't care less. I remember when I had my first bike stolen, the principal and assistants I told at school just said "that's none of our concern, we can't help that".

I have borrowed my grandmas old bike for now. Sure, it's old and rusty, the breaking doesn't work all that well and it doesn't have any... what's it called... Those little panels where you can choose how hard it is to pedal... but it's a bike and it's goes faster than walking so it's ok

Ann,

I'm sorry about your bike being stolen and all the jerky people you've had to deal with lately. Sounds like you've been having a hard time this month. Just know we are here for you and value you as a person. Who cares what others think...if they're looking at you in the shower and making comments...they are also insecure about their own bodies. Love yourself...you deserve it.

I want to leave you with a quote by Maya Angelou that I just love:
"Surviving is Important. Thriving is Elegant." Look your school and peers in the face, hold your head high and be proud of who you are. If you allow others to make you feel bad, they've won. Don't let them win Ann. You deserve better.

God Bless.
