Well, here it goes. I'm about to lay out my life to millions of strangers that probably landed on this site on accident. My life doesn't really "suck". I mean compared to things that I have read here, my life is pretty good. Even though, I think people can relate to me. Let me start from the beginning:
I am a thirteen year old in a small town. So small so that everyone knows everyone. And everything. I have lived year almost my whole life and the friends that I have made are great. I think. And my family is financially stable and I guess you can see already that my life doesn't suck and you are probably smirking. But I have dealt with things.
I am a huge nerd. Like huge. I study when I am not supposed to and get really mad when I get like minus 1. I usually get A+ on like everything, which is sort of where my problems begin. I am literally tormented because of my grades. When I won the Spelling Bee and got all the way to state, I was tormented. When I won the Science Fair against the whole school, I was devastated. You might think I am stupid but everybody gave me shit because of it.
I have tried failing tests and once I was actually failing a class because I couldn't take it. I literally cried when I came home because I had won the Science Fair. Great, now they have another thing to ridicule me for.
Plus, I am known as "PERFECT". Whatever that is. I have a good family, super smart and really nice. I am so tired of all the crap that everyone gives me. Its all fake sincerity and I cant take it anymore. I have tried to kill myself many times and you think its stupid, but I am also really pushed at home. My parents say I have to get A's on all my tests which is probably why I am a huge nerd. When I got an honorable mention at Math Blast, I tried killing myself. When I won the Science Fair, I tried killing myself. When people make fun of me for the most stupid things, like correcting the teacher, I try killing myself. The only thing that takes me away from all of my problems is ice skating.
I started ice skating about two years ago and it was a blessing sent from God. Whenever I am on the ice, I am free. No one can tell me that I am too smart or bragging or perfect. I am just another ice skater that people see as they pass by. What's even better is that the ice rink is in another city. It's perfect.
So here is what I have to say. You might think that this was the stupidest my life sucks article ever, and those of you who are pre-moderating this are probably passing over it. But I have lived through stuff that I wish I could take back. I did stupid stuff but I have grown through it. And for those of you nerds out there, just remember. Surround yourself with people that actually enjoy your accomplishments and encourage them. I have the best friend in the entire world who always will be there for me. Also, you don't always have to be studying. Do something else. Find your ice skating. And all you stupid bullies who are tormenting nerds, should shut up and do your work. Maybe if you paid attention in class instead of being jealous and ridiculing us nerds you might actually get the grades that we get. | |
