Personal Narrative: Bullying In High School

Superior Essays
I swung at him with all my energy and might. Then a barrage of his fists came at me like a machine gun, one after the other. Then he cut my lip open. Someone in the crowd shouted, “Dude, your lip is bleeding badly!” I shouted back, “So!”
Every morning before school in seventh grade I’d get a sick, I got to take a shit feeling in my gut. I hated waiting for that demonic yellow bus. The waiting was the worst because I sat on that bus anxious for their next attack. I usually sat by myself because I was skinny looking with big ears, buckteeth, coke bottle thick nerdy glasses and my head hunched over. Would you sit next to a kid like that? I didn’t think so. I was the perfect target for bullies. Shit, if I was a bully I would’ve picked on me too. I was that dorky.
The first assault happened when I was half asleep chilling in my seat one morning. All of a sudden I felt this hard slap from a juvenile hand jerk my head forward into the back of the seat in front of me. It was a force I never felt before. The kicker to that surprising event (although it doesn’t seem surprising after I described how I looked) was the roar of laughter I heard from the entire bus. The three bullies

I sulked in the bus while my blood came to a boil, my veins popped out of my neck, my face turned a bright beet red, and I scrunched up my face. I felt my teeth grind together like nails to a chalk board. Every muscle in my body was solid like marble I was that tense.
As I stormed into the house and roared a primal scream like a psychotic lion, our two new dogs K-9 and Pushy ran outside through the doggie door they were that frightened of me. Then I lunged at the wall in our hallway and punched through it. I imagined it was those fuck-tards laughing in my face. When I finally opened my eyes from squinting there was a nice gaping hole left from my rage filled

    He unleashed a flurry of japs and punches in his rage. To my surprise, every individual hit was strong and hurt upon impact. I defended as many of the punches as I possibly could, but even the ones I could block gradually hurt me. During that time, I couldn't land a single hit, for I was essentially focusing on defending myself and making any openings would have not been ideal. I could’ve continued to keep up with his punches, except while I was avoiding one of his attacks, I lost my footing, curled my head forward to protect it, and landed on the floor with my back first, which was what we were taught.…

The gang of misfits weren’t always the gang of misfits, we used to all be alone until today because today is the day I fought for my freedom. Let’s take this story back to the start of freshman year, not too long ago, but feels long enough.…

    The principal told me to ignore it because the best way to get rid of bullies is to ignore them but I thought to myself, “How do you ignore being punched and pushed around. How do you pretend it doesn’t exist?” With tears in my eyes, feeling like the smallest and weakest human in the entire universe on the principal’s office chair I nodded and agreed to ignore it although I knew it wouldn’t stop anything. From a very bright, smart child I became lonely and very…

I disliked almost everything about it but what I did not know at the time is that by my senior year I would eventually love this school as I molded it into a place that I wanted to be at.

After meeting a valuable presence that will have forever leave an imprint on me, I decided that I needed to get involved with school to become apart of it. From that moment, the following year, I signed up for the Academic Team meanwhile continuing the Word Language Club which I had joined Freshmen Year and Girl Scouts which…

    C1. In this case, though no particular motives are given for the anonymous students to be bullying Larry, there are a few possible reasons why they could be doing so. The students perhaps have a grudge against Larry or dislike him and want to insult him for whatever reason by leaving his email and posting false statements and even cartoons about him (though I think insulting someone with the name of a group of people who have a different sexual orientation isn't very clever). Now as for forwarding the email with the link to the site to other friends, perhaps I wanted to hear their opinions on the site and (hopefully not, as it would make me a terrible person) try to get my friends in trouble (on second thought, no real friend would do that!).…
