I’ve had a mixed bag of experiences with schooling. I have always been an old soul trapped in a child's body. If a person wanted me to pick a time-period to define who I am, I would have picked my time in middle school when I was bullied for physical appearance and my speech impediment among other things. I was naive back then and didn’t know anything bad was going on around me. I was worried about other people, but at that time I should have been worried about myself. Luckily one of my now good friends helped me pull away from all of the problems I was facing at that time. I wanted to help people with their problems and insecurities because I hate the fact that this is not just a school issue, and things like this happen in real life, too.
