im 17/f umm i live in katy,texas & i pretty much hate it here. im a senior so yeah. but for college im staying here. & im going t U. of Houston. i don't fit in here at all. ever since i moved he re in 8th grade im always getting made fun of. in school, or even like when i go somewhere people from my school will be there & make fun of me and laugh at me. i guess its because i don't say anything. but sometimes i do they still will make fun of me. & i guess it's because im really skinny, and people call me a monkey. and i guess it's because i kind of have alot of hair on me. like on my face idk. & i think its also because im not like other girls who get dressed up for school, nd have make up on, and my hair done. in class no one really talks to me and i don't even know why. i don't really talk to anyone because most of the time i get stuck with the popular kids who're in my class & i don't think they like me at all. this is my senior year and i want to be the girl that everyone wants to be around. but how? please help me!!
Don't listen to the popular kids and try to find some friends who are into the same stuff you are. Join a club, volunteer or do anything you're interested in that'll help you get to know other people with those same interests.
Lastly, be confident in yourself. Don't be afraid to say what's on your mind when appropriate, and people will get to know you. [ Xyla's advice column | Ask Xyla A Question ]

Just go up to a random person in class and say hi. Act confident so that the popular kids have no fun in making fun of you. If they do, dont be afraid to argue back. Try to smile a lot, for some reason, people like that. I know everyone says this, but be proud of your body. You do not know how many girls in my school would love to be skinny. So basically, just ignore all the negative comments and focus on the positive ones. This is your senior year!!! Have fun and focus on your studies (the most important thing in high school). :) Good luck [ xxlilreddivaxx's advice column | Ask xxlilreddivaxx A Question ]
