You're labeling yourself, which you really shouldn't do. Just be yourself. When you start labeling yourself, people are going to label you. Get used to it.
LagunaBabe answered Tuesday April 21 2009, 7:03 pm: The best advice I can give you is to talk to people, try to make friends or make peace, and show them how different you really are now and that you're a cool person, etc. The best way I can think of doing that is join something, do something that shows how talented and cool you are, people will look up to you for that and see how different you are now.

time will pass and people forget.
and seperate yourself from those people that give you a hard time.
and i'm assuming your in 8th grade? if you are. high school. you can reinvent yourself. and if your in 9th. your just a little freshie :) theres time for changes. everybody changes.
don't change yourself for others. do it for yourself. [ xojessii's advice column | Ask xojessii A Question ]

just_ask_me answered Tuesday April 21 2009, 3:42 pm: Never become someone people like, become someone YOU like. When I was younger, I changed "labels" so much and I was goth, punk, ghetto, preppy, etc, etc! We all change, and when we're younger, we change constantly. I'm sure other people you know have changed who they are too. If someone brings it up or asks about it, just say "I am who I am. People change" or "That's what I used to like, but I changed and grew up." That should shut them up. People will like you if you like yourself and you're a good person.
