School is my prison where I cant talk, be my self, I seem to shrink and become mute only staring at the floor the whole time,I cant see why I don't have friends among them? Is it because I don't listen to rap,or that I have no fashion sense?Or is it my love for books that scares them off.So what if I tell bad jokes have a deep voice and a button nose.I am who I am and wont change.I laugh,sing off tune,love to read while I eat,have messy hair that fight me to the death ,I am my own self,and I wont change or get pressure on.I am my own self no matter what people say.

The author's comments:
I think every one should stop feeling bad if you get bullied or they make fun off you,Is better to be yourself and find friends who can help you if you feel alone.One of the major death of teen among drunk driving is suicide so help prevent suicide by helping someone in need,or if you need help talk to someone you trust.
