I swear, the kids in my school can be so narrow minded and hipocritcal, it's insulting. So I finally worked up the courage to wear a ponytail to school, and every guy or girl who previously made fun of me said I looked good. One girl actually offered to braid it, (although it's not long enough yet) and another offered to put it up in a ponytail-bun type thing (I declined since my hair is too thick and curly to put it up yet.) I probablly should be happy that they took it so well, but a lot of them had previously made fun of me for my hair, and now they love it! It make me angry because they had such a quick change of heart. ......Idiots!
Wear your hair the way you want to, my friend. It's nice that you received compliments, but ultimately its all about what you want and how you feel about yourself.

I know, it just makes me angry because the harassed me constantly, and now, they want to be my best friend for all I know. I hate hipocrites.
Just remember who your true friends are throughout all of this. I am still incredibly weary of most of my family after recent events. Now, I'm not telling you to adopt a "trust no one" type of attitude, what I'm saying is look for the people who will support you no matter what (murder and other crimes notwithstanding) and those are the people you can count on.
Could'nt of said it better my self Rich . I agree Very well put.

Don't be angry, anger is bad, enjoy the positive comments and ignore the negative ones. Peace.

I know what you mean. I was so made fun of when I'd just brush my hair & keep it oily, then in my senior yeart I just decided to shampoo it alot & let it be dry & shiny & soft & beautiful, and I had to beat people off with a stick. Wierd! I thought it'd be that way though. I kept it oily cause it kept people away & gave me peace, space, and solitude. I was kinda pissed too over the shallowness of going from seeing me as a complete idiot to praising me like I was a god. I was like, whatever.
