I have been put down by people that hate me. Now I am not brought down by people, I am more confident and I don't want people to take me down. People have judged me on just how I look like and not how I really am like. They judged me on the way I act. I am weird and I am proud of the way I act because I didn't judge them. I do what I want to do as long as it doesn't hurt no one. I wouldn't do or say anything if it would offend someone. - intermediate student, Michigan USA
