Story 1
This story is about a girl from Hong Kong.
when I was in senior high school in 2016, I was simply bullied by my classmates just simply because I am being myself after all. What my friends think is that is not okay to be fully motivated to go to school and be active in school activities etc. Yes, all it seems to be exactly how a kid in school should be right? Since I grow up in such a competitive culture, I don’t start to join tutorials classes after school like many of my classmates do to get a good grade in a public exam. However, what I wanted the most at that time is only a happy school memory that I will treasure, that is how the bully start. When the girls in my class team up like the heathers to bully those who are not in the same Gang as they are, I had only one friend left that is my bestie. ——-When I realized I was being the outcast of my class? Well in short I was the last person to know there is a class group, I always had no one that was willing to do a group project and I had to do everything alone. No one will talk to me except for my bestie. That continues for one year. I remembered vividly how I realized it turned to be a bully both physically and verbally in 2017 and that is my saddest year ever. There is a lesson for careers guidance, once the teacher plays a game with the whole class. In the game we can bid on things that are provided by the teacher, I bid on an item that say a place without a wall and I was so proud to bid on that item but at the exact same time, my classmates kept saying that I was the different one and I was the outcast one so of course, she needed that and they made jokes on how I bid the item that did not have any monetary value. And that was when I became the soft target of everyone. There were nights I came home and just cry. The more I stand up for myself, the more I got bullied as they think that I am funny and dumb to even stand up.
My parents urged the teacher to look into that, they either won’t believe as they think that I am normal or the more I got help from the teacher the more the bullying come and said that there is no one will put up for me when I go out. Yes but still I believe there are people willing to help you and support me since I will just be myself all the time. That turned out into physical bullying for the rest of my senior high school years. Up till now, those who bully me still think what they did was absolutely correct without the slightest bit of compassion for me.
What I wanted to say is stand up and know that you are vulnerable and enough for just being who we are right now is what matters the most. You are enough and never stop being yourself😊
