Deep breath.

So after the last two classes of my Schools in American Society, I have figured out that about 10 out of the 13 females hate me.  Why?!  Because I am willing to stand up for myself and say things how I say them.  I am not one to make everything sounds awesome just for the teacher.  I am going to say how I feel about a topic because that is what the class is about.

Example:
Last weeks topic was uniforms.
I was asked by the teacher my opinion on uniforms and if I would have liked them when I was in school.
I expressed how I do not like uniforms because one can not express them self freely.  I went on to explain that in high school I expressed who I was greatly through the choices of clothing that I put on in the morning.  -Band tee, skinny jeans, converse, bracelets, bows in my hair and a sideways belt.  
I went on to say that if I had not been able to dress like that, I honestly think I would be a somewhat of a different person now because I would not have had the freedom to wear that.  Now, thankfully the girl next to me and the boy next to me love me and we all are super open minded and get along well.  They totally agreed with me.
The rest of the girls in the class thought I was some sort of freak because I expressed myself through clothing.  One snot who went to a private school who wore uniforms through 8th grade, then attended a public school 9th and up looked directly at me with a death glare and said "Umm I NEVER expressed or even now express myself through my clothes.  I wore sweats every day because I was comfortable in them. I don't see how you express yourself through your clothes.  Uniforms are a good idea."  And of course her snotty little prissy looking friends next to her were glaring at me and then all smiled at her after her dumb comment.


Example 2:
Today's topic- Public vs Private Education
I was asked by the teacher to say something interesting that I found in my article.  I proceeded to tell the class that I found out that Private schools can reject a student who has special needs.  Private schools do not have special education teachers.  I was then asked how I felt about this.  I explained that I thought it was discrimination and that no child, I don't care what school it is, should not be turned away from education.  I then went on to say I know that Private schools do not get government money to pay special ed teachers but I think that every school should still have special education teachers.
Wellllllll the snot from the previous example, her BFF, of course had a comment for me.  Her comment was that private schools should not have special education teachers because it costs too much money and private schools do not have the kind of money to pay them and special education students should be public schools anyway.  What really pissed me off about this....the girl is a freaking SPECIAL ED major.  I'm so glad that she thinks her future students do not have the right to go to private schools and that they are only meant for public schools.
Tttthhheeeennnn some other girl had to throw her 2 cents in and comment about something else that just pissed me off and made me look like I was stupid for standing up for special education students.

Lets just say, its a good thing Tyler sits next to me and can calm me down cause I was on the edge of my freaking seat.

Okay S, deep breath.

End rant...until Thursday when I'm bound to get ganged up on again!
