I was depressed during the midpoint of 6th grade up to around 7th grade because I realized how horrible it is to get older.
Though, some people do say things just to get attention.
 
I am not anti-bullying..let me explain I am pro coping. I was bullied for years (even by two teachers) and also dealt with the death of a sibiling and loss of my mobility (regained some but not all) all in jr. high/ high school, and I am still so frustarted by the anti-bullying deal. I feel people would do much better if we taught them how to cope with stupid jerks, because the reality is no matter how often we tell them to be nice to others there will still be a great many jerks. Working customer service you'll deal with jerks a lot of 'em and you can't tell them just to be nice, or go to an adult (especially if you are the adult). But we can teach our children how to cope, build self esteem, and work as a community to brush these jerks off. We need to work more on controling our actions rather than controlling others. That doesn't mean I'm for bullying either, but a lot of people I know don't know how to cope...

Oh I also think that parents should pay more attention to what their child is posting, and wearing and just general life. Eat dinner as a family and talk to each other... we've forgotten how to talk it seems.

I agree 100% with you! The only advice for bullying that I've heard people say is "ignore them" but most of the time, that advice is worthless. It's one of those things that are easier said than done.
 
I like going to the movies alone. I prefer to just sit and suck it all in and get the best experience from it without people around you trying to talk to you.

It really is, we either ignore the problem or focus on the wrong portion of the problem and victimise rather than empower. Coping strategies are helpful for a million other things to including but not limited too, jerk supervisors, general adult stress, unexpected problems. I wish we would focus on our own actions rather than the other persons because there's nothing we can do about their behaviour.

we have this 'Cinematheque' here that shows a lot of oldies and random obscure stuff so whenever they screen good **** I go there. It's a nice feeling just being there by yourself and focus fully on a film.. ahh
 
Pokemon is a boring and repetitive series.
City Folk was my favorite AC game.
I don't like Splatoon.
I love freezing cold. My room is like a meat locker right now. <3
My favorite color is White, and yes it is a color.

I do too!
I hate when the house is hot during winter. Like isn't winter so that you can wear all of your fluffy sweaters? I can't do that if the house is so hot I need to wear t-shirts. It defeats the purpose of having warm clothes. Our house is always so freaking hot. It sucks. :C
