I needed to get to class quickly but, in the hallway it was like a sea full of sharks. Everyone was pushing and shoving their way through the crowd. I tried to do the same but, I was not strong enough to do so. Then I thought what if I became the bully then people would move out if the way for me. A month later I was the most known person in the school. To get to that point I had to start pushing everyone that I could reach in the halls. People would try to stand up to me I simply said, “ Why should I listen to you?” “What happened to you? You used to be very nice to everyone?” The brave person students called her, said. I looked away from that person and continued walking down the hall as people made a pathway for me.
The American Bully should give the impression of great strength for its size. It is a compact and medium/large size dog with a muscular body and blocky head. The American Bully should have the appearance of heavy bone structure with a bulky build and look.

I personally agree to never intentionally bully, hurt, or make fun of anyone. I promise to help stop bullying whenever i see it happening. To always tell an adult, teacher, or authority figure to help end the bullying. To always try to stop rumors and gossip, and to never talk about anyone behind their back. I will always try to stop the bullying even if my friends are the bullies, and to always tell them to stop. If I ever unintentionally bully someone I promise to always apologize.
As of today, I've attended four different schools. In elementary school, I was constantly bullied for being Asian. Peers would make fun of my eyes for being "too big" for an Asian, asked inappropriate questions regarding if I ate a certain domesticated animal, or talk to me as if I couldn't understand English. To overcome the bullying, I became someone who I wasn't. I was not myself and I hated it. I had to be this other person just so people did not bother me. I started to become the bully, changed what I ate, how I dressed and started to cover up my insecurities. I use to put my hair in ponytails or in a bun then leaving it down because I was made fun of my buddha shaped ears. I didn't want to speak to my family because they all had a specific
Whenever I am given an assignment about bullying I get frustrated; it is not because it pains me to discuss an experience, but more so that I have never been able to classify myself as one of the three broad roles that play a role in creating a bullying scenario. Throughout my school years I have been informed countless times about the three roles of bullying; we consider the bully the doer of the abuse, the bystander the observer of the abuse and of course the victim is known as the receiver of physical or verbal abuse. Based on these umbrella terms I could fully consider myself a victim, but that is absolutely not how I would like to be known. Calling myself a victim makes me seem so pitiful and weak, whereas I like to consider myself

In John Cloud’s essay “The Myths of Bullying” he talks about the reaction that schools and states have to bullying. Cloud expresses his concerns for bullying and also explains the steps that people are taking to help prevent it. He explains that most of the systems used now are not effective and are making school’s waste money. He then provides his own opinion on how bullying should be approached in school systems. Cloud’s essay not only tries to persuade the reader to his cause but he uses literary elements such as bathos and logos to appeal to and draw in the reader.
I remember it as clear as day, the incident happened during my sixth grade year. The day was an ordinary day and I was sitting in music class, but I never sung in class. I was seated further in the back where I could get away with lip syncing and I was sat next to this guy. At the end of one of the songs he had turned to me, and made a comment about how I was an overachiever. I was always really quiet and shy when I had to talk to people, but I was not going to be bullied. I simply turned to him and told him that I will see him again when he is cleaning my office. I began to grow out of my shell as I aged, but the classification of being called a “nerd” continued.
I have just reached my one millionth hit on my YouTube video! I created this video to share the depths of bullying and abuse to those worldwide. I am extraordinarily passionate about anti-bullying, and I hope to share my ideas with numerous people. Abuse is happening worldwide, and it is an action that might not ever be resolved. I wanted to construct this video because there is an abundance of harassment happening in my own town. People are getting bullied at school due to their style or certain interests they posses. Although bullying takes place everywhere, I wanted to focus my video on one specific event. This event took place in Chicago.
In this world of negativity, I believe that you should stay positive. When I was in elementary school, I used to get bullied for being bigger than all the other kids. I didn’t understand why was I getting bullied, but I was still nice. I did what I was supposed to do to maintain good grades and pass all my classes. Staying positive in a world full of mean people can take you as far, as you allow it too.
A time in my life where I had been involved and observed a bullying incident was in grade 6. I had a best friend named Katie, she was amazingly weird and unique. I have known her since grade 3 and we were the closest of friends, she wasn’t the type to pick on or bully people and she loved making friends and was very social. One day at recess she tried making friends with the “popular kids”, they thought she was weird and started bullying her verbally, they called her so many things it made a big impact on her and she became anti-social and not the girl I met and became best friends with… as a best friend I couldn’t just stand there and watch so I went up to all 20 or so “popular kids”, I spoke my mind and told them to stop, because of that
I believe that bullying is unfair, the power of abuse can be very emotional. I will tell you about what happen to me while I was a brick and mortar school.
For most of my time in school, I have been bullied for reasons known to me. Of course as most children who get bullied, I did not stand up for myself. I believe that not having the ability to stand up for myself has molded me into an insecure person. I had to get over my fear of hurting others feelings to stand up for myself. I got over my fear by standing up to my best friend.
Bullying has been around for as long as social acceptance has been important to the human race. Only recently, however, has it come front and center as a major problem taking place throughout the country. With this sudden change in the way we perceive bullying I asked of our readers to send in a store involving them or someone they know and love, that affect them in deep and maybe lasting ways. Needless to say, I got a glut of responses, some great, all heart wrenching. So, as promised I will be printing some of these deeply personal letters in place of my column for the coming weeks. As a person who has experienced firsthand the effect of bullying it is my mission to shine a light on this problem, and do anything I can to stop it. Without further ado, I give you the first of many letters that I hope will show just how traumatic bullying can be.
As I was walking the campus of my high school before school, I was pretty much left alone by the other students. I entered the math building to go to my first class and was inundated by a flood of people meandering about. As I attempted to make my way through the crowd, they parted before me, providing unobstructed room to pass. I looked at the faces of hundreds of students as each of them avoided making eye contact, trying not to draw attention to themselves. The one person who looked me in the eye, quickly looked away, but it was too late; I had found my next victim. He was a half-back on the football team, weighing about 180 pounds and was over 6’ tall. None of this mattered to me; nobody could beat me in a fight, I have been doing this
