84 thoughts on “The Worst Day of Copper Bigfoot’s Life”
This is a long, long rant, so Set up a cousion and some water.
I’ll begin with a song, a song I really wish would come true…
Its all right
And its comin along
We gotta get right back where we started from
Love is good, love is strong
We gotta get right back where we started from
Now, this isn’t about love…. OK, it is partially. About 1/4. Rather, it is about reputation and finding your place in the social ladder
In order to tell my story while protecting the indentitys of my friends and schools :-X, I have to use this symbol code….
: Me
CO2: My old school. My home school district
CO: My hometown
S: My new school, outside of my hometown
RO: The town my school is in
RY: My male friend in my grade
K: My female friend in my grade
Z: My Crush :-[
BE: My male friend in the grade above me
BR: My (9 months older) cousin, who I am very protective of >:(
P: The program that I’m in
It all started when I was 8 and half months old: I met the love of my life, Z
Fast forward a decade and a few years…
I’m in CO2. Everybody hates me. I’m the school omega: The scapegoat. When sdomeone has a problem (Or a need to molest someone) they take it out on me. They even dystoryed my holy books.
Decideing that CO2 was too mcuh for me, they sent me to S, Zs school. I was so excited I could barely breathe.
However, I also have multiple mental dissabilites, and couldn’t remmeber anyones name at the new school. Z was supposed to show me around, but didn’t.
In gym, I met a friend, K. She didn’t show me around either, but atleast she talked to and understood me. She quickyl became the only person outs the P that I talked to.
I get sick for 7 months. They send me back to S, but I don’t go into the mainsteam classes. Rather, I stay in the P room. Theres also a chance of being held back, which means being away from Z.
Today was colonial day. I saw the majority of the school for the first time. they all said, “Eeew, its :)” or ” Move over”. The only one nice to me was Z, and he usually isn’t unless he iniciates the conversation. Meanwhile, Z was surrond by guys doing things such as rubbing under his chin. Just the thought that there might be rumours about me and him all over the school makes me want to go to another school (again).
RY then expalined to me that everybody hates me now thats I’ve left, they’ve been TOO curious, and now they’re afriad of me. In other words, S is another CO2.
Yet another middle school. Yet another bunch of young adolescents. I’ve always hated people my age, but never THIS much.
Hoepfully next year I’ll get to know some more people. But after this, it seems impossible.
Its all right
And its comin along
We gotta get right back where we started from
Love is good, love is strong
We gotta get right back where we started from

*hug* I know what you mean. Everyone hated me and, like two of my friends, but mainly me, in my olde school because we got these girls expelled. For having votka (sp?) in school. They were idiots, and they disturbed the peace. I’ve heard they still laugh at me there.
In the school before that, I was the crazy short freak who was a year younger than the majority of rest of her grade. It was sometimes two years…Anyway, I had 4 friends and the rest of the school hated us.
I had no friends at all in fourth grade and was basically the class joke. AKA, the artsy blonde chick with the straight-leg jeans.
Now I’m in another new school, and have accepted the fact that I’m basically a loner. I’m terribly shy.
Ok, done whining.
MB friends pwn.
Anyway, just say to yourself, “screw my rep, they won’t matter in a few years,” and be yourself.
But feel free to keep pressuring your parents to homeschool you. Heh heh heh…I do.
And, please don’t hate me for saying this, but if this Z character is only nice to you when he initiates the conversation and basically ignores you when he is with his friends, he isn’t worth it. You can do better.
Not that I’m saying that you should just forget him; I know that doesn’t just happen.
Anyway, *hug*.

I spent about a year in sixth and seventh grades at the bottom of the pecking order. It was awful and seemed to go on forever. The worst part was the bullying; I wouldn’t have minded so much just being left alone.
In retrospect, there must have been things I could have done to make myself a less tempting target. Maybe if I’d just asked them to leave me alone… But it is a tough position to be in, no question about it.
School is almost out, though, isn’t it? Will you have the summer off? Maybe things will have improved by September.

I’ve moved a lot and I’ve never been the class joke. I have millions of friends and I’m the class brain which comes with the dreaded nicknames too. Nicknames such as Einstein and geniusgirl.
Anyways….
*hugs Copper Bigfoot and sends a box of virtual choklit to Copper*
I remember in Tennessee… I was bullied all the time by this one idiot girl who I really hate. I wasn’t the class joke though.

*makes soothing noises to Copper* I’m so sorry that your school is full of jerks! I had to move before seventh grade and before eighth grade, so I know what that’s like. I didn’t make friends in either grade until March! I don’t have a lot of friends at my school, because all the other smart kids are popular and most people think I’m a nerd, but I’m not hated. Just hang in there, Copper.

it looks like today has sucked for a lot of ppl!
im giving away free hugs for all
(ha, like anyone would want me hugging them)
#8: MB friends pwn? what a brilliant saying!
CB, ive definitely been there. never believe a single comment from any of those rude ppl. do not cave. thats what they want you to do. ppl such as them are not worth anyones time.
7th grade was the worst year of my life. it was so bad that ive nvr talked to anyone about it since (no joke!). if someone asks me about my experiences from 7th gr for wvr reason, i just tell them that i dont remember much.
i went to a very small catholic skool. there were four other ppl in my class. my 4 worst enemies. 3 guys: M, C, & T; and one girl: A. they hated me b/c: i couldnt play any sport whatsoever, i had ugly hair, & didnt wear the same clothes that everyone else wore. & they must have felt that they needed to convey their hatred to me every day, or else i would forget.
@ first, they just did annoying things, such as whip various playground balls @ me during recess. then they found out about my little problem…i cant look anyone directly in the eye, that is. (why this is, i seriously hav no idea) so every day in class, they would stare @ me. for hours. yes, i was a little freaked out by then. i think i cracked a little – + as soon as i started fighting back, A threatened to beat me up for being “mean” to M, C +T.
halfway through that year, we had this stupid little design-a-uniform contest, & i won 2nd place or something. they had entered the contest also, and man, were they furious. M went up to my teacher and actually spent about half an hour telling her why his design was absolutely ingenious, and why my design was nothing compared w/ his. well, of course the teacher didnt buy any of it.
that was when M decided that i relly had to go. so he asked his little sister to run up to me during recess, grab onto me, @ act like i was beating her up. this was kinda funny, b/c she was bigger than i was. after she started the act, M, C& T came over & beat me up, to look like they were defending Ms little sister.
they tried this a few times, but the teachers pretty much saw through it all, so i nvr got in trouble.
i tried telling my parents about it…& they got me a shrink & a perscription for adderall b/c they thought i had my head in the clouds & was trying to create drama. that was when i started meditating. (next time youre having an awful day, try meditation. it helps so much) soon i was addicted to it, & meditated for 3-4 hrs a day. that is probably why my “6th sense” is quite strong now. meditation is also the one thing that attracted me to my religion (wicca), & i dont know what id do now w/o my faith. i still meditate now, but not nearly as often.
well, its been almost 5 yrs since 7th grade, & now im needled b/c im “sad”, “depressed”, EMOtional, wvr. ppl usually make this conclusion after seeing that i wear something black every day, and b/c im a bit reserved (+ its all so ironic b/c i pretty much hav as much emotion as a brick). in other words, ppl are shallow, so dont take everyones opinion seriously. (see, this rant had a point after all!) and definitely be true to yourself. if you hav different opinions/views, by all means stay true to them. if you dont, youll hav a lot of regrets later in life. & you wont be able to “do it over”, b/c you only live once.
uh, wow…this must be the longest post ive ever made! but thanks ppl for listening. ive nvr been able to tell this to anyone! im glad that this is a place where we are able to give each other real support.

You had a bad day, you takin one down,you sing a sad song just to turn it around, you say you don’t know, you say me don’t lie, you work in a smile and you go for a ride, you had a bad day, the camera don’t lie, you calm me back down and you really don’t mind, you had a bad day, you had a bad day.
does that describe it?

Awww. *hugs* We love you copper bigfoot!!!
wow…and i thought i was hated in 7th grade. I mean i was…but people pretty much just left me alone, which was to my preference.
But i’ve never really been bullied or anything, and i’ve always had racheal and jen, or other friends, if nobody else.
I wish people would just be nice to people…
*sigh*

*hugs Copper* I’m sorry! people are so intolerant!
Jeez, people can be so cruel. Don’t listen to what they have to say, because you show on this blog that you are a creative, interesting person, they just need to hate some one. Hey, skools almost out and you always have your super cool museblog, right? *virtual choklit*
Wow, emogrl. That sounds horrid…what idiots. I’m glad you came through it as such a cool person… a lot of people I know whould have just turned into mean, hateful rocks. Meditation sounds like a good idea. Nice job opening up about it.

If you think my NEW School is bad, I should tell you about my OLD school…
They used to like me… before I went away for 7 months. Now I’m at the bottom of the pecking order, behind RY, who hardly ever talks. Z is at the top of the pecking order, dispite his being, as he puts it “Vertically Challenged”. Buts its really about personailty.

I know how you feel Copper Bigfoot. It may not be that dramatic for me, but a lot of people hate me too, and I’m probably the least liked of my friends. Also, one of the “leaders” of my group seriously despises me… esample, she saves seats for everyone else at lunch but me. 7th grade sucks, as does GH, my school. It is killing my soul.
But this reminds me of something I need advice on: In Science, one of the non-liked “freaks” of our grade (seriously, has no friends and NO clue on how to survive. Also talks with a speech defect so you can hardly understand anything she says) sent me a note that read “I need a friend. Will you be my friend?” Any advice on what to say? This thread is really making me want to say yes.

We need to make a school of only worldly, intelligent, compassionate and insane people like us. Then we’ll be happy.

As the chix0r who has been at the very, very bottom of the pecking order for most of my life, I can say I sympathize. I have been shoved into lockers, duckponds, shelves, bins, trash cans, almost a garbage compactor and one pile of leaves. Someone even held my hand inside a moving food processor and threatened me. Luckily, my good mate N, who is big and strong and overprotective, came running in and helped me escape. No, not a good moment in my book. I would give many things to be able to change schools. Don’t worry, Coppy (may I call you that?). You rock our respective socks.
Take my advice and sympathy. I won’t need it. Don’t worry about the social situation or your rep. Just keep your head down and avoid talking about it. You need to catch up with your schoolwork, right? If you want help with that (I will help you with German, English, and French, and science, and I know people here are into maths) let us know, and we will hasten to the ballistas. Don’t bring Z up-no one will ask, no one has to know. And rally your support system. Namely, us.
Incidentally, the worst day of my life was the day involving several muscular people holding me up in front of a chopping, moving machine.
WAN BA TAI! GOOOOOOOO COPPY!

Woah. And I thought the people at my skool had problems. No offense intended. It’s horrible that people would act like that.
I don’t have a very good social life at skool either, but at least people have tried to reach out to me…

(21) That’s a difficult situation. I’ve been in ones like that before. It’s hard, because you want to be nice and help some one you need, but it also means social sucide for you. I’d say, if you don’t feel happy with your group, you might as well try. She might turn out to be really cool- who knows? On the other hand, it’s perfectly understandable to just be nice but remain distant at the same time.
Actually, reading this blog makes me realise how lucky I in my school. I’m certainly not popular, but the nice thing about the hierarchy in my grade is that the bottom isn’t that far below the top. There are really unpopular people, and some of them get picked on really badly, but it’s a small enough system that they can’t be beaten up on without others being called on it. I’m sort of in the rankless group. It consists of the girls who have lots of friends and who aren’t nerds but aren’t popular either. I don’t really relate to any of them but it’s the only place that I can remotely fit into.

I’ve had school issues too. In 5th grade, I was really sick – I had to leave half days because I was so sick, and people were really mean to me and said I had some sort of contagious disease. But now, there are only 10 kids in my grade, so….

Wow. That really really sucks. Coming from a tiny K-8 where everybody’s known everybody else since kindergarten and the ‘social pecking order’ is basically each group considering themselves on top of the others, I can’t offer up much advice. Just… keep swimming, I guess. Keep your head held as high as you would wish it to be held, try to catch up on the work you missed (I’ll help with stuff I know), and remember that your MB friends are always here to both brighten your day and bring a little banana cream in it.
Say, that’s not a bad slogan. Muse: We’re here to bring a little sunshine banana cream into your day.

#22: i think that was part of the plan for the muse academy. *sigh* but that shall exist only in our minds for now.
yeah, here is my situation friendwise:
i have:
several enemies who i simply try to avoid all contact w/
lots of ppl i know but cant trust
about 30 fair weather friends who i say i trust but dont, relly
2 very good friends who i am incredibly thankful for, and i am very near trusting.

Ven (21),
I’m an adult and thus an inherently untrustworthy source of advice, so I won’t tell you to commit yourself to a friendship. But the girl sounds desperate. It would probably mean a lot to her if someone would just talk to her.
0
0
21-I would say yes. There’ve been people that were desperate for friends that i hung out with (at camps and suchlike, where nobody knows anybody and not everybody makes friends so easily. Happens a lot) and a lot of times they turn out to be really fun for me too! Sometimes not so much, but y’know. Helps them out if nothing else.

I’m almost at the top of the pecking order. Alot of people like me, I think (im being very modest) because I was in the school play, always get solos in the concerts, and because of my prty red hair. The thing is, I COULD hang out with the popular ppl, noone would care, I just CHOOSE to hang out with the outcasts because thats where most of my friends are. Man, I really need to learn how to make itallics.
Well, today I had a horrible day at school. Here are thy 3 reasons.
1. There was a sub ALL DAY.
2. My allergies just started kicking in.
3. It was raining and cold.
0
0
21- I would be friendly to her, have conversations with her at school chat. It can be very difficult to make such decisions
as a response to everyone’s bullying stories. Wow. I feel lucky now. The worst that happened to me was elementary school. I had friends. (8 or so) I was constantly teased by the “popular” crowd for crying which of course made me cry more. One time in sixth grade some kid dared some other kid to stick his shirt in the toilet and wear it (what a stupid think to do) the kid who had been dared decided to rub the now soaking shirt down my arm. By that time though, I had learned that all they were searching for is a reaction so I just stood there. However we all kind of knew that he had stuck it in the sink and not the toilet Now in highschool there isn’t really much of a pecking order, fortunately. People may not be as nice as they should be, but mainly they treat others fine. My school is seperated into IB (higher level classes) and non-IB. In IB, there are the way make-up-y people, the not as much make-up-y people and then the group I hang out with. All of these groups are similar popularity. Most groups are the same popularity just different types.
I really hope that it gets better everyone! Sometimes all they are searching for is a reaction. Don’t react and get hysterical. If it isn’t life threatining or about to injure you, ignore it.

i think a lot of ppl hang out w/ me b/c they feel sorry for me (which doesnt give me the greatest feeling)…they might not even do that if i didnt give them the answers to stuff in class.
ok, another problem: when someone asks to copy my work, i always say yes.
is this the right thing to do? if not, then what is the right thing?
0
0
#40 you shouldn’t let them totally copy off your work. you could like help them figure it out themselves but not give the answer straight out. but u are probobly like everyone else (including me) who does not want to waste their time helping ppl who can’t do their own work, in which case u should…. run away… and pie them with dirty sock pies.
i know this girl who always cheats off me and then tells ppl ive been cheating off her paper. ugh she’s annoying. and then she and this other girl plot against me… it’s very scary. and today i just relized this girl i’ve like known since forever doesn’t like me at all…. i guess she doesn’t hate me, but like me she does not. ah well…. copper bigfoot i sympathise….
whoah this is like the longest thing i’ve written on here, besides my poems. i normally don’t want to write really long comments cuz other ppl will find them to long and wont read them….

I’m glad you wrote that, book_addict. I wish I’d thought of pieing people with dirty sock pies back in junior high and high school when people asked to copy off me.

well, me, as a un-socialized homeschooler i do not have many good friends… there’s tons of people i know and like, but i’m really shy and reserved i don’t really reach out to them and make an effort to be their friend. i have around 3 good friends, but one i’m kinda drifting away from… i guess i don’t really see everyone every day or make an effort to see them otherwise and they think i don’t want them as a friend. i have friends both popular and kinda nerdy, but they’re not very close… i don’t really have any friends i could tell them about a tough situation and them listen and understand… well, i could, but the friendships i have are friendly and not personal…. well, i have like this split personality. i’m like half this quiet kid who doesn’t really talk and sits there looking uncomfortable and is a perfectionist, and theres the other half thats a slob, is really hyper and acts really dumb. when i’m the quiet me, nobody wants to make an effort to hang out with me cuz they think i don’t like them. when i’m the other half, everyone thinks i’m an idiot and a jerk and don’t want to hang out with me. theres only two friends who’ve seen just a balance of the two, and their really popular and are kindof giving me the cold shoulder right now…. anywayses thats enough ranting for now. im probobly not even making sense……

About copying and suchlike-i don’t let people copy off me unless i forsee a need to get “help” *cough* from them in the future. (ok, i’ll admit it-i completely bs my hw a lot…*is ashamed* ) Once courtdogg (courtney) and i did our math hw in seven minutes. Twelve moderately difficult, multi-step problems. Only 3 were in the back, and they didn’t really count because we still had to draw the pics and stuff, and that’s the biggest part. After that it takes about 2 secs. Anyway, we switched off, me, her, me, her doing problems and finished just in time. It was pretty amazing…
And of course horrible and bad and a naughty thing to do. Don’t do that. Ever. *slaps self* Bad Ebeth! Bad!

I think the worst thing you can do is ignore teasing. It’s stupid. And it goes against one’s nature.
“Everyone sa stand up to bulies they will run away but do not beleve it some of them stand quite still and where ar you then i will tell you you are in the duck pond and it is joly freezing.”
That should do it. Don’t leave, Coppy. We ♥ you too much.

49- can’t you see that she had a truly horrible day and respect it? I can see why you are leaving Copper Bigfoot. I am staying to try to reform the Muse blog. TN at least read what is being said before you put your judgements down. Copper Bigfoot does not need anymore cruelty right now.

66) Here’s what happened Otz:
CB had a bad day.
She requested a thread to rant about it on and the GAPA granted it.
She ranted.
We sympathized,and emogrl and some others shared their own similar experiences.
Somebody made a slightly unkind and sarcastic comment about the fact that she got her own thread for it.
(who we forgive, but would like to request that they think before posting that knid of thing, please, if you are reading this)
CB got fed up and wanted to leave the museblog.
We don’t want her to. I don’t think is going to.
Yes, it’s rather complicated, I know.

Copper, please don’t leave! We need you.
There’s this extremely popular guy who is always not doing his homework and getting in trouble. He will ask anyone for the homework answers and they will give them to him because they hope to become more popular. This kid has even tried this on me. “[my name], you’re my best friend…” The last time he did that, I threw a Spanish/English dictionary at him.

My life is totally screwed. BEAT THAT!
Well, I feel for ya, ‘mate. Thing about our lives that’s different is that the reason people hate me is in large part because of my “friends”, who created a bad image for me and made me look like a complete and total moron. This they did by, through the years, orchestrating a grand plot and using my crush as a “tool”. They’ve even degraded me mentally to an extent. So now I’m struggling to make friends and to put up with my many enemies.
I really hate them.

Yes, Phoebe’s back.
Just for a post, to sympathize with Copper Bigfoot.
I’ve never really been bullied, because in 1st – 3rd grade, I was admired. No idea why, but I was. In 4th, no one bothered me, because I was just a weensy 4th year, and in 5th, there were a group of popular kids everyone followed around. I’m fairly sure I did a bit of following in 4th-5th myself, but I don’t have a very strong memory.
Now I’m a 6th grader. I don’t get bullied, but there’s this group of girls, and they bully just about everyone. I think it’s come to the point in which all the little th graders are afraid to cross their path, because they don’t want to become even more insignificant. The thing is, I’ve got a friend. She’s from a different country, because she tranferred in 3rd grade, and she stands out as much as it’s possible to do. She’s very intelligent, has a great sense of humor, and has her own, wacky way of doing things. All the popular kids are always trying to put her down about whatever they can- the way she dresses, the way she talks, even the way she laughs. The thing is, she doesn’t care. She knows she’s got friends. So, Copper Bigfoot, just remember, you’ve got great friends right here on the MB.
Also, I’d like to say I’m happy we’ve still got some of the Gaboomba-ers here! I heard they’d all been chased away by angry bloggers!

…and i thought third grade stunk.
-condensed version
– This girl + friends chased me and W around saying we were in love… The entire clase cought on and chased us around. for the entire school year. And the BEST part is, that at the end of the year, the leader told us it was all a JOKE! We hated them and they hated us in fourth grade. fun -shakes haed sadly-
So I offer hugs, choklit, blueberry muffins, and really cool computer programs that animate tetrihedron like shaapes for a screensaver…
And Copper Bigfoot,
Nice name!

Why don’t you traipse over to the monthly thread and tell us what you’ve been up to lately?

..Oh, and a note. I think the reason I was never bullied in 1st-3rd grade was the fact that I was the weird short kid, but the weird short kid who would beat you up if you even tried bullying her. Heh.

80- My crazy Spanish teacher would probably let us, but I would never have lunch in his room…I might be able to eat in the PJAS people’s rooms, though…….but they usually smell like whatever’s being dissected at the time. Anyway, only one more class day of school and then exams and the W00T SUMMER!

Yeah, I understand. I’m not really low at scholl or anything and I’m lucky enough to have some good friends, but most of the boys at my school have decided I’m most fun to tease. Sometimes I fell so relived I’m going to Δ. That’s my shorthand for the school’s alternitive program. It’s not higher ot lower than the regular high school, just smaller. And I’ve heard people are nicer there.
This is a long, long rant, so Set up a cousion and some water.
I’ll begin with a song, a song I really wish would come true…
Its all right
And its comin along
We gotta get right back where we started from
Love is good, love is strong
We gotta get right back where we started from
Now, this isn’t about love…. OK, it is partially. About 1/4. Rather, it is about reputation and finding your place in the social ladder
In order to tell my story while protecting the indentitys of my friends and schools :-X, I have to use this symbol code….
CO2: My old school. My home school district
CO: My hometown
S: My new school, outside of my hometown
RO: The town my school is in
RY: My male friend in my grade
K: My female friend in my grade
Z: My Crush :-[
BE: My male friend in the grade above me
BR: My (9 months older) cousin, who I am very protective of >:(
P: The program that I’m in
It all started when I was 8 and half months old: I met the love of my life, Z
Fast forward a decade and a few years…
I’m in CO2. Everybody hates me. I’m the school omega: The scapegoat. When sdomeone has a problem (Or a need to molest someone) they take it out on me. They even dystoryed my holy books.
Decideing that CO2 was too mcuh for me, they sent me to S, Zs school. I was so excited I could barely breathe.
However, I also have multiple mental dissabilites, and couldn’t remmeber anyones name at the new school. Z was supposed to show me around, but didn’t.
In gym, I met a friend, K. She didn’t show me around either, but atleast she talked to and understood me. She quickyl became the only person outs the P that I talked to.
I get sick for 7 months. They send me back to S, but I don’t go into the mainsteam classes. Rather, I stay in the P room. Theres also a chance of being held back, which means being away from Z.
Today was colonial day. I saw the majority of the school for the first time. they all said, “Eeew, its :)” or ”
Move over”. The only one nice to me was Z, and he usually isn’t unless he iniciates the conversation. Meanwhile, Z was surrond by guys doing things such as rubbing under his chin. Just the thought that there might be rumours about me and him all over the school makes me want to go to another school (again).
RY then expalined to me that everybody hates me now thats I’ve left, they’ve been TOO curious, and now they’re afriad of me. In other words, S is another CO2.
Yet another middle school. Yet another bunch of young adolescents. I’ve always hated people my age, but never THIS much.
Hoepfully next year I’ll get to know some more people. But after this, it seems impossible.
Its all right
And its comin along
We gotta get right back where we started from
Love is good, love is strong
We gotta get right back where we started from
huh?
what happened?
I don’t really get it.
what was so bad?
Basically, my reputtation at school is trashed
Eh? Say that again slowly
At my old school, everybody hated me
I was sent to a new school, my crushes school
I was away for 7 months cause I was sick
Now that I’m back, everyobdy hates me
*hug* I know what you mean. Everyone hated me and, like two of my friends, but mainly me, in my olde school because we got these girls expelled. For having votka (sp?) in school. They were idiots, and they disturbed the peace. I’ve heard they still laugh at me there.
In the school before that, I was the crazy short freak who was a year younger than the majority of rest of her grade. It was sometimes two years…Anyway, I had 4 friends and the rest of the school hated us.
I had no friends at all in fourth grade and was basically the class joke. AKA, the artsy blonde chick with the straight-leg jeans.
Now I’m in another new school, and have accepted the fact that I’m basically a loner. I’m terribly shy.
Ok, done whining.
MB friends pwn.
Anyway, just say to yourself, “screw my rep, they won’t matter in a few years,” and be yourself.
But feel free to keep pressuring your parents to homeschool you. Heh heh heh…I do.
And, please don’t hate me for saying this, but if this Z character is only nice to you when he initiates the conversation and basically ignores you when he is with his friends, he isn’t worth it. You can do better.
Not that I’m saying that you should just forget him; I know that doesn’t just happen.
Anyway, *hug*.
poor
you
Aw……….
*gives big hug to everyone with a bad day*
I spent about a year in sixth and seventh grades at the bottom of the pecking order. It was awful and seemed to go on forever. The worst part was the bullying; I wouldn’t have minded so much just being left alone.
In retrospect, there must have been things I could have done to make myself a less tempting target. Maybe if I’d just asked them to leave me alone… But it is a tough position to be in, no question about it.
School is almost out, though, isn’t it? Will you have the summer off? Maybe things will have improved by September.
I’ve moved a lot and I’ve never been the class joke. I have millions of friends and I’m the class brain which comes with the dreaded nicknames too. Nicknames such as Einstein and geniusgirl.
Anyways….
*hugs Copper Bigfoot and sends a box of virtual choklit to Copper*
I remember in Tennessee… I was bullied all the time by this one idiot girl who I really hate. I wasn’t the class joke though.
*makes soothing noises to Copper* I’m so sorry that your school is full of jerks! I had to move before seventh grade and before eighth grade, so I know what that’s like. I didn’t make friends in either grade until March! I don’t have a lot of friends at my school, because all the other smart kids are popular and most people think I’m a nerd, but I’m not hated. Just hang in there, Copper.
it looks like today has sucked for a lot of ppl!
im giving away free hugs for all
(ha, like anyone would want me hugging them)
#8: MB friends pwn? what a brilliant saying!
CB, ive definitely been there. never believe a single comment from any of those rude ppl. do not cave. thats what they want you to do. ppl such as them are not worth anyones time.
7th grade was the worst year of my life. it was so bad that ive nvr talked to anyone about it since (no joke!). if someone asks me about my experiences from 7th gr for wvr reason, i just tell them that i dont remember much.
i went to a very small catholic skool. there were four other ppl in my class. my 4 worst enemies. 3 guys: M, C, & T; and one girl: A. they hated me b/c: i couldnt play any sport whatsoever, i had ugly hair, & didnt wear the same clothes that everyone else wore. & they must have felt that they needed to convey their hatred to me every day, or else i would forget.
@ first, they just did annoying things, such as whip various playground balls @ me during recess. then they found out about my little problem…i cant look anyone directly in the eye, that is. (why this is, i seriously hav no idea) so every day in class, they would stare @ me. for hours. yes, i was a little freaked out by then. i think i cracked a little – + as soon as i started fighting back, A threatened to beat me up for being “mean” to M, C +T.
halfway through that year, we had this stupid little design-a-uniform contest, & i won 2nd place or something. they had entered the contest also, and man, were they furious. M went up to my teacher and actually spent about half an hour telling her why his design was absolutely ingenious, and why my design was nothing compared w/ his. well, of course the teacher didnt buy any of it.
that was when M decided that i relly had to go. so he asked his little sister to run up to me during recess, grab onto me, @ act like i was beating her up. this was kinda funny, b/c she was bigger than i was. after she started the act, M, C& T came over & beat me up, to look like they were defending Ms little sister.
they tried this a few times, but the teachers pretty much saw through it all, so i nvr got in trouble.
i tried telling my parents about it…& they got me a shrink & a perscription for adderall b/c they thought i had my head in the clouds & was trying to create drama. that was when i started meditating. (next time youre having an awful day, try meditation. it helps so much) soon i was addicted to it, & meditated for 3-4 hrs a day. that is probably why my “6th sense” is quite strong now. meditation is also the one thing that attracted me to my religion (wicca), & i dont know what id do now w/o my faith. i still meditate now, but not nearly as often.
well, its been almost 5 yrs since 7th grade, & now im needled b/c im “sad”, “depressed”, EMOtional, wvr. ppl usually make this conclusion after seeing that i wear something black every day, and b/c im a bit reserved (+ its all so ironic b/c i pretty much hav as much emotion as a brick). in other words, ppl are shallow, so dont take everyones opinion seriously. (see, this rant had a point after all!) and definitely be true to yourself. if you hav different opinions/views, by all means stay true to them. if you dont, youll hav a lot of regrets later in life. & you wont be able to “do it over”, b/c you only live once.
uh, wow…this must be the longest post ive ever made! but thanks ppl for listening. ive nvr been able to tell this to anyone! im glad that this is a place where we are able to give each other real support.
You had a bad day, you takin one down,you sing a sad song just to turn it around, you say you don’t know, you say me don’t lie, you work in a smile and you go for a ride, you had a bad day, the camera don’t lie, you calm me back down and you really don’t mind, you had a bad day, you had a bad day.
does that describe it?
Awww. *hugs* We love you copper bigfoot!!!
wow…and i thought i was hated in 7th grade. I mean i was…but people pretty much just left me alone, which was to my preference.
But i’ve never really been bullied or anything, and i’ve always had racheal and jen, or other friends, if nobody else.
I wish people would just be nice to people…
*sigh*
*hugs Copper* I’m sorry! people are so intolerant!
Jeez, people can be so cruel. Don’t listen to what they have to say, because you show on this blog that you are a creative, interesting person, they just need to hate some one. Hey, skools almost out and you always have your super cool museblog, right? *virtual choklit*
Wow, emogrl. That sounds horrid…what idiots. I’m glad you came through it as such a cool person… a lot of people I know whould have just turned into mean, hateful rocks. Meditation sounds like a good idea. Nice job opening up about it.
man, last year my best friend at school moved away. Now I only have 1 really good friend, and she is sort of deserting me for this other girl I don’t really like. Does anybody fell my pain?
If you think my NEW School is bad, I should tell you about my OLD school…
They used to like me… before I went away for 7 months. Now I’m at the bottom of the pecking order, behind RY, who hardly ever talks. Z is at the top of the pecking order, dispite his being, as he puts it “Vertically Challenged”. Buts its really about personailty.
I know how you feel Copper Bigfoot. It may not be that dramatic for me, but a lot of people hate me too, and I’m probably the least liked of my friends. Also, one of the “leaders” of my group seriously despises me… esample, she saves seats for everyone else at lunch but me. 7th grade sucks, as does GH, my school. It is killing my soul.
But this reminds me of something I need advice on: In Science, one of the non-liked “freaks” of our grade (seriously, has no friends and NO clue on how to survive. Also talks with a speech defect so you can hardly understand anything she says) sent me a note that read “I need a friend. Will you be my friend?” Any advice on what to say? This thread is really making me want to say yes.
We need to make a school of only worldly, intelligent, compassionate and insane people like us. Then we’ll be happy.
As the chix0r who has been at the very, very bottom of the pecking order for most of my life, I can say I sympathize. I have been shoved into lockers, duckponds, shelves, bins, trash cans, almost a garbage compactor and one pile of leaves. Someone even held my hand inside a moving food processor and threatened me. Luckily, my good mate N, who is big and strong and overprotective, came running in and helped me escape. No, not a good moment in my book. I would give many things to be able to change schools. Don’t worry, Coppy (may I call you that?). You rock our respective socks.
Take my advice and sympathy. I won’t need it. Don’t worry about the social situation or your rep. Just keep your head down and avoid talking about it. You need to catch up with your schoolwork, right? If you want help with that (I will help you with German, English, and French, and science, and I know people here are into maths) let us know, and we will hasten to the ballistas. Don’t bring Z up-no one will ask, no one has to know. And rally your support system. Namely, us.
Incidentally, the worst day of my life was the day involving several muscular people holding me up in front of a chopping, moving machine.
WAN BA TAI! GOOOOOOOO COPPY!
YAY! MB support group!
21- Yes.
Woah. And I thought the people at my skool had problems. No offense intended. It’s horrible that people would act like that.
I don’t have a very good social life at skool either, but at least people have tried to reach out to me…
(21) That’s a difficult situation. I’ve been in ones like that before. It’s hard, because you want to be nice and help some one you need, but it also means social sucide for you. I’d say, if you don’t feel happy with your group, you might as well try. She might turn out to be really cool- who knows? On the other hand, it’s perfectly understandable to just be nice but remain distant at the same time.
Actually, reading this blog makes me realise how lucky I in my school. I’m certainly not popular, but the nice thing about the hierarchy in my grade is that the bottom isn’t that far below the top. There are really unpopular people, and some of them get picked on really badly, but it’s a small enough system that they can’t be beaten up on without others being called on it. I’m sort of in the rankless group. It consists of the girls who have lots of friends and who aren’t nerds but aren’t popular either. I don’t really relate to any of them but it’s the only place that I can remotely fit into.
I’ve had school issues too. In 5th grade, I was really sick – I had to leave half days because I was so sick, and people were really mean to me and said I had some sort of contagious disease. But now, there are only 10 kids in my grade, so….
Wow. That really really sucks. Coming from a tiny K-8 where everybody’s known everybody else since kindergarten and the ‘social pecking order’ is basically each group considering themselves on top of the others, I can’t offer up much advice. Just… keep swimming, I guess. Keep your head held as high as you would wish it to be held, try to catch up on the work you missed (I’ll help with stuff I know), and remember that your MB friends are always here to both brighten your day and bring a little banana cream in it.
Say, that’s not a bad slogan. Muse: We’re here to bring a little
sunshinebanana cream into your day.#22: i think that was part of the plan for the muse academy. *sigh* but that shall exist only in our minds for now.
yeah, here is my situation friendwise:
i have:
several enemies who i simply try to avoid all contact w/
lots of ppl i know but cant trust
about 30 fair weather friends who i say i trust but dont, relly
2 very good friends who i am incredibly thankful for, and i am very near trusting.
its Ok, copper Bigfoot. I once almost accedentally removed my top in front of my entire fifth grade class. I thought I would die.
do you trust us?
you don’t have to answer that.
(it may be a bit much to ask, seeing as you’ve never met us).
Ven (21),
I’m an adult and thus an inherently untrustworthy source of advice, so I won’t tell you to commit yourself to a friendship. But the girl sounds desperate. It would probably mean a lot to her if someone would just talk to her.
21-I would say yes. There’ve been people that were desperate for friends that i hung out with (at camps and suchlike, where nobody knows anybody and not everybody makes friends so easily. Happens a lot) and a lot of times they turn out to be really fun for me too! Sometimes not so much, but y’know. Helps them out if nothing else.
my school is really small too. It’s K-8 and we have about 260 people….10 girls in our grade.
28- DUDE. 10 kids in da whole grade?!! kewl.
21- theres a girl like that at my skool, she loks normal and conforms and stuff, but for some odd reason she just SEEMS weird and everybody ignores her. Odd.
I’m almost at the top of the pecking order. Alot of people like me, I think (im being very modest) because I was in the school play, always get solos in the concerts, and because of my prty red hair. The thing is, I COULD hang out with the popular ppl, noone would care, I just CHOOSE to hang out with the outcasts because thats where most of my friends are. Man, I really need to learn how to make itallics.
Well, today I had a horrible day at school. Here are thy 3 reasons.
1. There was a sub ALL DAY.
2. My allergies just started kicking in.
3. It was raining and cold.
21- I would be friendly to her, have conversations with her at school chat. It can be very difficult to make such decisions
as a response to everyone’s bullying stories. Wow. I feel lucky now. The worst that happened to me was elementary school. I had friends. (8 or so) I was constantly teased by the “popular” crowd for crying which of course made me cry more. One time in sixth grade some kid dared some other kid to stick his shirt in the toilet and wear it (what a stupid think to do) the kid who had been dared decided to rub the now soaking shirt down my arm. By that time though, I had learned that all they were searching for is a reaction so I just stood there. However we all kind of knew that he had stuck it in the sink and not the toilet Now in highschool there isn’t really much of a pecking order, fortunately. People may not be as nice as they should be, but mainly they treat others fine. My school is seperated into IB (higher level classes) and non-IB. In IB, there are the way make-up-y people, the not as much make-up-y people and then the group I hang out with. All of these groups are similar popularity. Most groups are the same popularity just different types.
I really hope that it gets better everyone! Sometimes all they are searching for is a reaction. Don’t react and get hysterical. If it isn’t life threatining or about to injure you, ignore it.
i think a lot of ppl hang out w/ me b/c they feel sorry for me (which doesnt give me the greatest feeling)…they might not even do that if i didnt give them the answers to stuff in class.
ok, another problem: when someone asks to copy my work, i always say yes.
is this the right thing to do? if not, then what is the right thing?
#40 you shouldn’t let them totally copy off your work. you could like help them figure it out themselves but not give the answer straight out. but u are probobly like everyone else (including me) who does not want to waste their time helping ppl who can’t do their own work, in which case u should…. run away… and pie them with dirty sock pies.
i know this girl who always cheats off me and then tells ppl ive been cheating off her paper. ugh she’s annoying. and then she and this other girl plot against me… it’s very scary. and today i just relized this girl i’ve like known since forever doesn’t like me at all…. i guess she doesn’t hate me, but like me she does not. ah well…. copper bigfoot i sympathise….
whoah this is like the longest thing i’ve written on here, besides my poems. i normally don’t want to write really long comments cuz other ppl will find them to long and wont read them….
I’m glad you wrote that, book_addict. I wish I’d thought of pieing people with dirty sock pies back in junior high and high school when people asked to copy off me.
well, me, as a un-socialized homeschooler i do not have many good friends… there’s tons of people i know and like, but i’m really shy and reserved i don’t really reach out to them and make an effort to be their friend. i have around 3 good friends, but one i’m kinda drifting away from… i guess i don’t really see everyone every day or make an effort to see them otherwise and they think i don’t want them as a friend. i have friends both popular and kinda nerdy, but they’re not very close… i don’t really have any friends i could tell them about a tough situation and them listen and understand… well, i could, but the friendships i have are friendly and not personal…. well, i have like this split personality. i’m like half this quiet kid who doesn’t really talk and sits there looking uncomfortable and is a perfectionist, and theres the other half thats a slob, is really hyper and acts really dumb. when i’m the quiet me, nobody wants to make an effort to hang out with me cuz they think i don’t like them. when i’m the other half, everyone thinks i’m an idiot and a jerk and don’t want to hang out with me. theres only two friends who’ve seen just a balance of the two, and their really popular and are kindof giving me the cold shoulder right now…. anywayses thats enough ranting for now. im probobly not even making sense……
whoah i just read all that i wrote, and i realized how much i say like!! ugh… it’s all those preppy horse peoples fault…
thats sad
wait. but you read muse. how do you have mental disabilities? you sounded fine in that whole explanation.
#41: ooh *gets brilliant idea* you could just give her the wrong answers for everything, + then be like “ha!”
+ maybe ill try that as well
im definitely not shy, but i am reserved around ppls i dont know very well. im random + quirky around ppl i know better
MY UNCLES FIRST WIFES SECOND HUSBAND MADE SKOOL BOARD!
I’m soooo happy! Hes going to work to get things the way I need them! Whoot! 
b_a (44),
I don’t think you need to be afraid of long posts. They can be the most interesting ones.
aaawww, how sad. someone had a bad day. oh yes, that’s sure something worthy of having a thread all to itself. really, i’m crying.
Where did that come from, TN? Would you like a thread? It’s easy for us to do.
47-Kewl! My mom was on skool board. Twas pretty sweet. My friends and i helped with the campaign and suchlike. We pwned that election!!! Rach and i, oh man. We pwned.
XD lol
*hugs Copper Bigfoot* Yay for you!(in reponce to 47) My social status….Hmmm. Tricksy tricksy. There are 2 main popular groups at my school, and 1 group sorta likes me and the other sorta doesnt. I do not piticularly care for either. I am very luckey, and have 3 really close friends. Thats good enough for me. And don’t worry, we’re your friends!
About copying and suchlike-i don’t let people copy off me unless i forsee a need to get “help” *cough* from them in the future. (ok, i’ll admit it-i completely bs my hw a lot…*is ashamed*
) Once courtdogg (courtney) and i did our math hw in seven minutes. Twelve moderately difficult, multi-step problems. Only 3 were in the back, and they didn’t really count because we still had to draw the pics and stuff, and that’s the biggest part. After that it takes about 2 secs. Anyway, we switched off, me, her, me, her doing problems and finished just in time. It was pretty amazing…
And of course horrible and bad and a naughty thing to do. Don’t do that. Ever. *slaps self* Bad Ebeth! Bad!
Thats it. After that comment, I’m leaving Museblog.
Which comment? Mine?
Why?
I think the worst thing you can do is ignore teasing. It’s stupid. And it goes against one’s nature.
“Everyone sa stand up to bulies they will run away but do not beleve it some of them stand quite still and where ar you then i will tell you you are in the duck pond and it is joly freezing.”
That should do it. Don’t leave, Coppy. We ♥ you too much.
49- can’t you see that she had a truly horrible day and respect it? I can see why you are leaving Copper Bigfoot. I am staying to try to reform the Muse blog. TN at least read what is being said before you put your judgements down. Copper Bigfoot does not need anymore cruelty right now.
(47)Theodwyn Notelven- *sock pie* We’re all musers here. Those are the comments we come here to escape, because musers are too cool to say mean things like that. Come on, please, have some respect. Save that kind of cruelty for…. nothing. Just don’t say it. What are you trying to accomplish by saying it? Did you even read her post?
(54) NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! DON’T GO! please don’t go! we need you CB! please dont go!
You’re right, SN, who would feed the pie animals?
oh pleeeeeeez dont go. Ive only been here a week and a half and two major ppls are leaving?!! tis cruelty to newbies!!
I’m not major, really. I’m probably the most major generation 6, however.
(59) exactly. They would pine. I mean look how upset they got when they heard you wanted to leave. *gestures towards bambi eyed pie animals*
49- if the threads MB has aren’t good enough for you, than don’t blog here. and don’t be mean to Copper. or anyone else, for that matter.
43- That sounds a lot like me…
CB DON”T LEAVE!
aww CB, don’t leave!!!
don’t be so mean, guys! lets be nice to the people on the blog and respect their opinions, even if yours are very different. and if someone requests a thread it would be nice to let them have first post. just what i think….
hhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…………………………….
(Sound of Otzi pretending she has any idea what is going on)
66) Here’s what happened Otz:
CB had a bad day.
She requested a thread to rant about it on and the GAPA granted it.
She ranted.
We sympathized,and emogrl and some others shared their own similar experiences.
Somebody made a slightly unkind and sarcastic comment about the fact that she got her own thread for it.
(who we forgive, but would like to request that they think before posting that knid of thing, please, if you are reading this)
CB got fed up and wanted to leave the museblog.
We don’t want her to. I don’t think is going to.
Yes, it’s rather complicated, I know.
Copper, please don’t leave! We need you.
There’s this extremely popular guy who is always not doing his homework and getting in trouble. He will ask anyone for the homework answers and they will give them to him because they hope to become more popular. This kid has even tried this on me. “[my name], you’re my best friend…” The last time he did that, I threw a Spanish/English dictionary at him.
My life is totally screwed. BEAT THAT!
Well, I feel for ya, ‘mate. Thing about our lives that’s different is that the reason people hate me is in large part because of my “friends”, who created a bad image for me and made me look like a complete and total moron. This they did by, through the years, orchestrating a grand plot and using my crush as a “tool”. They’ve even degraded me mentally to an extent. So now I’m struggling to make friends and to put up with my many enemies.
I really hate them.
Oh, and don’t leave.
BTW, which comment was it that hurt you so?
68- Niiiiice. *applause*
70- 49.
Yes, Phoebe’s back.
Just for a post, to sympathize with Copper Bigfoot.
I’ve never really been bullied, because in 1st – 3rd grade, I was admired. No idea why, but I was. In 4th, no one bothered me, because I was just a weensy 4th year, and in 5th, there were a group of popular kids everyone followed around. I’m fairly sure I did a bit of following in 4th-5th myself, but I don’t have a very strong memory.
Now I’m a 6th grader. I don’t get bullied, but there’s this group of girls, and they bully just about everyone. I think it’s come to the point in which all the little th graders are afraid to cross their path, because they don’t want to become even more insignificant. The thing is, I’ve got a friend. She’s from a different country, because she tranferred in 3rd grade, and she stands out as much as it’s possible to do. She’s very intelligent, has a great sense of humor, and has her own, wacky way of doing things. All the popular kids are always trying to put her down about whatever they can- the way she dresses, the way she talks, even the way she laughs. The thing is, she doesn’t care. She knows she’s got friends. So, Copper Bigfoot, just remember, you’ve got great friends right here on the MB.
Also, I’d like to say I’m happy we’ve still got some of the Gaboomba-ers here! I heard they’d all been chased away by angry bloggers!
…and i thought third grade stunk.
-condensed version
– This girl + friends chased me and W around saying we were in love… The entire clase cought on and chased us around. for the entire school year. And the BEST part is, that at the end of the year, the leader told us it was all a JOKE! We hated them and they hated us in fourth grade. fun -shakes haed sadly-
So I offer hugs, choklit, blueberry muffins, and really cool computer programs that animate tetrihedron like shaapes for a screensaver…
And Copper Bigfoot,
Nice name!
Welcome back, Pheebs! Stay awhile. Would someone like to present Phoebe with a welcome-back pie?
Thanks, GAPA, I’ll do it myself. *Pies self* I probably won’t stay very long, though. Dern, these threads are crowded! Remember when 350 was an enormous number? *Sigh*
Why don’t you traipse over to the monthly thread and tell us what you’ve been up to lately?
..Oh, and a note. I think the reason I was never bullied in 1st-3rd grade was the fact that I was the weird short kid, but the weird short kid who would beat you up if you even tried bullying her. Heh.
*pies Phoebe* Welcome back!
copper, DON”T GO !! i have been on this blog for, about a day but i really liked what you wrote so DON”T GO!!!
hmm… no one has been on this thread for a while… advice, beg a teacher to let outcasts eat in their classroom durin lunch and IT IS AWSOME! some friends adn i do it and its sooo fun! you have to find a good teacher though…
80- My crazy Spanish teacher would probably let us, but I would never have lunch in his room…I might be able to eat in the PJAS people’s rooms, though…….but they usually smell like whatever’s being dissected at the time. Anyway, only one more class day of school and then exams and the W00T SUMMER!
well we found a good teacher adn he lets us no ANYTHING if we give him pudding! no joke. welll see if there are good teachers next year!
I really enjoyed my teachers. Hope their as good next year.
Yeah, I understand. I’m not really low at scholl or anything and I’m lucky enough to have some good friends, but most of the boys at my school have decided I’m most fun to tease. Sometimes I fell so relived I’m going to Δ. That’s my shorthand for the school’s alternitive program. It’s not higher ot lower than the regular high school, just smaller. And I’ve heard people are nicer there.
