I don't know if you're aware, but I've been having some trouble at school lately. It seems like everyone is against me for no reason. I just want to tell you that it's not fair. My friends are all turning against me too. They say I'm weird and that I don't fit in with the rest of them. But I think they're wrong.
I've been trying hard to make new friends, but it's really difficult when everyone else seems so mean. And then there's this guy who keeps bothering me about how I dress. He says my clothes are weird and that I should stop wearing what I wear. That just makes me want to scream!
Anyway, I hope you can understand why I'm feeling so upset right now. Please don't forget about me or anything like that because I really need your support more than ever before.
