yeah- some people are really shallow on the outside sometimes- especially in school- but a lot of their coments are because of the pressures of the people they've stuck to. but you can overcome that by setting a better example and umcomforming to the public eye. be yourself and there are other people that have the same veiw so just stick up for yourself and others- i really believe in it also and i allow it to show and to not be intimited by my peirs. i lose weight for myself, my body's not comfortable the way it is- i have a wonderful boyfriend who loves me no matter how i look and i know that i can just be myself- so just surround yourse;f with those types of people...
