i think i lucked out i a way, i was never able to survive in public school, i had nothing but bad memories in public schools.
in the 3rd grade i think i got distracted while going back to the class room, and lost track of the line i followed. and i couldn't remember what room i was in, so i was stuck outside, no one came to get me. i young and scared and i was out there till my mom came to pick me up.
after that was either home-schooled or put in a private school. and when i graduated i was happy that i did.
but until i got into a private school, school was a nightmare. when we came here the new school we found was almost the same as the one in arizona, so i managed to adapt. took a little while though, one of the older girls in the class who would dye her hair a different color every week took me under her wing and did what she could to help me adapt. she was really nice and could tell i was scared she was an artist and drew me pictures to help me feel welcome.
eventually i made friends and was able to fit in a bit better. my only nit-pick about the school was they were against water gun fights which we had every year in arizona, they were alot of fun and helped us get along better.
i also had bought a supersoaker after my first one broke and i never got to use it, so it was like the 20 or 30 dollars went right down the drain.
