Dear Diary,
Today something happened at school that made me feel really weird. I always try to answer questions and help the teacher because I want to do well and be helpful. But during class today, when I raised my hand to answer, someone rolled their eyes and loudly called me Teacher’s Pet right in front of everyone. Some kids snickered and suddenly I felt like all eyes were on me not in a good way
It was like all the pride I usually feel about being helpful just disappeared. I started to wonder if maybe I Should stop raising my hand so much. Maybe it’s better to just keep quiet and avoid being teased. But at the same time, I don’t want to stop trying or pretend I don’t care. I like learning, and I like helping.
I don’t know what to do. Should I just ignore the teasing and keep being myself? Or should I try to blend in and not stand out so much?
I guess I’ll think about it more tomorrow.
