there was a time in my life when i wasn't popular and accepted by kids in school. i was made fun of with braces and kinky hair, and being from a multicultural family, etcetera... and it really hurts when you're that age, but later when you get something of your own or you get involved in activities like a sport, you begin to be accepted for what you do, and your personality and who you are, instead of your clothes and how you look and the name designer brands you have on.
