Hey, as a few of you know, I'm a senior in high school and it's my last day. I'm leaving for a class trip tomorrow. Pretty much got my life together, got my college choice ready.. Something happened today that got me a little bothered...

The Freshman at this school suck... Big time... All there is to it. But whatever, I just don't hang with them except for like one or two that are OK. The thing is, I help with a class called Learning Lab. What I do is I make sure kids are studying and I tutor.. Pretty smooth job. That's only a little of what I do but nothing more matters.

I'm sitting at a table with a freshman who has nothing to say to me except for how stupid I am and how he wants to beat me up and kill me... I mean. Yeah. Whatever. But he won't stop and he's calling me all these inferior names and telling me how stupid I am because we don't listen to the same music when I said we did cause we both like rock... Whatever.. Why is it a big deal, you know? He pushed my buttons, and yes... I retorted. I wish I hadn't.. And I know he's really just immature and I should have ignored him... What do you guys think about this... not only that but some random Korean came up to me saying he wanted to kill me... What in the world did I do?? Yeah.. It hurts when people do this and I try to turn the other cheek... but this really baffles me.

Advice? Thanks.

There's verbal abuse and there are threats. These are threats. Please tell your advisor, the principal, a teacher. Someone anyone you trust. Make them hear you! You do not need or deserve this treatment. I believe the freshmen are behaving this way because no one has ever let them know it's unacceptable.
I know that you may be scared to tell, but you are leaving and getting on with your future. These freshmen are just starting to make choices that will affect their future.
Good luck to you and stay strong. The futue so bright you have to wear shades!

I really can't help but wonder what in the world these parents are letting them do
