Hello! I've been having some issues with some kids in school.
I must admit, I'm slightly nerdy. I love being in the school band, math is my favorite subject, and I've gotten nothing but As on every report card I've ever gotten.
I am very proud of these things, but it's given me an odd "reputation".
People don't pay any attention to me - I did a 2 week project with 3 others, and at the en of the 2 weeks one kid still didn't know my name!
There was this kid in science class yesterday who needed a pencil. He asked every student in the class - except me - for a pencil. (not like it would have mattered, because I didn't have a pencil)
I sit next to this kid in social studies, and we were cutting stuff out for a report. There weren't enough scissors to go around, so the kid I sit next to said I could use his after. Then another kid came up and asked if he could use the scissors next.
He said, "No, sorry, A*** is using them after me." The kid said, "A***? Who's A***?" and I have 4 classes with him.
I don't know what to do. There have been many more incidents like the above, and it's starting to drive me insane.
Does anybody have any suggestions?

I think that is kind of normal for school. Kids get in their own clicks and don't pay attention to anybody or anything else. I bet Bill Gates, or some famous people, had the same problem when he was in school.
Maybe when kids walk up to you say hi and their name and then they might make it a point to find out your name.

Sooner or later, you will be the one laughing at them when you get a great job and go to a good college. So just stay with your close friends and it won't even matter what they say.

Lol actuall it doesn't mean anyhting about the name forgetting thing
I have a really bad time with names if I haven't hung out with them for a couple of days
I forget most of my cousins names while at family parties and have to be introduced to them repeatedly

Pretty much I don't learn names unless they are my friends because we started playing together or I memorized their name because of a crush or needed to to run for class president

Findsomething in common with someone and talk, play, or just hang out with them
If you have fun with them then they will eventually learn your name

My girlfriend yells at me because I keep forgetting her last name
Its really funny, but I never say it or anything

I have a kid like that at my school and other people there pick on him like that. Its just how they think is cool which its not. You should be proud of your grades anyway. I mean if you are that smart than you have an advantage! When you grow up you will probably be a great business man or what ever you want to be because you are that smart. If those people are treating you like trash just look away because they are so stupid. They could have a great friend like you or have nothing.
