Anyway, I'm talking to jade (my only actual friend in college so far becasue the guys dont like me) telling her that I will eventually see "the mighty boosh" and then we can share jokes. When one guy pipes up.

"Cant you at least let her get a word in? Shes reduced to nodding and buy now its just a nervous twitch"

There was more, but I lose focus and everything blurs in these kind of situations, I rummaged around in my bad so I didnt have to look at anyone. I remember one guy saying "MEG!" over and over while I tried to ignore them all. Thats the nickname theve given me becasue they think I'm like Meg from Family guy. I took out my gloves and bus ticket for something to do and the first guy slit it across the table towards him. I wasnt in the mood for any crap and just said "Stop being a t*t and give me it back" an he did.

More stuff I can't remember, did it even happen in that order?. And I just remember him saying "Shes impervious to ridicule"

That hurt.

I don't know how to fix this.
I sorry that happened to you Swany *hugs*

I myself just heard some pretty mean lies about me @ work the other day. Some girl got her nose out of joint because she didn't know a bunch of us other gals were going out for dinner before coming back to my house for a party. We told her the next day & I apologized that no one told her the day before and she said it was cool...now she's telling people @ work that the reason I've lost 2 babies is because I party too much and I'm drunk all the time. What a tool. Talk about hitting below the belt...I had to take some pretty deep breaths to avoid punching her up the bracket, but I eventually calmed down. I talked to another girl about and she said don't let it get to you...easier said than done, but good advice
I hope they eventually get bored and leave you alone. Katie's advice is perfect...I shall follow it myself

during the entire lunch time i had been considering this thing.perhaps i shoulda beg mother for one...XPPPPPPP

and tell you,i found a co woker of mine who is in charge of coloring on PC,he is a rightdown ego narcosist!XDDDD
he got the photo of his as his wallpaper,and everytime he has a break for himself out of work,you can tell he is incurablely obssessed with himself staring at his own photo on the screen,XDDDDDDDDDD,and should he's in the mood he shell blow several kisses at himself,XDDDDDDDD,that's crazy!LOL
he is not bad,though,when i first got there,he treat me with chutties.

Thanks, JameO...

It's just, I get so frustrated, is all! I'm tired of ruining days and whatnot.

But I guess I can't really complain. My friend laid there and held me and wrapped me in blankies and the such. So... I suppose I really am lucky.

I was first on college today and the lecturer asked me if the guys were bothering me. Apparently all the lecturers have noticed.

Great.

Anyhoo, I just thought "bugger it" and told him. Last time I was bullied I ignored it and it got worse. Not letting that happen again.

He pretty much hit the nail on the head though, I was ignoring them at the time but getting angry/upset at home.

Apparently I handled it very maturely though (lol ego boost for the most childish girl in Scotland) He actually asked me my age for that (weird)

But yeah, its just me and Jade isnt being bothered. Probably just cause I'm odd, loud and happy. Whatevs.

He had to leave early for a meeting though. So I don't know if hes going to speak to the guys or the other lecturers first.

I used to get very upset at home after stuff like that happened to me....but, you have to let it out somewhere or it will damage you. I still stick to "Better to not let on to them that they hurt you" attitudes. (I still get upset privately when someone hurts me, but I'll be damned if I show it to them)

You did handle it maturely. I would take it a compliment that the lecturer asked your age....cause those guys definitely show you that some your age are not ready to be grown ups yet

I wrote a huge essay of my experiences in response to this but I couldn't get the words I wanted to say out in the correct order.
And after reading over it it was a complete mess of a rant so i thought I'd spare everyone the insanity by deleting it.

So anyway................. trying to keep this very short, the point I was trying to make is that people like those guys you mentioned, also commonly known as "wankers", generally get their just desserts after they leave school.
This is because once they get into the real world they soon discover that being an arrogant jerk who tries to dominate over others by putting them down does not work.

And in the long run, these wankers will find themselves with very few friends because adults don't tolerate the crap that wankers spit at them or at others. And the few friends that these wankers do eventually have will generally be like-minded people, also known as "other wankers" and in accumulation wankers get nowhere in life because all they do is jerk around.

.... just giving you something to look forward to.

I found it funny that "wankers" is the word I use as well.

I was staying at my friends last night and telling them about it. Sam said its prabably bacasue I'm extroverte and people dont know how to react so they lash out. 'Casue I'm not exactly a stranger to verbal bullying.

I've got someting of a bigger problem though, I'll jut say "Ladies troubles" andn I'm thinking that I really should see my doctor or nurse, but I'm terrified that they'll wnat to take blood and I'll freak if they do. I'm not exactly phobic about blood. But larger amounts than a small paper cut or nosebleed freak me out and I start to scream.

So I'm pretty much willing to let that get in the way of my health.

i'v been thinking that boss is not a human,actually.no kidding,have you ever seen any human being who never has lunch but still keeps that energy managing the entire department of design?i'm serious,he never has his lunch.as soon as we all got up from our seats and moved outward,he was on his seat,and as we babbled about what we shell eat,he arranged his files,he seems never get touched by food,when it's the time we all gotta be hungry as shell.you may think that i'm talking nonsense,living animals all shell get hungry,and how can my boss be not?how can my boss be not a human being?i don't know how to explain,but i really doubt that.because i'v never seen him having any lunch yet, and i asked him once when other guys not around,why he wouldn't go and have some lunch,he just told me that some guy would bring him some back,but it just never happend.and this is the creepest thing among all.why would he lie about lunch?does he not want others know that he does not/can not/need not have lunch???that's a crazy guess i know,but,hey,everything is possible.like that day,when several co workers of mine and i were chitchating after lunch,one of an aunt suddenly called me a handsome,i'm not self abased i tell you,but i just know i donot look very distinctive,it's a common sense too.but she still call me that way,and she was not asking me for something,i don't remeber how we came at the topic of handsomes,i mean,should you got some aunts in your chitchat group...sooner or later you would come up that kinda of topic.and there she went,she began commenting on the lookings of all the guys,including boss,in our department.she said they are all handsomes.she was dreaming.obviously.so
the thing is:when people call you a handsome/beauty,you really gotta doubt it.and back to my premitive topic,you can see everything is possible,even some strange aunt calls me a handsome.i shell keep observing boss's behaviors,i shell put up proofs as soon as i gain them.
