Bulllying
When I was younger, mostly during elementary school, I was bullied very often. I hated it with a passion, yet for some reason I could not develop hate for any of my classmates that bullied me. This is because I knew the main reason they were bulllying me was because it made them feel more powerful and cool in front of their friends. I was an easy target because I was shy, smart, and middle eastern. It's easier to make fun of the kid who is different because all of them were the same so they had each other to back up one another. I hated being bullied because I felt like the kids didn't really want to hurt me, they were just being immature. But it did. People would constantly call me names and no one would talk to me because they were scared they would be bullied too. This made me have very few friends, and when I did have friends they just used me either to backstab me in the end or for help with homework or something. Eventually I had to toughen up and fight back and start using my words and fists to fight back. People don't mess with a guy that fights back or is aggressive. This was how I solved my bullying problem during early middle school. If i saw someone being bullied now I would definitely help them because I know how it feels to have no one on your side. I wish I would have had someone to help me when I was being bullied. sometimes the girls told the boys to stop but when there were no girls, all the other boys would just stand there and watch. I would definitely step in and stop anyone being bullied. I know the victim of bullying would greatly appreciate having someone to help him out. Plus it's a little easier to do something about it when you're 6 feet tall haha.

My Favorite Film
My favorite film of all time is The Dictator. I found this
movie very funny and the theme behind it was very interesting. It showed how strong the power of love
is because it was able to change a man’s evil ways to find justice and freedom
for all. All it took was one girl to show him the light. He gave up all of his power
and brutality all for one girl. This shows that, believe it or not, the power
of love between two people can sometimes be so strong that it can overcome a
person’s desire for power and wealth. No amount of money can give someone the
feeling you get when you know you are with someone you care about. Even though
they are from two religions that completely hated each other, he didn’t care.
This really represents the modern way of how people in our society should began
to think and act.
