I was born on November 23, 2000 in Loyola hospital in Maywood. Back when I was in kindergarten, I went to Edgewood Elementary school. My teacher was Mrs. Waterman. I had a lot of close friends at the time but due to the years that have gone by I can't remember all of them. I remember being so different from the other boys at my age, like when we had recess all of the other boys wanted to play two hand touch and wrestle in the dirt. You know usual little boy things. I on the other hand was different and I liked to hang out with the other girls and play house. You know usual little girl things. Nobody thought it was wrong. Nobody made fun of me. Everyone was happy with me just being me. This continued into first grade when I moved to a different school. But it wasn't until second grade that other kids realized that I was different. They teased me a lot at recess. But their was this one boy in particular that took it to a whole new level. He was bigger and stronger than me. At recess him and his friend would surround me and constantly push me and call me "little fagot". I tried to tell a teacher but they did noting about it. The recess supervisor just said "Oh those boys are just kidding with you." I didn't feel that way. For the first time in my life I felt targeted. I thought 'how could they be so cruel ? ' All because i was different. After second grade my family decided to move me back to Edgewood. I quickly reconnected with my old friends from kindergarten and made some knew ones. Till this day I am still close friends with Samantha, Lauryn, Missy, and Cassie. And they exept me for who I am.
