Similar to Zimmer, I used to hide and sit completely in the back. Even though I hid, everyone knew who I was, a lonely girl who had failed herself and her parents. The girl who could have done well in elementary school if she had been given the chance. Oh, how I wish it were a terrifying nightmare, yet this is my reality. Bullying is a serious problem in our society that occurs beyond elementary school. Even though my experience in elementary and middle school wasn't positive due to bullying, I really learned something from it. I learned to face problems instead of running away from them like a coward. Despite being an adult, I still face bullying at work in the form of coworkers, patients, and managers. Day after day I take small steps to learn to solve problems rather than create new ones
