Re: High school haunts
Terrible time. I was often humiliated because of my pakistani clothes, I was never allowed to wear anything western, not even if it was unrevealing. There was this dude in a higher class who always chanted 'ghandi ghandi ghandi' whenever he saw me passing. Then there was a small group also of a higher class who would call me 'hey Turk with trousers and a dress, haha' . That was just the beginning. And on top of it, I sucked in gymnastics, because they were mostly basketball or football (soccer), whenever the ball came in my direction, I ran away from it :D
But it was a bit fun too, I had this one friend with real carrot orange hair. We both had ugly teeth adn I had just gotten braces (I was often asked if I would be as kind as to open cans).
She was huge, very tall and I was average. We were so different and people always stared at us when we would be walking during lunchbreaks. :D
She was my only friend. So it wasn't that bad I guess.
