Dear Diary,

Before making any assumption; that i have another angsty past, No.

It wasn't that i got bullied. 


It was me bullying a person, unintentionally. A mistake and a misunderstanding where i feel regret for the pass 23 years. And it will forever drag me down even if I ask for forgiveness.


Primary 3, I was proudful and ignorance like how should a wild ruthless brat be that every adults hates.


I do not know and understand what is right and wrong, I have no guidance but always punishments without given a reason what I did. Typical asian family to live in.


Anyway, it goes like this, 

It was breaktime, a girl in class, she is always alone, skiny and gloomy looking. I dislike it and I do not know why or how to approach her. I only want her to stop being upset over something that cause her. It angers me that look she is giving.


I exploded and yelled at her infront of everyone in class.


" You are ugly! No one will befriend with you!"


Seriously I stunned everyone in class. Other girls start to round up her with pitty look and one of the girl was pissed at me. She said : " How cruel can you be? Don't worry, I befriend with you (the sad girl)" 


I was confused and tried to explain with a laugh but words unable to express my feelings, Thats where I've wronged everyone and especially the sad girl.... I did not appologise because I do not know where I am wrong at. Totally blissful about the situation too soon after.


As how I always grew up in the family, "Upset and Cryover" does not apply sympathy nor proper understanding the overcome, its always a harsh reply : Get over it / So sensitive, how can you live in this world / I am busy, stop being noisy. etc.


That accident sudden replays in my head for some of my oblivions years after switching class level. It has cause me to realise the world I live in does not apply how I was brought up.


I wish I could explain it to everyone back again but I do not remember their faces and name especially that sad girl.


But that sounds like an excuse wasn't it? Why not publish out in social media and the world now? ( i only learn to use computer in my secondary years)


The answer is simple to me, I am escaping and I do not want forgiveness, I have no excuse to have one of what I did. I want that guilt to weight me down forever so I will not make the same mistake again by my shameful acts. Thats how I bind down my ugly nature.


But truely, If I can go back in time, I want to say " Don't look sad, can I help you? Smile please."

I was bullied by the whole class physical and verbal on my 6th grade. On college, the whole sem nobody talked to me. It made me more insecure. Maybe they were having troubles in personal life like you too..or some are not. But i forgave them. Everytime i saw each of them i dont feel any hurt anymore. I believe she will recover too and forgive you, perhaps forgiven you.
