I was reading <a href=\\\"http:\/\/www.bayarea.com\/mld\/bayarea\/entertainment\/columnists\/3437971.htm\\\">Ann Landers<\/a> today (yes I know how silly she is), but was reminded of my own high school trauma.  Someone had responded to how a girl felt humilated <a href=\\\"http:\/\/www.bayarea.com\/mld\/bayarea\/living\/3165440.htm\\\">after she fell and spilled food all over herself<\/a>.  Yet, I agree with Ann Landers\\&#8217; response.  She just needs to laugh at herself.<\/p>\n<p>It\\&#8217;s interesting to note how embarrassing disasters may be averted by some sense of humor.  As long as the classmates don\\&#8217;t remember and tease her constantly, I don\\&#8217;t see what\\&#8217;s wrong in laughing at yourself.<\/p>\n<p>I just don\\&#8217;t like seriousness.  I remember how in middle school how I was constantly made fun of&#8230;because I didn\\&#8217;t wear normal clothes or had normal behavior.  Constant torment may be a cause for transferring to another school, but not just one humiliating incident.  College always proves high school people wrong&#8230;that people aren\\&#8217;t always going to stay in cliques their entire life.  Those who are happy in cliques may find college alienating and isolating.  That\\&#8217;s what they deserve anyway.<\/p>\n<p>And I disagree with <i>Orinda<\/i> (how ironic that Orinda is really close to here), what..psychological counseling?  I was the shyest student in high school.  And look at what I have become.  A blabbermouth monster. :)  College solves nearly everything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tomato face.
