Gossip, crushes,&Bullies: advice?

So here it is:

first came to middle school in 7thgrade, and now im in 9th in highschool. But when i came in 7th people didnt get me%26amp;some of the kids would pick me out because i'm mixed girl so they might say "can u see that hair?" or "ew her nose is long" but sometimes "oh, ur eyes hella pretty".

Back then i just came from elementrary so i was a bit annoying. i was labeled weird %26amp;annoying for a long period of time until i learned how to be fun%26amp;more charming w/ the help of a friend who was popular %26amp; barely talked to me at school. Also,i learned about socialstuff %26amp; began to take care%26amp;straighten my hair and wear flattering clothes i was not "only pretty" but i was stared at more%26amp;even asked by others"do u have a boyfriend?"

so after 2 1/2 years of teen experience i began to be more confident%26amp;charming %26amp; am a good dancer so once cheerlead starts my popularfriend says i could make var. w/ her.

even after "weird" image faded away people back from 7th still resent%26amp;tease me! What am i to do?

Concentrate more on your education than your image. Grammar!

After that, don't worry. It's just high school. You'll be there 4 small years of your life, and then you're free.

Seriously, though - you should concentrate a little more on your education than on what other people think of you. It will better prepare you for your future, and will make you a more well-rounded person. High School is just one of those things you have to just go through. It will be over before you know it, and you'll then learn that there are so many better things out there in life than that.

Just suck it up and keep trudging on. And pay attention in class!

Ignore them. They are never going to change.

I agree with the first answer. Dont sell your self out and keep your eyes on your future. If you dont it would come back to you. As far as I am concerned those people who tease you are ugly. Out side and out. As far as I know your pretty and dont listen to what other people say. There just trying to get to you. If you want to get to them just walk away or laugh about it. Every now and then when somebody says something harsh I say stop talking about your self like that. But if you do that you may get a bad come back that will hurt. Looks are not everything. And Im sure your pretty. Im not just saying that to be nice. I mean it, I bet you are very pretty and just think you are not because of what life has brought to you. Something else is to pray to God. Even if you are not a Christian. He wil answer you even if he didnt before. ( maybe he did or he hasnt yet but he will ) ~ smile..

The lesson you should take from this is to be yourself. High school is so not the real world-it's full of hyper-judgments. I just read an awesome article in Glamour about the things us women of color do to fit in with Caucasians. Don't do it! Check out this natural beauty!!!

It seems she is jealous of the poised and fun young woman, you are becoming. If you want to remain friends with her, you'll have to either ignore her catty and teasing remarks.

Or you'll have to speak with her about it, and tell her how uncomfortable it makes you feel. Ask her why she feels the need to remind you of a painful time in your life. Ask her to think about how she would feel if the shoe were on the other foot, and she were the one being teased.

Some people have to put others down, in order to feel better, more powerful, in charge or better about how they look. They are very insecure, deep down.

If she does not stop the bullying, and the teasing, she's not your friend, and it will be time to cease the friendship.

Ignore them, they are just jealous that they are not as cute as you!
