Can u drop the school name
Am 14 in 8th grade now u make me scared to go to high school 😭😭😭😭
Hey girl! You’re beautiful and blessed and I want to tell you about Jesus’ everlasting love for you, but HE can explain it better than I can. You can find out about His endless love for you in the Bible books Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. And remember, “If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9). Have an amazing day.
10:42 Sis, this is the exactly story my story. And yesterday everyone was shouting for games period but then I said yes sir please. He looked at me with those nasty eyes and said you want it. I got shivers down my spine. I said yes for the class and my passion in cricket. He then called the principal for a game period everyone was teasing me and thinking i have an inappropriate relationship with him. He once said i can scold anyone but not her (me). I always convince myself and others that it's not my fault.
This reminded me of not a teacher, but a staff member in elementary school. He had lunch duty and would subsitute for our class, and I remember how he would make me and my friends uncomfortable. Also Im really sorry u had to go through that
I’m in middle school and I have a creepy teacher he called kids darling and sweetie.. and baby, also he makes very weird and creepy smile faces 😢
😭😭😭🫣🫣🫣
☀️ I'm so sorry what happened to you and your sister
It’s in the past now :) just sharing to spread awareness! Thank you for listening 🩷
ALLLAH RAZI OLSUN YAVRUM💖💕❤️❤️❤️🎀🎀🌼🧝🏻♀️🌼🎀 God save you
So glad I found you, I am so similar to you. I feel so relieved. I am so anxious of people looking at me in public it ruins THE VIBE of my sexy photos. It makes me so anxious. I feel the exact same as you when I go out there, and am trying to get it done but trying to relax and then people pass by or I feel unsafe OR I feel someone is going to come say something and get me in trouble so I cannot finish the shoot, and I just pack up and leave and I am so frustrated at myself. I am so glad I am not alone????? Side note: I love taking them by myself and while I am alone because there is no one to lower my energy or try to steal my shine, belittle or bully me and I can truly embody the depth of who I want to portray within.
Girl I totally get it, I just want the cute pics but not the catcalling 😭😭 but you know what? The catcalling will always be there, so you might as well take the pictures you deserve!
I like that you covered how you angle the camera.
Thanks! I’m glad you found it helpful :)
My cooking teacher 'the chef', said to me he has two aswell and what I ment with two aswell is eggs. Bcs I came and asked for eggs in his kitchen. Then he disappeared for couple of months .
You edited your waist way more than just a little. Why bother? Everyone can see you’re a cow in real life 🥱
I’m in 6th grade and my PE teacher rubbed my back when no one was watching along with my friend and a lot of other girls. Also he in his 40S. he also has gone into the girl bathroom..
You should definitely tell another teacher or the principal about that, or your parents. Not okay.
Tf
I just started highschool and im going through it..
Do UC’s have the option to not submit grades from college courses ? (Since it’s not related to hs) Or do u have to report everything u took?
I just remember my counselor advising me to submit even the college course, and I remember after I got rescinded, my admissions officer told me it would have been mandatory to submit all grades including extra classes. I acted according to how I was advised so I’m hoping others get better advice!
In elementary school the PE coach would make us do squats and we all had to face the opposite way of him…
“Gymnastic distortion shit there” haha loved that part
This year I’m in middle school(I don’t wanna say the grade) but I got this teacher that everyone says is a creep and a lot of girls switched their schedules because they got him but I didn’t because the rest of my schedule is really really good but anyways apparently he told a girl that her leggings were so tight that he could see her camel toe…..and I also heard a rumor that he told a girl “those leggings look reallly good on your thighs” He’s also like 60 something years old and he creeps me out so much and I just hope I won’t be distracted by the fact that he’s creepy because he’s my MATH teacher and i obviously want to get good grades in math. But for me it’s only the 3rd day of school and he hasn’t said a word to me at all really which I’m so happy about and I just hope nothing happens to me.
Does your school know about this?
The camel toe one is crazy but at least it’s an old teacher because if it was a teacher that was young or around the 30s I would have to throw hands.🥰
This is a very relatable video, you literally explained my fear of taking pic in public so accurately! Thank you for sharing your insecurities and being vulnerable, much appreciated ❤❤
Your voice is mad annoying
Don’t listen then
Thanks for admitting your anxiety. I love social media and content marketing but my anxiety won’t let me take pics of myself in public.
I felt VERY intimidated and still do to this day, but I guess my desire for cute pics outweighs that fear 😂 Hang in there! You deserve great photos 🤗
I had a VERY suspicious teacher in middle elementary this dude would pick up us shake us around and look at our boobs and butts it’s so gross because we were 6-8 so gross anyway onetime we were gonna do a play and we were rehearsing in the theater in a college and I put my hands together and bended over while sitting down a lil because I was bored AND THIS DUDE WHENEVER I DID THAT HE WOULD LOOK AT MY BOOBS WHEN I WAS ONLY 9 our school has preschool kidergarten middle elementary upper elementary etc. and I’m still gonna be in the same school and I’m scared
I don’t believe that, you don’t have boobs or butt when your nine 💀
@@caroline_randomwell yeah but they probably just mean that’s there teacher was trying to look where he should not.
Reminds me of when my cousin asked me and my other girl cousin to lift up our shirts in the pool and to pull down our pants under water and jump I didn’t do it but my other cousin gave in :/

I’m in hs now but when I was in seventh grade this gym teacher was always known as the pëdo teacher and his last name started with a p so we called him mr pĚdophile. He made girls on the soccer team run just so he could like stare at them, like not just for practice. Idk what exactly happened bc I don’t play soccer but this was just a huge thing everyone talked about. He also had gotten fired from his previous school for being a creep. I have stories about personal experience though, not just rumors. I had him for gym class but it was online bc of Covid. This man would make us all jump and do squats and different workouts and made us all keep camera and sound on. Also when school went back into in person learning when I was in 7th grade, I was in the locker room and see him fully open the door and look inside bc he wanted to get everyone out and into the gym. I’m sorry but how did nobody catch this at all like wtf-
17min to tell a 5 min story - They "turned a blind eye" because he didn't do anything wrong - giving a hand signal/heart sign, asking where you got your skirt, and calling you TT isn't wrong - you didn't like it but its not wrong - All teachers watch students play sports- if girls wear "short-shorts" thats their decision - its common for teachers to know that prior students have brothers and sisters (LAST NAME) plus other teachers talking - OMG so much drama over nothing
they were groomed, wdym.

Great video! Do you edit your videos? They are so cute and funny ! I love it!
I do edit them myself! Glad you enjoyed :)
I'm sorry that Berkeley essentially rejected you after accepting you; I find it infuriating, actually, that an admissions office could lean 100% into a technicality when it (like pretty much every college in the US) exercises tremendous latitude in their admissions process, often following questionable practices that skim the boundaries of ethical behavior. And then they penalize you for making an honest, albeit technical and clear-cut, mistake. So I don't blame you for rejecting them the second time around! Even though I went to Cal and am sure you would've had a blast there, as you are obviously intelligent, wise and, above all, mature for your age. And while I think you were too quick to dismiss Berkeley's math program - after all, its undergrads have more top-place finishes than UCLA in the venerable Putnam Math Competition - how could I second-guess your choosing UCLA? You chose the same school as the greatest living mathematician, the other 'Terri' (well 'Terry' with a Y), Terry Tao. Did you have any classes with him? Even if you didn't, just walking down the same halls as he (and UCLA does have a stunning campus) might be reason enough for a math major to become a Bruin. I am sure you had an amazing time at UCLA apart from being in the same department as Terry-with-a-Y, just as you would've at Berkeley. I consider them twin schools and, for the record - newsflash - they are actually tied at #1 public university as of 2023. Most of all, I think you realized that you had as good or better an education at a top public university as you would have at Stanford or an Ivy. This is why I took umbrage (just a little) at your calling Berkeley a 'backup'. It may be, functionally, but this is very often in large part due to your background (which is similar to mine): students of this background at UCLA and Berkeley have academic records pretty much identical to the average student at Stanford and the Ivies. I know this from personal experience as I have numerous family members who went to those private schools, and because I interviewed Cal students for years for scholarship awards. The credentials of our students - even nonrecipients - were off the charts and often better than those whom I knew went to top private schools. This is why I could never understand why elite public schools are seen as lesser than their private counterparts; in other countries, it's the opposite. Especially since you cannot buy your way into UCLA or Berkeley, while this is possible at private universities (it's called 'Development'). OMG, sorry for this rant. Anyway I am very vocal about public education like one of our Nobelists, Randy Shekman (who went to UCLA undergrad, like you!) All I want to say is that I'm glad that your sad story had a happy ending...because it ended, and you ended up, at a public university. California is truly blessed to have two of the greatest universities in the world, Berkeley and UCLA. Errr, I mean UCLA and Berkeley ;)
I loved reading this! Cal is great, I’m honestly just being bitter and have a deep love for UCLA 😂🩷
@@territang Thank You! Didn't hear from you for a while, so I thought my comment might have upset you, like maybe I'm implying you went to your second-choice school or made you regretful. So I'm glad that you actually appreciated it! We can now both share the deep love for our respective schools. When it comes down to it, we're actually both BEARS: you're a Bruin, and I'm a Golden Bear! Serendipitously, I am actually wearing a Golden Bears T-shirt right now. ;)
