Our story started back in the year 2013. A young, quiet, 13 year old girl by the name of Jade Runo started eighth grade. She was so nervous she shook just thinking about going back to that trailer park of a school. She had knots in her stomach, her already pale skin was whiter than snow. She started sweating as she brushed her long indigo hair out of the way of her eyes. She looked in the mirror, her bright blue eyes drifting, looking at her beat up ripped jeans and scrubby T-shirt.

They also asked her if she would go to Wal-Mart to get some a few groceries before heading to work concessions. While driving, she noticed a car had been following her for over five minutes. She decided it was probably nothing, and didn’t pay much mind to the car behind her for the rest of the time it took her to get to Wal-Mart. When she arrive, she quickly ran through Wal-Mart to get all of the groceries her parents needed her to get. While making conversation with a kind check out lady, Hadlei noticed a rather peculiar looking man, standing by the exit, about 30 feet from where she was standing. As she continued to consult with the cashier, she couldn’t help to notice how the strange man would not stop staring at her. While she bagged her groceries, she looked to her right, and notice the man still continued to stare at her.

All I had on my mind was that my little brother was falsely accused of vandalism. When I woke up and went to school the following morning, I immediately got called to the office. There I found Branden, Bryson, and Jack. They are football players that cause a lot of trouble . As soon as I walked in, Jack said; “Jake did it and you know it.” Me, knowing this wasn’t true, raised my voice and replied, “You’re a liar and don’t be accusing my brother of something you didn’t know he did! You and your friends probably did it!” At that point, the principal and resource officer pulled the three boys into the office. Soon after, another officer walked in the door. “Emiley, come with me please.” he said. Once we walked into his office, he had the tapes pulled up from that Friday night. “Which one is Jake?” he asked. I replied, “Jake isn’t in it.” While watching the tapes, I saw a blonde haired girl, she reminded me of Anna. I asked the officer, “Who’s that girl?” and he replied “I can’t tell you, is there any reason your brother might’ve done this? Vandalism may be an act of revenge, a way of expressing a political opinion, or a means of intimidation.” At this point, I was so annoyed I got up and walked out. As I left, I walked past the football players as they snickered and laughed. While I was walking back to class, my phone vibrated. My mom texted me saying, Your dad and I are on our way to

Social media is a wonderful way to share your thoughts and adventures with the world, but it can also become a breeding ground of hatred and negativity. Many female pop musicians have experienced the online negativity, and Lauren Mayberry is the newest victim to speak out against the cruel comments.

That day at school, she saw some kids picking on a little boy with really fluffy hair on the playground. She gets upset seeing someone being hurt so she storms over there and stands infront of the crying boy and yells for the bullies to stop it. They see her arms and laughing asking her if she scribbled on herself because she thought it would make her look cool. She gets more than upset now, she's angry, really angry. Not because they made fun of her (even though it did hurt) It was because they were still trying to hurt someone. Her eyes arent blue anymore, They're a deep Purple. The kids that were just bullying the boy dont know whats going on. It's like a flash and Kathryn can see again, but shes horrified at what she's seen. The bullies were all on the ground, one was bleeding, another screaming for help because of his leg. She turned around and saw the fluffy haired boy looked horrified and before she could say anything to him, he got up and ran away in fear of being hurt. Kathryn ran home that day before school even ended. When she got home she cried to her father saying she was a monster and that she hurt

I had the privilege to have John Halligan speak at my High School and share the story about his 13-year-old son Ryan Halligan, who committed suicide due to cyberbullying. Ryan shared an embarrassing personal story with a friend who used that information to start a rumor that Ryan was gay. The taunting continued until almost everybody knew the rumor. Ryan was taunted day in and day out, he got to the point that he wanted to move to get away from the torture. Ryan thought he had finally struck a friendship with a pretty, popular girl through AOL. He later learned the girl and her friends thought it would be funny to make Ryan think the girl liked him and use him to share more personal embarrassing information which she

Many cyber chats, although good for online communication however also has the potentials to cause emotional distress. Insults, profanity, humiliation and much more are some of the causes of which resulted many people to depression, suicide to ‘get out of this misery’. Through social networking, online reputations are being humiliated through verbal communications or offensive images that are being posted up onto social networking sites, such as Facebook. Chanelle Rae, a 14-year-old former student at Geelong’s Western Heights College, took her life on Friday the 17th of July 2009 in another cyber bullying incident, of which Chanelle’s mother, Karen reported to 3AW radio on the 21st of July 2009. Her mother reported, ‘she wanted to die because of the message that was given to her that night.,’ This highlights the fact that lives can also be lost while having the benefits of social networking on Facebook, Bebo, Twitter and much more. Thus shows that social networking can have a severe impact on many of our lives through what we say or post online.

I parked my car on the side of the road and sat aimlessly in my car. I sent Hailey the “here” text and waited. She was in there. Morgan Tenaglio was actually in there. A girl of her status and beauty had never given me any sort of consideration. “I wont mess this up”, I told myself. Hailey presented herself at the front door and I got out of my car and walked towards her. We exchanged hellos and she asked me, “are you ready to see Morgan?”. I swallowed my breath and murmured “yes I am”. She escorted me to her basement door as I said hello to her mother. Hailey opened the door and step by step, started walking down. I followed close behind. As I walked down I heard the voices of Jake, Leila, and Stevie... But no Morgan. I turned and walked past the wall to my right. My eyes were closed and ready to see her. Everyone said Hi to me as I opened my eyes and gaged the room. Morgan was nowhere in sight. I was confused and discombobulated as leila shouted, “haha jokes on you. Morgan isn’t even here”. Following this, I heard a faint muffled voice come from under a stack of blankets in the corner of the couch that laid rest in Hailey’s basement. All the sudden the blankets started to move and out of nowhere, she popped up. I froze...Speechless....caught off guard. She was beautiful. The most beautiful girl I had ever seen. Her angelic eyes, a greenish brown that could put a man to sleep. Her straight brunette hair looked as gorgeous and smooth as a photoshopped models out of a
