Oh god talk about confidence. I will always remember Mike. New kid at school total sweetheart. Got in with the wrong group of people but I'm sure he's doing well now if I could catch up with him wherever he is. 8th grade. I get my first haircut in years. I refused to cut my hair from... i don't know... 2nd grade on? Chopped off hair that was down to my butt all the way up to my shoulders. My hair sproinged up into curls i didn't know I had. Had this cute headband in my hair and he just walks up to me. "You look really pretty today. I love your new hair."
I DIED. This school of bullies that made me feel like a total outcast and this random kid just walks up to me. says this, and I got a huge boost of confidence that felt like bringing me back to life and I started becoming a more confident person from then on. He probably has no idea too xD
