Speak
Melinda’s experience in ninth grade was a lot different then mine but sort of similar in some ways. First of all I wasn’t raped or rejected like she was. We are similar by the way we enclosed ourselves within ourselves. When I was in ninth grade, I didn’t have that many friends and most of the time I felt alone. Just like Melinda, she sort of was popular until she was raped and no one knew she then became the outcast. Melinda didn’t have any friends she was truly alone. We are also the same because truly deep down no one knew how we felt no one listened to my feelings and my beliefs and thoughts. Just like Melinda but not exactly I had some friends who eventually left me for sports teams and other extra-curricular activities. I am different from Melinda though I decided to speak up and start from the top of the pyramid. I fell for a cheerleader and tried my hardest to get her to notice me, an unknown kid who was stupid and reckless trying to win the heart of a beautiful goddess, the cheerleader. Unlike Melinda, who went completely silent and wouldn’t talk to anyone. Not even to her parents. So in conclusion Melinda and I are the same in some ways but mostly different from each other. We ditched for personal reason we got in trouble we were quite we are who we are.

i agree with you there is always some things similar to our lives like we all like to be alone sometimes sometimes all the time. nice paper.
yours was very different from mine, i had so many friends i wasn't even funny, but i was like that in 6th grade, i had to build my way up. but once i got some good friends and started talking more i had them rolling in. then i started to play sports then every body wanted to be my friend.
i think that was the same for me in the ninth grade i had no friends i was not popular at all.
I bet it was. Melinda's life is more mest up then anyones, but people who have been through the samething know how she feels. She's a god person.
I think there are a lot of people that are in junior high and high school that feel like this. They feel like they are alone. A lot of people want to be liked.
I agree with you Cody. I think that she should've just came out with the rape thing instead of holding it in because than i dont think she would've gotten as quiet as she did. I think Melinda is a good person over all though.
