Dear all of the horrible people in my class,
I got sick last Monday because of the keyboard I used. Not, it wasn't from you who claims to have infected everyone. I avoided you completely because of what you called me the week before; I didn't allow you to get close enough to pass on your germs. No, it wasn't from anywhere else in the college because I rarely touch other surfaces. No, I didn't catch it from outside of college. No, I didn't breathe in someone's infected carbon dioxide while walking behind them.
I caught it from the scummy keyboard I was using on Monday morning, and I can prove it! Tuesday I was at home all day doing housework and college work in my clean room on my clean laptop, and on Wednesday I had the anti-bacterial gel to wash my hands throughout the day in class. I ran out of it on Monday. See? Monday. Either some idiot sneezed on their hands then touched the keyboard, or in fact someone was disgusting enough to sneeze directly onto the keyboard. At least 7 other subjects, with about 20 students in each of them, use the same computer rooms as we do; none of us know who else comes in.
You laughed when I came to college on Thursday with anti-bacterial wipes to wipe down the PC I was using, calling me a retarded and weird person to be avoided at all costs. You singled me out and you, D, got the entire class to laugh openly at me and calling me names too cruel for this website.
But I had the last laugh.
Wiping the power button, the entire keyboard and the mouse, I pulled the anti-bacterial away from the equipment (Mmm! Yummy green apple scented!) the once white wipe was now black with dirt and yellow from sweat, grease and other germs. I held it up for everyone who was laughing to see. I made four of you "weak-stomached" girls run to the bathroom to be physically sick! Ha!
You laughed as I was hygiene-concious, but then you all have the cheek to ask me for a wipe to clean your computers?! Go away and leave me the h3ll alone, all of you. I'll be laughing when you catch something and I'll be nice and healthy once more.
If you all think that sidling up to me and begging for my help and opinions now after you all treating me worse than something unsightly on the bottom of your shoes every college day since August, you have another thing coming. I'm tired of being a doormat, and from now on I'll never volunteer to offer any information or answers in entire class discussions or small group discussions. I'll never voice my opinion anymore, because quite frankly I'm sick of being ridiculed for my neutral opinions or cut off. I'll never work as a group with any of you anymore; I'll never share my answers with you. I'll silently write the right answers down while the rest of you struggle. I'll stay silent. You'll never hear another word from me again, not even at break or lunch. And trust me, I will stay true to that vow; I never spoke a word for 2 years in my past, so don't think I'm joking.
Funny, you all think by ditching me at lunch break would make me sad, whereas infact that "loneliness" is exactly what I want. I want to sit quietly and listen to my metal music, while either reading a good fantasy novel on my Kindle or writing inspired parts for my fanfiction.
I'm glad most of you live a few towns over from me; that way I wouldn't have the unfortunate chance of bumping into any of you when I'm out in town at the weekend. I wouldn't be friends with any of you. I just put up with your presences because I have to. I'll be civil, but only because I'll be labelled as a bully and kicked out the course I'm paying myself. The guidance teacher knows what you all have done, and are still doing to me.
I hope you all get the comeuppance you deserve. I bet all of you were the bullies at school before college.
No love what-so-ever, only distain,
