38. Please don't quit school
Unfortunately, there are so many miserable, horrible, nasty people out there and you just can't let one of them bring you down. After reading the long thread about your teeth I'm just happy that you are safe and on the road to recovery. It's dumbfounding that people don't realize that virtual everyone will have a period of time when they won't look their best. I am really not someone who curses, but fuck 'em!

On a more polite note, I find looking someone in the eye after an insult and simply asking in calm manner, "why are you so unkind?" usually is enough to embarrass them to stop.

Take really good care of yourself.
