Dork?? No no! That term is derogatory! The correct term is GEEK!

Mega Nerd and proud of it! Yes, I was made fun of regularly when young because I was so different and such an introvert. But they never tried anything physical because I'm a big girl. It was all taunts and mean words, and after a while it was water off a ducks back. I didn't like it, but I didn't let it get to me.

I NEVER changed who I was comfortable being just because of others. I wasn't 'myself' back then because I hadn't found myself yet, but I knew what I liked doing and being at the time. Kids need to learn to be themselves and not care about what others say!
