__ Behave nice to the new kid on the block. __
By: Harshimjot Ahluwalia

Ohh god! You know it really stinks when you go to a new school, new society, and see new people doesn’t it chafe you. I know it bugs me a lot. I just hate it how people react to a new kid on the block. I have changed 3 or 4 school in past few years. And I faced new people with different reactions. Some people are nice and they help the new people and there are some people who are very mean and they just walk away if you ask them for help or you ask them anything.

Since I experienced this kind of behavior from people or maybe still experiencing. It makes me think that everybody in this world at least once or twice have faced this kind of situation then you might know how it feels when you are the new kid on the block. Then why have you turned like others? Why have you start to behave the same way some people do to the new people? Think about it you will the answer. Then you will find out how unfair it is to behave bad to the new people.

Back in the fourth grade I had a very good friend who was just new from Taiwan she was also new to the country like me. And when she used to try to talk to the kids in the school they used to call her weird and ignore her she used to be so upset. I felt bad for her. That poor girl!

The next time you are behaving bad to a new kid just think back in your life how you felt when this happen to you then visualize how the other person would feel. So try making the world a better place. I hope you understand what I meant to say.
