I don't have much of friends those years except our neighbor. I'm also the youngest student back then because I was accelerated, that's why I'm always being bullied by my classmates.
I used to bring pocket mirror because my Aunt used to tell me that it's part of being neat and clean. I belong to those few students who's wearing proper uniform, shoes and socks since I studied in a public school that only has one comfort room for the whole school.
One time (on my third grade), as I check myself on my mirror one of my classmates snatch the mirror from me. I just don't know what to do so I stayed quiet waiting for her to give the mirror back to me. But when I saw her using my mirror to peek on our classmates skirts, I stood up and nicely ask her to give my mirror. She refused and still continue peeking on our classmates. When I saw her peeking on my bestfriend's skirt, I got mad and tried to get my mirror back. She run asking me to run after her to get it. The good thing is, I'm a runner that it's so easy for me to outrun her, but she's way bigger than I am. It took me some time to get the mirror.
Unfortunately our teacher saw us running, so were both punished. Our teacher made us squat outside the room for two hours. It was a big shame and pain in the back.
From that day on, I stopped bringing pocket mirror.

We do things when we're young that we regret. I would have just told my teacher about it instead of running after the girl - but that's me now, I think I would have done the same in that age.
I'm not fond of bringing mirrors, till this date, I don't really bring a mirror or even face powder with me. I rarely comb my hair outside the house too. I think I'm just lucky I'm one of those girls with hair that don't need too much attention. I comb my hair after taking a shower then that's that! hahahaha...
Have a great MyLot experience ahead!

Yes, I did regret that I didn't just told my teacher about my classmate. It was a lesson learned. If I know the things I know now, I should have know what to do.
I did try to tell my teacher whenever my classmates bully me but she doesn't care at all, I always ended up being bullied more. Anyway, I hate that teacher, she's spanking her student's for not doing their assignments.
