Now since you know what bullying is, I am going to tell you why I want you to know about it. I am telling you because most people don’t think about what they are saying to others. I been bullied and I don’t like it. Now I think about what I say to people and I try to say pleasant things to everyone. I try and say "hey" to everyone I know. I do all of this because you never know if you made someones day by just saying "hi" or "you look nice today."

I have been bullied in the past. I was one of the tallest girls in my school, so people would make fun of me for it. But what they didn’t know was that it hurt me. I explained this to adults and to hear that they understood, made me stronger. But most kids can’t do that. They might think that people really don’t like them when it's not true and they will, most likely, hurt themselves. I think that bullying is not the right way to go in today's society. If your reading this then you should do something about it. Be kind to people and think about what you say to people. This could be happening to any one you love.

For an example why doesn't every spanish speaking country speaks spanish so we could all understand each other and we wouldn't have any confusion on words that are being said and the agents to get us confused.

Also, that if she were to have a conversation with someone in Espana they most likely would ask her what is she saying because they both have their own style of spanish speaking and their own words that have different meanings that puerto ricans words mean. 

Conversation: 

Me- Why won't people understand your style of spanish if they are from a different spanish speaking country 

Her- Por ella hablan un español diferente de nosotros y ay mucha palabras que son diferente y para ello son defcil para entender 

Me- Do you have a hard time understanding someone from a different country? 

Her- A veces si porque ella hablan different y el accent es dora para entender 

Me- Do they ever ask you "what did you just say" 

Her- Si pero no es nada malo.

Me- Do it get you mad? 

Her- No? no es na malo solo lo deci que esta tratando a decir y ya. 

Me- Do you ever try to change your spanish for them? 

Her- Mas nunca, no es necesario porque son solo dos o tres palabras que son diferente

me- Which spanish do you think is the best? 

Her- Para mi, el español de los borucas porque el acente es lindo no es como otro estilos de español que son feo 

Me- k
