#57 Take Back the Halls
I was bullied a lot in middle school. I started lifting weights and boxing to protect myself. Once I had enough confidence, I stood up to every single one of my bullies (I had like five) by shoving them into walls or lockers, confronting and yelling at them in front of large groups of people, and just generally being a jerk to them.
I only really got in trouble once for an altercation, but these moments of me taking back my life were absolutely worth it.
