I remember getting in my first fight. I was in elementary at the time and this kid that must have been held back 4 or 5 grades was messing with me. He was MUCH MUCH bigger than me and naturally I was scared of him. I told the teacher on him...went home and told my father who then scared me and ashamed me far more than some kid at school ever could do. I was so embarassed from my dad's words and ashamed that I let him down and did not stand up for myself that I could not wait to go to school the next day.

Sure enough he started bullying me but this time I turned around and hit him with everything I had right in the mouth. I knocked out his damn front tooth and split his lip all the way across. I was never messed with again at school and became an instant legend there! haha!
