Dont let other people make you someone else

One Sunday afternoon... I was talking to my mom about clothes because I was packing for Florida. I told her about the day when I came into this class with a sweater that my sister had gotten me for Christmas. I was totally made fun of. People were saying "that sweater looks really weird" or  "that looks really young and only kids six and under wear gap clothing".
  As I started telling my mom this I began to cry really hard. I just got that moment when you feel really emotional. I guess it was because I remembering the feeling that I felt that day. The embarrassment.
  Then when my mom and I were telling my sister she said "don't worry about what other people say. If you like your sweater than wear it." 
  After I went down stairs to tell my dad I walked back into to my sisters room... She was balling her eyes out? She said "it really annoys me that boys and girls were making fun of you and being mean to you". She started hugging me really tight. I hugged her back. Beginning to cry with her.
  I will never forget that moment. My sister is so special and I am one lucky girl to have a caring and loving sister like her. For now on I'm not going to worry what other people say to me I'll have to stand up for my self and be strong.
    P.S, I was also really ashamed because my sisters car got broken into and she had all of our family's Christmas presents in her car. All together that was probably worth a few hundred dollars. Yet she still got me that sweater! By the way when she found out about the sweater she was furious and really disappointed. So if you were one who did this don't only think about how you made me feel but how you also made my sister feel.
 So don't listen to people who say mean things, just stand up for your self.
