MY HASSLES

I get on okay with most kids at school, but it does wear you down when people go on about black people. There aren't loads of black kids at the school, so I never know if comments are meant to be aimed at me. Then there are jokes of course, there are some kids that think it's really friendly to say things that are insulting and then tell me they don't mean it. As for calling me 'Saddam' because my name's Hussain, anyone with even half a brain thinks they've thought of it for the first time! You have no idea how boring it is. I also get hassled by what people say about refugees, that they're all lazy, that they aren't really refugees, that they want money for nothing - all that makes me angry cos they don't now what they're talking about. They just hear it on the telly or from their dad and they just mouth off about it without even stopping to think. It's easy isn't it? 'Let's all hate the refugees and blame everything on them'. I don't tell them I was a refugee.
