So how about that drama? We all know about it and probably all of us have been through it. Isn't it just terrible? Girls have the most drama but boys still have their fair share. I like to think of people that cause drama as Green Eyed Lobsters. That is a silly name to call them, right? It just helps me to laugh and be happy instead of being sad and upset. What do you do when drama comes your way? Do you coward and run or do you hit it all head on? It's true that you can't just run away from your problems and them all disappear. I'm sure I speak for a majority of people when I say that we wish it could actually be that way. Here are some tips that I hope help you with people seeking trouble and drama :
1. Try to ignore it. ( I know many people have probably told you this already. ) Sometimes, if you don't say anything back and just keep smiling, they will leave you alone.
2. Do something to keep you focused and to keep your mind off of things. Try to read a book, write, or maybe even draw.
3. Just keep calm and stay nice. Kill them with your kindness : ) This may cause them to get even angrier for a while because they aren't getting the reaction from you that they wanted but don't let that get you down. Eventually, they will more than likely leave you alone.
4. Try your best to stay away from them and avoid them. If you know they will be at a certain place at a certain time, then try to avoid running into them. Stay around your parents or any other authority. If you have a class with them and maybe even have a seat next to them, then fill the teacher in with your situation so that they can be aware. You might even be able to talk to your guidance office about changing classes if it really bothers you.
5. Tell your parents, your principal or any other trusted adult. Sometimes things don't always work out the way we want them to but they surely will do the best of their abilities to make the situation easier!
