Fire under water

IKA-SIYAM NA PAHINA

•| STOP BULLYING |•

“ Ayos ka lang Andrey? Parang pinag pawisan ka ah? ” nag tatakang tanong ni Calli kay Andrey habang papasok sa Ateneo.

“ Huh? Ah HAHAH oo may report kase ako ay hindi kami pala ni Ruehan ” tugon niya.

“ Eh ano namang meron? ” naka kunot noong tanong ni Alfie, inis namang binaling ito ni Andrey.

“ Hoi Alfie? Mag rereport ako kasama ang taong kinikilala nang lahat tsk sige na! ” ani ni Andrey at nauna nang pumasok, hindi pa siya nakaabot nang tawagin siya ni Marcus.

• Andrey POV's •

“ Andrey? Sabay na tayo ” ani ni Marcus at tumakbo sa gawi ko, hays ito na naman.

“ Oh? Sino pala ka partner mo? ” tanong ko habang sumasabay sa lakad niya papuntang room.

“ Sino pa ba kun'di si Andrew! ” naiirita niyang saad AHAH naiinis kase siya kay Andrew, parang ako sa kanya, ganon din siya kay Andrew.

“ AHAAH oh ba't ka naiirita? ” natatawa kong tanong, paupo na kami. Nakita kong papunta sa gawi namin si Andrew palihim naman akong napatawa dahil suminyas siya sa akin na ‘wag ko daw sabihin na nasa likod siya nito.

“ Marcus!! ”

“ Mama ” tumawa ako nang tumawa sa naging reaction niya, sino bang mag aakala na mama’s boy pala ang gong² na ito.

“ Mamameya ” pang iinis ni Andrew tsaka tumabi sa inuupuan ni Marcus.

“ Ikaw! ”

“ Halika kana na re-search ko na kung paano maiwasan ang bullying kaya halika ka na! ” hinapit ni Andrew ang kamay ni Marcus papatayo at dinala sa upuan nito, hindi man niya sinabi na kailangan kong tulungan siya ngunit kita naman sa mga mata niya, AHAHAH grabe.

Nakita kong paupo na si Ruehan sa upuan niya kaya nilapitan ko ito.

“ Ruehan? Handa kana ba sa report natin ngayon? ” tanong ko sa kanya. Tumingin siya sakin nang malamig sabay sabi:

“ Ikaw handa ka naba? ” pabalik niyang tanong, teka? Nag aalala ba siya na hindi ko matandaan lahat ng isinulat niya? Hmmm AHAHAH.

“ Ayokong mapahiya ” tsk, akala ko pa naman nag aalala siya haystt.

“ Oo natatandaan ko lahat ” naka roll eye kong sabi. Babalik na sana ako sa upuan ng biglang dumating si Ms. Elezabith.

“ Ok good morning Aciasa, go to your partner make it ready we will begin with in 2 minutes ” saad ni Ms. Elizabeth, umupo ako ulit sa tabi ni Reuhan.

‘Yong iba tumabi na sa kani-kanilang ka partner, napatawa ako ng bahagya nong nakita ko sina Marcus at Andrew na nag babangayan parin AHAHA grabe.

“ So who will be the first representative? ”

“ Kami Ms. ” taas kamay na saad ni Andrew.

“ Hoi? Bakit tayo? Ah Ms.? HAAHA hindi po” utal utal na saad naman ni Marcus, ngunit hinatak siya ni Andrew papunta sa harap kaya wala na siyang nagawa.

“ Hasyt cge na nga ” naka ngusong saad ni Andrew habang tumitingin sa notebook.

“ Hoi? Bawal tumingin sa script! ” sigaw ko nang akma n'yang bubuksan ang dala niyang notebook. AHAHA masarap asarin si Marcus.

“ Tsk ang bibig mo! ” tinuro niya ako habang may inis sa mukha HAHAHA.

“ Sige na mag umpisa na kayo ” hasyt nakakabagot mag antay sa dalawang ito, may balak silang mag salita?

Nakita kong nag hugot nang buntong hininga si Andrew bago nag salita.

“ Ahm ehem! Magandang umaga sa inyong lahat ahm ako nga pala si Andrew Nee, at ang ka partner kong si Marcus Sandwich ” natawa ang mga ka klase ko sa binanggit ni Andrew na apliyido ni Marcus, nakita ko din na tinignan ito ni Marcus ng masama.

“ Ay este Sanchez oo Marcus Sanchez ”

“ So let's start, “ Why is reporting important? ” Unang tanong ni Andrew, nag taka kami dahil hindi na ito nag salita ulit, nakita kong siniko niya si Marcus HAHAHA si Marcus pala ang dapat sumagot HAHAH nakakatawang tignan ang dalawa.

“ If you are in immediate danger, then you should contact the police or emergency services in your country If you think you’re being bullied, the first step is to seek help from someone you trust such as your parents, a close family member or another trusted adult.

In your school you can reach out to a counsellor, the sports coach or your favourite teacher.

And if you are not comfortable talking to someone you know. ” mahabang sagot ni Marcus luh grabe ngayon ko lang nalaman na nakakadugo pala ng ilong ang pag E-English niya.

“ TELL THEM TO STOP- Writing a clear message to the bully telling them not to contact you again probably won’t prevent them from attempting to bully you further, but it does help when you present evidence to the authorities. ” sagot naman ni Andrew

“ DON'T RESPOND TO THE BULLY- Cyberbullies, and bullies in general, thrive off of fear and negative responses to their abuse. By not responding, you may not completely end the bullying, but there is the chance that they will get bored with you and your lack of response. ” si Marcus naman ang nag salita.

“ MAKE COPIES OF ALL CONTACT WITH THE BULLY- You cannot make a case to the authorities about a bully if you have no physical evidence to support your claim. Take screenshots, copy the messages to a document, print them out, etc. It’s always best to have hard copies anyway, in case something happens to your computer/phone. ” Saad naman ni Andrew

“ BLOCK THE BULLY- Remove their contact information from your phone/computer/social media/etc. They can’t bother or abuse you if they can’t reach you.

REPORT THE BULLY TO THE AUTHORITIES - Most young people don’t tell their parents about bullying online or offline. So, if your child’s losing sleep or doesn’t want to go to school or seems agitated when on their computer or phone, ask why as calmly and open-heartedly as possible. Feel free to ask if it has anything to do with mean behavior or social issues. However, even if it does, don’t assume it’s bullying. You won’t know until you get the full story, starting with your child’s perspective. ” grabe ang sarap sa tainga na marinig ang pag E-English ni Marcus.

“ Once you know they are being cyberbullied, tell your school administration, the online service providers, mentor, law enforcement, etc. Whom you contact is all determined on where the bullying is taking place. If the cyberbully has threatened you, your family, or anyone else with physical harm you need to contact the police immediately, or have your parents file a report if you are a minor.

Cyberbullying may never stop, but that doesn’t mean that you or your loved ones have to just sit there and take the abuse. Speak up, fight for yourself, and make a difference, one bully at a time.For bullying to stop, it needs to be identified and reporting it is key. ” huling speach ni Andrew bago nag bow!

Pumalakpak ang lahat lalong lalo na si Ms. Elizabeth, syempre pumalakpak din ako.

Naisip kong kami ni Ruehan ang susunod na mag rerepresentative.

“ Nice one Andrew and Marcus ” nakangiting tinignan ni Ms. Elezabith ang papaupong Andrew at Marcus. Pero makikita mo parin ang pag babangayan nang dalawa.

“ Ms.? Kami ni Ruehan ang susunod ” ani ko at tumayo nakita kong naka upo parin si Ruehan kaya kinuha ko ang kamay niya at pumunta sa gitna.

“ Ahm AHAHA hi magandang umaga, AHAHAH ako nga pala si Andrey Nikki Stephen at ang kasama ko ngayon ay walang iba kun'di ang nag iisang Ice Ruehan. Okay mag umpisa na tayo ” ani ko at hinanda ang notebook ko ‘ di pa man ako nag salita ng sumigaw si Marcus.

“ Hoi bawal tumingin sa script ” luh? Binalik sa akin ang sinabi ko kanina? */Pout.

“ Bibig mo ” nakasimangot kong saad at binato sa kanya ang notebook na hawak ko at swerte lang siya na nakailag siya.

“ What is bullying? ” pag uumpisa ni Ruehan hayst!

Haystt hindi ko pa man nakabisado lahat ng linya sa tinanong niya. Kinakabahan na ako akala ko madali lang magsalita sa harap.

“ Bullying is a ahm is a repeated oo repeated ”

“ ‘Wag kang kabahan Nikki isipin mong tayo lang ang tao dito ” saad ni Ruehan pero ‘di nakatingin sakin. Hmmm baka effected.

“ Ok Bullying is repeated aggressive behavior where one person (or group of people) in a position of power deliberately intimidates, abuses, or coerces an individual with the intention to hurt that person physically or emotionally. Acts of bullying can be physical or verbal. Many young people can be unkind to each other during adolescence as they refine social skills and grow into adults. While these interactions are unpleasant, there is a clear line between conflict and bullying. Incidents of bullying must include all 3 of these characteristics: ” kinakabahan parin ako pero ‘di na kagaya ng una, effective ang sinabi ni Ruehan ngayon alam ko na, na hindi naman pala siya masungit.

“ Intentional- the behavior was aggressive and a deliberate attempt to hurt another person

Repeated- these aggressive actions occur repeatedly over time to the same person or group of people

Power imbalance- the person bullying has more physical or social power than the child or children being bullied

Bullying almost always takes an emotional toll upon the child being bullied, but the actions that constitute bullying vary. There are four types of bullying, which can occur separately or simultaneously: ” sinabi nya iyong mga characteristics included the bullying.

“ 1) Physical bullying such as kicking or pushing

2) 2) Verbal bullying such as name-calling or yelling

3) 3) Relational bullying such as excluding or rumor-spreading

4) 4) Cyberbullying which involves sending hurtful messages over digital devices like computers and cell phones.Bullying almost always takes an emotional toll upon the child being bullied, but the actions that constitute bullying vary.

2) 2) Verbal bullying such as name-calling or yelling

3) 3) Relational bullying such as excluding or rumor-spreading

4) 4) Cyberbullying which involves sending hurtful messages over digital devices like computers and cell phones.

Cyberbullying continues to increase as digital media become more prevalent in the social culture of children and teens. ” napaka relax lang niyang mag salita, halatang nanggaling sa mayamang pamilya.

“ Cyberbullying continues to increase as digital media become more prevalent, especially at School. ” ani ko.

“ The roles students play

Situations involving bullying are often more complex than they seem. Three widely recognized roles in bullying situations are victim, bully, and bystander. However, bullying situations are rarely simple. Youth, students who are victims of bullying may also act as bullies under some circumstances.

Students bystanders can either exacerbate a bullying situation, or intervene to stop it. Bystanders who make the bullying worse do so by either participating in the bullying themselves or providing the bully with an encouraging audience. Helpful bystanders, on the other hand, stand up for the victim when they see bullying occur, or get someone else who can help.

Be cautious about labeling. While we use the terms “victim,” “bully,” and “bystander” to refer to the roles that youth can play, it is important to consider the impact that these labels can have on young people’s identities. Many researchers and educators believe that such labeling sends a message that the bullying behavior cannot change. There are many factors that might influence a student’s behavior, such as the student’s peers, family situation, and school climate. While we use the terms victim, bully, and bystander throughout this site for simplicity, we believe it is better to focus on the bullying behaviors, rather than the labels. ” Ang cool niyang tignan para siyang isang CEO na nag ko-contribute.

“ Who is at risk?

All young and students people or are in danger of being bullied at some point during their adolescence—but there are certain populations at greater risk. Depending on the environment, some groups—such as youth who are perceived as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered, youth with disabilities, and socially isolated youth—may be more likely to be bullied ” ohm tama iyong iba nananakit na lalong lalo na ang mga miyembro ng LGBT hindi lang kinukutya sinasaktan din.

” What are the results?

The effects of bullying involve both the bully and the victim. Youth who are bullied are more likely to suffer from the following:

Depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and thoughts of suicide

Health issues like headaches, sleep problems, abdominal pain, bed-wedding, and fatigue

Academic issues including poor attendance, low test scores, and increased dropout rates

Youth who bully:

Are at greater risk of smoking tobacco and drinking alcohol

Perform poorly in school and have a poor perception of school environment

Are more likely to become involved in criminal activity and to experience psychiatric disorders*

Bullying, aggression and violence are never OK at school or anywhere. Everyone in the school community has the right to feel safe and protected. It is the job of teachers and your parents to make sure you are protected against bullying so that everyone can learn in a respectful and positive environment. There's lots you can do to take action to stop someone bullying you or someone else.

You might have disagreements and even arguments with other kids, but is this bullying? It's good to understand just what bullying is so you can take the right steps to fix the situation. Bullying is when someone picks on you, abuses you verbally or physically, over and over, leaving you feeling unsafe, upset or angry. ” Sa wakas natapos na rin, nagulat nalang ako nang may biglang pumalakpak AHAHAH kanina ko pa kase iniisip na kami lang dalawa ang tao dito AHAH.
