The thing is, mostly, everyone in high school is mature. Some just act like kids because they want to. They're aging, growing up, becoming an adult. They don't want to. They don't want to feel the responsibilities of life crushing them down moment by moment. I'm a high school student myself, and countless people have told me this. It's not about being mature at this point. It's about having as much fun as you can before you are forced to become just another boring, sterotypical adult. I wish some were mature, but I understand why they aren't, and I feel like other people need to understand it too.

No. Being autistic I learned that if you are yourself around people that do fit in, they’ll mock and ridicule you for it as much as they can so they can fit in MORE and seem cool to their friends, while you become less and less able to fit in.
I am 61. I still carry with me the taunts, the teasing, the verbal abuse, the snickering, the name calling. It has taken me decades to realize my self worth.
This sweet girl, Olivia, speaks so much truth. I showed this video to my 7th graders this week. Numerous girls cried as they watched, but I could see the boys wondering if they were the same: not good enough. A message to all the middle schoolers out there ... YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH! Thanks so much, Olivia. You inspire me.
By now, she’s probably 18-19 years old. I really hope people treated her better after this, and I hope she gained confidence in herself to not care about what others think of her. I don’t know this girl, but I just know that she became successful, and will continue doing amazing things in life.
It's not always an option to not care about what others think about you because many don't stop at thoughts and cause you very real harms, not just words. Especially when they realise you don't care about them, they do everything to catch your attention and hurt you. They are probably socio- or psychopaths I guess, certainly not humans, but there are so many of them it's baffling.
@@name5876you can react in any way you want. you can act like you don’t care, you can act like you don’t know what they’re talking about, but no matter how much you *act* , you can never control your actual feelings.
@@noobilyplus ??? are you okay? why are people so desperate to talk in riddles? can you not express your thoughts so others could understand you? then why imitate communication at all? of course you won't say anything
@@name5876 they meant they could pretend to not care but they can't control how they really feel. Hiding emotions, that simple. What even makes you think it's a riddle? Everyone here understands, I did at first glance. I think that says more about you than them.
To write such a poem, reveals a great gift. To memorize a poem that long, reveals a sharp mind. To express it with such feeling reveals a passionate heart. To make others feel it too, reveals a true poet!
Agree, but the memorizing bit... It's kindof like performing a song that you've composed. You know it well enough that you can improvise off the base, and the end product is more or less the same, because the expression is your own. That is to say, its not like regurgitating a chapter from a text book. Not to say it's not impressive, because she's awesome. The process is just much more intimate than raw memorization, as its a part of the whole.
This is exactly why I stopped caring. I used to be insecure. I used to think I was fat. I used to get bullied. But one day, I guess something changed. I stood up for myself. I stopped thinking I was fat. I stopped looking at my eyebags wishing they were gone. I don't get bullied that often anymore. I have one or two friends, but for me that's enough.I stand up for others. I believe that you, the person reading this, can do it too. Yes, I still sometimes feel a little insecure, but then I remeber how far I've come. The things I went through. I feel proud of myself. And I want everyone here to know, that I believe in you. Keep going.
She quite literally encompasses what adolescent girls have going through their brain on any given day. It’s killing them. Anxiety and depression is killing our children. Hug and love your kids. Tell them they’re perfect.
The fact that's she's in 7th grade and has this complex emotion and the ability to write such an astonishing poem proves the fact that she's good enough to go far.
“they cuss and say dirty jokes, and even make fun of you. you know you shouldn’t hang out with them, but they’re popular. and you just want people to like you.” hit me hard.
yeah it’s sad, but i feel bad bc i’m in the “popular” group this obviously isn’t at every school bc at mine i feel like i’m pretty nice and so are my friends.. and all of the popular kids at my school have a 3.5 gpa or higher lol
Soon or later, society will do that. That's what they did to me. All what I ever wanted was ppl to love each other and themselves. I had hope and I gave it to strangers , and I believed I could change the world to make it a better place for us to live. But I was wrong, society wants ppl to be bad. After all, I'm just one in 7 billion, I can't do it alone..
San Zr it’s so sad but I am now thinking the exact same thing. When I was younger my only wish for the world was world peace and happiness for everyone, now as a almost teen I know that society wants u to fail, they want u to feel bad about urself so they feel good about them. All society is is a huge race to the top and they will pull ur hair to get ahead the will trip u up and they will knock u down but sometimes u don’t even want to get back up because u KNOW IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, u know it’s only a matter of time until the next person breaks ur heart u know ur spiral down to the starting line is just around that corner and u know that it’s not even going to make a difference because no one will even notice but if u tell them the laugh they make life torture and they will make it worse. No one can win in this world, no one can touch that finish line and taste victory. No one ever has and they never will
2:57 The only thing that brings you joy. Until you go so far into the void that you lose motivation, and you lose your happiness too. Until you get too deep, and it’s too late for anyone to get you out of the sinking quicksand of anxiety and depression. (My own thoughts and experiences) I absolutely love the emotion she put into her words. She speaks the truth that every kid has been dealing with but every adult overlooks. She’s a wonderful young woman and I know she has a bright future ahead. (Also I’m literally gonna cry this girl is precious and must be protected at all costs)
Fun fact: I went to theater with this girl. She’s super talented. She played the blue fairy in Pinocchio. I wish the best for her and I didn’t realize how different she felt in the inside. She was also so confident on the outside.
Tell her she’s basically my twin. She’s all my thoughts. Tell her, from me, that no matter how helpless she has these thousands of fans our watching her.
@@Bearjordan She's cool. It's like a line from 13 Reasons Why but wayy better. She could try writing. I could tell her mind is a wide field of rich imaginations but she use it to convey good things. Liked it.
This young girl described everything I felt in Highschool, when I was a few years older then she was in the video... Craziness that I couldn't see it sooner, leaving high school was the best thing that happened to my self confidence. No longer do I give a damn what people think and if I don't fit into a certain mold. So happy she is so young and has this knowledge
Asmaa Ahmed ok and? Oh no its fake we are all gonna dieeeeeeee So what its fake,it speaks the truth,and its a poem,she vant shut up,shut up yourself,r you that dumb to even close your mouth? Ha....weakling..
I'm a 7th grader now, and this poem is more true than anything I've ever heard. This girl is very special, I'm going to write down the whole poem right here. 'Why am I not good enough?' by Olivia Vella One, take a shower, you don't wanna smell Two, pick out an outfit that will fit in with the latest trends And won't make you the laughing stock of the school more than you already are Three, put on some makeup So you can actually show your face in public And be a little bit pretty You can't even recognize yourself And your face tingles with an unrelievable itch you can't satisfy Otherwise you will have ruined the hours of meticulous painting You applied to your hideous face Four, don't forget to style your hair in elegant curls You can't let everyone at school see how your hair frizzes up Like an electrocuted monkey naturally Five, shove your fat feet into those toe pinching, Blood blistering Converse that everyone at school is wearing And you cannot be the odd one out As you gaze into the bathroom mirror You see a stranger that somehow stole your reflection And replaced it with a completely different girl Every part of your outfit is uncomfortable But even though you spend hours trying to look pretty You will never be as good as those other girls at school You are actually holding back a few tears But you feel like you are holding back a tsunami of emotion You can't let anyone else know how you feel Otherwise they will never respect you the same way they used to, Or did they ever... Why am I not good enough? Beauty is pain Six, get off the bus Seven, find a group of people you can walk to class with Because heaven knows you can't just walk alone But you don't even like these people They cuss and they make dirty jokes a lot And they laugh and make fun of you You know you shouldn't hang out with them But hey, they are the popular kids, And you just want people to like you like they like them You are in the stocks, As people throw judging tomatoes And hating heads of lettuce at your insecure little head You cannot stand up for yourself Because you are alone, trapped, and defenseless And you cannot stand up for yourself Because these popular kids are like the royalty of the school And apparently, what they say and do goes You take each comment, Each judgement, Each assumption, Each opinion, Each strange look, Each remark, Each criticism, Each review, Each report, Each assessment And with it, your self esteem plummets like a sinking ship Down, down, down, into the dark and dreary depths below You look at all of the other girls, your mind racing a mile a minute I wish I had her eyes, I wish I had her hair I wish I was as skinny as her, I wish I had her perfectly straight white teeth I wish that I had her social confidence, I wish as many boys liked me as they liked her Why am I not good enough? Life isn't fair Eight, get your work done The only part of your life that seems solvable is the actual schoolwork You take pride in your work because it is possibly the only thing special about you You do it to see the radiant smiles on your teachers' faces as they applaud your work Their joyful praise is the gentle rain that brings forth a magnificent rainbow. That radiant sunshine that brings forth fields of sweet daisies One of the only things that brings you happiness, But it is not popular to be smart. In fact, you are seen as a nerd, Too smart, Human calculator, Brainiac, Geek, Teacher's pet, Suck up Whatever wonderful name you can think of You peers' jealousy is the pollution that prevents a rainbow, The bulldozer that plows through the fields of once golden daisies The intangible object that crushes your happiness like a bug, A's are getting you nothing but torment Why am I not good enough? Just get over it Nine, it's the end of the day, get ready for bed Ten, undress, get your pajamas on. Wow, did I get fatter today? Eleven, undo your hair. Wow, my hair looks like a mop. Twelve, wash off all of your makeup... I can't even look at myself. This is my life every day, I can't control it. I've been told I can't compare apples and oranges, I've been told I'm distorted I've been told I have to be grateful for who I am But going through your middle school years, You are on your own journey to find yourself on a small jet And sometimes, you cannot control what happens to you The turbulence will throw you off course, But popular isn't always a good thing You tell yourself "I just want people to like me," "I just want to be accepted" But skipping meals and marking up your wrist isn't going to fix that You look at other girls wishing you were them But other girls are looking at you wishing they were you Society infers, "Girls have to have skinny waists, Tan skin Long silky hair, Perfectly straight teeth, Big butts and etc." Society infers, "Girls have to wear tons of makeup to be pretty." Society infers, "Girls have to wear skanky clothing And do inappropriate things with boys to be happy and considered cool." But society is wrong You are loved You are precious You are beautiful You are talented You are capable You are deserving of respect You can eat that meal You are one in seven billion And most of all... You are good enough
@@yuyucontent same. People be like "im depressed lol. Btw why do u always wear long sleeves" *definitely not hiding the cuts on my arm.* Like bitch depression isnt funny
“I wish I had her eyes” “I wish I had her hair” “I wish I was as skinny as her” “I wish I had her perfectly white teeth” “I wish I had her social confidence” “I wish as many boys liked me as they like her” Bro I wish I had your bravery
I teared up watching this, for months and months I have been feeling like this to school, feeling like im not good enough, why cant they like me, why does no one appreciate me? Why cant he just talk to me again? , thank you, god had heard me. And im forever grateful of this speech. God bless you.
This person truly deserves more. She has fought so many battles, and literally anyone who doesn’t hold some kind of respect for her, or thinks badly of her are not the right people for her, because she’s seen what’s wrong, and she is standing against it. And for that I applaud her
I literally do not know how she, first of all, writes that, and secondly, memorizes it, and thirdly, speaks it in front of everyone so PASSIONATELY and so CLEARLY!
Dang, there’s so much emotional maturity in her message. I’ve only recently started to understand these kinds of concepts. That’s some hard work and talent.
Honestly I did not expect how positive she was at the end and it made me cry. I relate to this too and I hate it. If I ever said anything, though, people woud laugh at me.
This is actually so well done. The thought and emotion put into it are clear. And the message shows amazingly. I hope she’s ok, middle school was tough for me as well and I can see 7th grade me appreciating this.
Alyssa Hansen Was that necessary? To comment something so pointless? Honestly just get out of here with your negativity. This is for people who understand/can relate to the pressure of feeling worthless.
This poem is really such a powerful one, but it is brought out even more by her powerful voice and facial expressions. Her confidence is on key. The way she speaks just strikes a cord in all the viewers.
this girl is so mature for her age. She seems like she's 17. The way her body language. She's so confident. I probably would be embarrassed and botch it up.
How did she memorize whole poem? She is so wonderful, I don't believe that, what a amazing person. You deserve everything that's good in this world. You deserve everything. ❤❤❤
Our 5th grade teacher showed us this for spreading awareness, I didn't really get it at that time, but now when I'm actually in 7th I understand the meaning of this entire poem.
In my school people wouldn’t even be taking this seriously Edit: Pls don’t come for me. I do take this seriously, I’m just saying other people wouldn’t.
That was me.. all through my grade school to high school years. It added nothing but insecurity all my life. I feel for everyone still going through this.
Yep... pretty people cant think like that. They don’t. Pretty people are a different breed. They are not human. They don’t go through similar struggles to us all. Sorry it was kinda sarcasm... not good at that
Yes I saw all the cool kids wearing converse I begged my mom for converse for weeks. They are toe pinching but I wear them everyday because they are “cool” I know it’s wrong but I just wanna feel good. I’m perfectly skinny but I call myself fat cause girls at my school weigh less than me. I get told it’s because of how tall I am and how short they are. I just wanna be shorter, skinnier, and..prettier.
"You look at other girls wishing you were them- But other girls are looking at you, wishing they were YOU" That just hit different- EDIT: Hello to all the fellow armys in the replies lol ^^
we usually write poem about our parents back in my country and some kids just deliver the poem with wrong emotion..instead of tell how hard their work was they telling that their mother likely to mad on them and some telling that their mother doesn't give enough pocket money😂
This girl just explained my entire 6th grade year in 6 minutes flat, im moving to 7th in august and i am SO. SCARED. I look up to people like this that are the same way.
No, it's the 'disgusting' 'popular' people who look down and say that "You have to be like me or you'll always fail, And you will never be like me because you'll always fail." Honestly, I feel like those dislikes are from people who are cold-hearted that don't ever care.
