use it as constructive critism. if there are comments on that paper that you dont like or agree with, understand first that they are just opinion. and second, if you feel the same way, do something to change it or leave it alone. you are gonna be your own worst critic honey. just be yourself and if you feel like there's anything you need to change, then do it for you. never for anyone else!

It's probably the truth. I remember doing that once in a health class a few years ago. People kept writing the same thing on everyone's paper like "Nice hair"...etc. (boys didn't know what else to write).
I wouldn't take that as an insult, because it wasn't meant to be insulting. I don't understand how being "boy-crazy" and "always in class" are compliments, but they're definetly not insults.
Being "helpful" is pretty close to being nice and kind, and "pretty funny" are compliments.
Maybe you're just disappointed because you didn't hear what you wanted to hear.

Hi there. You shouldn't worry what other people think about you. You know you are pretty and kind and that is what counts.
Also, people might feel a little awkward or not even know really what to say under certain situations...did they have to sign their names on their comments? Also, do you notice how one person thinks you're "pretty funny" but the other person thinks you are "very quiet". Perhaps they don't know you well enough to know if you are kind, or quiet at times, or funny other times. They know different aspects of you. As for your looks, perhaps most people took it as an exercise of personality and not looks. Either way, I think the exercise your teacher asked you to do is stupid.

I don't think it matters and your teacher was a dumb azz for giving that as an assignment. If I was your mother I would have went up to the school to as what the hell does that have to do with her education. It seems like your teacher is trying to get to care what your classmates think about you. It doesn't. What your friends and family think about you doesn't even matter. All that matters is what YOU think about you. You should not focus on pleasing others a common mistake we all make at your age but when you become and adult you find that's not the way to happiness. Bill Cosby said it best "I don't know the road to success, but the road to failure is trying to please everybody".

I would be happy with that, ok the person didn't say you're pretty, but why should they be the judge of that? Anyway, it's a nice comment, I wouldn't take it as an insult at all.
I'm sure you're taking this too seriously anyway, it was just something your teacher made you do, it's nothing serious.
Don't worry about it, at least they didn't day anything horrible! xx

It seems as though you are not perceiving yourself as others are seeing you.
Look deep into youself and examine what was said. Try to correct the ways that you dont like if in fact you have discovered that they are indeed so.
These things said about you can turn out to be very helpful in mending your ways and thus making you a better person.
Learn to accept criricism.

Well it is obvious this was not a friend, instead some one who gave an objective opinion. Honestly, this is probably a more accurate description of your character. Friends tell you what you want to hear, stranger/associates tell you what they observe. My suggestion, take this opinion as a constructive criticism, and alter your negative personality trait and make a more positive character change of it.

None of those things are insulting. They're all nice things or the people that wrote them think they're nice. Don't sweat it. If you want to be upset you'll find a reason. Just be happy. It's all good.
