Every 3 months the Drama Class put on another performance and every 3 months Nikki tried out. Her acting skills, to say the least, left a lot to be desired. And with her none-too-pleasing appearance her acting skills would have to be nearly perfect if Nikki even wanted a chance.
She had a pimpled, dimpled face. Her freckles covered
nearly every inch of her body. Her red hair seemed to get greasier every day. She wore ridiculous oversized T-shirts and pinstriped shorts, and if you looked up the word “geek” in the dictionary there would be a huge picture of Nikki pasted smack dab in the middle of the page. Or maybe that had just been the class prankster. Nikki didn’t know. She didn’t really care, either. She was used to people making fun of her. It was a part of life for her. Although the rest of the school didn’t seem to think she realized it, as they continued to try and make every day torture for her, unsuccessfully.

Is her picture really in the dictionary? I didnt understand that part. I would take out the line about the class prankster and start the third paragraph with the sentence "Nikki was used to people making fun of her..."

You are missing a comma here and there and the last line needs to have the word "as" taken out of the middle.

Wow this is a very sad piece. Is Nikki ever going to get a part? Or is she the ugly duckling who is going to wake up pretty one day? C.

I revised my own revision!! Hope you like it and it helps

....if Nikki were to stand a chance., instead of "If Nikki even wanted a chance."

instead of " dimpled " try scabbed face.

She could never seem to get her greasy red hair clean enough. , instead of "Her red hair seemed to get greasier every day."

The hugely over sized T-shirts she wore, even though mistaken for lack of self esteem, was just another way of saying she didn't care about what they thought.

It seemed the whole school was out to fill each day for her with torture. They were completely unaware of their failings in this manner. Even after pasting her picture next to the word geek in the dictionary belonging to the school library, she remained indifferent to their attempts at derision.( or persecution) It would only add yet another layer to her thick skin which would only prove itself as her most worthy protector.
