The Weird Kid In ClassThere was a kid in my class who stood up every day and told everyone he had new shoes. This went on for weeks, and we all thought him nuts. Then, one day, he stood up and told us a long story about why his family were moving to another part of the country, and how excited he was. The next thing we heard was that he'd died in a plane crash.
Let's hear about the weird kid in your class...

"The alien exchange student from mars"One day in high school, a new kid turned up. He was WEIRD.
He wasn't weird because of anything he said, and he would spend his lunchtimes hiding in the library, even though (at this stage) he hadn't actually been bullied by anyone. If you saw him, he would move to a different spot. This kid just didn't want to be seen.
He was in the year below mine, yet no-one in that year seemed to actually be in a class with him.
He never actually replied to anyone that tried to talk to him, he'd just keep looking at you, confused, until you walked away. He was a mystery to everyone.
He used to always carry a black book in his blazer pocket. One time a friend of mine snatched it - it was "The A-Z of atomic warfare".
A year later, he disappeared again. Most people didn't even remember him, those that did only knew of him as "The alien exchange student from Mars".
I like to think that my friend averted an interplanetary war by taking that book.
