When I was in the sixth grade was the first time that I started to go to a school that had one teacher for each class. The school I went to before was a one room school house where there was only one teacher for all the grades. This was going to be a new experience for me going to a larger school.
On the first day of school. I had no idea we’re to go and what to do. The worst thing was I had no idea where the bathroom was and I really had to take a pee.
I was looking around and crossing my legs and holding onto my thing so the pee would not leak out which I usually did anyways.
An older boy came up to me and asked if I had a problem.
I looked at him and said what do you think? I am sorry I did not mean to be so rude like that. I have to take a pee and holding onto my thing and I do not know where the bathroom is.
“Come on I will show you were the bathroom is.”
We went down into the basement were the bathroom is. When I walked into the bathroom I ran up to the urinal. I looked over at him and said,
“These are huge.”
I finished peeing and turn around while I was putting my thing back into my jeans. He smiled at me. I asked if there was something wrong.
“There is nothing wrong at all.” He kept on smiling. Then he asked me how old I was.
“I am eleven and in the sixth grade.” “How old are you?”
“ I am twelve and in the seventh grade.” “Are you sure you are eleven?”
“Yes I am eleven..... Why?”
“Because you have a much bigger dork than the rest of the eleven year-olds I have seen before.”
“Well that is what the older boys always told me at my last school I went to.” “I went to a one room school house and most of the boys there were farmers like I am.” It seemed to me they also had big things too. “Maybe it is because I am a farmer is why it is so big.
“Yea maybe that is it.
I finished zipping up my jeans.
In an elder tone, he tells me,
“Listen you had better try to dry that wet spot off before you go back to your class room,
you will get teased for sure.”
“Oh well! I don't mind if I get teased.” “I got teased at my other school also for having a wet spot in my jeans, happens to me all the time.”
We introduce ourselves to each other. He asked me to be his friend. I said it would be an honor to be his friend.
“You are very polite. “
“I was brought up that way by my grandparents to respect everyone and to be nice.
We left for our class rooms.
Even though some kids might tease others, there was no such thing as bullying back when I was in school. Maybe that was because the school was kind of small. One thing that was nice about the basement bathroom... you could fool around in there and not get caught. because you could hear anyone coming down the wooden steps.

I understand what you're trying to put across. I went to boarding school and slept in a dormitory with 23 other boy's. There was one blond boy in there who was the very promiscuous. I don't think he ever had any sleep the whole time I was in there. I kept him awake most nights .
