At lunchtime on the same day they were talking about me during lunchbreak. They were going on about how I was a good all round singer but I went a bit flat. I know this coz someone in the group told me. They don't really understand that it takes a lot of bravery to do a solo with nothing else apart from yourself. One of the girls has been really horrible to me ever since but I already know that she hates me and hates me even more because I am a goody-goody boffin type of person at school. She absolutely hates it when I get into the limelight and she was really sarky about it. A lot of people were really sarcastic about it and were really mean about it. What do I do?? I have had problems in my tutorbase all year and I have spoken to my head of year but there is not a lot that he can do because he says that it could make it worse. HELP!!!!!!

If that doesn't help ask them have you got a problem with me and talk with them, it could help. Try and get through to that girl aswell i know it's hard, but she could be the sorce of the problem. Hope this helps and good luck!

Keep practicing your singing and work out the flats. Some day you might be able to use those skills. You're very brave for singing in front of that kind of people without background music. It must feel a bit nervous and kind of "naked".
It's a pity that your classmates don't appreciate you giving of yourself like that. The girl who's mean to you is probably just jealous, like you say. There are always people like that, but they seem to be much worse and more common in high school.
I'm just sorry that I can't offer you any advice on how to make your classmates behave nicer, but at least I can tell you that these people might be like kings in high school but their attitude is generally not appreciated in the real world so they are less common out there.
