Bullied for being a tomboy

My name is Valerie, but I go by Val. The bullying started in 3rd grade. I was picked on by other girls for being a tomboy. I liked sports, ate pizza, and collected action figures (WWE to be exact). It got worse in 4th grade. People started calling me “mud monkey” and “redneck”. In 5th grade, I was thrown in mud by a group of girls. I no longer trust anyone and I’m currently heading to 10th grade.
