i love "The Shining" also. i used to scare my teens when they watched it.
you know what you're describing is sexual harrassment at school? and i remember school. i was messed with like that and never reported it because i knew what kind of a fuss it would cause. i think teenage boys can be mighty nasty and difficult at times. i'm sorry they do that to you.
i've always been pretty independent. it has it's good and bad points. being alone a lot sucks, but otherwise i'm pretty content.
