#8 if you really knew me

We don't have that show in Austria and we don't have something like challenge day in Austria.. I think that's a really good thing to bring to a school!


In this episode you could see the change between "hey I am cool/funny/popular/athletic/.." and "we all have our own more or less dramatic story".. they were all so real and honestly I cried when we watched the episode! 


I am not that long at that school but I realized that there a many different groups and cliques.. I don't know anything about the most students here but I am not sure if the other students know a lot about each other.. I think to bring challenge day to IDCI is a really good idea to stop the "gossiping" about other students, cliques or/and groups! And I think it would make the "climate" at school a lot better..


I think the whole idea of challenge day is amazing.. everybody who is part of challenge day gets the chance to tell his/her own story! Most of the people are afraid to tell their story because they think they are alone and nobody will understand them.. but if they see that they are not alone they would probably feel more included in the school and the whole community..


To be honest I wouldn't want to be part of it at that school because I hardly know anybody and to share my story with people I have never seen before in my life would be really hard! I don't even share my story with all of my best friends (I have a really big group of really good friends in Austria and not even half of them know about my story.. I just told my best.. BEST friends and my boyfriend.. ).. 


To bring that to IDCI is a good thing.. it will (hopefully) help people to understand somebody's character or behaviour, stop bullying, stop gossiping, .. And it will help students to know that they are not alone!
