Life is not a bed of roses, it is a rollercoaster ride full of ups and downs, but all you gotta do is enjoy the ride.
There will be times when you get chances to make your dreams come true and there will be moments when you feel so heartbroken that you wish that a hole open up in the ground and swallow you up.
Getting humiliated in public while you are in your high school can be one of those moments. And no one else can better understand this feeling than Dakota Nelton, a high-school sophomore from Gray, Louisiana, who was rejected by her friend to not dance with him and later on was humiliated by his classmates.
