Sorry, there is no such thing...

Things will definatly be a lot better for you outside of high school. I have never figured out why kids and teenagers feel the need to be cruel to others. People that work for a living have a different view on the world. The fact that you are well-spoken, and pursue knowledge will actually be to your advantage when you are about 19 or so and older. Also, girls really go for the multiracial thing. There are girls out there that are in your exact same situation. They are not ugly, but they aren't about to win any Miss Teen Popular contests. They are funny and smart and kind. They are looking for guys like you mostly. Guys who are fun to be around. These kind of girls know more than anyone else that really good looking guys can be real jerks. (of course, there are exceptions to ALL rules.) These girls know how important it is to find someone that will like them for who they are, not what they can do for someone else (like a trophey girlfriend or sex or etc...)

Being a teenager these days is very hard. Gaining self confidence has to come from within. There is no 12 step program for it. You must simply make good decisions that you can be proud of and know that you are doing the right thing. In order to find Miss Right, you must first be Mr.Right.
