My Freshman year in high school, I had a lot of problems with myself stereotyping other students. My Freshman year I tried so hard to fit in with the upper classman. At that time the cool kids were making fun of alot of the underclassmen. I always tried fitting in with them though. One of the kids I tended to stereotyped the most with was one of my classmates. I always thought he was weird just because of the way he looked, but after one day in class I dropped some papers and I couldnt pick them up, Troy the kid that I always made fun of picked and after he picked the papers up I thanked and that eventually led into about a ten minute conversation. After the conversation I ended up being friends with him. Ever since then I havent stereotyped the typical people that I used to.
