The life of a middle school 7'th grader is complicated. For one, your so used to sixth grade and being pushed around by the eighth graders, at first you think you've finally mastered standing up to them over the summer! But the truth is, now that your a seventh grader the eighth graders down't even care enough to bug you. Sixth graders are fresh meat, they have no idea what to expect, there so clueless the eighth graders think they can just take advantage of that, by giving them dirty looks, and pushing them around. And let me tell you, i was one of those girls who tried to stand up to them, but failed. So my best advice to you sixth graders is to just ignore them.
Than of course there's the drama. Seventh grade is DEFINITELY the year that you get into fights with your old friends, like " I liked him first!" and what not. Than it's the time you start to turn into the typical bratty teenager, and trust me, i already know i'm turning into one. Parents: We try not to, and half the time we have no idea that we're hurting you, or we're being rude. But we can't help it. It's a phase.
It's the time we start to think about everything that's wrong with us. Hair, face, body, expressions, clothes, life in general, and fat. I've heard SO many things around my school of people thinking they're fat. They start to think that they're ugly, and not beautiful. But the truth is...you guys are! We all have our flaws, and we all of something that's special about us. For example: I really don't like my hair. It's frizzy, it's a mess, it's poofy, and it's full of tangles. I'll brush them out, but they just keep coming back. Does it mean i'm ugly? NO!!!!!
Almost all of my friends beat themselves up for it, and to me, that's stupid. I love who i am, and you should too. You also shouldn't listen to what people say. They'll say mean things and they can be a hater tot. But you really shouldn't listen to them. They just want to mess with you.
Well i think I've written a lot. So i'll see you all in my next post! BYE FOR NOW!!!!!!

Very true val! It reminds me of 2 years ago. 7th grade was one of my favorite years of school. When you get to be an 8th grader, just remember what it felt like when you were a 6th grader, and stop the tradition. Not like you need the reminder, but always remember to have fun, but realize when its time to focus.
