Friends in Middle School

   Kids can be mean. One second you think they are your friend, the next they are off with someone else and they are acting like you don't exist. It happened to me before. These things are called friend switches. And I know, it hurts. I needed to find some new friends who would talk to me, and accept me for who I am. And I did. I found new friend in elementary school, and some in middle school. They are the coolest people I have ever met and we can be ourselves around each other. Every day I look around at my group of friends and I feel happy because of all these wonderful people who are in my life and I appreciate them so much. They like me for me and I like them for the people they are. Friends will be ever-changing, and I found my group where I am loved for who I am.
   Middle school is such a great place to meet new people because you have so many classes! And in each class, there is a new group of people. You may have something in common with some of the people in your classes. All it can take to start a friendship is saying hi and asking their name. They may be shy and looking for someone to talk to. Reach out to them and who knows, they may become your next best friend!
   Another thing I want to say is something very important as well. This is something that I have been focusing very hard on in middle school. Surrounding myself with good people who you can be yourself around, and they can do the same. Good people are the ones you can trust and the ones that build each other up. They are there during the fun and hard times. They will always like you for the person you are. Good friends will be there for you.

Lunch in middle school doesn't have to be scary!

   The campus is sooooo big! There are so many people, you could be in a shopping mall! That is how busy middle school lunch areas can be. But it doesn't have to be that scary! Here are some steps you can take to make middle school lunch time more enjoyable:

Step #1: Talk to your friends before lunch on where you are going to meet.

Step #2: Establish a lunch spot, and sit there consistently so that you and you and your friends always know where to meet during lunch. If you don't tell your friends where you are during lunch, your friend might have to search the whole school before they find you. If you are going to change lunch spots, make sure all of your friends are notified, and know where the new meeting place is.

Step #3: Meet your friends at your new lunch spot and bon appetit!

Once you know where to meet your friends, lunch time will be a breeze, and you won't have to worry about trying to find them in the lunch time student frenzy. No more lunch time worries!

Why You Need Study Buddies in Middle School

   Uh, oh. You forgot to write down the math homework in your agenda! And your teacher doesn't have a website that he/she puts the class work and homework in! What are you going to do? Call your study buddy! What are study buddies? Study buddies are people in each of you classes that can help you with questions about homework and class notes. If you were absent, call your study buddy from each of the classes you missed and ask about the homework that was assigned and the class notes so that you are ready for the next time you have the classes.

  How to get study buddies Choose two or more friends from each class that you have and ask for their numbers so that if you forget the homework(or if they forget the homework) you can text each other to find out what the assignment was and GET IT DONE on time.
