Advice to a 6th grader from an 8th grader: Welcome to middle school. You're gonna be tired, you're gonna wish you were still in elementary school sometimes. The halls are cramped and the teachers are annoying. But just remember do your homework, and stay out of trouble. Pick your friends carefully. Don't worry about how people feel about you cause it doesn't matter. Don't be afraid to dress or act different. That grade on that test does not define you. The friends you have right now probably aren't gonna be your friends when you get to 8th. But I promise you you will have great friends that you wouldn't trade for the world. You'll laugh and cry. Don't try to be perfect. I've walked these halls for three years so take care of it for me, it's a second home. Above all 𝒞𝒽𝑒𝓇𝒾𝓈𝒽 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓈𝑒 𝓎𝑒𝒶𝓇𝓈, 𝒷𝑒𝒸𝒶𝓊𝓈𝑒 𝒾𝓃 𝒶 𝒷𝓁𝒾𝓃𝓀 𝑜𝒻 𝒶 𝑒𝓎𝑒 𝒾𝓉’𝓈 𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓇
