First Day of Middle School I was trudging to school on a crisp summer day. I had lazily wriggled myself out of bed about a half an hour ago. It was my first day of school at Sartell Middle School and I was shaking in my shoes I was so nervous. I was a 7th grader and had just switched schools to Sartell. My previous school was much smaller than Sartell was. I had no idea what to expect, all I knew was that I better not forget my locker combination and had better remember where my Student Advisory room was. The walk to school was the worst part, I thought it would take about ten minutes, all of which my mind was conjuring up worse and worse scenarios for the day. I thought that I might forget my locker combination, thus making me late. I also thought that I might not be able to find my Student Advisory room, forcing me to go to the office shamefully and ask for directions and be walked to class like a toddler by an adult. The school slowly crept into my view as I meandered past the edge of the tree line. I could see …show more content…

I began to think that I was not alone in thinking that I would mess up and be awkward the first day of school. Obviously, my parents had told me as most parents do that being nervous is healthy, natural, and normal. They also said that everyone else would be just as nervous as me or more nervous. However, I did not believe them. How many times does someone believe their parents when they are in middle school anyways?

At 5:45 AM the alarm on my phone blared some generic default tone that I had never gotten around to changing. This was probably the earliest I’ve ever gotten up in my entire life. I groggily removed myself from the pile of blankets on the floor that I had been sleeping in and headed for the shower, brushed my teeth, washed my face and searched my near empty closet for something to wear on my first day of school. Although I was absolutely exhausted and there was yet to be any furniture in my room, I was thrilled to be transferring to Pattonville High School in midst of my junior year and living in a bigger house in a better community.

There are unspoken rules when it comes to society and how we are “supposed” to function in certain settings or situations. High school, of course, is no exception, being a somewhat obligated rite of passage in our society as an aid to our educational development. Freshmen year you are pushed to discover what these unwritten rules and normals are, either through trial and error or by getting clued in before time. I experienced a little bit of both over my four years of high school, coming out of it with a better understanding of my high school’s culture.

In the duration of my middle school years, I maintained excellent grades, except I had just one issue that held me back from a satisfying life. That issue was the fact that friends came very hard to me in my middle school years. Before my struggles at my middle school, Trafton, I had a very productive social life in the Elementary school I attended, Roberts Elementary. Here, it was very easy to make friends and have a great social life, since no hard work was required as a kid. Middle school, however, was a great challenge for me.
