*sigh* I remenbered when I started middle school its not that bad really.

1. On the first day do NOT wear anything uncomfortable, you will regret it seriously.

2. Don’t share your locker with anyone, especially if you are messy and just throw crap into your locker.

3. Its not as hard as you think. Big kids don’t throw you in lockers, though they will mess you up if you annoy them. So don’t act like a smart alec just because you are in middle school.

4. Try to make new friends in the classes that you have no one to talk to. They come in handy with homework and when you need a partner for a project, plus they can become a really good friend.

5. I higly agree with AJ on the dating fact. Really what can you do when your 12?? Dating in middle school is stupid to me, the relationships last like 3 weeks. So don’t be pressured to date.

6. Don’t fall into stupid cliques and beware of the evil people.

7. Hmm lets see oh lunch. Its pretty much the same. Though you might have assigned seats but people usually start moving to sit by their friends after a month.

8. Please try to follow the dress code. There is nothing worse than a bunch of 6th graders dressing like hochies trying to impress the older kids. Plus there is always one teacher (at least) that is crazy and will catch you wearing short shorts or something.

9. After all this jabber I have to say the best thing you should do is be yourself. Sick of hearing that? Well so am I but its true. Being fake and stupid just might make middle school hell.

Anyway I hope this helped and I hope you have fun starting middle school.

6th grade was pretty cool for me. You get to do a whole lot of new stuff like you get lockers and 7-8 different teachers (depending on your school). You don’t get recess, which wasn’t a big deal to anybody in my school. Here are a couple tips that I could think of:

1. DONT RUN TO YOUR CLASSES!!! There is no need for you to run at all unless you are extremely late. Running everywhere will just make you seem more like a franticky little 6th grader.

2. Don’t act like your all that just because you’re in middle school now. You really aren’t any of that.

3. Don’t smart off to the older kids, or try to say something to make you look smart or funny. You may be smart in your grade, but most of the older kids are smarter than you. And don’t remind them of the rules or tell them not to be mean or anything, then they really get annoyed. Mostly, if you stay quiet around the older kids, occasionally talking about how you didn’t like this teacher or something, then they will like you and take you under their wing.

4. Don’t try to stand up to any of the older kids. There really aren’t any bullies that take your lunch money or whatever, but some kids do like to use words to get to you. If someone is bothering you, don’t try to act tough and stand up to them, go tell a teacher or write a statement in the dean’s office.

5. Have fun and try not to get involved in a lot of drama. Trust me, theres a whole ton of drama in middle school, and if you steer clear of the drama queens, you’ll be happy.

6. You’re only like 12 years old. YOU DONT NEED TO START DATING YET. You may think you’re mature enough, but you’re really not. You have plenty of time in high school. Middle school “dating” is really just some kids who say they are going out, but really all they do is walk around, occasionally holding hands, but they never actually go on dates.

Well there you go, that’s all the stuff I could think of that annoyed me about 6th graders last year. But that was just that particular 6th grade class, they usually aren’t that terribly annoying. 7th graders will be ok with you, cuz they were you last year, but 8th graders seem to get more agitated about 6th graders, so just stay out of their hair. Have fun!

I love watching cars turn left
The biggest things to remember are

1. Turn in your assignments when due. At least here you lose a letter grade for each day it it late.

2. There will always be some kid with something bad to say about something. Ignore them and they stop. Get upset and you are their new target.

3. Have fun, get involved with activities.
