Personal Narrative: My Transition From Middle School To High School

As an eighth grader going into high school, I was very scared. I was afraid that I was going to dislike my classes and they would be hard. I thought that the transition from middle school to high school would be terrifying. But I was wrong, my first quarter of high school turned out to be a lot different than I thought it would be.
When I first found out what classes I would be taking in ninth grade, I was worried that I would not do well in them. I was not good at math, so Algebra one made me nervous.

I know that being unsocial is bad for me but I enjoy being alone, I am happier that way so I am not super concerned about myself socially.

That can sometimes lead to me doing not so well on tests or quizzes. Other than the anxiety, I have been doing well
