For example‚ in middle school I was one of the shyest kids in the grade‚ I hated public speaking and I stayed in one group of about ten friends for all four years with no desire to branch out and befriend new people.

It’s been about two months since school has started‚ since middle school has started. I’ve finally gotten used to my schedule and the atmosphere of the school. At times I feel as if school has just begun and summer was yesterday. Sometimes in the hallways‚ I think of my elementary school friend and what they think of middle school.
