I feel so strange now....

Posted

Note: DON'T ASSUME BY THE TITLE THAT I FEEL STRANGE BECAUSE I TOOK DRUGS OR SOMETHING. xD Its for a totally different reason. :P

 

 

I've finally graduated from Middle School, and everyone thinks i should be happy and full of joy, because i'm finally going on summer vacation.  But, I'm not. Instead I feel like i have a huge hole inside me, never to be filled again. I feel kinda depressed(Which is bad, considering im only 13), leaving behind Middle School.

 

I'm guessing the reason i feel the way i do, is because of how different my Elementary and Middle School's were, in terms of how i felt going to them.

 

My experience with Elementary school was complete sh*t. I was labeled weird and a freak by most kids, which was understandable since i talked to myself out loud(My dad does it, so it affected me), and did weird things, but only because i was bored. It wasn't until 4th grade that i actually made friends. Then 5th grade came, and i was bullied the whole school year. Those years over there made me feel so relieved and so ecstatic to leave school, and made me feel like i never wanted to go back.

 

But Hillsdale was completely different. It was awesome, meeting all the great teachers, doing all those fun activities, and meeting all the amazing friends and peers that were there. It provided a friendly experience that my elementary almost completely lacked. That, and the fact that i matured a great deal more, and got rid of many of the bad qualities that i had in elementary. It was the best experience of my life to date, i can honestly say.

 

And now im leaving it all behind, and heading to high school. Im going to miss all of my amazing teachers, not to mention the incredible friends that are going to other high schools that i probably won't see again for a long time. All of this, makes me actually MISS SCHOOL for a change. I'm genuinely surprised, but i guess since Elementary was so crappy, it planted a message in my brain that every other school would be as bad. But i was so wrong, and im glad for that. I can only hope that High School will be close to being as good as middle school, if not better.

Well kids can be cruel . But not everyone is, and so try to give high school the benefit of the doubt . Have confidence in yourself that you are a person worth getting to know and have an optimistic friendly attitude and hopefully good things will happen for you . Life is just starting for you my friend and adversity will only make you stronger and teach you to be compassionate and more empathetic so you will know how to treat other people in life. I'm sure you will be just fine.

I had this same feeling when I was leaving primary school to go to secondary school. but it all turned out fine! Just stay in touch with your friends from middle school and it should be good. I managed to make lots of friends very easily! Also try to visit your middle school sometimes and see how they are getting on. Don't worry! I'm sure it will be fine! :)

Thanks! I'll remember that. Ill try to visit when i can.

Transitions are always scary, no matter how subtle, but sadly they need to happen and i know just how you feel.

the important thing is just be yourself, after that nothing matters, remember that and you'll be fine, show everyone the same face and then no matter how bad things get you will always be happy with yourself and know you couldnt have done any better ;)

You can think of high school as middle school +10.  You and the people around you have a greater capacity for being cool people and making wonderful friends, but they also have a greater capacity for being total dicks.  After all, high school kids are older and can do things middle schoolers can't (like drive and/or have better access to illegal drugs).  I'm lucky enough to come from a school that was pretty good, but I know not everyone has my luck, so tread lightly.

I was bullied a lot in Elementary school too,mainly for being shy and not speaking up.Middle school was pretty nice for me also,being in my school rock band gave me a chance to open up to people and not be as shy as I was.I actually just graduated middle school also and...yeah.I'm honestly really nervous for high school and a little upset leaving my teachers behind.But hey,it's going to be a new experience and a new start in a way so I say all us new high school kids should try to enjoy high school why we can :D

Thats kinda how i was, except i didnt open thanks to Rock Band, i just had good friends that helped me be more open and make more friends. Im kinda upset about leaving my teachers too, but im gonna get over it sooner or later.

Good luck! There's nothing wrong with high school. It's just boring half the time.
