Journal entry #21


 Middle school in my eyes is some of the best few years of school. Between sixth and eighth grade many things changed and many things remained the same. I am going to be comparing and contrasting life from sixth grade to eighth grade, since it is my last year in middle school. I have faced many challenges throughout my middle school years, but as I look back on it now, I realized that is has all payed off. I can also say that I have succeeded through my middle school years with the help and support of my family.

   In my middle schools many things were different, at each point. Between all grades one of the differences I look at now is how for each grade I attended a different schoool. For sixth grade I attended Bishop. Next, I left to Illinois and attended Marlowe Middle school for seventh grade. Finally, I am ending my middle school years attending Untalan Middle school. Another difference I have faced throughout middle school is the work. In sixth grade things seeme so easy. As I got to seventh grade it seemed tough, but I made it through. However, eighth grade was nothing  compared to what I thought was tough in seventh grade, it was much harder. Another differences I have noticed is how in sixth and eighth grade I rode the bus, but in seventh grade I rode the bus or walked to school. The last thing that I realized was different is the feeling i felt during the time. In sixth grade I was new to school, and I felt like I was starting back in kinder. As well as seventh grade, I was just in the middle and I still felt like the little one. Finally, eighth grade came, and from what I have experienced and learned, I feel so much older and ready for high school. My last difference, that I have just noticed changed, is that I made many friends I will always remember, and there were people I called friends, that weren’t really friends.

  Aside of the differences that went on through my middle school years, some things remained the same. One of the biggest things I see remained the same is how I played sports in seventh grade, as well as eighth grade. Another thing that was remained the same is how every step of the way I get support from my family, similarly how my friends support me. One of the biggest thing that has remained the same is how every year has its tough point, I always manage to find a way to succeed. One similarity that has stood out through all my years, is how I have always managed to come in principles list, or high honors. In other words, it has given me the confidence to be anything. Finally, another one of the biggest things that has remained the same, is how every new year, I use what I have learned from the previous years to help me in my current year.

  In conclusion I have come to remember that in each grade I always sat in class wondering when the school year would end. Come to realize, that each school year was just another building of confidence, an extension to the education, and the test to see if you are willing to do anything it takes to succeed. As I had mentioned, seventh and eighth grade I got the chance to be in sports all year long. Being in sports has changed my attitude. Before, I didn’t enjoy working in groups as much, and wasn’t into making new friends everyday. Then, when I joined sports, it made me learn to work with others, and get along with other. Throughout the years of middle school, my personality has changed a whole lot. To start out with sixth grade, I was still a bit immature because im fresh out of elementary, I didn’t know much. Then seventh grade, I was getting the whole feeling of being in middle school, but even at that I changed from liking boys, to learning that just little things we wont realize until we get older. Finally, eighth grade I realized that I became more matture. I took more time to do homework, then just wanting to play outside. I took more effort in trying, then just giving up and asking a friend to borrow their paper. Now, that my middle school years our at its end, I have done so much to prepare for high school, and the reality ill be facing.
