Even if you don't want to, go to that school dance party. You are in 8th grade, and you are almost stepping up into high school. If you like to go to parties, then great: just go. If you are shy or scared of what the others will think about you, I don't care: just go. This is from personal experience, but you will regret it if you do not make a good middle school memory. When you go to high school, most of your friends will all go somewhere else, and you will be going to school with complete strangers. Make middle school count.
I have to be honest with myself: I only went to one school dance party in my entire middle school life. I always refused to go because I was scared what my friends would think about me. I was afraid I would make a fool of myself. Don't worry: everyone else thinks that about themselves too, and quite frankly, no one really cares what you do. It will be a great chance to make some new memories and friends before you go on into high school, and it will teach you what you have to do when you go up into middle school. I repeat: Go to school dance parties. It will be a total blast.
Your tip to 13 year old's was great. I liked how you had one general idea during this entire blog. I also agree with you. I think people shouldn't be scared to go to parties. They should go to enjoy it with their friends.
ReplyDeleteYou included great details about the middle school experience. I can relate because I barely went to school dances and I regret it because I could have made very memorable moments.
ReplyDeleteThat's some pretty great advice. I myself wish I had this knowledge prior to high school. Keep up the good work.
