    My middle school years

    when i first started middle school i was a little nervous and my mom was still dressing me which is a little embarrassing.Later on in time i made friends and lost friends. I had learned a lot about myself and my families history around this time. Even though i had learned a lot it was nothing compared to what i learned in high school.
  • My 14th Birthday

    This birthday was the most interesting because i had to get surgery. I had woken up and my stomach was hurting. i didn't think anything of it so i went to school. Later, on in my classes i couldn't even move because of how bad it hurted. So i went to the nurse and vomited in the middle of the hallway. My mom came to pick me up and we went to the hospital. They checked what was happening and said i had to get my appendix removed.
  • First year of High School

    It was scary. I came into this new school and none of my friends were there and everything was so new. I made new friends and lost connection with my old ones. This first year of high school was an interesting experience because of this one boy.
  • My Sophomore Year

    This year was best year besides the pandemic. I got closer to my best friend and made a new one. A bad thing that had happened this year is my fight with my best friend. i had trusted her with a personal thing and she told her Girlfriend that i didn't like. We weren't talking for two weeks and it was very sad for me because she's like my sister. Later on we started talking and i learned a lot about myself and it made me a better friend and made us closer.
