My first day of 6th grade I was scared and nervous. When I saw someone I knew I got excited and I rushed over to Kyra. Our conversation was normal. We both were excited to see each other. Later came another girl ,Leaira she instantly sat with us. Then we all planned to sit with each other at lunch. The next day we all became social with other people. The 3rd day was a debating on who was popular or not. About a month into my 6th grade year we met another girl named Akia. We all began to be the talk of the school. We was the ones you came to if you needed or wanted to know anything. Then we all became friend on Facebook. Later I told my friends who I thought was cute although I didn't like him a lot then. But over time i started liking him more. But when there's a boy who is really popular and cute of course there's going to be a girl in the way of your dreams with that guy, well it was this girl who I highly disliked. Of course when you're young there's gonna be friends who try to get you to fight someone. Well there was a problem with me and her because the guy I liked was her boyfriend. But nothing really happen at that time. About a month later they broke up and about 3 or 4 weeks later he told kyra to tell me that he likes me. After that he got another girlfriend her name was Daijah. She obviously didn't like me even though she didnt know me. The sad part about it is that i was loosing my so called friends to her. She took my best friends away in a snap. But i did still have Kyra and Akia to talk to. When i did talk to Leaira is was on facebook. 

One day when i got home i was so pissed because during the school day Daijah was staring at me. like ever move i made she made. it was really annoying and the thing is noone really believe that she was doing it and or no one was paying attention. well anyway when i got home i went onto facebook and said somthing about what happen that day , only i didnt say it i just let it be. but that status recieved 39 comments in 1 hour. the next day at school it was a normal day. but when i got home i saw that Leaira had wrote on my status saying "I See You Ain't Say That Shit To Her Face" then i commented back "Why would i? theres no point she just gone keep doing it" so then the guy i had a crush on commented and he called me a bitch. i was young so i thought i was the shit. i responded "Luh Boy i don't know you so poof be gone". and that was the end of that conversation.  

Now i'm obviously in 8th grade. I Look back on this story and find that popularity isnt always the best way to prove yourself in Middle school. You should hang around people that support you , that will help you when your grades are bad. You should be aware of the people around you. Make sure you are friends with people who are At or Above your level of education. make sure the people you hang around act similar to you. the ones that make you laugh when you're down. Don't limit yourself. Be yourself . dont try to fit in with the popular. It's Totally NOT worth it. but heres something you can do. There are people who are smart and also popular. if you wanna be popular make sure the people that are popular have Mostly A's never the less B's. Till this day i don't talk to Kyra , Akia or Leaira. this is what i got from them this 8th grade school year:

Kyra: Tbh: iMiss You We Should Chill More.

Akia: She pulls my hair alot . & i slap her for it.

Leaira: Can i use your pencil sharpner? (iHave one class with leaira)

Therefore. If you think my story has a true meaning. please Comment and tell me how it was. because this story is 10000% True. It really makes me happy when i go back to this past memory because when i was in 6th grade i was way to focused on being popular i forgot about my grades. I had B's & C's. I know that seems good but B's and C's are limiting yourself. you should always Shoot for the highest score you can ever get.

Thank You For Reading. I Was inspired to share this story by my good friend Meichelle Reid.
