Diaries of a Seventh Grader

One Last Note; Seventh Grade Speech

So this is the end of this book.

And, of course, my seventh grade year.

It was pretty shitty I know.

But I wanted to talk about my school year.

My Seventh grade school year to be precise.

I guess you could say I'm just gonna make a little speech.

So here goes;

Seventh Grade.

What much can I say about it?

It's been really interesting.

It's been dramatic.

It's been fun.

It's been weird.

It's been sad.

It's been happy.

It's been a lot of thing!

But really it's been dramatic.

Just really dramatic.

I remember on the last day of 6th grade how I stood on the curb waiting for my dad and just thinking, "Now that 6th grade is over, how will 7th grade be?" And I remember thinking "It will be much better." I also thought it would go by faster. I mean, in 5th grade my teachers had told me "Middle school is going to go by faster each year."

And of course they were right.

Six grade was little slow.

But this year?

Seventh grade?

It was pretty fast.

I can only imagine Eighth Grade now.

Back to this school year.

I really enjoyed the first month of school. I really did. My only concern was that I had none of my friends in any of my classes. Which really, it bummed me out. I struggled a bit with fun in the beginning, but at lunch my friends and I hung out at our little table from 6th grade during lunch, so I loosened up a bit. I had really good grades and kept them through-out the entire school year.

I tried making friends in my classes.

And these wonderful people came to be Kenyala and Dakota in seventh grade.

In orchestra my 6th grade friends, Pantera, Demetri, Josh/Japan, Anna S., and Wendy.

And Sanaa my 8th grade friend who was in my orchestra class.

In 6th and 7th period Emerald who connected with me with feelings and favorite bands (MCR is one).

I did have one friend in 7th period although we never talked and did much.

But yeah.

Seventh grade was Ok for that.

But what made it bad was the new encounters of drama that slapped me in the face.

And my family issues grew as well.

My depression grew. Next thing you know in October I would hide my face in my hood and be depressed.

It was tough.

It got worse for me.

Rumors started which of course was just a bunch of bullshit so people could get attention.

I was brought into by a few friends involved, which of course I really LOVED by the way *Sarcasm*.

Yeah no.

It made worse stuff happen.

Then it got to rejection from some friends, in which got me in quiet modes.

It was as if I had a period every week (Of course not literally.).

Just the emotions.

And I am not an emotion person, but when all this chaos came, I changed into a giant storm cloud of depression.

Of course the school year is over now.

But I do have many realizations of my year and I can learn from a lot.

A few friends came out to be realized as my true friends and I realized some friends were better not to be around.

And to all my friends who helped me through-out all my falls and humiliation.

I love you all.

I really appreciate your help and I thank you for it.

I jus want you to know I will always be there for you when your down.

And if I'm not you can always text me or call me.

I'll always be there even if I'm not literally standing there beside you.

Trust me.

I Promise You I Will Be There When You Need Me.

And usually when I capitalize every first word in a sentence, it's important.

And A Little Something To Those Who Are Reading This (Important):

Middle School is tough but you have to be tougher.

Trust me, just follow this and you should be off to a little bit of a better start.

There may be times where you want to just 'Kick The Bucket' but really;

You'll be ok.

You may not have the people you really need or the ones you want but it's fine.

That's just the start of a new year.

A new reality begins each year.

And within each year you grow.

So really Mashins it'll be ok.

There will be times when you want to cry and hide but you just have to remember when you feel this way that there will have to be a change.

And what is that change?

Well honestly, I don't know.

I don't know because your choosing your own path.

If there's something wrong, fix it.

If you fix it it'll be a little bit less bumpy then what's already happening.

If you forget it, it will just creep up on you in the future and haunt you again.

Change what needs to be fixed or changed and just continue your life.

But through-out all your ups and downs,

You'll Be Ok.

Well, I know this was a pretty cruddy speech.

I'm not really good at speeches.

You can obviously tell, and I'm sorry about that.

But hey, at least give me credit for trying.

So anyways, this is the end of this book I guess.

I will continue writing another book when eighth grade starts.

So be ready when it comes out.

sometime in August.

August 25 I believe is when school starts for me.

So until then Mashins.

*Waves* Bye.
