So, most of the crazinest starts with my family. I have five other siblings. Which means, that counting me, I have eight people in my family, plus my dog, Sadie. Some of you can already see the problem. My siblings , starting from oldest to youngest, are Jason, Rebecca, Troy, Ryan, me, and Grace. Jason and Rebecca are in college, they both go to San Diego State University. Troy and Ryan are both in high school, and I'm in middle school. Grace is still in elementary. My house is never peaceful and quiet. There is always someone late for basketball, or dance, or piano, or something else. Which means lots of yelling. One thing about our family is that we are never on time. Plus, my dad works full time, so he is way gone before most of my family even wakes up. My mom is very stressed in the morning , she isn't a morning person. (Reason 1 we are always late) Fortuanatlly, I am a morning person, I usually go to school on my bike to avoid the morning craziness. Thankfully, I'm old enough to do that now I'm in middle school.

After school is even crazier with quick getting snacks, getting dressed for out of school activities, and rushing everyone out the door. On Tuesdays and Thursdays when I don't have sports, I avoid it all. You can find me in the basement with Bose headphones and a comfy blanket on the couch escaping that mad house. If you have ever experienced that, I'm sorry, there is not much you can do. If you have any advice for me I would gladly accept it.

Then, in second place for the most craziness, is school. My school is very big, which is sometimes good for a shy girl like me. My best friends are the opposite of me they are loud, outgoing, and the opposite of shy. One thing we have in common, is pretty much, our age. We are all in 7th grade. But, I love them. They always have my back. Unlike the other people in my class, they are a different story. I don't like to admit it, but I'm usually the one that is 95% to be bullied. Part of that is because I'm shy, but the other part is mostly because I'm super clumsy. You know the one at the school concert who falls flat on their face walking on/ off the stage, yea, that's me. I don't even know how many times I've done that. Usually if I'm getting bullied, no one even knows it. If my friends find out, they save me. They run over to him/ her and a couple minutes later, they are back looking satisfied. If my friends dont know, it could be years before they stop. I am lucky to have my friends. They are lifesavers. But, sometimes they can be SUPER annoying. They are obbsesed with knowing all the 7th grade news first. They call themselves the "Love Experts." I think they are crazy. If you are like me, you just go along with it.

My friends are sooo obssesed with finding out everyone's crushes and stuff like that. They have this idea, that everyone has a crush. That may be true for you or your friends, but not for me. And, it is, until 8th grade...
