Middle School = College?

<p>A lot of people have been saying that college is a huge disappointment. I wouldn't know because I'm still a high school junior. Although, it seems to be like middle school where you are transitioning to something new and when you look back at it you realize how stupid it was.</p>

<p>Middle school was the really awkward time in between the lull of elementary and the seriousness of high school. College, in this case, is a huge/strange line in between being a child and becoming an adult.</p>

<p>So anyway, what was your middle school experience like?</p>

<p>It was fun. I didn’t pay attention at all and just goofed off with friends. When HS came, i changed and became serious.</p>

<p>one of my biggest regrets is even considering takng middle school seriously. its a joke man, just do well enough to get into the good classes for high school, and if you dont your parents can probably petition it anyway</p>

<p>^ I know. Parents can waive their kids up in anything but math. You juts have to take math in middle school seriously and you’ll be fine.</p>

<p>My parents never wanted to wave me in any of the advanced courses… so I got stuck in Algebra 1… in 8th grade.</p>

<p>And this year… they could’ve placed me in physics… but no.</p>

<p>Middle school was so much fun. We didn’t really have cliques, so that probably made it more enjoyable. The drama that happened, however, was effing stupid and pointless. If I had known that I was going to move after all of this I would’ve been so much more chill.</p>

<p>The only bad thing was that academically I didn’t pay attention and got a B in 8th grade for adv. math. I was put in regular math classes until this (junior) year. SMH</p>

<p>My middle school experience consisted of ditching gym, walking out of classrooms with out teachers noticing, getting kicked out of class for laughing too hard, field trips to the museum where i accidentally turned off all the lights in there, and a couple food fights. I definitely miss middle school</p>

<p>My middle school experience was a lot of fun. I went to a small private school so everybody was friends and the whole middle school (about 15 kids) was a giant clique. It wasn’t until high school that people stared being jerks.</p>

<p>Some of the parents were complaining on the lack of discipline, so the teachers got really stern and mean. So, the whole middle school (because we all pretty much were in the same classes) would take turns ticking off the teachers. One teacher would get so made because the whole class would randomly start laughing that she couldn’t write on the chalk board because she kept breaking the chalk. We would get out of home work because she was so ticked!</p>

<p>Although, when I look back on it, I was pretty much stupid. I looked like a huge nerd and an idiot. But, who really cared back then?!? We were all idiots!</p>

<p>On the whole taking Algebra I in middle school. I did that too and so did everyone else in my class (of about 7 kids). I was pretty much the only student that actually gave a care, so I made As. Because my old class (I’m a home schooled junior now) was so small and preppy, everyone was shooting for valedictorian. The school had just told them a couple months before I left (in my sophomore year) that Algebra I actually counted towards their high school GPA, so none of them could qualify for valedictorian. It was pretty darn funny because I was the only one that could qualify and I left! SO MAKE SURE YOU MAKE GOOD GRADES WITH ALGEBRA I!!!</p>

<p>Hung out with my friends, caused trouble, did projects for g&t, had little to no hw, repeat.</p>

<p>En fran</p>

<p>Middle school was amazing. Damn if I could go back…
Everything was so simple. Sigh, nostalgia.
The only thing I hated about middle school was our racist-ass vice principal who wouldn’t let me take advanced math and science because of my skin color. Needless to say, as soon as I got to high school I said “screw it” and skipped the classes that I was “held back” in. **** Memphis middle schools…
My mom’s still angry about it to this day. :)</p>

<p>^^Lawl calembours bilingues sont vachement win :P</p>

<p>I liked middle school but took grades too seriously when they didnt matter at all and were onyl used for placement</p>

<p>Memphis middle schools… smh.</p>

<p>White Station loved me. They didn’t want to put me in algebra 1… and they wanted me in CLUE english… except I was moving to VA when they asked me.</p>

<p>White Station middle raises geniuses/future leaders.
Mt. Pisgah middle (my school) raises drop-outs, drug dealers, hookers, and 16-year-old moms and dads. Oh, and we’re literally in the middle of the forest.</p>

<p>There were geniuses there.</p>

<p>Man that place was competitive. I remember looking at the honor role and I was ****ed for having a 99 in Math, while my good friend(Indian) got a 99. </p>

<p>Still… none of them could touch me in math.</p>

<p>Science… it was all over.
Geography… I stood alone.
English… the teacher loved me.</p>

<p>

For some reason, I find this more pretentious than your usual posts. Maybe it’s just today…?</p>

<p>Even in middle school, MIT was a G.</p>

<p>That was pretentious. Very pretentious.</p>

<p>I miss that cutthroat environment. It brought out the best in me.</p>

<p>White Station high = CC. So many Asians for you to choose from.</p>
