Hey Pandas, I’m Worried About What To Do In Middle School, Any Advice? (Closed)

What advice do you have for me about middle school?

My daughter is starting Middle school too! I know it's changed a lot since I went, but I think there are some universal truths: It's going to be awkward. Everything will be, but it gets better. But ignore the haters (Middle school is notorious for meanness). Pay attention in class, join a club or volunteer in school, and stay true to yourself. Friends will change, but that's okay you'll find your group and they love you for who you are.

Thanks! this is great advice! None of my friends are going to my middle school I can text all of them (I have 2 friends) so hopefully I don’t lose them but I think I’m going to join the tennis team. So I’ll probably make new friends. (While keeping the other ones)

I am just leaving middle school, so I can give you some advice. Don't be someone that you are not because it makes the real you harder to find. Also, be organized, it really helps, especially in harder classes.

What if I told you I’m a hardcore Marvel nerd I always have my headphones on listening to 80’s music and rock while chewing bubblegum unless I’m eating my favorite Maruchan noodles while rewatching any marvel movie or on my Nintendo slapping creepers in the face with my enchanted diamond sword while humming the immigrant song by Led Zeppelin. Should I show that?

Probably don’t overwhelm yourself at first by taking too many electives/advanced courses. Just try out a lot of things, and if you don’t like something don’t take it again! Electives can be a great way to try out new things and learn new stuff so definitely take something out of your comfort zone, but don’t overdo it.

Don't change a single thing about who you are. You'll regret it eventually. Also know that you are awesome and no one can deny that. I had a lot of insecurities and judged myself a lot but just know you're great. Find what you want to do, explore! Join clubs, make friends, ditch someone toxic, and have fun. If you need help in any way along your path find someone to help you and for you to confide in. Seems a bit over the top, but middle school unleashes he time of great physical and mental changes that can affect your welfare. Don't slack on schoolwork either. Stress is not a good thing for your body.

I'm going to high school next year, so I obviously survived middle school. My advice to you is BE YOURSELF. Don't pretend to be someone you're not to fit in, because then you have to keep that act up until you graduate, or else everybody will know you aren't really who you say you are. you will find people like you and make friends, there are people similar to you. Do what makes you comfortable, don't be afraid to laugh or cry or argue for what you believe in. Middle school were honestly the best years of my life, I promise you'll be fine.

Stay away from fake people, no matter how desperate you are for company. Even if they are all you have stay away from them

Just leaving middle school so I can help. Focus as best as you can it halos a lot in classes even if you don’t understand the things your learning. Don’t be afraid to ask for help sometimes, there will be a lot of teachers who want to help you and want you to succeed. No matter how many people get you down still be yourself and don’t forget your true self. Lastly try your hardest and do your best ,it will help

While it’s been a very long time since I’ve been in the 7th through 9th grade. (They used to call it Junior High School. Your friendship will change. That’s OKAY. Your tastes in things will change. That’s OKAY. Most popular does not mean you will be like that through into adult world. Be honest. With others, and yourself. Your friends will like you for who are inside.
