Over the past few weeks I have been an observer. In my past I have been taking part in what I am now observing. The slow disintegration of friendships, love and life is what I am observing. That may be a tad bit cheesy or overblown but in this writers mind I believe this to be 100% true. Also in the past I have talked about the life as a middle school student. But in the past weeks I have come to a convulsion decision that middle school may very well be the worst possible time in ANYONE’S life. From what I have asked people most of them agree with that statement. Even with my 13th birthday looming in the upcoming days, I still can’t get my mind off of the incomprehensible and terrible life’s that my friends and I suffer because of this terrible time on life.
13 to the Jewish population 13 means adulthood. To me it just means 4 more years of pain and suffering. Throughout the year one of my very good friends has not gone a week without breaking into tears. A seemingly familiar act to me. Bullying and immaturity is mainly what causes my friend to get so upset so much of the time. To juggle activities, academics and popularity makes ones mind burst into flames. And for my friend this happens all to much for her. I try my best to make things better in her life, being a better friend, making her laugh and just try my best but in the end nothing is going to help no matter how hard I try.
I can just tell in her eyes everyday that she doesn’t want to be in the place she is in. And I know that pain all to well. Being ignored and pushed aside is one of the main difficulties I must deal with on a daily basis. I feel terrible for her, she is even thinking about switching schools mid year. I just cannot handle it anymore. So I am putting it out there that adults NEED to be more aware about the challenges that middle school students are facing every day. Please help my friend stay in Denver and help her stop being so sad. Open your eyes everybody can’t you see that were miserable! Please comment and have my best friend not go to a different school. We wish the best for you!
NOAH
