I’ve always enjoyed the rush of performing. The stare of thousands of eyes on you, the music ringing loudly in your ears. Sometimes, though, it’s too much. My whole life is a performance, always pushing me to be perfect in the suddenity of the moment. Don’t be fooled however, it’s a horrible show I always put on.

Luckily, I was right. This middle school was full of people I had known from before 4th grade and bullying was very sparse. It was a lovely experience.
