Personal Narrative: My First Year Of Middle School

Decent Essays
Your first year of middle school can be slightly different if you don't know anybody.

The challenges I faced on the first day of school in 6th grade was the fact that I knew no one.It was really hard to get around the place because I knew nobody and asking for help was kind of hard.In class when we had to do group activities it got really awkward because we didn't know each other so there wasn't much communication.The only person I knew was this kid from last year but we didn't have any classes together.

After a couple days I started to talk to people and before I knew it I had friends.Life was much simpler now that I knew other people.It felt good not being the one kid who didn't know everyone else because now I had people to talk to.Now

    It was 5:15 in the morning, and my mother had just finished giving birth to a healthy, 7 pound, baby girl—me. After I was born, my mother had to fend me off from dozens of nurses, who all wanted to hold me and take a look at me. My mother said that I was the chubbiest and cutest baby she had ever seen. My father and mother both cried tears of joy right after I was born. Apparently, I was the only girl to have been born in that hospital that whole night/morning.…

Just about every year before school starts while my mom has meetings for teachers, my dad takes my sister and I on a small, five day trip to different places. This year, we decided to go to St Louis. Little did I know that this trip would soon turn south very, very, fast.…

    This personal narrative is going to be about the first day of Middle School and my experiences as a 6th grader. It is going to go after my emotions and other descriptive details of the first day. I still remember how the seat belt felt tightening across my chest as the car got closer to the Middle School. During that time I knew nothing about being in a big school because the biggest school i've been in was yankee ridge. (Which is really small).…

    “Don’t forget, the paper is due next Wednesday!” My 8th period teacher, Mrs. Oakford told to my class and I as we streamed out of the cramped classroom on a Friday. We couldn’t wait to bust out of the schools doors and claim our prize of a short freedom for surviving another busy, exhausting, and slow week of middle school. I rushed to my locker, grabbed everything I would need for the homework due Monday, threw it in my bag and headed down the hall collecting my friends to walk to town to start what I would hope would be a slow but fun weekend off The weekend went quicker than I wished and before I knew it, it was late Sunday night and I still hadn’t done my homework, I realized this and got to work.…

    Prior to middle school, I thought I was satisfied with my position. I had friends, got along with my teachers, excelled in sports, and got decent grades in my classes. Back then, I thought this well-roundedness I sought between these necessities would offer me self-satisfaction. Little did I know, however, that I was going to confront this well-rounded nature of mine during my first awards ceremony in middle school. Among the most intelligent, artistic or athletic of the students present there, I was the one of the few who simply struggled to stand out.…

    In the seventh grade, I faced a large transition in life. The previous year I had experienced middle school for the first time, but I would make that entrance again.

I took on those same fears and hopes that I had faced before, but in an unfamiliar place where I had no one except for family to give me support. I tried a lot of new things that year, mainly wrestling.…

    It was towards the end of summer, all of the stores began to fill with school supplies and the aroma of brand new pencils and crayons filled your nose as you walked In. The end of summer gives me mixed emotions, I'm excited to begin school shopping but I'm also sad to start the school year. Kids my age always get the same questions this time of year, “are you ready to start the school year” or “have you began to think about what college you'd like to go to”. But this year when these questions began to flutter in I wasn't even close to the point of thinking about school and grades, I was ready to go on vacation. My mom announced to my sister Haley and I at the end of last school year that my grandma and grandpa have rented out a house In Fair Haven, we have a very large family.…
