Personal Narrative: My Junior High Years

Over the course of my junior high years, there have been some big changes in my life. So much has changed within my family, friends, style, appearance, maturity, height, and who I am as a person. Academically my grades have stayed above a 90 throughout my entire junior high experience, so there wasn’t much of a change in that category.

I’d like to enjoy junior high for a little while longer. Over the past two years I have changed so much, but one of the biggest changes is within my friends. When I first started Junior High in seventh grade, I had very few classes with any of my friends. It was really hard to spend time with them throughout the day, so I found a new group of friends. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without them in my life, and it is so much better to have them around. Even though we argue sometimes, I have no clue what I would do without them.
