Sometimes I wish I chatted more over the summer,I feel like everyone forgot who I am🥺I never have time to talk anymore.6th is hard and all my friends have different classes😢

I can relate. don't worry, I understand, and you can take as much time as you need. I just started 6th too, and it's hard

It's OK. Stay strong, and I'm sure you can make new friends with your infectious personality!

I didn't forget you! and yes, middle school is so different from elementary!

I didn’t forget you! And I get it. You’ll get used to it by 7th grade.

For sure! I got used to it by the end of first semester!

Oh, I’m so sorry!! I think everyone thinks that when they first start 6th grade. It’s a change in pace, increased workload, etc. But I’ll just tell you this, you sound like a strong student and I am CONFIDENT that you will make it through! I have to say, when I was starting 6th grade, I was scared and overwhelmed in the beginning but through the months of the school year, I got into the groove of things and formed great study habits and now I’m in 8th grade and thankfully all the good habits I formed in 6th grade have helped me now in a higher grade. You can do it! 💪 I believe in you! 😃

hi! welcome back! I remember u! (yes, I know middle school is hard... and all ur friends having different classes is even sadder)

Hi everyone,It's fall!!! Time to get sPoOKY,BOO!! did i scare you?So what is everyone being this year?(me first...im being the white swan and my friend is being the black swan!)

Hii!! Well this year would be my last year as dressing up and trick-and-treating, (I`m in 8th grade) and would be in high-school next year so... for my last year of dressing up; I would dress up in the SUPER SCARY costume that I could think of...any ideas of scary costumes? And nope you didn`t even scare me lol

* well yeah but this year I kind of dressing up for Halloween bc of my younger sister, and she wants me to go with her...still this year!

I'm sooo excited for Halloween, I haven't decided for sure yet, but I'm either being Anya Forger, or a character I made up, Sage

Hey! Nice to meet you! Sorry, I don't celebrate Halloween but that sounds really cool!

I don’t really know what to dress up as yet… I want to do something with my friends, though.

Haha, scared me right out of my chair! 😂 Uh, I’m not dressing up this year. I’m a little old for it (next year I’m in high school 😐) plus I never really enjoyed it in the first place, Halloween is not really my thing. I love the swan idea! So elegant!! 🦢

Wow. Looks like we are little bit different! I LOVE Halloween and other scary stuff but not the spiders... and this year would be my last year of dressing up and trick-and-treating... I would miss that lol

Oh, darn! Our first difference! Yeah, I mean, Halloweens not bad but I prefer Christmas. I didn't really love trick-or-treating growing up (too scary I guess) but the only incentive was the candy! 😂 But come the holiday season, watch out! I go all out!

lol really?!? And that`s happens! I always go out for a trick-or-treating while growing up...and this year I went to the haunted fort with my friend and my friend and I got REALLY SCARED by those seniors in high-school who are getting paid to scare ppl! 🤣 but hey we are still the same!!

Yikes, you are so much braver than I am! I would not even make it past the front of something supposed to be haunted! 😂 But yeah, still twins forever! 😀

Lol well yeah for sure! I just love really, REALLY SCARY stuff ! 🤣

I only dressing up for Halloween this year this time for my younger sister, she wants me to go with her...yup!

Aww, that's actually really sweet! I'm the youngest in my family and I remember asking my older sister the same thing! 😂

Yeah my younger sister said that Halloween would never be same without me so I ended up agreeing to go with her this year....and really?

nice! I'm being witches with my friends!

Here is one of my favorite quotes!!! "Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts."-Winston S. Churchill.
