[mid-l skool]
Middle school is absolutely nothing like what you see in the movies.
There are no "popular" girls with their perfect hair that roam the halls acting as if they're Aphrodite's god daughters or something. There are no jocks that are as dumb as rocks (don't get me wrong, there are some pretty dumb jocks, but not as dumb as the movies say). There is not time in-between classes for you to get in a fight with your "boyfriend/girlfriend" or smoke pot and whatever the movies are talking about these days.
Here is what the movies didn't tell you:
1) There are deadlines in school that you have to meet or else you (*gasp) don't get credit for it or (*gasp) get a bad score on it.
2) Sometimes teachers don't like you. I don't care if they say, "I love all my students equally." They are lying.
3) Teachers lie.
4) It is absolutely impossible to be a perfect student. Get over it... (get 100% on every assignment, make sure every teacher adores you, do all your homework immediately after school every day, etc.)
5) You're not, repeat not, going to find your true love in middle school.
That wasn't it... but I think that was all I could say without getting into the gory details.
