All of them were two to one year older, but no one ever noticed or cared .
Most of the hit Middle School , and I hadn’t heard from them for one full year !
Then the last one a year older then me left and now I figured out why the disappeared ,
they all do pot and smoke and cut there selves … -.-
That last one, she’s into it now , and I’m the one up next .
They’re still friends, but not the ones I used to know , they don’t betray me ,
it’s just I hate what they do .
The school’s population is like 1000, the hallways re dirty, sweaty , and about 65/100% smoke or do drugs . Half the school goes to school, a quarter is emo or depressed , and there’s a lot of drama . This school is talked about on the news !! Just a week ago my friend got suspended for slicing a girl’s brother with a pocket knife because he heard that she was gonna gang beat on his sister !
They all think I’m coming to their school next year ,
but I’ve bin secretly planning to go somewhere else possibly …
This other school is WAY better .
They have great sports team , not as many smokers or drug addicts .
To top it off, it’s way more smarter and once you graduate you transfer to the best school in our city !
But … no ones going there .
Maybe 5 of my same age friends in my class are, but all the rest are of to the other school .
The other school has this one great program called Challenge, but I hear it is REALLY horrible this year .
Should I go with my druggies && other friends,
or go to the smart school with some of my friends ?
i had the same issue as you! i was contemplating whether or not to go to a really good regional high school. however, my friends weren’t druggies, so it was even a harder choice. i chose to go to the better high school and it’s pretty good. you meet tons of new people and have a better experience. i think the answer is pretty obvious. have a better future than your druggie friends so when they need help in the future, they can look up to you.
acedemics. trust me, middle school sucks for everyone. once you get to high school it’ll all work out. stick with it.
good luck!
Do whats best for YOU.
If you go with your friends that are doing drugs and are getting suspended then you might turn out like them. you may say that no you wont but then they will pressure you and eventually you’ll give in. Go to the better school. You’ll meet new people and be better off. friends come and go. i know from experience. im sure your parents will agree
Smart School!! Trust me, it pays off.
