Living in Indiana, I have loved watching The Middle. Its storylines are so relatable, and its characters are, too! Here are signs that you are just like go-getter, joyful middle daughter Sue Heck.
1. You are always seeing the world through rose-colored glasses.
If you are a real-life Sue Heck, you are extremely positive! No situation exists that you can't turn around and make the most of! It's a truly admirable quality!
2. You "just love America so much!"
This is a direct Sue quote... you are loyal to your country no doubt, Miss Seargant-At-Arms!
3. You try. And try. And keep trying.
You have perseverance like no other! When one thing goes wrong (like show choir, volleyball, baton twirling, tennis, swimming, I could go on and on here! :) ), you get right back up and try something new! Go Sue! Go You!
4. You have great friends.
You may not be the popular girl with millions of friends, but you have a loyal, close-knit group that means the world to you. Whether its going to a Justin Bieber concert, performing with your acapella group, going to your first "boy-girl" party together, or sitting in the parking lot of a Taylor Swift concert, you have so much fun with them!
5. It doesn't take much to get you excited.
You find joy in even the smallest things! With all that energy inside you, it just has to come out sometimes! And it's perfectly okay!
6. You're commonly forgotten about.
Overlooked in classes, mistaken for a foreign exchange student, called a different name, you've been through it all! How in the world can anyone forget you with all that positive energy and beautiful smile, though?! But you just take it in your stride because you're Sue, and to you, it's no big deal. It's their loss, though!
7. You can't lie.
Lying is not within your capacity. You try - even when it's for good reasons - but you just can't do it! "And so on, and so forth, and what have you..."
8. With a family like yours, you're prepared for anything.
You have been through a lot with that interesting family of yours! You've probably learned plenty in the art of thrifty shopping through trips to the Frugal Hoosier. You've learned how to change a tire (even through all the tears!), how to defend yourself from awful older-brother smells, and how not to take care of a dog from your inattentive younger brother. You're all set!
9. You care about peoples' feelings and can't tell them no.
Several guys ask you to prom, but you don't have the heart to tell any of them no! The love of your life asks you to marry him, and even though you aren't ready, you just can't tell him no either! You want everyone to win and breaking hurtful news is really hard for you to do! But you eventually realize that you have to look out for yourself and what you want, too! And luckily, everything works out alright in the end.
10. You aren't afraid to be yourself.
You display the dance moves, the crazy sweaters, and the inspirational cat posters proudly! You're Sue Heck and it doesn't matter what other people think! You keep being you, Sue! Keep dreaming big and spreading that smile around! (I don't care what your science teacher said-smiles are contagious!) I think the world needs more Sue's!
