It's quite interesting how everyone's middle school experience is similar; let's face it, we all tried to look as cool as possible and it backfired more than half the time!

1. Drank energy drinks to look cool

And made sure you posted that picture of you holding a Monster on Myspace so everyone knew.

2. Prank called your crush with all of your friends

Thank god for home phones and *67.

3.Bragged about watching PG-13 or R rated movies

Even if you only saw a few scenes, you still thought you were hot shit.

4. Hung out at the gas station or grocery store

That's where everyone was on Friday evenings, or at least the ~cool~ kids.

5. Used online chat rooms for entertainment

There was always a great crowd on Omegle and Chatroulette.

6. Made really cool and meaningful screennames

Your screenname on AIM told a lot about who you were, puppyluver4lyfe

7. Wore the colorful jelly bands up your arm

Each color had a ~special~ meaning.

8. Wore etnies

Or at least begged to have a pair of hip skater shoes.

9. Took mirror pictures with your Nikon digital camera

with the flash on.

Middle school was a hard time for all of us!
