6 Reasons Middle School Was The Best Time Of Your Life

Middle school was really a lit time for all of us. We would do things in school, when we think back, we know we really must have been on something to do those kinds of things. To me, middle school was the best/worst years of my life other than high school. In middle school, you grow up and become a young man or woman. Even a teenager. But there are a lot of things that made it very fun or even lit.

Six things that made middle school lit:

1. Dipping graham crackers in milk:

This was the best thing to do with your school lunch because it tastes so good. I really did love every minute of putting those graham crackers in that milk. It was the highlight of everyone's lunch and day. My friends and I would get about four or five packs of graham crackers so we can put them in our milk.

2. Middle school dances

Middle school dances were really the most lit thing to go to. Mostly everybody in your school would be there because those were like our parties now. Being in the center of your circle would be the best thing to do at dances. At dances, you would literally feel like it was the best time of your life. Which is really was.

3. Silly bands

Silly bands were a really big trend everywhere. Every middle schooler had a pack of silly bands on their ID, book bag, or even on your arms. They really brought a lot of life to middle school. I still don't know why till this day.

4. Having a razor phone

Razor phones and flip phones were really a big deal in middle school. If you had one of those phones, you felt like you were a popular kid. They really were the hot phones out at the time.

5. Buying Papa John's pizza and chips

At my middle school, this would be the best thing to do when you brought money to your middle school. This was one of my favorite things about middle school. Papa John's in middle school is really like Cookout or any food place that we go to now. Everybody would be in line for those two slices of pepperoni pizza, chips, and a drink. If you didn't have this pizza on Friday especially, you really felt left out of everything.

6. Student Appreciation Day/Field Day

This was one of my favorite things at the end of the year. I would look forward to this specific day every year. We wouldn't have any classes at all; we would have dodgeball tournaments, snow cones, our principal cooked burgers for us. It was the best time to be a middle schooler.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
