I remember telling my mother how my hometown looked really familiar.
"Of course, it looks familiar, you've been here before," she replied.
Ah well, that makes sense haha. I ended up going to a different elementary school in the same district, since California didn't have middle schools and just combined them with elementary schools. 6th Grade in California sure had some memories I was not very fond of. Everyone kept on telling me that the world doesn't revolve around me. I could have sworn I'd just been talking about Maryland and how great a school it was. Everyone just kept on bullying and judging me….
Middle School kids man…. They will bully folks who are different, shaking my head. I heard this one guy named "Asher" had a crush on me. One classmate was all like, "Asher has a crush on Fen," and I thought I had to force myself to like Asher back. Asher was just your average athletic middle-school boy, oddly popular. He thought I was ugly, of course, so he didn't like me back. I recall daydreaming about doing romantic things with him, though. He wasn't anything special to me aside from being a learning point for 6th-grade me.

I did befriend this girl named Dante. She was my first ever friend in this middle school. She also became my long-term friend, and we've been friends ever since.

Dante was a kind individual. She sent me a happy birthday message with puppy photos via Gmail back then. I doubt anyone else did that for me back then.
I doubt there was that much that I may want to say in here, honestly. I got bullied by a group of friends who I thought were my friends. Turns out that they weren't my friends at all…. I cried thanks to them. Oh well, at least in the present day, I blocked them on social media for acting like arseholes.
Ah, yeah, I also cried at the beginning of 7th grade; no one cared as I thought they would. Staff were concerned for me. I think I was having a panic attack back then. I talked to this girl named Blackfire often; she was an eh friend. I tried to befriend Lamp and Blackfire in 7th grade, but it didn't turn out well.
