=For you who think that middle school is hard…  =  I thought that at first when I got there. I realize that I have learned almost everything already, but I also learned a lot of new things during the years. Middle school is not that hard if you pay attention to what they are teaching you. Some teachers can be mean, some are very nice, and some are just very good to hang out with as well. But they are just doing their job; they try to get you interested in things for you to be ready for high school and to get you ready for the real world. You think the life you are living right now is life. Well let me tell you now, this is not life. Life starts when you finish college or even high school. It depends on your choices in life. So you think teachers are like crazy or even nosy, but they are just looking after you. They want the best for you. They want you to make goals and succeed to do them and have a great future and have the best of everything. So think hard and always try your best! Don’t slack off just because some of your friends are. Just do what you think is right. If you do something wrong you will receive a punishment unless they give you a second chance and you realize your mistake. So be careful and think before you do something you will regret. // By Gelane Pratts, 2009 graduate of Penn Treaty, member of 841 //
