I'm going into 8th next year, pretty excited based on what I've been hearing here
And going into middle school isn't too bad. There's lots of drama, yes (I stayed out of that, pretty meaningless to me) but if you look on the bright side, there is plenty of clubs, teams, etc you can join! I would recommend joining one of those, as you'll meet plenty of new friends, which will just make your middle school life more enjoyable.
Middle school is better than elementary school, 'cause you aren't treated like a 5-year-old. I hope that you look on the bright side of things and enjoy middle school!
(BTW, I wish I went to that school. It looks pretty boss.)
