Worst Things About the 8th Grade
Luckily, my mom is letting me continue 8th grade and go to high school next year.
Yep, even me since I'm in 8th grade currently.
Especially if you lack the energy and motivation to do the project or study for the test, and all you can physically do is play on your phone while lying down in bed for hours. School is pretty exhausting.
I believe that this is the worst part of 8th grade. Most students don't care about the other things listed on this site. They mostly get poor grades and don't even try in school.
However, there are small groups of scholars that do care and associate themselves with some of these issues. Most 8th graders, especially boys, are so immature and inappropriate. It is not seen as much in girls, but one thing that is definitely noticeable is the level of profanity these students use. It is so bad, and all of this is corrupting the innocent-minded students.
So, this is why number 6 is the worst part of 8th grade. Take it from me. I am an 8th grade boy, but I am not like the others.
The truth.
My best friend and I have been together since preschool, and we love each other like sisters. But now she's got so many other friends, and I'm not a fan of all of them. I can no longer say we're best friends, and we usually ignore each other during recess.
This is happening to me right now in 7th grade. I have only about 3 or 4 people I talk to regularly, and most of my friends rarely talk to me or not at all.
Here is what happens when mostly the same people are forced to be together this much a day, this many days a week, for 9 years:
Best friends: Go down in rank
Normal friends: Mostly talk to other people
Acquaintances: Start getting annoying
Enemies: Become even worse
The Newcomers
Yes. I was in 8th grade last year, and it was a LOT of responsibility. That was when my depression increased.
I still hate having responsibilities now at age 15 and in 10th grade.
Started in 6th grade for me. I am a freshman now. They give you crap for liking ANYTHING they find "childish." This is why I am introverted in school. I also have best friends younger than me, and they are my family friends.
I'm moving on to 8th grade, but my friends say that they still watch cartoons.
This is how it'll be for me, except I was in sixth, going into seventh.
Grade 8 is where all my depression started. I blame my classmates and teachers who ignored me. They were traitors to me back then.
Middle school is so boring and hard.
I try to share my concerns about school, but it feels like no one listens to me.
I'm an 8th grade guy, and I'm finally recovering from being that one super annoying class clown no one likes. Two of my friends just broke up, and the guy is my best friend because he has strong atheist beliefs and is a jackass about it.
Definitely. This was terrible. Emotions are a mess.
If anyone is reading this, don't do it. If you do, you will be bombarded with homework, and filler will cover up tracks of working on it at school.
Since when does the alphabet get involved with math?
I went out with this boy, we broke up, and now I want him back. But he keeps saying he's working on "something new," so now every day I think that he will never want me back and that he doesn't like me anymore.
My body just flat out turned against me! WHAT?!
Especially if they blackmail you for telling on them. I told a teacher that this girl was being extremely annoying, and she told the principal that I said "n," even though I didn't.
Profanity is banned in my school. Also, any words that can make people feel bad or cannot make people feel good are banned. I almost got expelled until I got "witnesses."
This one is extremely true. This is the year where you have the highest chance of either bullying someone or getting bullied by someone. But after this grade, bullying starts to reduce really fast for the rest of your school career. Thank God for that.
I thought this only happened to boys until I got to 8th grade.
