Middle School -- The Terror, The Trouble, and The Totally Terrific Thrill

7th grade—the one thing standing between me, and… well, 8th grade, I guess. The point is, it’s standing in my way.

From the first day of school, I knew it was trouble. What’s with the whole switching classes thing? Every other year, before this one, you got one teacher, and that teacher taught you whatever subjects you needed to know. But now, you have to change for every subject. I think it’s because the teachers are too lazy to teach you
EVERYTHING
anymore, now that you don’t really pay attention, so the school hires a lot m o r e teachers to teach you a lot less each. Now the students are all holding major grudges against boring teachers. But nobody cares about that.
