Dear Shayna B.,
I am going into high school this year, and I’m the only one in my class going to this school. All my other friends always talk about how excited they are for high school, and I’m just going to be sad alone eating a soggy sandwich. It really annoys me that all they talk about is being together in high school, but they don’t even care about me. Can you come with me to high school?
From,Lonely Leah Lulu
Dear LLL,
You’ll make new friends. Don’t worry. Unfortunately, I cannot come with you to high school. You’ll fit in. Everybody is nervous.You’re not the only one, and you might have some out of school friends who are going to your high school. Also a little tip: if you want to sit with friends at lunch, maybe don’t bring soggy sandwiches. Also, if your friends don’t care about you, feel good that you’re in eighth grade and not first.
Best of luck,Shayna B.
