My Life In Middle School-Personal Narrative
This year has been a whirlwind of good and bad times. Between being gone for half the year, making amazing friends and having the best classes, this year was pretty great. Going into highschool is terrifying, I'm going to miss my teachers, classes, and friends I've made here in middle school. This year has changed me so much that I can't even think what will happen next.
You have to fight even if you're not doing it for yourself “You gotta swim/ Through nights that won't end/ Swim for your families/ Your lovers your sisters/ And brothers and friends”(Jack’s Mannequin). While going through the migraines, all I wanted to do was give up and go back to bed but I had to “Just keep swimming”(Dory).

I have changed into a completely different person over the course of a mere 9 months, still sarcastic as ever and a procrastinator by trade but now I am more chill about things I can't control. I understand I won't get 100% every time, I get that I have restrictions, I understand how to live even when faced with challenges.
“Swim” by Jack’s Mannequin is my theme song because it talks about the struggles but also that you have to keep going. It's ok if you're not 100% all the time “You gotta swim/ Swim in the dark/ There's no shame in drifting”(Jack’s Mannequin), just keep pushing. Throughout this past year what I had to do was stay afloat, I didn't make much progress for a while but I'm still here and able to make progress because I rested.
My attention was shifted off of school for most of the year and that was quite difficult, it has helped me to balance my life now. I used to push myself to my breaking point at least three times a month, I am now able to understand why taking breaks is so important. I have no choice but to take care of myself if I never want to have a migraine
