Be yourself.

In junior high, all you want to do is fit in. Don't change who you are just to get friends. You'll end up regretting it.

1. Don't leave old friends behind. Those people were there for you from the very start. They liked your inside, not your outside.

2. You might not like it. It must seem great how those other kids have all this popularity and seem to have so much fun. Most of them will have different ideals than you, they might be a bad influence and lead you to the wrong path.

3. You won't talk to them after highschool. After doing all that work to please people, to buy special clothes, and sacrificing so much, you probably won't even talk to them after highschool. It's true, ask anybody on the street and they will tell you that they almost never talk to their highschool classmates. Don't waste your time, just stick with people you are comfortable with.

4. Bad influences. You want to have a successful career after college right? You can't do that with addictions to drugs and alchohol. Don't change, don't cave in to peer pressure to fit in. You'll regret it later.

5. They won't be your true friends. When you get teased on, they won't come by your side to help you. They will probably be teasing you too. If you fall, they will probably not even care. Stick with you old friends and they'll come to help you no matter what.

Just be yourself.

Sincerely,
The Editor
