It has had its memories. But, whenever I'm asked if I had any fond memories from my childhood, I leap to teenager years and high school. Because they were infinitely better. My middle school years was filled with tons of humiliation, tons of setbacks, tons of embarrassing moments and nothing about it I've ever looked back on and was proud about. I was so hateful of my middle school years, I shredded all of my report cards. Not that they'd mean anything, but they reflected upon things about myself then and where everything was at the time. Sure I was a kid who did kid things, but I wasn't considered a normal kid and I didn't get to live a normal kid life.
