8th grade was a fantastic year for me.

My Middle School had a 8th grade trip planned a week long trip to the East Coast every year and some of my best memories from my adolescent years came from that trip. I got stuck in an elevator twice! Super fun.

The only advice I have is to just enjoy it all as much as you can. Everything gets more complicated in High School.

For the Office Aide period, try your best to get chummy with the people in the office. Most of the time, sffice aides get little perks here and there just from being friends with the people who work in the office.
