For me, junior high life was fun.
Being in the same class for three years, knowing inside and out of each person, laughing and crying together, and for some times, lash out at each other, almost made our friendship broken, but we quickly repaired that.
Still, I love it. Why, you say?Because all of us were different, and we actually APPRECIATE each other.
Of course, back then, I'm also a manga and anime fan, and everyone knew that. They also knew that I love English and Japanese songs more than Indonesian. The others? Some of them loves to talk about boys, some talks some random things, some play their laptops, some of them play soccer IN THE class, some of them watch movie using the school's computer, etc.
But still, we appreciate each other.
When all of us talked together, we talked everykind of topic. Each of us knew what the topic that he/she didn't like, so we rarely talked about that. For instance, the girls knew that I didn't like having boy talks, so they kept that topic to a minimum. And I knew that they won't like anime, so I rarely talked about that, only talking about that to my best friends and fellow fans.
We sometimes mocked each other, yet we tried not to hurt their feelings. When someone was sad, we'd helped as we could. We made all of us talk, even the most quiet person, our class leader, would talk to us.
In short, yes, we ARE different, very different. But we APPRECIATE it.
That was the time when I hoped that this situation would last in senior high.
However, the reality was rather cruel to me.
As I began my senior high, things changed. VERY changed.
