middle school

A shitty hell that turns you from an innocent, fragile 11-12-year old to a hardened, traumatized 14 year old. This place is full of racists and don't give a fuck about Asians, teachers don't do shit about bullying, 7th grade being the worst year in this school, and stupid relationships that last about 2 weeks at best. Physical strength and looks are crucial to have a better experience. Being Asian (like me) makes middle school harder, because 97% of people in public middle schools say "ching chong", "rice harvester", or "bat eater" at least once in the span of a day. Your parents lose their shit over you getting a 79% on your History exam, and claim that teens haven't changed since their generation, but they have. Popular kids can speak anytime they want, but normal kids can't speak without some degenerate saying "Who asked?". If you do anything normal, you will be known as an NPC, but if you do something different, they'll say: "You're not the protagonist". Like, make up your fucking mind. Overall, this place is hell, but a friend or two is enough to keep you from being mentally unstable. If you have no friends, you're pretty much hopeless.

Lunch Lady: Okay, whaddya want?
Me: A beef taco.
Some kid: Nobody orders that.
Me: I like it.
Some kid: YOU'RE NOT THE PROTAGONIST!
Me: Goddamn, chill. I'll get the burger.
Some kid: Everybody orders that. You're an NPC.
Me: MAKE UP YOUR FUCKING MIND!
