I know that transition could be really hard, but there are a lot more waiting in front of you, so don’t be afraid to explore more about you and things around you! I am an international student, the transition is hard for me at the very beginning, but now I am comfortable to be who I am in the new environment. It’s okay to feel confused or afraid, but I’m sure you can find your own way to get used to it!
Eden, thank you so much for writing this. When you said “It was hard to move from Middle School to High School” I totally related to this. Keep up the good writing!
