Im afraid to go to middle school!?

Question:i heard they beat up people up and stuff and since im smart i dont want them to think im a geek and bully me around i also heard they pull really bad pranks on you what can i do!

Answers:
Walk in there very confident and don't let anyone intimidate you! You should never be afraid of school! Use your intelligence against them! Most of the time the "bullying" stories are just that, stories. Good luck sweetie!
no one will beat you up and dont try to hide being smart, it will impress the other people and they will like you more
At my jr.high they never did anything like that. I was pretty nervous to go to! But its so much fun after the first couple weeks after you get your schedule and everything down. Good luck! =]
i love how you are so naive. none of those things happen in a normal middle school but if you do end up having any the first and foremost person you should talk to is the teacher you like best. next your parents if you trust them. if youre smart enough to know how to use a comp then youre smart enough to outsmart any bully that comes your way.
thats all BS from tv. instead of worrying about this crap, go to school with confidence and no one will do anything to you
Lies. Their all lies. Unless you dress really dorky, no one will think your a geek. They can't tell how smart you are by the way you look. And who gives a darn about what othere ppl think, as long as your comfortable with yourself.

6th grade was pretty cool for me. You get to do a whole lot of new stuff like you get lockers and 7-8 different teachers (depending on your school). You don't get recess, which wasn't a big deal to anybody in my school. Here are a couple tips that I could think of:

1. DONT RUN TO YOUR CLASSES! There is no need for you to run at all unless you are extremely late. Running everywhere will just make you seem more like a franticky little 6th grader.

2. Don't act like your all that just because you're in middle school now. You really aren't any of that.

3. Don't smart off to the older kids, or try to say something to make you look smart or funny. You may be smart in your grade, but most of the older kids are smarter than you. And don't remind them of the rules or tell them not to be mean or anything, then they really get annoyed. Mostly, if you stay quiet around the older kids, occasionally talking about how you didn't like this teacher or something, then they will like you and take you under their wing.

4. Don't try to stand up to any of the older kids. There really aren't any bullies that take your lunch money or whatever, but some kids do like to use words to get to you. If someone is bothering you, don't try to act tough and stand up to them, go tell a teacher or write a statement in the dean's office.

5. Have fun and try not to get involved in a lot of drama. Trust me, theres a whole ton of drama in middle school, and if you steer clear of the drama queens, you'll be happy.

6. You're only like 12 years old. YOU DONT NEED TO START DATING YET. You may think you're mature enough, but you're really not. You have plenty of time in high school. Middle school "dating" is really just some kids who say they are going out, but really all they do is walk around, occasionally holding hands, but they never actually go on dates.

Well there you go, that's all the stuff I could think of that annoyed me about 6th graders last year. But that was just that particular 6th grade class, they usually aren't that terribly annoying. 7th graders will be ok with you, cuz they were you last year, but 8th graders seem to get more agitated about 6th graders, so just stay out of their hair. Have fun!
Geek is a compliment, okay? You're UNIQUE. You're YOU. Don't follow the crowd. Be YOU. People mostly just bully by putting you down and stuff or laughing at you (because they're insecure). At my middle school, violence didn't seem THAT prevalent. (; Just chill out, get good grades, and be YOU. ;)
nobody's gonna beat you up. people like to spread rumors to scare you. just relax, make friends, and stick with them. you're going to be fine.
