Hi, again!
I used to be a teacher. It can be hard to see everybody in the room. Seriously, sometimes I missed a kid in the room, just by accident.
Haha- did you have your head down? Or did the girl in front of you have big hair?
I'm pretty old now, but I remember high school and middle school well. It can be pretty awful at times! But, you know what, it does end! Some people say that it's the best time of their lives. Me, I'd never want to go through that again!
Sometimes we have to be our own best friends.
Are there any old people near you? They can be friends, too. Maybe you could offer to help them in some way? Mow the lawn, sweep the porch-- something outside to start.
Don't forget to look to your own family members for friendship.
