kid to teenager

Hey every one i no how it feels going from kid to teenager im 12 going onto 13 and im in highschool this year when i went to orientation day it was scary to me because i didn't no much people there and there was all these older kids and i guess i wanted to make a good impretion so i wouldnt be the one getting teased all the time or bullied things like that i tried my hardest to fit in so i tried being a completley different person and that didnt get me far but then i realised i just should be my self and act like me so i did that and i felt alot more comftable with my selfand i started to enjoy myself and it turns out i had a really good day and the thing is that was only on orientation day so i wounder how it is going to be when i actually go to highschool.
