As you can tell what this post is about by the title: little acts of kindness really go a long way! Just by waving at someone could make that persons day! It feels good doing little acts of kindnesses. Like today...
Today I had to take my last 2 exams until June. When my mom dropped my sister off at school very early, we had some time to spare till I had to get to school. We went to Dunkin Donuts for a cup hot chocolate. When we went threw the drive threw there was a man selling newspapers. It was cold outside so my mom got him a coffee from Dunkin Donut. He was so happy and thanked us literally 5 times. We made his day. He said, and I quote "I knew there were still generous people in this world. Thanks!" My mom felt so great of her little act of kindness. Although I didn't do the actual kindness, I still felt the greatness of the kindness itself.
In school, Jen, TyTy, APG, Dani, and I whenever we see someone sitting alone we invite them over to sit with us for lunch. I know that person might not of said anything to us about us inviting them, but I know we made his or her day or at least that persons lunch time time great! There is also a boy who came from China in September and he could barely speak English. We are one of the only people who talk to him so I know he is very appreciative. We invited him to sit with us and ever since he has sat with us.
Like the time Dani and I called a new girl at our school to welcome her. She sounded so happy and sounded like she felt comfortable going to school with people she never met before.
Doing acts of kindness could really help someones day go better. One of my New Year's resolutions is to do more acts of kindnesses to other people. I also have to learn to not show my true feeling for someone because as Kyle said on TRHBH "The problem is I where my heart on my sleeve." That is what I do. Sorry that this post is short like the last one. I really plan on doing more acts of kindnesses!
Have you've done an act of kindness that made your day and also another persons?
Also, THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL OF THE COMMENTS!!!! I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!

What a Small World?
On the way home from my grandparents house, in the car, I was thinking about how small this world is! As you can probably tell I do a lot of pondering in the car. I could go in a store and ask someone where a can of soup is and that person could possibly be the author of one of the blogs I read.
Whenever I meet someone new, I always have some type of connection (Some time; not always). May not be an actual meeting connection from the past, but it could be a slight connection. Like if we go to the same restaurant every Christmas or something around those lines!
An example is, one of my best friends, Dani, goes to the same restaurant every Thanks Giving as I do. We both have since we were little girls. We only met each other 2 years ago. Maybe or maybe not. Maybe we met in the restaurant. Maybe we didn’t. Who knows? But one thing I always think about is, I probably one time came eye to eye with her when we were little and obviously we never knew we were going to be best friends. It make
Another best friend, Jen, went to the store the A and P (You probably read about it on her blog how it got replaced by Big Y. So tragic...) all the time. I did also. What if we met in the checkout line at the store before...? Maybe or maybe not? I always wonder...
One of my other best friends, APG, was best friends with a girl who I was best friends with when we were the same ages (We were young)... What if we went to our best friends party and we both were there eating our slices of cakes together. It is sososooo crazy how I have connections in some way with all of my best friends!
It is so bonkers how small the world really is. I mean I could of today walk by a fellow blogger and not even know it... For some reason I can gallivant about this topic all day! It is especially deranged when you meet someone and 5 minutes later you find out they are related to you. One time, when I was at my grandparent’s beach house and there was a new neighbor who just moved in and I went to go and meet her. Ending up we were related! When you are young you can't assimilate the people you have met, so it is very hard to commemorate who you have met in the past!
It is such a small world, isn't it?
What about you? Have you ever had incidents like this? Or have you ever met someone without actually meeting them (If that makes any sense)?

Hello World!!
Hello blogging world! I HAVE A BLOG; I CAN"T BELIEVE IT!!!!!This is my first post/ blog ever, so i am super nervous! Creating a blog was introduced to me by my best friend Jen(as you may know from her blog The Girl in The Purple Pants). Jen for about a year now has been begging me start a blog. I always had this urge deep inside of me to start a blog. Today was the day I finally agreed to it. Instead of me babbling on let me tell you what this blog will be about........
My blog is going to be about middle school. Yes, you heard me middle school. Middle school, is full of fun and enjoying the last year before we become a freshman. My middle school life is so crazy. I am a fanatic about grades. If I don't get a 90 and above I get worried and depressed. I know, I know I am crazy (often said by Jen) but I want good grades. Middle school is a crazy life but someone has got to live it.
My school is full of cliques. Yes, it’s a painful, especially because I only have 54 kids in the whole grade. There are only 15 girls out of the 54 students. As you can see most of my grade is made of boys. Which I personally find annoying since most of the girls in the grade are boy crazy. Anyway cliques are separated by the boy crazy clique, the clique that wants to be boy crazy, and the clique that doesn't care about boys. Mine is the clique that doesn't care about boys and we just don't care what other people think or say.
My Best friends are Dani, APG, TyTy, and Jen. They live this unpredictable life with me in middle school so you will be hearing about them a lot. This blog I hope will relate to your school difficulties and will let you know there are other people out there living a crazy middle school life like me!
