My 8th grade graduation is going to be really sad because ive known my friends for years and now im going to be going to a whoel different high school, leaving everyone behind. I really do not want to cry at graduation for various reasons. Does anyone have any advice of how basically not to cry?! Anything to tell myself during grad? Thanks
But if you cry, that will show you how much you love your friends, and your friends will probably cry too.
And remember this - when you move, you find out who your real friends are. Your real friends are the ones that keep in contact with you, the fake ones are the ones that dont talk to you anymore, call you, or contact you over mail, aim, or email.
You can also all arrange a visit =)!
Why is it bad to cry? i mean, i have 8th grade graduation tomorrow too, so many of my friends are moving to different schools. Like one of my best friends are moving to Dubai.. thats kinda far.. and i know i wont see her again or just for a while.

I'm sure your friends will be crying too, and it is not embarassing to cry-- it is a natural and human thing that shows compassion. It might feel worse if you tried to bottle up tears and emotion within yourself. However, if you are sure that you don't want to cry, you can try crying earlier that day to empty your tear ducts. You could also not drink excessive amounts of liquid and not eat too much salt, as those two things manufacture tears. If you feel the urge to cry, you can think of something really funny or happy to avert your emotions. [ duzzie19's advice column | Ask duzzie19 A Question ]
