You remember fourth grade? That's the year when life got real serious, right? Suddenly, you had responsibilities. Like, remembering to feed your Tamagotchi and not losing your Pokémon cards. It was like being a tiny CEO of a very chaotic corporation. And don't even get me started on the stress of choosing the perfect gel pen color for your notes. It's a life-altering decision. Blue ink? Black ink? Green ink? It's like you're signing a multi-million dollar contract every time you write a math problem. I swear, my Gel Pen game was stronger than my math game.
Remember those timed math quizzes? I always thought the teacher was secretly training us for some kind of mental math Olympics. "Quick, what's 7 times 8?" I felt like I was on a game show. If I got it wrong, I half-expected a giant red 'X' to appear, and the teacher saying, "Sorry, Timmy, you won't be moving on to recess today."
So, here's to fourth grade, where the only thing harder than long division was trying to figure out if your crush liked you back. It was like a tiny soap opera, but instead of love triangles, it was more like love parallelograms. Oh, the geometry of prepubescent romance.

Remember Show and Tell in fourth grade? It was a weekly emotional rollercoaster. One week, you're the hero because you brought in your pet hermit crab, and everyone's fascinated. The next week, someone brings in a puppy, and suddenly, your hermit crab is yesterday's news. And there was always that one kid who took Show and Tell to a whole new level. Like, they'd bring in something from a family vacation to Europe – "Oh, this? It's just a pebble from the Eiffel Tower. No big deal." Meanwhile, the rest of us were lucky if we could find something mildly interesting in our backyard.
But the worst was when you forgot it was your turn for Show and Tell, and you had to improvise. Suddenly, you're holding up a sock puppet you made in a panic, trying to convince your classmates that it's the coolest thing ever. Spoiler alert: It's not.

Let's talk about backpacks in fourth grade. You had to choose wisely because it was basically your survival kit for the school day. It was like Mary Poppins' bag, but instead of pulling out a floor lamp, you'd find a half-eaten sandwich and a mysterious note from your mom that said, "Don't forget to wear your jacket, it's chilly!" And those backpacks with wheels? I don't know whose brilliant idea that was, but they were like the Ferraris of the elementary school hallway. You'd hear them coming a mile away – the unmistakable sound of plastic wheels on linoleum. You had to jump out of the way unless you wanted to be part of a low-speed backpack collision.
But let's not forget the ultimate status symbol: the rolling backpack with a built-in lunchbox compartment. That kid was the king of the playground. It was like having a personal assistant following you around, carrying your snacks and homework. Meanwhile, the rest of us were lugging around backpacks that were bigger than our little fourth-grade bodies.

Fourth grade was the battleground for the great pencil wars. You had your standard yellow No. 2 pencils, and then you had the rebels with mechanical pencils. It was like the Cold War, but with erasers instead of nuclear weapons. And let's talk about mechanical pencils for a moment. If you had one with colored lead, you were basically a wizard. You'd see a kid with a blue mechanical pencil, and you'd be like, "Whoa, is that the limited edition? How did you get your hands on that?" It was like currency in the fourth-grade economy.
But the real heroes were the kids who had those giant pencil cases with every color of the rainbow. They were like walking art supply stores. Meanwhile, I was over here with my one lonely pencil, chewing on the eraser like it was my last meal.
So, here's to the fourth-grade pencil warriors, where the only thing sharper than your pencil was your wit during a heated game of four-square at recess.
