I am going into 9th grade right now I am almost 15 and during all of middle school I was what you would consider "popular." But during the end of 8th grade I kinda got booted from the circle, not to sure why but I got in a fight with a (once) friend and that kinda ended it. After that they all made fun of me alot and now for the past few months they really haven't bothered me but I am wondering if there is anything extra I could do to get back in the clique.

Everything changes in Highschool. MS cliques break up. People who used to be your best friends will become strangers to you in a matter of months. There are going to be A lot more people for you to meet in highschool. I wasted my 9th grade year being a loner because I had no ****ing clue what was going on. I had no friends. Just make some new friends, you will clearly meet cooler and better people then who you used to know in MS.

This is only the beginning, wait until you get to college. In the past 3 years I've been a part of 4 different cliques and crews (almost all of them besides 1 is very well known not only in the city I live in, but across 5 to 10 cities stretching from LA to Orange County), I've had 3 guys that I've considered my "best friend" and now just are my friends, and now I'm in a fraternity meeting chicks more than ever not really having that "go to" friend that you hang out with every day.
Seems like kids from high school feel like they need to be a part of something, their own group. Guess I can't blame them; Mystery's theory is that we haven't grown out of the social programming that our ancestors thousands of years ago have adapted to where we needed to stick together in big numbers to survive.

You're going into 9th grade, so it may seem like a big deal to get back into that group. Honestly, it's not as big of a deal as you think.
You're going into HIGH SCHOOL. The cliques you knew in middle school? Most of them may even cease to exist. why?
In middle school, you were in the "popular" clique. The middle school soceity was separated into them. You have the jocks, preps, scene kids, outcasts, band geeks, populars, and etc. You just have that tight circle of friends within your clique.
In high school, things will change bro. The idea of "cliques" may even cease to exist. Now, I don't know what your high school is like, but chances are you won't even see your old clique-mates as often as you have seen them in middle school. As you enter your classes for the first time, you will see many many unfamiliar faces. These faces will be a crowd of sophomores, juniors, seniors, and other freshman you may not know. So, even if you were still in that popular middle school clique, it may not even mean anything once you're in high school.
So bottom line man. Don't fret. Go into high school confident in yourself and you'll make lots of friends. You'll find your little niche in the massive seas of students. Your old middle school cliques won't matter. There will be a sea of new people and new opportunities for you. Good luck.
