Don't remember much curriculum

At the end of class last week, I had a brief conversation with Amy about Middle School. It was in regards to the changes people go through during that time. The reason I was thinking about it was because of the personal narrative project she had assigned that week. It made me realize something about my childhood education. I can remember the curriculum from grade school and high school, but not really too much from middle school. Meaning, I can tell you pretty much what I learned in specific classes in high school and grade school, but I don't recall what exactly was taught in my middle school classes. Of course, I remember going to classes and that I did learn things, but it seems relatively less important than the self-learning (if that is a concept) that occurred. What I DO remember from junior high is things relating to my personal life, my friends and emotional changes. I think it speaks volumes to what people go through in middle school. It is more of a time of creating a self-awareness than academic learning. Am I crazy or does anyone else have this sort of recollection?
