I'm sure this advice sounds strange, and probably as a middle-schooler this seems like too much work, but in the long-run you will find this simple advice is the best road to success in any field.

For example, Ms.Li of the research firm recently asked her Twitter friends where to shop for clothes for her middle schooler and got answers from people who know her and her child.

And, naturally, her acting like a 1990s-generation middle schooler in this new world is a constant source of comic relief.
