advice
ok i am going to be a freshman and im not even going to try and hide it. i am very freaked out. my older sister says its no biggie but seriously i am a very sesitive person and i cant really handle getting teased or picked on without turning red or becoming insecure about whatever whoever happened to tease me about. and i am going to get lost (we dont get our scheds until the first day).
so does anyone have any advice about what to do on the first day or what NOT to do on the first day? advice with bullies, teachers, or red facedness will be greatly appreciated and rated.
First, that whole bully thing is really just a stereotype of school. A lot of the upperclassmen tried to help me find where to go and were really supportive because they were freshmen once, too. My high school has two different buildings with about 5 floors on each. I got lost only once and it was the second day of school, but the teachers are really cool about it and understand that everything's new to you. The only advice I can give you on teachers is to come prepared to class everyday, even if you're late. Hope I helped :)
(Rating: 5) thanks- your advice really helped me out. now im not so stressed.
