Hey guys! My name is Katy, I'm 16, and I'm from Massachusetts. I'm going to be a junior in high school. I'm a pretty friendly person and I have friends of all different groups, locations, ethnicities, etc. I can usually be found listening to music (I play the drums), playing volleyball, watching the Red Sox, being online, making websites, watching the Simpsons or Bug Juice :o), attempting to drive a car (with a parent or guardian in the passenger seat of course ;o) ), IMing my friends, keeping up with my journals, writing, reading, doing homework :oP, at school, dancing in the privacy of my own room, making people laugh, or giving people advice :o). My friends often come to me for advice, and I like to give advice, and so here I am!

ok. well i live here in a town called fresno. fresno is a town of really down to earth, cool people. most people aren't really wealthy, which means theres hardly any stuck up snobby people etc.
well.. now im moving to the town next to fresno, called clovis. and clovis is a really nice town. home to people living in MILLION dollar homes. a lot of wealthy people living in that town. so.. theres definetly gonna be snobby rich b**tches there.. and i dont mix well with those kinds of people. meaning, i dont like them lol.
i dont totally have anything aginst them tho, thats just not the type of people i like to hang with or be around..
so of coarse. im going to the school there called buchanan. so like.. im really worried that im not going to make friends because i dont care for rich snobbs which is mainly what the school is made of.
WHAT DO I DO??? how do i make friends..
love, manda
I kind of went through the same thing. I went from going to a public school in a not-so-wealthy (but not dirt poor) town to a "fancy", overrated private school. I expected everyone at my new school to be rich and snobby, and a few people were. But there were also many down to earth, nice people there too. I can't guarantee that you'll be in the same situation, but look for people who like you for you and not for how much you're worth and you'll have some good friends. The people I decided to befriend never talk about money, and I personally have no idea how much they make and whether they really are one of the richest kids in the school or whether they're just like me. Keep in touch with your current friends though, you said it's the next town over, so even if you go to Buchanan and it IS made up of all snobby kids, you'll have your down-to-earth friends from Fresno to back you up. It's only the next town over so it's not like you'll never see them again. Good luck.
Okay my best friend just told me shes bi..And im a girl to.I dont know what to do, should I still be her friend or should I like not be..Im kinda creeped out cause I dont want her to like hit on me or nething.What should I do? Im only 14 to what should I do
If she's your best friend it shouldn't matter what sexuality she is. Don't look at her any differently for being bi. And just because she's friends with you, it does not mean that she's suddenly going to develop a crush on you just because she likes girls. It's like if you have guy friends, you don't have a crush on every single guy you meet just because you're straight. You have to think about her like you thought about her before she told you she was bi. If she confided this in you, that means she obviously trusts you and values your friendship. Try to be as good a friend as possible and try to go back to normal, just because you know something about her that you didn't know before does not make her any different of a person.
My parents payed for me and my brother to go to a private school. It was really expensive but thank god we got insurance so some of the money will come back to us if we deside not to go. Well my brother and i ended up going to public school where it's free, the thing is that the private school won't let us get the money back unless we go there for 15 school days. I have been arguing with my parents saying that i just started to make friends at the public school, and things are really going my way. Going to the private school for 15 days will make it really hard to go back to the public school. I really dont know what to do cause it's a lot of money we will get back, yet i am really startin to fit in at the public school.
since this is long I will rate high!!!!!!!!!!
My friend is having the same problem. I would break up the 15 days. If you have a day off at public school that the private school doesn't have, you could go then. Or you could go like 3 days every couple of weeks. If you don't want to break it up, you could wait for a month or so, and then do the 15 days, so that you will have secure friendships at your new school. Make sure you tell your new friends at the public school what you're doing, so you don't just disappear for 15 days. Good luck!
