High school...
I usually give advice, but now I need advice...I'm gonna be a freshy in about 3 weeks and I want some tips (besides "be yourself") on making friends, my problem is that I'm REALLY shy and I always think I'm going to say something stupid. The h.s isn't that big (1,100 students) and all of my friends are going to this h.s, but if I don't have any of them in one of my classes I want to be able to meet new people..
Any tips would be greatly appricated, btw I rate

Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
well if all ur friends are going then its unlikely u wont have them in some of ur classes! but incase just be reeeeally nice to everyone u meet!! and if ur just nice then theres no chance on sounding stupid! if ur just nice and giving to everyone then someone will want to talk to u! if ur shy then u prolly wont be obnoxious wich is a very bad trait! hope i helped

Hey no worries! Its a new year and everyone is looking to make new friends! There has to be others who dont have any friends in their classes also!
-start a convo with someone..it can be about anything!
-if there is a new student in school..become their first friend! New students are usually friendly and looking for new friends!
-get closer to people you always have "seen around" Last year i made 5 new friends that way! You find out that they are really great people
not to worry..your gona be great

I was the same way. I thought that if none o my friends were in any of my classes my life would b over. well i was wrong. my freshman was the best. u meet people in all different grades. u can fool around n b yourself with people. try new things n c wut they turn out to b!

just remember that there is nothing friendlier than a smiling face! you can talk about movies or somehting. just whevener you get to your class, see who's sitting next to you and strike up a converstaion with them. it's so much easier if you make a lot of friends at the start. good luck!!

Freshy yr I was really scared too. Considerin I was really shy. But chances are your really likely to get at least one of ur friends in ur classes. Also the first day of class teachers play a lil game or something so everyone meets everyone. And in highschool u always have projects to do w/ another student so dont worry about it u'll be fine. Tell me how ur first day of HIGH SCHOOL GOES SWEETIE!?!?!!

Ahh.. Freshman year. I remember that well (I am a senior now.) I went to school in a really small town who had about 400 total students (middle and high school combined.) Well, after 8th grade, I decided I wanted to go to the school that was in my city that had about 3600 students. Major change. I was sooo nervous. I knew only like 3 people total who went to that school when I started going there. But the first day I walked in, I realized in order to make friends, I had to be myself. I don't agree with changing yourself in order to fit in somewhere, so my advice to you is be yourself. Being nervous is perfectly alright. In fact, its VERY normal. Things may seem rough at first, but its all natural. Hang in there and be the real you, and people will start flocking toward you. =)
Good Luck. If you need any more advice, feel free to leave a message in my inbox.

I really know how you feel. When I was a freshman, I was shy, I watched what I said, but I grew out of it. Do you like sports? You can take up a sport. I did volleyball my freshman year, even though it was my first year and I sucked... I still made friends and had fun. Its easier to make friends when your in a sport, club, or something along those lines. For in class, if you see someone who is sitting there just maybe give them a smile and say hi. Most likely that person will start talking to you back. You will be fine, just go in thinking positive and have a great attitude. Good luck in HS and make it the best 4 years ever.
