Focus more on being a nice person than being popular. If you're only nice to people because you want them to vote for you, they're going to see right through that fakeness. Just remember to always be friendly and smile a lot. If you are a nice person you'll make friends really easily. Don't worry so much about Homecoming Court. Although it would be nice to be on it, it's nicer to have a few great friends who care about you. Also, never ask people to vote for you. If you want to be on it, you should be on it because people truly like you, not because you pressured them into voting for you. If you are great person that people like, chances are you'll get lots of votes anyway. But like I said, don't stress over it. :-)

Hello. The best way to make friends is to put all your fears behind you... Think of your new year as a chance to do all of the things you wanted to do in your old school that you couldn't. You should make sure that you don't act shy, because that makes people less likely to approach you. Let people know about your interersts and your hopes to make new friends. Practice introducing yourself to people. When you meet someone new, make sure you let them know that you are interested in what they are interested in. And most importantly, make a terrific first impression. Be a polite and fun person. Show people that you want their company. When people see that you are an outgoing and polite person, they will want to be around you. Just make sure you aren't clingy or anything of the sort. Give people a good amount of space. Do not rush into friendships. Go at their pace. Happy schooling!
