DONT WORRY SO MUCH! relax when you get into class and don't know anyone. There are probably other kids there who are in the same situation as you. Getting into highschool is all about meeting new people and making new friends. If you're an outgoing person but shy at first, it may take a few classes for you to get comfortable enough to let yourself shine through but be patient. Take risks! Maybe other people in ur class are waiting for someone else to talk first, and if you do that everyone else might open up and you'll meet all kinds of new people. I really dont think you'll have a problem in this area. Hope I helped!

OK I understand you're outgoing but introduce yourself to a bunch of new people and I'm sure a few will like what you have to offer. Good luck! Hope I helped!

I've been to 7 schools.
What you do is you could hang around your one friend, meet the friends she meets, and/or you cna talk to people in your classes you don't have with your friend that look like they would fit in with your othe friends. I personally don't think it's smart to have best friends in the nerdcategory, the popular category, and then the goth category.. it gets too complicated because nobody likes each other at your parties. But that's just me.

Good luck!

All you have to do is be out going... Say if someone's talking near you, and you hear their conversation. Join in, it wont hurt.. Unless the people are total assholes.. Lol. But, just be out going.. And as for the class clown.. Ahah, I am one of those... Just be funny! I always have something to say about any thing, and I am very sarcastic, and that's what cracks people up... So just be your self, and don't be shy!

I was always the quiet shy girl in school.

I started to get out of it when I got some confidence, or at least more of it.

If you want to know how to be able to talk to people, get some confidence. How do you do that?

Seriously, just pretend that you have some. If you hold your head high, and look people in the eyes, and have it in your head that you look good, and that people are envious of you, then, even if you don't really believe that right now, you soon will believe that.

If you go through life thinking that your great, and aren't doing anything foolish, then you will feel more comfortable being yourself and letting your class clowish side out more.
