So you really need to talk with other people b/c you're quiet , I know. But how are you going to meet people if you don't talk to anyone. It's going to be difficult if you're a bit reserved, but it should be challenging b/c that's life. You may find people that you're easily compatible with in a friendship. I don't know and you don't know yet. So try it and go for it. And treat your friends witht the same inferior attitude that they use towards you. Let them know that the sun doesn't rise when they say so . [ Courtney's advice column | Ask Courtney A Question ]

If you are good at math or whatever topic, ask the teacher if there is anyone in the class that might need help. That is one way to make friends. If someone can't get their locker open, offer to help. If someone drops all their books, stop and help pick them up. Join after school activities like student council. Sometimes people grow apart. You ever watch Lizzie McGuire on Disney? She and Kate grew apart. She isn't in with the In-Crowd, she is her own person. Also, getting magazines like cosmo or ym or seventeen can get attention from other girls. Something as simple as wearing arm warmers are "in" and well following the trends can get you noticed. You are 14 so you can babysit now and make your own money. Don't worry so much about fitting in tho, because when you get to high school, people act more grown up and you meet new people from other schools. As for whats in.. the magazines will help. If you go to the grocery store with mom, let her shop as you go look at teen magazines and brush up on whats hot. You can do this at the library as well.
