And while i know there are already some people who will....i just want to know how to become friends with more people. Like i want to be a more outgoing person but I don't know how to be. does anyone get what i mean? Please give me ne advice you might have!!!

Well you have a really nice brother. But go to home games and stuff and be really loud and cheer a lot. that will make people know you have school spirit.

Doesn't the winning queen and king have to kiss at the crowning? They did at my school so I'd thought I'd mention that since you're brother is a candidate.

The problem with making friends and being more social at this point is that most students will figure out that you really want to be H-queen and think that is all you care about. So when you play your cards, you need to keep that in mind. The people that are losers or are 'nobodies' are the majority of most schools (you wouldn't be popular if half the school was too). You should always aim for their votes because most everyone else KNOWS who they are voting for and you befriending them won't change much.

How to become friends with more people? Well it's hard to hate someone who smiles! So smile, and greet people that are just mere aquaintances (but not total strangers, 'cuz they'll know something is up), talk to people in your classes, talk to people standing in the lunch line around you. Basically talk to those within your reach but don't go around looking for people to befriend. You'll spread your name around by doing just these things, which is good 'cuz those who have no clue who to vote for, tend to vote for the name most familiar to them that they favor.

This is the first time I have heard of a brother going as his sister's date to a dance. Do you have a crazy redneck sister loving, brother loving family going on here? I'm kidding but you will suffer tons of incest jokes and teasing from others for this one let me tell you. Then again being able to partake in the dance might be more important to you.

Every girl wants to be homecoming queen and it just does not always happen for them. Let that event unfold naturally and who votes for you vote for you or not. You are trying to push others you do not even know into voting for yourself. That comes off wrong and they will not do it.

If you want friends that is one thing. If you just want friends to get votes that is wrong and will backfire. Forget about that and being anything other than who you are. You do not have to push to make friends with new people. Be who you are and people are bound to be attracted to this and everything else friend wise or vote wise takes care of its ownself.
