Bye Bye Middle School...Hello High School
This whole thing is probably going to sound really werid and its going to be long but here goes:
It's my last year in this school I've been at for 3 years, but it feels like forever. It has so many memories, from the good like meeting my best friend to the bad like dealing with her boyfriend's near death experience. (literally) Well, this year has been going by so fast and its been so much fun. You know when it feels like you and your friends rule the school (hopefully you dont act like it)and you can walk around like you don't care. Your friends are crazy and its just perfect. I don't want to leave.
Well, I have a feeling things are going to change in high school. All my friends are so different that there is no way we are all going to see each other all the time like we do now. For example, in school I take all honors and my best friend doesn't take any. After school, I'm busy with track and horseback riding and she has swim practice. Also, I'm afraid of having to make new friends.
So I guess my two questions are how do I stay friends with my current friends and how do I make new friends in my classes?

wow im in the same exact position except im leaving my school that ive been at 9 years (K-8). im completely scared outta my mind with that too. my cousin had to go through that last year, and she still keeps in touch w/ her old friends with monthly activities like lunches and/or movies. she also keeps up on aim and phone calls. shes made new friends, and even some more best friends at her new school so you'll for sure make new friends. some of her friends are in all different classes, and just try to sit wtih them at lunch and talk during the halls in between classes. they hang out every weekend and theyre close as ever. it will all be great! i cant wait to see what next year is like too!
hope we all have fun in highschool!

To stay friends- just continue to hang out as much as you can. Go to the mall on weekend or whatever you used to do. If you have the same lunch, sit together and talk in the hallways. Just try.
To make new friends- it comes surprisingly easy. You just have to be yourself, but don't be shy. If someone talks to you, don't try to end the conversation fast, talk back. Don't be afraid to say hi to people. Smile when you're walking through the hallways. It's in the little things you do that people will say 'Hmm, she seems nice.'
I'm just ending my freshman year right now, so I know exactly what you mean. You'll actually find out who your true friends are, the ones who will stick with you, and try to stay friends with you.

I know exactly how you feel. Last September I entered the 9th grade. It was a new school and I didn't know any one. I know you may feel nervous, scared, excited all at the same time and it's normal to feel that way.
Of course you should make new friends.
You shouldn't worry that much about staying friends with your current friends because if you guys have a strong friendship. you'll get through it. I'm still friends with half of my friends from middle school. I'll admit we don't see each other that often but we have such a strong friendship and we have been through so much together that no one can tear us apart.
Don't worry you will get through it. Enjoy high school and experience new things with new people.
It is never bad to make new friends while staying friends with your old.

Who knows next year can be better then you thnik, as long as you stay in touch with your old friends i don't think there will be a problem with you guys, you can always meet up with themon weekends and see them at school games or something, and as for making new friends, i think it will come easily, you'll have new friends in no time, just be careful not to replace your old friends, hope you have a great year next year, and good luck with you and your firends ^_^,

Aww! Highschool is no big deal at all.
I was so nervous about it at first, but you meet so many new and different people, its wonderful.
I love it.
You may not see your friends you have now a lot in highschool, because in highschool your relationships with people will change.. a lot. People will start finding out who they really are and what they really like doing. The good part of that is you will meet new people, make new friends, its incredible and so exciting.
Making new friends is easy for me, but hard for some, just be friendly to everyone, and talk to people in classes, you;'ll make some new friends esaily!
Well if you really want to stay friends with the friends you have now, just make sure you talk to each other a lot and dont let your relatoinships drift apart, and to make new friends in classes, like i said earlier, the best thing to do is be friendly, and smile, and have a good attitude!
everything will be fun,
enjoy highschool!
