reputation
14/f
I go to boarding school. At school, I'm known as the quiet girl that nobody talks to. I have friends, but not as many as I've had in the past. I really don't like this school, and don't plan on coming back next year. Since I only have a few months left, I wanted to change my reputation and "go out with a bang". What are some ways to do that, and how can I change my rep in a short amount of time so I can enjoy my last months here as much as I can? Thanks in advance.

well, have you ever wanted to do something but never done it because you were afraid what people would say? do it now! like, if you wanted to see how a new hair color would be, try it out and go crazyy! change your style, experiment with different clothes, just have fun! to make more friends, a little conversation goes a long way. like, you can ask someone "how did you think that math test was?" and eventually that grows into a new conversation. the main thing is that you need to realize that these are months that you can do things (not bad things, of course) that you had always wanted to do but have never been able to! good luckk!

i think you really shouldnt try to be anyone else, just be yourself and if your a wild person in the inside try to show that a lil bit.. like make friends with the popular people or even date one of the popular guys? idk thats what ill do!

i dont know how many times i've asked this question,but after awhile i finally got the answer. (i just realized.)
When i was quiet,i kept EVERYTHING to myself.i would think of something to say but not say it. i found people saying the same exact thing i did,and other laughing. then i thought,"i should have said it"
The first thing i kinda did was change my attitude to "i can do anything i want" yes,its ok to want. its ok to say it out loud too. I got a camera,and its a good wayto meet new people in your class. i was always semi-friends with people. but when i have my camera it just adds to the fun,you get more attension,and also if you want a picture of a semi-friend,bring them in it. but really,there is no short change. i've learned this. and im still changeing i think. anyways, Next i got a haircut and wore what i WANTED to wear. i thought "oh,only preps can wear hollister,only skaters can shop at pacsun" what the heck was i thinking? Wear anything you'd like. Add your uniqueness. And more people will complement you if you feel good in what you wear. Its hardest to change your Personality. At first, jump into conversations,its as simple as just laughing at what people say,your instanlty in it. Ask questions about the topic. One thing leads to another,and more questions. Dont sound to demanding though=p. One time,i poked my friend and then we had a pokeing fight,then it just stuck. simple things lead to more complex. Do something you would NEVER do. State your opinion. Try something new. People enjoy smiles. If you think of something random and your around your friends,just say it. :]. its going to take a long time. im still changeing i think,and im still not that outgoing,but i've made an improvment. its taken me 5 months. and now that i think or it,i ask,where did it all go? and then i remember my old self. your a new person now,say no to some things if you want. list things you like. get into interesting and different things.
i hope i helped!

Hey!
Just be more social! Join clubs, sports...talk to anyone, just try to join "friend groups" that you normally wouldn't.
Hope everything works out fine! :)

hey, well your the only thing that is stopping you from changing believe it or not. you need to get more social. join clubs. hangout with people. maybe your friends friend. hang out with both guys and girls, but try to balance them out pretty even. if you hangout with more girls people might get the impression of "oh, shes a lesbian". if you hangout with more guys people might get the impression "oh, shes a hoe". also with that the guys girlfriends will get pretty upset. then people will tell there other friends "oh, marys pretty cool". then people will want to start getting to know you.

lets see: hanging out with the guys will get you a good reputation with them but then it will turn all their girlfriends against you. trust me nothing to get yourself into. its pretty nasty stuff. since its your lastmonth and you probally wont ever see these people again, do somehting out of the ordinary like say, ask a guy that you think pretty hot out on a date. hey rejection happens to everyone. if he says yes then dayyumm one point for you. flirt with boys, it will make them talk about you and then youll spread throughout the school. hang out with a total different clan of girls...but whatever you do dont exclude your friends. hit every party you can..and i know its hard since its a boarding school.
good luck!!
