highschool and buses!


Question Posted Thursday August 23 2007, 11:10 pm

I need your opinions. I will be a freshman this monday, and I only know like 2 people in my highschool becuase I moved to a diff side of town. My problem is, I'm scared to like stand at the bus stop becuase the people standing there will all know each other, and I'll just be standing there all awkard, but I'm not sure if my mom should drive me becuause im not sure if thats like "cool", and I'm not sure if it's a bad idea not to ride the bus the 1st day and get used to it. I need your opinions on which would be best. thanks!
P.S. (my mom could only drive me the 1st and 2nd day cuz after that her job starts)

Just introduce yourself to the other people at the bus stop. You don't need to shake their hands or anything..just tell them your name and say that you're new. Maybe they'll help you meet more people on the bus or at your school. Don't be intimidated, they will probably want to impress you, too.

I think you should ride the bus... that way you'll get to know people that live around you. there will be other freshmen that you can talk to. I knew some people on my freshman bus and there was a girl i didn't know [she was new] and she started talking to me so i had made a new friend in the first 10 minutes of the first day. <3

If your mom can only drive you 2 days, what is the point?
Ride the bus.
Yah, you don't know those kids, but you will get to know them a lot quicker than you think.
Remember: Riding the bus isn't like sitting next to someone in class- on the bus you can talk to each other.

I've seen a lot of parents drive,let their kids get out of the car by themselves,I don't see it as embrassing but, you can let your mom drive you for those couple of days because you're probably not ready to go on your own yet,then you could take the bus.If you feel that you are then wait for the bus on the first day of school so you can get the hang of it,you won't be afraid anymore,bring along the friends you know so it will be easier,and you'll feel comfortable,and have people to talk to.

I remember freshman year and many many people rode the bus that year. I'd say, ride the bus with the other kids because it gives you a chance to meet the people living around you and get to know the kids at your high school that are in your neighborhood. It's going to be weird the first few days because you don't know anyone but you'll meet them and start talking to them. Go on the bus the first two days especially because that's usually when people start picking their seats and it's just easier if youre there from the start.

i think you should take the bus. you really shouldn't be standing at the bus stop that long anyways. i really don't think that it will be that ackward. at my bus stop i know everybody but nobody really talks to everyone else. because its early and everybody is still tired.

so just go to the bus stop and don't worry about anything :]
