It's so sad to leave your old friends, but it's also really exciting to start fresh in a new place, a new house, new school! But anyways... the best way to start making friends is to get involved in some sports, clubs or activities right away. That way you'll meet people who share your same interests and it will be easier to find people you really have things in common with. Like the person below me said, everyone wants to meet the "new kid", and if you're friendly and outgoing, you won't have any problem! [ Jeanne's advice column | Ask Jeanne A Question ]

Just show them who you are and be as outgoing as possible, just dont come across being like a stuck up brat or something like that if you know what i mean. When you get enrolled in the school ask if you can have a tour of the building so that you arent lost on your first day with all the other people there and also so that you have some what of a clue where to go. I think that you will be fine and I am sure you will fit in just fine, be your self that is what people will be drawn too! just talk to people that sit around you in your classes, and that should help you alot too, the only thing that might be a little hard is at lunch. You might go and sit with someone that you talked to quite a bit in one of your previous classes, most likely they will let you sit with them, if they dont well then you dont need them lol.
