Answer 1

-For the first day... all you might need is a paper/pencil and some paper.

-Any bag you'd like!... I use a napsac

-Look out for upperclassmen and sophmores. Most of them are really cool. You won't really need to worry.

-And just introduce yourself like you always have lol ;) i hate introducing too! ><  

Answer 2

You'll need pens, pencils, paper, notebooks, etc. Normal school junk.

As for bags, that's up to you. I personally use a messenger bag, but that's just because I like the bag and it has alot of room.

There's nothing you should really look out for. Just remember where your classes are and you should be fine.

I feel your pain on the public speaking c**p. I refused to do it on my first day, but if you don't want to look like the social outcast like I was, I'd say just be yourself. There's nothing worse than someone who's ashamed of who they are.

Good luck on your first day.

Answer 3

- you should bring some basic supplies ( pens, 2-3notebooks,paper,binder ETC)

-backpacks are most appropriate, but this one is totally up to you and your style!

-no

- just be your self! if you try to act like something your not, people are going to know instantly! so the best thing to be is your self! they say that high school is where you will meet your "friends fir life"!

relax and i know that you will definitely find another freshman or school mate to talk to.. you dont have to worry your self off too much, everybody going to be in the same shoes as you!

Answer 4

Supplies? Just the standard pen-and-pencil. Teachers will tell you what you need for classes the first day.

It really all depends on what your style is. You really don't HAVE to carry one at all. Be warned though- Some schools don't allow bags in the classroom.

No, not really.

I have that, too! I'll tell you the same thing my English teacher told me- Rehearse in a mirror. This helps for speeches of all sorts, and can even help control expressions [so no one can tell how nervous you may be], as well.
