  1. 1) always smile- smiling shows you're friendly and you're open to people for conversation. smile at people and teachers.

    2) dress to impress- don't change your style for the first day of school or throughout the year. wear something a little nicer for the first day, but that's it.

    3) have good posture- don't walk in a room slouched over. sit up straight in your seat and walk standing upright.

    4) have confidence- if you get the chance to stand up and talk about yourself the first day in a room, do it right. get up and smile and look people in the eyes, even if you don't know them. it will show you're friendly. you could practice this at home before you start school.

    5) smell nice- spray a hint of a nice perfume/cologne on yourself before each class. =)

    6) act comfortable, even if you're not- this one's hard, but you have to do it. don't go up and talk and keep saying "uh" and such.

    7) be kind- if you see someone who is lost or needs help, help them. that's how you make friends.

    8) be active in school- me and my locker partner became close because of fbla. i met so many upperclassmen and such being in a club. sports are also really good because you will find people with comon interest.

    9) go to orientation- if your school has an orientation, then go. mine did and i know it put my mind at ease that i was able to walk around the school and see where classes and places were before school started.


  2. I had the same problem last year, but i realized that the more the people  you talk to, you should be fine. you'll be most likely to make friends and that way if you need help they'll be able to help you. focus a lot on your school work. i didn't join spports cus i suck at them but if you're good you should. aim for straight As it worked for me. Youll be fine

  3. Welcome to high school! First, take a deep breath and relax. Every freshman in the entire country is just as nervous as you are. Since you don't mention specific things you are worried about I'll try to discuss as many common fears as I can think of, hopefully you'll find it helpful. I warn you this could get a bit long, I apologize in advance.

    If you're worried about getting lost you can always visit the school before the first day and take a walk around and find your classes and your locker. Even if you do get lost, you won't be alone, just about everyone does. There are usually teachers in the halls for the first week to help you find your way, feel free to ask one of them or any other student. Your school may also have an orientation program, if it does you'll get something in the mail about it. At orientation you'll get a tour of the school and advice from upperclassmen.

    Do not be afraid of upperclassmen. Upperclassmen will not shove you into a locker, trashcan, toilet, or other undesirable place. In fact, if you get involved, I can guarantee that you will have some upperclassmen friends by the end of the year. We get a bad rap in the movies, but we really aren't mean to the freshmen, we have better things to do than bother you guys :).

    The classes aren't too bad. They vary by teacher, but I am sure you will do fine. The first week is pretty laid back and you'll probably just review. Just do your homework and hand in assignments on time and you'll do fine.

    Never give in to peer pressure and do something you aren't comfortable with to try and fit in, it will backfire anyway. Don't change yourself for anyone else.

    Most importantly get involved! Join a team or a club, or both! Being involved allows you to meet a lot of people that share the same interests as you and make a lot of great friends. Being involved is, in my opinion, the best thing you can do to enjoy your high school years.

    Well I think thats about it. I tried to let you know about a bit of everything, but if I missed something that you are still worried about feel free to send me an e-mail through my profile. High school is what you make of it. Your 4 years go by so much faster than you think, make the most of them. Best of luck!

  4. don't be nervous

    be chill

    1st year goes by

    and ull be saying

    it was nothing to worry

    be involved in high school

  5. everyone is nervous, i was, but in 10th grade, cause that when you go to the high school in my town.

    But yeah

    Just relax, just be your self, and once school has started, join clubs or sports, to get involved and meet new people with your interests.

    GOOD LUCK!!!!----d:^)

  6. Absolutely nothing to worry about. I was a freshman last year, and it was just like Elementary or Junior High for me. I hung with my small group of pals, and no one cared at all. No one ever ridiculed me, teased me, or made fun of me. Although, I am just as big as a lot of the seniors too, so maybe that's why. But just relax, and it will end soon enough.
