Arhgh, how do i get over a bad first day of school?

Question

i just finished my first day of high school and it sucked! i made no friends, only talked to like one or two people i already know. i CAN'T do this tomorrow! but today i just freaked out and didnt talk to anyone. pleasse help, how do i just calm down and talk to people? i want to make some friends! help!

Answer 1

eh? school already started in your area?

where do you live?

and, i didn't make friends on first day either. join clubs, and then u can get to know more people

Answer 2

Just stay calm and try your best. I know that that's what adults say but it's the truth! Just talk to someone you know until you get used to it. Get to your class on time and talk to them in the classroom. Or when the class starts something and you become partners or you are in a group, you'll make friends.

Answer 3

Your new, so don't expect to make friends straight away.

After around a week you will have new friends.

Some people just naturally get friends in a click, but that doesn't mean everyone will.

I'm in my 3rd year of high school in the UK and i still haven't made friends with everyone i started school with.

Answer 4

the first day is always hard and high school is a big adjustment, it will get better soon i promise...the first day or two people are just trying to get used to the new schedule, find there classes, ect... just be calm and cool, making friends takes time..so just relax and try your best to enjoy high school....best wishes! hope tomorrow is better for you

Answer 5

Right now, go eat some comfort food! like rocky road ice cream or something. But tomorrow, try finding someone that likes the same things you do. Like if you like to draw or play sports, look around and see who might like those things and go talk to them. It may take awhile to make friends but in time you will, I promise. But just be careful on who you hang out with. People can always tell things about you just by who your friends are.

Answer 6

relax, its your first day, you have so much more to go. most people are just trying to get used to the building, and where they have to go on the first day. as time goes on, youll become more familiar with the people in your classes, and eventually youll make friends.

Answer 7

Make someone laugh. It always works. People like funny people.  

Answer 8

I feel your problem Same thing happened to me Just talk to people

that sit next to you in class  

Answer 9

Tomorrow will be better Arielle.  Just relax and take it easy.  You'll be fine.  Just be yourself.

Answer 10

Just because your first day was bad that doesn't mean you're destined to have all the rest of your days go the same way.  Join some clubs--that will help you meet new people.  I think you'll just need to slowly build up your confidence.  When you see someone sitting alone, try talking to them.  It's sometimes easier to approach someone alone than when they're in a crowd.

Good luck! :-)

Answer 11

Ohhh its just your first day!! You have nothing to worry about Arielle...I'm sure you'll be making friends in no time...Remember its a new environment and people are still adjusting...It will get better..Just be yourself and dont shy away...You want to be approachable so show people that your confident and that your ready to make friends....Just take a deep breathe, feel the stress lift off...and just KNOW that you'll have a better day tm.
