I need help-I might be going to school? I'm homeschooled right now?

Question

Hi. Right now I am homeschooled. My mom is thinking about sending us to a real school. I am completly lost. I don't know how I would act...... Are there certian things u can do or can't do? I have no clue. I have never been to a real school in my life. I don't know how to get friends or "belong." I am a tomboy, and I want to know if people in school shun those people. Just help if u know anything!

Thanx ahead of time! PLEASE ANSWER!

Answer 1

You should be fine. I was a tomboy and I wasn't really classified almost everybody talked to me. But my daughter is a tomboy and she has problems.I think it has to do with your personality as well. i was easy going and she is uptight. Either way just be who you are and forget what anybody has to say. Rmemeber that if you are happy with yourself at the end of the day then that is what counts. You do not have to change yourself for friends, if you do then they are not the type of friends you want to begin with. So good luck!

Answer 2

yeah u need to be yourself and u can tlk to people introduce yourself and stuff try to be soicalable!! oh try to avoid embarising moments...dont show ur nervice

Answer 3

Be yourself. If you have to change to fit in, then what's the point?

But I think academically you'll do fine, and after a few weeks, you'll get your groove with people and stuff. Be quiet for a while, and see how others act and what teachers expect (The sad thing is, that every teacher has different rules too, so for example while one will allow you to go to the bathroom whenever you want, another one won't)

You won't be shunned. I was a tomboy all through school, and had some great friends. There are all types in school just follow your interests and such, and you'll find your type. Don't try to be cool or do anything big to fit in, that usually backfires. Have you seen Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen? Big backfire. I know, kid movie but I loved it, it totally reminded me of high school.

You might also ask your mom to take you up to the school several times over the summer so you can get to know where everything is, esp after you get your schedule. It was so hard for me to find all the classes in less than five minutes. Plus you can meet the teachers and get to know the adults in the office.

Answer 4

Answer 6

Relax, I'm sure you'll do just fine.  It's always difficult to start something new.  And the first day of school everyone is nervous, even those who've been to "real school" for years.  

You will meet friends the same way you do anywhere else.  Some people will just click with you and others won't.  There will definitely be some tomboys there.

There may be some kids who are mean, but I'm sure you've dealt with mean people before.  The most difficult part I found in school was the waiting... and waiting... and well yeah, it was just time consuming.  I learned great daydreaming skills though ;)

Good luck :D

Answer 7

You can try joining a club or a sport if you're worried about meeting people.  That makes it easier to find friends who you know are interested in the same types of things you are.  

I know it takes time, but you will be fine.  There are so many different people at school that you're bound to find someone who clicks with you!  Good luck!

Answer 8

Okay, for one.... completely disregard everything Allie said.  That will get you high and pregnant.  

I was homeschooled until tenth grade and then stopped for two years.  I'm just like you.  Tomboy and all.  No matter where you go, there will be other people like you.  And that's YOU, not some fake kid that you're trying to be like.  Be yourself and friendship with find you.  Don't let anyone try to change who you are... would you rather be cool and feel empty or have just a few great friends that love you for you and be happy?  That's for you to decide.

Answer 9

You'll be okay. Don't worry about it. Just be yourself.

Answer 10

Hey morgan here is a list what you should do

1. be your self

2.don't be shy

3.don't wear makeup

4.you don't need to get new clothes cuse your clothes are nice!

5.fit in with people that are nice to you and you like to hang out with them!

Well that is my list for you

Answer 11

Be yourself.

If you aren't yourself, then you might end up with "friends" that you don't really like.  Eventually they will realize that you weren't being yourself, and they will stop hanging out with you.  Then you won't have any friends.

If you are yourself, then you will attract people who are most like you.  These friends will be better Friends than if people don't know the real you.  It doesn't really matter if you aren't the most popular.  Being popular is overrated anyway because the popular people aren't REALLY your friends (a friend to all is a friend to none).

You won't have a bunch of Friends when you first start out.  Eventually people will get to know you.  Some people will like you and some won't.  But, you can't please everyone, so don't try.

You said you were a tomboy, so go out for some sports.  You'll get to know people there.

Be yourself and have fun, and you'll do fine.

Answer 12

Morgan, there are so many people at  my school that are tomboys. They are practically the most popular people in my class. In class, just respect the teachers and other people, listen to the teachers, umm ask questions. People will be really nice to you when you go to a new school, then they will usually end up being your friends, som it isn't as scary as you think it is, the teachers will probably help you out the first few days. And, your realy smart, I think you will do fine on homework and school work.

hope i helped, pudgefan

*You can wear makeup, there isn't a rule where you can't-maddie!

*don't change yourself for other people, be yourself and makefriends that you share the same interests with

*clothes, don't worry about the name brand stuff, ur a tomboy where what you want to wear

I'm nervous for middle school too, everyone is in my grade class, but you get awesone lunches, pretzels, chicken wraps,  Arbys, The middle school teachers will let you slide the first few days they will let everyone slide, so, your in the same position as a lot of people. So, your not the only one feeling that way

Answer 13

in school every one thought I was weird. but h**l no did i care it was there problem. I was happy to be weird and different because i was my self. and after a while I found some friends and I wasn't popular or snotty but just my self and happy.
