Okay. how can i make newer friends?

Question

at the moment, i want to branch out from my friends. i love them and so forth, but i need other people to hang out with. some girls at school are really nice, but they drink and do a lot of wild things, and i'm not into any of that. some people are nice too, but they seem to be really independent and a tad too school spirited. so i'm sort of lost, concering the friend front.

i'm planning on joining a few more clubs and so forth this year as well, but i'm really shy around people i don't know very well. help? :)

Joining sports teams are a really good way to go! That way you play your sport and also socialize at the same time so its okay if you are a bit shy. Join clubs for things you like doing and the people there will most likely like those things too. That way you can make friends with people that enjoy similar things as you.
