Answer 1

just change your hair, maybe add a few streaks.

or add some key factors to clothing, like jackets and shoes and such, things that won't interfere with your school uniform.

if i were you i'd add a tie, unless they already had them assigned.

don't worry about the whole feelings thing. i feel the exact same way. i look the same as how i did when i was 5 years old.

my face has stayed roughly the same. so has my hair and all my bodily features.

even my friend(who knew me in 2nd grade) says that the only things that've changed about me, is that i've grown taller xD

uniforms are tough to work with, but it doesn't mean you can't go out and buy clothes. just wear it on non-school days, it will give you a whole other side to recognize

hope this helps

best wished =]

Well, it's not really a probem.  

Nah, never felt this way. I always took the summer as a chance to re-invent myself, and I go and buy a crapload of new clothes and stuff, but you know what? In the end, I just end up going back to what I wore before.  I don't change as much over the summer as I do over the course of the school year.

Go buy some new stuff. If you see a shirt you like, but isn't really what you would normally wear, get it anyway (assuming it's not like some $100 designer glitz/glam thing) and hey, that's a start.  

Don't change because you feel the need to. Change because you want to.  You probably don't change too much over the summer b/c you changed a lot during the year, but it was a longer stretch of time so you don't really see it.  If you mean change in terms of facial appearance, well, by now, most people have stopped changing so much that way - I have - so you're fine.  A haircut can make you look really different, though, but dunno if you want to try that or Ireland might sink. ;P

Edit: Okay, do what I said about the shirt, and build up from there.  Expand your horizons.  Discover some new music, get a new haircut, get some new clothes.  You don't have to take on a completely new persona or anything.  Go discover new stuff and have fun.  Good luck.

Answer 5

At this age, people change less and less.

You're nearly an adult, so people won't have the dramatic little kid to adult changes that they did when you were in Junior High.

I'm the same age as you, and most of my friends look about the same as last year.

Don't sweat it, dude.

Answer 6

Well, you probably don't think you've changed. But other people do. Of course you don't think you changed because you see yourself in the mirror everyday! Just compare your Freshman year picture with your face...You'll probably see a few changes.

Answer 7

Try looking for a new clothing style and get your hair cut differently. You can also try dying your hair or get hi or low lights put in.

Answer 8

dude, i NEVER changed through out high school. not once. every summer i would go back and people would be taller, thinner, fatter, their looks would have changed etc and i would still be the short chubby girl. after i left high school at 18, i had a growth spurt (only 2 inches but hey its something), lost a bit of wieght and my face changed. i moved away from where i grew up and i went back over the summer hols to see everyone and everytime i bumped into someone i had to tell them who i was. they all said, god you've changed....

just coz you don't seem to be changing now, it doesn't mean that you wont.
