Rr, i'm soo nervous about the first day of school!?

Question

i'm starting high school and i'm SO nervous because everyone that goes there already knows eachother because they basically all went to the same middle school. and i feel like the only person that knows no one! i don't know what i'm going to do at lunch or anythingg :( :( its so hard cause everyone already has cliques...

what will i do :( ?

Answer 1

Yeah I finished my freshman year and at first it's hard, I won't lie, and then it gets really easy and super funn! I was the new girl, except I kind of wasn't at the same time, since I had lived there when I was really little so I still remembered some people. I'l just give you some tips:

1. Pick out an outfit you feel really confident in! If you feel good about your appearance, you won't feel like you need to hide as much. That's just from my experience.

2. Just go with the flow, once you get there and go to your class, everyone will probably already be talking. You could start a conversation with someone, but when a group of people are talking, don't just butt in and say "hey, whatcha guys talking about?" cuz they might think you are too clingy after a while. Eventually you will start to make friends and build those friendships. Once football season rolls around go to the games with your friends.

2. At lunch, just sit with a random table. And then the next day someone will probably ask you to sit with them and then basically that's your table for the rest of the year.

Don't get to worked up about it girl! You'll be okay. High School is almost just like middle school... at least it was for me.

Answer 2

You will be fine!  I understand it is a terrifying situation to think about, but you will find a group of friends and everything will be great.  Because you are the "new kid on the block", others will be interested in you.  Hold true to yourself and don't try to hard!  Enjoy it, these are great years!  

Answer 3

Lunch isn't the first class. Chances are you'll meet someone in a prior class. Listen to conversations nearby. If you can relate (or can try to) then add to their conversation in a positive way to gain their interest. This should get them to enjoy sitting with you at lunch as well if they enjoy talking with you.

Answer 4

Breathe. Relax. It's a new school - you can be ANYTHING you want to be. You can be as outgoing as you want.

Don't be afraid to talk to people. Talk to the people who sit next to you in classes (not during class of course :-P). When you meet new people say their names - people love to hear their names. Smile, even when you feel uncomfortable. Look people in the eye. You'll be great!

Answer 5

This is a very common thing.  We all go through this.  Just take it one day at a time.  Smile, be friendly, be YOURSELF, and you'll be fine.  And don't take no stuff off of no one from the start, and you'll earn the respect that I'm sure you want.  Good luck!! And have fun!

Answer 6

It can't be that you're the only one who doesn't know anyone! And even if that's true, that doesn't mean that they all like each other. They are not a herd, and you are not a black sheep. So don't sweat about it! On the first day, you'll meet the person who's sitting next to you, then in time the whole class.  

Answer 7

Aww...I remember feeling the same way my first day of high school. In fact, almost everyone feels this way, even the people in cliques. And ya know what? We all survived. Just go in with your head high and look for someone you know. Or go up to a random table and ask if you can sit with them. If that won't work for you, sit alone! You'll make friends in classes soon enough, but in the meantime don't stress so much over it. You'll be fine.

Answer 8

Some steps that really help you is if you breath in and out SLOWLY and relax. Forget about all the bad things you been thinking that will happen. Think about all the good thing that could HAPPEN to you in high school...you will know new friends, know new places, you could join some clubs, feeling more independent...Remember that YOU make your day HOW you want it to be, no one else... :]

Answer 9

um well da same thing happened 2 me wen i was in HS every1 pretty much already knew ea. other but i had my sis 2 b/c we had just moved there. well ask some1 who loox like some1 u might like as a friend about where ur next class is during lunch, they'll probably understand dat ur new n will most likely start 2 ask u questions like ur name, where ur from, etc. so wen they do this they'll probably ask u 2 sit down & eat lunch w/ dem. plus b4 u even get 2 lunch u'll probably make @ least 1 friend in 1 of ur classes. good luck.

~hope it all worx out~
