Answer 1

calm down

think of it like this

ppl really dont know your nervous till you start acting so

ppl probably arent really paying that much attention to you as well

if so they need to get a new hobby

im shy too but be more exited if anything new year new you right?

Answer 2

Well, for one, you need to be yourself. When you do, you should make friends in no time flat. Try and be outgoing.

Answer 3

woah just calm down you know half the people there are just as nervous as you.but just calm down and laugh with your not so close friends. :)

Answer 4

Be strong act like nothings wrong. You may have left it a tad late as building confidence and forwardness can take a while longer! Just be yourself and don't worry... relax!

Answer 5

Practice taking your attention off yourself and put it on other things.  Also, lay down and close your eyes and imagine yourself walking through school with complete confidence. Imagine people saying how confident you are... imagine yourself walking with confidence... talking with confidence... doing everything completely self assured.  Do this as many times as you can today and tonight. Use as much emotion as you can. Repeat in your head, LOUD!, "I am 100% confident at school... 100% confident with other people.... 100% confident with everything I do. My confidence grows stronger and stronger every minute... every hour... every day. People see my confidence. It radiates from me. And I feel good about myself in all situations. And this feeling grows stronger and stronger with every breath I take... with every thought I think. I am strong... I am confident... I am powerful."  GOOD LUCK!!!

Chick...... i know how you feel, but just pull yourself together woman lol.  Okay heres the deal those people you're going to school with will not have any impact on your life when you're thirty neither will anything that happens, so STOP BIENG SCARED lol.  As if you're actually going to be crying in a corner when you're 30 with 2 kids just because you said hi to someone and you weren't sure if they liked your voice tone or not. Choose something really nice to wear tomorrow, and do your hair really nice, and your make up, do your nails, brush your teeth, run, ect.  so you can gain more confidence.  Just smile, and people will be talking to you and once you start talking to them, they'll seem less scary, and more friendly.  TRUST ME, happens to me all the time.  I'm so over the shy thing, just act yourself, act like as if you were doing it at home and as if the people around with you were your siblings.  A class room is like a group of twins lol.  You're all the same age.  Anddd guess what they don't mix you in with any of the older kids in higher grades, the only chance of that happening is as if they flunked.  It's no big deal.  

I remember the first time I walked into my high-school [last year], I was SOOOO scared and nervous! Buttt then when I found out the normal people i've been going to school with for 3 years were there, I was so relieved lol.  The 2nd day was way more less stressfull, even by lunch of the 1st day.  Chill out it's fine.  When you graduate, you're probly not ever going to see those people again because they're going to colleges out of the state and if you are going to college, you'll see new people that have no idea about your reputation.  Since you're shy, you're probably really creative and are a good drawer, not very good at math?, just a guess b/c that describes me even though i'm way more outgoing than i used to be.  

Actually... The first quarter of my freshman year was SO MUCH FUN, when my parents asked me how school was i said "Great!" and actually meant it instead of saying, "eh", "good", "okay" or "i don't know"  lol.  It was WAYYY better than middle school.  You'll love it.  You get way more freedom, as in more choices to choose what to eat @ lunch, longer passing periods, less homework bieng due directly the next day, ect.  There are also ALOT of parties, & you get out early on assemblies, at least that's what we did.  Well i thought it was great, and hope this year is even better.  

Freshman year will be a breeze for you.  It goes by so fast, and every year goes faster and faster b/c you develop more patience.  These are supposed to be one of the most fun and best years of your life, atleast have fun =]

Don't care what somebody thinks of you, because all that matters is how you think of yourself.  If you cannot accept yourself, how can someone else?  

Tips: Holding your hands' wrists or palms reduces your stress / nerves. Breathe in and out

btw if someone looks @ you, duh they like you, would you ever look at someone fugly?

Answer 7

I used to get that way, even in college!

I just forced myself to go and breathe easy.

You will get into the swing of things.

Just take everything one step at a time.

Friends with come naturally. Don't force it if it feels odd to you.

It will go just fine!

Answer 8

Just relax and you'll be fine.. It's normal to be a bit nervous before the first day of school but you have made it through all your other "first days" and you will make it fine through this one too..

good luck :-)
