Don’t get scared. take it easy. just be organized and join other activities. ur school must have some service club or something. i’m going to be a junior. we have key club. there’s tiger cage where u just come to football games and cheer on the team and show school spirit. u could also join yearbook or newspaper but u might have to wait a year. i always have trouble making friends and talking to new people. yearbook is a good way to make new friends. i was nervous my freshmen year but everything turned out ok. if u have a few close friends and u stick w/ them u should be ok. sophomore year got better and now junior year is coming and i feel even better. it’ s not much different than middle school u just have more freedom. for me i liked it b/c u didnt’ have someone watching over u at lunch and telling u ur getting too loud. i’m also taking a lot of high classes. u find better friends in higher classes b/c i took regular english my freshmen year and the people in that class were just out of control, so i decided to take english enrichment after that. if u want to make friends just talk to everyone but don’t talk way too much. poeple might think ur annoying if u do. just be confident and don’t be scared. after the first few days you’ll get use to it.

Congratulations! The only thing you should do is stop worrying. You made it through junior high, you’ll do fine. Do you play chess? There are a lot of things you can do that do not require any physical exertion. Just don’t become overwhelmed…also, you’ll definetly find new friends in your honors courses and that will give you and your old friends something to talk about. God Bless you during your surgery and I wish you many happy memories during high school.

im in the same position babe

i just graduated 8th grade and now im starting at a highschool where i dont know anyone…i just transfered to a new school district so im worse off than you

im taking all honors and im getting knee surgery so i cant participate in PE

which means it will be a lot harder for me to make guy friends considering that they all have pe the first semester.

Im sure youll make lots of friends though ^_^ good luck

you can make a new friend on the first day it is possible

GOSH! What’s with the frosh asking soo many questions! ; )

That’s ok. Some sophomores are willing to help. Be in some academic club so you won’t have to move a lot. Don’t be all “Woohoo! 2011 in the house!” and stuff like that. Totally annoying. Talk to people BEFORE lunch. If you don’t, you won’t have anyone to sit with. Or worst. You might sit with some young looking seniors who have an extreme case of senioritis. Talk to other freshmen and maybe some sophomores.
