hey! i just finished my sophmore year. so it's fresh in my mind. \n\nit's almost like freshman year, but you'll probably (depending on your school's curiculum) have more classes with upperclassmean, which is a great opportunity to make new friends. a great way to make high school in general better, get involved in a club, sport, activity that you like or are interested. if there isn't one you know of that you like, go to a club that one of your friends goes to. having someone there you know will make you more comfortable. don't be afraid to try new things!\n\nhaving something besides schoolwork to focus on while at school (for example i'm on drumline), like a club, will give you a more positive idea about being there. some of the best memories of high school i have so far are of me and my friends hanging out in the empty school during drumline practices. \n\ni hope that helps some! don't worry too much and have fun.

Just be yourself if people like you they like you if they dont then they dont. Stay true to yourself and you'll make it through high school. Good luck and enjoy the time believe me it'll go by faster than you want it to.

I have no idea. I'm gonna be a freshman next school year too. And i don't know..i'm kinda scared 'cause my middle school was a very small school (only about 200 students) but the high school i'm going to has like 1500 students. And it's a freaking big school. Here's an article on Girlslife.com i read before about high school. Like a few high school seniors tell you what to do and what not to do in high school: http://www.girlslife.com/index.php?id=67 Good luck next year!!! Wish me luck.. ;)   =)

Don't take it personally. Unfortunately, everyone gets teased in school in some way, shape or form. I myself don't have good memories of school. Just remember to hold your head up high, do your best in school, go to college and get a great career, so that one day, maybe you'll become a President or CEO of a company and those same kids that made fun of you will be coming to you for a job and you can make them clean toilets. All that teasing will be nothing once you leave high school. Just find yourself a friend or friends that like you for who you are. Again, keep your head up kiddo!

If someone followed me into the bathroom I'd make a joke out of it, like, "Oh hi! Do you have to go too? What a coincidence!" Or ask them to pass you the toilet paper. \nMean, scary people--stay away. \nTwo-faced people--are at EVERY high school. Ask yourself, what makes them that way? It is their own insecurity and trying too hard to fit in with too many people. If you are confident in yourself and kind to everyone, then it doesn't matter what anyone says to you or about you. Maybe you have heard this a hundred times already. . .but it really is true. As you get older, everyone mellows out and guess what, gets nicer. Really. High school kids can be totally cruel and mean. But if you can rise above it you will be two steps ahead of them. \nI was so shy in high school. I was always kicking myself for the things people said to me and the things I WISH I had said to them (come backs). But now I realize that if I had been more sure of myself I would have definitely had more friends, and I wouldn't have been hurt by the silly things people said (and sometimes they didn't really mean any harm). \nHigh school is a fake world. Whoever is important there will probably never be important again. Whatever happens or is said will be totally forgotten after a year or so. \nMaybe you should try to find friends outside of school, like a mentor or youth group. \nAnd if you smile and say good morning to your teachers you'll find not all of them are so bad. I am sorry if you have bitter losers for teachers. Look at them as if you were their same age. Would you still see them in the same way? Or would you have some sympathy for them?\nTry to get the best education you can. If you have to join some class outside your high school, then so be it. \nWhen I remember being in high school I don't recall it being especially fun. The years immediately following--college and after that--were about a MILLION times better. I don't even think I had many friends in high school. I had one, but she drove me crazy. And then maybe 2 other girls that were younger than me. That was it!! But I did have a couple teachers who were totally cool. I will never forget them, and I'll never forget some of the things we studied, books we read, etc. \nI just kept going and things went totally uphill from then on out. Do not quit!

High school is not as hard as you think, it's kinda like middle school only your teachers arent gonna care if you have a crapload of homework from another class.  Also there is alot more people there your not gonna know.  So get some of your friends and make plans to hang out the first day so you aren't alone.

I never really had senioritis, but from  what I can tell, the best thing is to realize that yes, you're about to graduate high school, but you have to be careful.  If you don't stay focused on your work, then you just might find yourself back at the high school next year.  Stay level-headed, and don't give in to the peer pressure that's telling you to slack off, because you only have a few months left.  That idea seemed to help a number of my friends when they and I were seniors, so I hope it'll help you.

First thing you need to do, is prepare for college.  High School should have done that, but you seem in a habit of speaking/writing as if you don't really care about what you are saying.\n\nExample: "i just wanna go to college and meet new ppl"\n\nIf you write this anywhere on a college application, I don't think you'll have to worry about what it will be like making friends, you won't be going.\n\nStart thinking about what it is like to be in college.  You have to want to be there, and your writing does not show that.\n\nAs for making friends, its like anything else.  The people that you will be taking classes with, the people in your dorm, most of them are in the same boat, they just came from high school and have the same fears that you do.\n\nFind people who have the same interests that you have and go from there.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT succumb to peer pressure! drugs, bad influences, you will be offered many things in High School- be careful.\n\nSchoolwork-\n\nStay on schedule, because once you are behind, it is very difficult to get back on it. When it's a choice between homework and friends, make sure school comes first. You always have the summer for your social activities.\n\nBoys- \n\nThey will respect you if you make yourself respectable- you may not have as many dates, but all dating brings is heartbreak, 9 times out of 10. Love can wait. =) If you end up with a serious boyfriend, though, follow your head and not your heart. This is much easier said than done, but you must do your best.\n\nOn a lighter note, you will make good friends, sometimes lifelong. Live for the little moments that will never come again.\n\nOne last thing-\n\nThis is the last chance you will have to experience the thrills and chills of being onstage, as well as the sheer joy of being a child. I know you are very grown-up, all teenagers are well on their way to adulthood, but you're not there yet. Enjoy the last remnants of your childhood while they last. =)

You are just leaving high school where you probably have long time friends.  When you get to college you will probably be missing that closeness, but know that it will develop much faster in college than it did in highschool.  College friends quickly become your family.  They are the ones that you eat meals with, live with, and spend the most time with.  \n\nPeople at college didnt know you in highschool and have no preconceived notions about you.  If you were labeled a dork, emo kid, geek or whatever other label in highschool, people at college will not know that.  It is a fresh start, take advantage of that.  \n\nEveryone is just as uncomfortable and afraid as you are.  \n\nOn your first night in the dorms have a batch of cookies ready and walk around and introduce yourself to everyone.  Its a great way to meet people and make friends. \n\nMake friends outside your major. Dont worry if you dont have a major right now, or if you find out you hate your major and want to change.  I know people who didnt decide on a major till the 3rd year.  \n\nDont be afraid of the older students.  Its okay for 4th years to be friends with 1st years.  College is not like highschool, there are not near as many cliques. \n\nMost importantly, enjoy life there.  Do what makes you happy.  \n\nGood luck to you, and dont worry to much.

I'm just finishing up my freshman year in high school. Don't worry! You're going to be fine. Get to know your teachers and the building. Ask friends who are upperclassmen what it's like. Joining clubs or doing sports are an awesome ways to meet people. And the best way to get noticed is to just be yourself.

As a freshman (Class of 2009), I know what it's like to enter in a new school recently.  At my high school (Bakersfield Christian High School, Bakersfield, CA), I learned three things this year: 1) get to know people because the people you may hang out with might be famous one day [a.k.a. make yourself available], 2) manage your time wisely; don't procrastinate or the homework today will nip you in the butt tomorrow & 3) get active in school activites.  Don't be a loner that's againist the world.  Participate in activities that you love, may it be sports, drama, music, etc.  Just go out there and give it your all, because you only have 4 years to make a name for yourself...

The best advice I can give is: Be yourself!!!!!  Don't worry what others think of you. Boyfriends will come with time. You won't get anymore homework than you can handle. It's a huge step in your life. You will make so many changes in your life and this is just the beginning. Do your best with your schoolwork and prioritize. School is more important than boys and going out with friends.(even though it doesn't seem that way now). You will see that when you get older!  \n\nGood luck with this transition and all others!!

You will have a lot of 'friends' through your school life. It's very normal for friends to come and go in your life. I will tell you that I have been out of high school now for 30 years and I have 2 friends that I still keep in touch with from there.\n\nIn your life, you will have many acquaintences, but your true 'friends' you will be able to count on one hand and have fingers left over.
