Don't worry, gurrl. I'm starting high school too crying
Do you know anyone else going there? Maybe you can hang out with them. Or you could make new friends! 4laugh Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be fine. Every few first weeks of school always seem to be rough.

Here's some advice for the both of you. High school is NOT like how they portray it on TV. Do not let your favorite TV programs tell you how high school is like in the real world.

Agreed. Stuff on high school is kinda fake.

But dont worry since its a big school you can find someone that has like the same interest and get a friend in no time. I am shy too and end up making friends at school my first time. I was really scared but i got the courage to talk to someone and they introduced me to others. so youll get friends biggrin

I recommend join a club that involves something you enjoy, I really regret not doing this when I went to high school. I missed out on so much stuff because I didn't get involved. Though my friend and I did start schools only anime club haha, its still going today from what I understand.

Joining clubs and school activities will help you make friends, (plus they are super fun!) but also talk to the kids in your classes. All freshmen are in the same boat, they are all nervous and just want to feel like they fit in. Having a solid group of friends really made my high school "experience" so much better! It'll make you look forward to school everyday.

Good luck! :]
