Don't get in our way.
Get away from my locker.
Don't touch the senior boys.
Don't think you're all bad.
No, I'm just kidding, darling. There shouldn't be any worries. The upperclassmen aren't mean. You won't get stomped or stepped on. Just make sure that you can find your classes and do well in school. And if anything, just don't try to piss people off. It spreads quick and leaves bad impressions of you. Good luck in high school! These shall be the best years of your life.

Choose your new friends wisely. Unfortunately you are judged by the company you keep. Unless you already have an upperclassman who is your friend, older sibling, or the sort, it will be difficult to pick and choose your friends. Don't rush into any relationships whether it is dating or otherwise. Just take your time and observe for a while and be nice to everyone. Be serious about, and dedicated to your schoolwork. What you learn and how well you learn it will determine how successful you are in life! High School is the most important building block in the educational process. Develop good study habits and really "learn" how to study! You may be one who can breeze through classes with good grades in high school, but I assure you that will not be true in college....you MUST have study skills there! Spend time each year with your guidance counselors. They can help you to determine and choose the carreer choice and path to follow during high school and after graduation, but you really need to be locked into your choice prior to graduation. They are also an invaluable asset in procuring scholarships for college and will go out of their way to help those they know well!
It sounds like a lot, but it really isn't. It only involves setting yourself a routine and sticking to it. High school involves choices that will "make or break" you in the future. Don't get into drugs if you already aren't and stop if you are! Don't listen to the BS that your boyfriends will say to get you to have sex with them....resist the pressure! If they really love you they will wait, and if they don't....no loss there!
And enjoy these years! They will be looked back upon fondly as some of the best in your life. Take my advice seriously and you will be able to look back without regret!

Do
1) Actually do your homework/schoolwork
Don't
1) Don't have sex or at least unprotected sex.
2) Don't listen or try to get in with the "cool" people. It's all meaningless in the long run.
3) Don't worry about fashion, popularity, or friends. Most of them are meaningless in the long run.
4) Don't experiment with the drugs during your first year. When you are in your junior or senior year, you can get a bit wilder then.
5) Don't do anything besides learn and better yourself for life after high school. Almost anything else that happens besides graduating/dropping out and learning has little to no significance in the future.

severe college would properly be relaxing, relax ! you receives a boyfriend, even as the time comes, do not rush it, he will come. i'd propose no longer talking to those females and making new acquaintances. keep in recommendations, your no longer the in straight forward words new individual!! Im a really shy and fearful individual besides and that i did fantastic, you'll locate your team! As for the uniform, i imagine your purely extremely fearful and also you want to look good the first day, incredibly, yet back, keep in recommendations each individual is donning a similar uniform!!! I used to imagine a similar aspect until eventually in some unspecified time sooner or later I took a image of myself and that i looked completely diverse then what i concept i looked like contained in the mirror. you'd be fantastic ! relax and be you.

I just went through grade 9 this year, so, attempting at not sounding overly cliché, I guess the best advice would be to just be yourself. I know you're probably rolling your eyes at me right now, but seriously. Not only do people have a tendency to hate others who try to be something their not, but it can have a really negative affect on your psyche. And with all the work to soon be thrown at you, the last thing you need is another source of stress.
Also, try and keep yourself organized. It's going to be difficult, because projects and homework kind of swamp you in ways you've never been swamped before, but honestly, if you just actually do the work, it's not that hard.
And finally, take the time to get yourself oriented with your school. Usually, it's a huge place compared to your old school. Find out where all your classes are, before the first day if you can, and plan out a route to take everyday. Try and find ways to avoid the busy areas, because trust me, jamming through a crowd of stressed out teens, trying to get to class on time, is not exactly fun. And when I say get oriented with your school, I also mean find out the kind of clubs and stuff that goes on through the year. I missed out on all kinds of things because I didn't know they were going on until I got my yearbook, so try and learn everything you can in that subject.
Yeah, so pretty much, that's all I can think of right now. I wish it didn't sound so... er... cheesey, but it's all true. Good luck with the coming year!

Congrats. Some words of advice are this:
1.)Make good friends : you would be surprised how much support they can offer in times of sadness (as long it doesnt include hurting people/things)
2.)Dont be a slacker: remember that you are there to learn and dont fall behind in class. Everything you do now affects your chances of college
3.)Have fun: Although you should study, dont forget to have fun and enjoy high school. Some of your best memories will come from there.
Good luck and before you know it, you'll be a senior walking down to get your dipolma!

Don't shoot your mouth off. Get the lay of the land and just observe for awhile.
Don't TRY to be cool, just be yourself.
Try new things, new clubs, etc. It is your chance to broadan your experiences
Play on at least one sport team.

Be yourself, don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and say what you are thinking. Getting good grades will be important, having fun is just as necessary

just don't stare at the upper classmen too much and don't act/walk/talk like you're all that - i remembered how we used to hate "kids" who would act like they're all that - seniors (or any upperclassmen) like respect and the seniority - once you start messing with that, THAT's when the trouble starts
