Ok my freshman year i went to one school. Well halfway through my year we moved out of district. I used my girlfriends address to continue going to that school. Last Thursday was the first day of school, the night before we had some drama and it escalated into me having to switch schools. The school I am switching to has already been in for about a week. I knoe no one and i am so nervous. I am and honor student and am in honor classes, but im still so damn nervous. Any advise. First day tommorrow.

Hey, relax! The new kid is actually a bit of a novelty because unlike other kids you didn't share the most embarassing year. The first year of highschool is the one where you learn a lot about how to get along with others. You have the great opportunity to be the cool new guy! All you have to do is play it cool.
if you are worried about getting around, just show up a little early, and figure out where stuff is.
If you are worried about making friends, just let it happen naturally.
If you are worried about bullies, try to hide it, bullies smell fear (or rather seek it out).
In a couple of weeks you will be the king of the castle. Just relax and enjoy the ride.

Do you have an unusual name? One that the teacher can easily trip over trying to prenounce? If so, there will be a few snickers. Thats cool. Laugh along with the class. Then see if you notice anyone that is in more than one (1) class with you. Relax. Enjoy it, 'cause you can't do the 1st day over again. You'll get through it.

There is no way to relax. Just be kind of quiet for a few days, like three or four, then show them your true colors. Even if you do make an idiot of yourself, they eventually will forgive you for it. School is inevitable and so is being nervous.

My first day of school will be this Wednesday. Shucks! I guess I am in the same situation as yours. No friends, no idea where the classes are situated... Bla bla bla. My advice would be RELAX, wear something decent and try to smile 24/7.

First of all, just relax. It's quite normal to be a little nervous on your first day of a new school. Just be yourself and ride the ride.

that sucks. but you gotta just keep doing good in school, hang out with people that have things in common with you. most likely the 1st group of people you hang out with arent gonna be the people you hang out with for the rest of the year.......dont worry you will eventually meet that "group" that you belong in.
