OK, take a few breaths there. I think you are putting way to much thought into this trip. Trips are suppose to be fun right? Here is what I suggest. Plan on going alone and then plan on making more friends. Do not go hide yourself away. Smile (remember to smile) and make new acquaintances. Know that you are not alone, there are others there wanting to be accepted too. Enjoy this trip and take in the sites of where ever it is. Take a camera and get lots of pictures. Enjoy and good luck!

I would go on the trip and just act normal. Your totally overthinking this, your probably narotic when it comes to what people think of you. But it is better to be yourself, than keep up with the act. Being alone is not that bad, and maybe this trip you will find someone new to hang with. Honestly if you think your friends are to good for you, are they really your friends. Maybe be true to yourself and find a different clique to hang with and you wont have to worry who is going to hang with you on school trips.

Hola, look for your friend a while, if you an't find her then be nonchalant about it, don't let ppl know your freaked. Walk around by yourself, it will be hard but don't let that dampen your trip. Or if you like to read take a very interesting book with you. If you're allowed to take iPods then take it in your purse, just in case. If push comes to shove hang out with a teacher or chaperon. But only if you don't mind hanging out with an adult you don't know or don't like. Usually they're nice though.

Is it possible to phone her in advance & ask if you can hang out together? In other words, set it up in advance. She may want someone also. Have courage.
Also, look around for someone who does NOT have friends that is going. That person may be the very best companion for the trip & school in general.

grow out of your box and meet new people. Look for your friend, and just go up to some people, ask if they have seen your friend, if they haven't thank them anyways, or strike up a conversation about how you dont know how you'll be able to find her in this crowd, ask if they are having fun, and see if you could hang out with them maybe if you can't meet up with your friend cause you dont know alot of people. Good luck!

Even if your friend isn't there, think of this as a chance to make new friends. This trip will be a chance for you to become more self confident. By all means, go and have a great time.

start talking to more people. Last year i had to come to a huuuuugeeee school from a middle sized school. It was hard as hell but now i know alot of people in the school and have a good number of friends. As long as you can talk to people and aren't too shy then you'll do absolutely fine.
Good Luck :D

You need to stop being a scared little mouse. Get out there and talk to people and make more friends and acquaintances. Smile and say, "Hi." Ask them about their classes. Everyone has difficulty with meeting new people but they don't let it hold them back, You are your own worst problem.

Take control of your life. Kick your own stuff around. Be smart and think straight. It is the only way you will succeed in this life and then you can become the most popular and most likely to succeed with a good head on your shoulders. CAPICHE!!!

dude just ask her "hey are you going on that trip thing? if so can i hang out w. u?" then have a plan on where to meet and if its possible call her like on her cell, if you cant find anyone just let loose and make some friends while you're there... good luck.
