Sounds simple, but it isnt for me.
I am very shy when it comes to meeting people.
I am afraid that i am too boring for people and that they dont want to be my friend.
I've decided to try making new friends, since my "friends" really arent that great.
I meet a lot of great people at school, and we say hi to each other in hallways, sometimes say a word or two in class. But thats about it. How can i become their friend instead of just a nice girl who they have a class with?
I want some excitement in life, i want to go to parties...
I never get invited since these people arent really my friends.
So please help me.
Thanks :)

It helps if you try to talk about the situation. For me when I go to auditions I ask people how long they've been acting and how hard/easy it was to get there and other stuff. Now for school you can talk about what irks you (my school used to have a hallway in the shape of a U and you were only allowed to walk one way, even if your class was just a few meters upstream) or school activities are coming up (dances, talent shows).
And everyone has SOMETHING they have fun doing, talk about that! With the right words you might get someone interested and then you could go into more detail into your hobby. Either that or talk about stuff THEY like and maybe you'll find a new interest (I had no idea what manga was before).
When you're looking for friends try to find a group that you can be yourself around and maybe you'll even find a few you can trust your life with.
If it's excitement you're looking for (again) find some people with similar interest... just a bit more wild.

Well you should just be yourself around people and they will come to you ! If that doesn't work then you go to them ! Start off by talking about something interesting going on in the class that you have with them and that may start a good conversation . You could also try to plan with someone to meet before class so you could walk together . Walk with someone to lunch and ask them if you can eat with them and if they refuse then they obviously aren't even close to good friendship material . But ALWAYS remember to stay true to yourself and don't change for anybody unless you really what to change for yourself !

You need to join some type of activity. Find out what your interest are, then find a group to join. If you have clubs at your school join one.. You will find that other people have things in common and then you have something to talk about with them. Volunteer for things at school, like decorating the gym for a dance, or a basketball game. Try voluntering at your local community center. When you are out there involved you will meet people just like you, GOOD LUCK
