ok, well I need some adivce on this...
I pretty much suck at talking with people, anyone really.
I'll say "hey" and they will sey hey" and then it's awkward after that.
Maybe it might get a little past that and i'll ask them "what's up?" or "how was your day" and i'll just get a "good" out of them, then they ask me and i say "it was ok" and thats where the convo usually dies. I have nothing interesting to say about my day b/c I was at school, and these convos usually happen after school.
I guess the advice I need is just talking with people (girls especially)
Help me relax and give me tips on how to make them laugh.
Maybe help me think of things to say when i get asked "so what's up?" and my only responce is "not much" because then i just sound boring, but 9 times out of ten thats how it goes, and it doesn't get further than that :/
plz help?

Your absolutely right I have a lot friends and at times when I see them I just have nothing to say, I mean sometimes their really isn't much to say, Don't force a conversation. We generally say the usual hi, how are you, and etc. If you would like you can continue on with a conversation by asking about future plans, popular t.v shows, music, school/teachers, sports, and etc. Sometimes conversations just flow without you having to do too much work, perhaps the person that you are talking to may make the awkwardness less tense. As far as talking to girls we pretty much will talk about anything. Every person/girl is different so that topics should vary. Try talking about what you like and let the other person continue on in the conversation.

Somethings just come naturally and somethings even our advice can't help you. You need to relax and just try not to be so nervous. You probably are a good person but you just freeze up and tense up with people. Just pretend that you are having a conversation with one of your brothers or sisters or cousins or a family member. When asked how was your day, jsut talk about something that may have happen like: Did you see how Mr. Jones gave us all that work to do or something like that. If you do thru a day and do nothing then you are pretty much wasting the body that God gave you. Hope it works out for you.

One thing that I can assure you is that everyone likes talking about themselves. I don't mean that in a bad way either. People will usually react well if you show genuine interest in them. You can even use that in a manipulative way if the person is self centered enough. Because most people are like that, it is not usual that you can find someone interested in you, so if you show interest, they will start craving for some you time with you. Soon enough, you'll be able to pick the people "worthwhile", i.e. the ones who also show an interest in you and aren't just one sided.

films books art science all these topics are great ice breakers. Learn to spend some quality time on your own learning about these topics and more and perhaps you may find yourself with much more to say in social situations. It is good that you are looking to work through this now because some people never do until drinking comes into the picture and then they find themselves unable to socialize unless they are under the influence. People like that turn out to be audacious anusholes. So............. how about that new Almadovar film volver.....did you dig it?

Not knowing your age , it is hard to advise. Asumming you are in high school . And you would like to talk to female student. What is wrong with " Hi there. Are you having as trouble with ?????? class ? Do you ever watch ?????/televsion program. Ask her any questions and get her to talk about her self.
