Finding yourself is definitely a journey. Also, it has a great deal with creating yourself instead of just finding yourself. You are a dynamic human being so just because you are one way now does not mean there is not potential for change.
In your search to find/create yourself reflecting on what's going on in your life is a good first step. Think about what you feel good about and what needs improvement. Just think about who you want to be and let yourself become it. Maybe your friend has a quality that you desire for yourself- try to figure out what makes that quality work for him or her and try to adopt that.
Don't worry if you don't find yourself right away, maybe that's just who you are right now. Know that you are unique and irreplaceable and have a gift that no one else quite has. Just love yourself for feeling whatever you're feeling and if you see room for improvement strive towards that.
Who you are also has some to do with who you are surrounded by and what you do: surround yourself with positive people and do what you love. Become who you want to be =)

You never completly know your self because you are alway changing and learning new info and experiencing new things.
My best advice is to be open minded. Explore your own feelings about topics, rather than just thinking things bc your parents tell you what to think. Find out how you feel about controversial subjects. A lot of times you will have conflicting feelings about lots of stuff. Thats fine, just make sure your opinions are based on facts and your own feelings.
Learn about different religions and decide which one if any are for you. Try lots of different foods and see what you like. Just be open minded and explore your feelings about as many things as you can.

Try being genuine and not so dramatic. Finding yourself is a process and quite frankly we never find ourselves. We create who we want to be and who we are most comfortable being. You know your likes/dislikes/ strengths and weaknesses. there is much more to know.
