Easy.. read the book Don't Kill the Freshman by Zoe Trope. Haha, actually that book doesn't really help.. but hey that's a good read though! But anyway..I'm not in highschool yet.. but I know you'll be under a lot stress..

High school is the most FUN year of ur darn entire life!! I miss it, College is bundage with school work. If U dont do good U drop out and lose ur money.. Blah!! Spend ur good time in High School!

whatever that comes will come. you will just have to brace yourself when it does.

It's not a big deal at all just don't walk around like you are better than the upperclassmen and if they push you around sometimes, you just got to let them
Know that no matter what you do not want to have an upperclassman as an enemy

Don't piss off any teachers.
It's your first year in that school, you don't wanna be in their bad graces.
Unfortunately, I've managed to piss off about 3.

be yourself.

-_-;; what am i saying, im gonna be a freshman next year too.

One piece of advice:

Run home on Freshman Friday. Just get home as fast as you can.

High school omg. jeez its my hardest year. im suppose to be a sohpmore(sp) but when i got here they pulled me back a grade. told me my english wasnt good engouh

yupp yup. i`m not gonna be ready for college for a while. haha. i try not to piss of any teachers. last thing i`d probably wanna do. what. run home? what if i ride the bus .. but yeah. high school`s probably gonna be pretty cooL. get to see some of my friends that are already in high school again, so that`s good . hMm. marching band .. thankss guys

One thing you should realize though, and I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but people will change. That might possibly include friends that are close to you now. Make sure as you build your new friends, don't forget about the old ones.

i had the most fun freshmen year of high school. the workload is lightest, but don't slack off or you'll come to regret it. be involved in school.. join clubs and teams. it's a great way to meet people and it'll look good on ur record. but most of all, have fun and relax =]

lucky y0u! i can`t reallii give ya any advice yet. i still g0t 2 m0re yrs. until im a fishyy

hahaha. yeah, i GUESS u can say i`m lucky? but yeahh. those 2 years will fly by so fast. you`ll be onto high school in NO time

- Christine

dont worry about it its gonna be fun. make it the best.

High school, the best years of your life ^^

1. dont piss off your teachers
2. dont try to act hard
3. dont start stuff unless u know u back it up
4. dont try to be all that

just my advice ^-^ and lastly HAVE FUN!!!

a lot of middle skoolers change wen they go to high skool...

this girl i know who was into ballad music and fancy stuff, but she turned into punk rock girl...heh

smart ppls turn into smokers and drunkers

good ppls turn into bad ppls

lols so many changes...

cus u can skip classes, but dont get caught...heh...

a lot of high skoolers skip classes...heh

i thot it was scary at first, but i felt like i have a freedom now^^

Always be polite to the teachers and the seniors. Make your high school career more fun by taking some extra activities! Joining the band and orchestra is always a good idea

Ah, seniors are idiots... I know, bcos I am/was one... lol... unless you have some really idiotic people in ur scool, seniors dont just walk around lookin for freshmen to beat up... we're usually too busy finding a door to leave out of

Just don't perform anything lame that might follow you for the rest of your high school years...

Other than that, just stay cool and have fun.

haha, yeahh. i`m pretty much looking forward to high school cause my friends say they gots more freedom. and yeahh. besides, middle school is beginning to be so old. but i`m moving on . and yeahh, hopefully i will have lots of funn. haha. but thanks for the advice. i`ll be sure to stay out of the seniors ways . wonder if kempner has any hot teachers . . j/k y`all

- Christine

im a freshmen too.....watch out for senior pranks....

I'm going to be one in a few months also =)...I wish you luck. I'm sure it'll be a fun time in our life (hope..hope).

eh, im goin into high school next year too. dont you feel so old?

Well, I pretty much finished ninth grade, and for one thing, be yourself, and don't become one of those people who change drastically. Also, as mentioned before, don't piss the teachers off. Also, don't slack off, but try to have as much fun as you can, even if it means going to bed at three in the morning. Don't be scared of anyone! You'll be fine. I remember how worried I was going into ninth grade - it was not half as bad as I thought it was going to be.

I'm in 7th grade next year! So yeah....1 more year to leave middle school!

i'm freshmen next year too. i'm pretty excited. i got a lotta plans. i'm gonna try to make it my best 4 years that i possibly can.^^

first year is the funest!!! you can have fun and do nothing and still get high 90's ohhhh those were the years... its when u make the most friends tooo and find out which ones are good and lose the ones that ain't lalalalal rmb to stand out if you want to reconized, don't not talk and be shy, try to talk to everyone =) i'm sure ppl are freindly as long as u don't act cocky.

i agree with wat everyone is sayin but most of all dont piss off the teachers and just keep to urself and DONT SLACK OFF!!!!! PLEASE REMEBER THAT!! i did an now its really hard to get my 2 grades up <2 classes i slacked off in> =[ also just try NOT to act like a freshmen just act like u have been there for 3 years and u'll be fine..lol i had my worst year of freshman yr but im glad skool is almost over i cant wait to be a soph.!

haha, don`t feel old yet, just OLDER . yeahh. i don`t think i`d want to change who i am even though now i`m going to high school, i don`t like those kinda people eithers . haha, imma not gonna be scared of no one. imma get my high school buddied to beat them up . yupp. azn_pnoy_boi, that one year will fly by, trust me . yeah, imma hoping to meet a lotta new peoples. make my freshman year the best year. haha, yeahh, i told myself i wouldn`t slack off and actually try to do good in high school. hope i can do it though. haha, don`t act like a freshman . but yeahh. i think school starts on august 12th. so i can`t wait!

- Christine

oh yeah im going to high school too

ppls change wen they go to high skool, so be careful. but u know go to a group that u're more comfortable with. hehe

you tell me! im goin to eigth grade now- THEN high scho0l! plz tell me! xD

u can skip classes...and they dont catch u...well depends on how u escape hahaha.... but i never skip class. me good student haha. and also... high skool is freedom. u can go somewhere during lunch. u can go to a restaurant (ur favorite restaurant) but gotta be in skool on time. hehe also lotta sophomore and junior make fun of freshman... but if ur popular they dont make fun of u...hehe

get involved in some extracurricular activity.
anything. just get really into it.

and model UN rocks.

I'l be a freshmen next year too. Not looking forward to it. I'll bet anything that the people in my grade will become even more immature, as impossible as that seems.

don't think you're overly cool. humility is an underrated virtue, and if you act like you're all that and a bag of chips, the upperclassmen will just laugh at you.

yeah highschool can change even ur best friends into your worst enemies cuz suddenly its all about who knows who and who has a car.. u just gotta find ur "crew" n stick with em. its hard to find real friends... especially in ur teen years.

but yeah.. im a sophmore.. freshman year wasnt near as bad as i thought.. it was my first year at a public school.. n i loved it. the only bad part was when my friends got expelled.. or arrested.. or somethin crazy like that. at the beginning of last year.. this guy i was REALLY crushin on.. n REALLY gettin to know got jumped by a buncha guys n when the teachers tried to break it up, he ACCIDENTLY hit the principal ((who just happens to be a woman)).. so he got arrested n no ones heard from him since =[ ..he was SO hott too

i couldnt give ya any advice. i did die the 1st year.

oh man i just finished 9th grade and it was one of the best school years i've had for awhile. at first i hated it but then it became the best and it was sad leavin for summer break. oh and you should join an extracurricular activity you'd like so u can do it all 4 years, looks good on your college resume
