don't be the scared kid, that's who everyone always picks on. just be yourself, there'll be other freshies for you to befriend
 do you know anyone who's going to that school too? |

i actually looked forward to it (well, as much as i can look forward to going to school) because i was sick as hell of middle school. but the older kids weren't scary at all, and after the first 2 days the school wasnt as big and confusing as i thought. its actually really well organized compared to most
i actually missed my first day of high school because i was really sick. incidentally, that was the only day i missed all year |

Simple: Do you work. Study. Don't halfass things and cut corners. Don't get caught up in a clique. Don't let a relationship cloud your judgement. Don't do drugs. Don't drink. Do talk to your teachers. Do get involved. Do bust your ass for 4 years. Trust me. |

 none of it seems real Group: Member Posts: 2,469 Joined: Dec 2004 Member No: 73,889 |
Our school is actually having what they call a "freshmen academy" where the freshmen will have a part of the school just for them with their own cafeteria and what not.
They are basically being separated from the upperclassmen. Which I find to be ridiculous because they still have to leave that part of the building to attend their elective classes where they will most likely have to deal with upperclassmen anyhow. My brother is going to be a freshmen so in a way it's at his advantage because they will have a little cult of freshies where they can all be together and learn the basics. Just tell everyone that you are a sophomore.. everything will be fine

my school actually has freshman acadamy too, but they only started it last year, so i wasnt involved, and i wouldnt have been anyway since its not for everyone- mainly those in cp and some honors classes, and since im in gifted and honors (and now ap and ib) i wouldnt have been included
i dont know much about it, but a lot of their classes are located closer together than everyone else's, and next year theres going to be a freshman acadamy pod where most of the classes are. they also take a lot of field trips- ie, the zoo, renaissance festival, six flags, etc it sounds like fun, but it only helps people who arent taking challenging classes yeah, i thought it was dumb too- itll be yet another culture shock this year- but if you start off liking high school, maybe you wont hate it all the way, like me |

 what do you think it says....if so obvious. Group: Member Posts: 1,838 Joined: Sep 2004 Member No: 52,420 |
Dont worry about such petty things like who you should be with and what to do ....you gonna procrastinate and dwell on it .....and when that happens you wont be able to move on ....ive learned this from experience , you will be deeply affected if your nervous everyday .....just be yourself .....act the way you normally have and everything will be alright .....if you want to change change for the better make no friends work harder etc ....but never worry about it .....because sooner or later ...you will think pessimistically .....

Bahaha, I'm going through that too.
Just calm down, work hard, and try to make room for your social life. You'll probably be fine. |

Awwwwww. You kids are so young. I'm gonna be a Junior this year, upperclassman. Hooray.
I loved my freshman year. In all honesty, I think it was my best year ever. Lots of firsts. It's not bad at all, I promise. But then again, no one knew I was a freshman because most of my friends were older and I'd been asked if I was a senior quite often, so I'm not sure how it could have been if that didn't happen. Nonetheless, it was a great year. Be on the lookout, though. Most upperclassman aren't very fond of Freshmen, they tend to cause drama. Just be smart and enjoy your high school experience. |

the rules for freshies at my school- they'll probably apply most places
- walk on the right side of the hall. don't stop - don't carry around a map or schedule. - don't congregate in a group in the hall. - don't carry more than 2 books in a backpack. if you can't open your locker, borrow a friends. don't carry more than 1 book+2 binders without a backpack. - bring your lunch on the first day, to make sure you get food. - look like you know where you're going. don't stop to read signs. even if you're lost. - if someone says 'freshmen' NEVER turn to look at who said it. - don't talk about freshmen friday. |

 NO. I'm not 13. or 14. or 15. or 16. Group: Member Posts: 4,616 Joined: Jul 2004 Member No: 30,577 |
It's not that bad, really. Just don't be annoying (basically, don't let the whole room hear your conversations about Naruto or whatnot..I'm still annoyed at these 2 freshmen in my art class who talked about anime every single day...haha), don't clog up the hallways with your friends, USE FOLDERS or thin binders because they save your back, carry your huge textbooks in your arm (not more than 2!), act like you've been in that school your whole life, and ummm hang in there..you've got 4 more years to go.
