OMG I'm super scared of my first day of High School! Help plz!?

• In 3 days (next Monday) i'm going to be going to my first day of high school. I am pretty much a preppy sort and i was fairly popular in middle school but since i'm going to a high school i'm not zoned for i don't know many people. My mom says I'll be fine because i'm social and i ALWAYS make new friends. I'm also going to be active in drama and hopefully cheerleading (if i make the squad) but i am still afraid of being a social reject and just over-all not doing well. Any tips or words of reassurance to help me? They would be greatly appreciated!!! :)

  hey again full_of_questions! this is going to be a long answer... lol. don't you even worry about high school! by the sound of things, it seems you've got a pretty good group of friends, and you're outgoing. the fact that you're going to be involved in activities like cheer and drama is great! i did cheer my freshman year, and i seriously made so many friends! it's really cool because it allows you to make friends with people in other grades. be sure not to stick to just freshman because then you're missing out on a lot of great people who have been through all the stuff you're about to experience over the next four years. and if you've never been a social reject, chances are you're not going to start being one. main thing? as everyone else has said, don't lose your identity. you've got to be your own person no matter what. as long as you're happy with who you are and how you act, you're going to be satisfied. confidence is key. i say this as someone who enjoyed all four years of high school, was involved in a bunch of stuff... and just so happened to be student body president. :) have a GREAT year! you're going to be fabulous! and keep me posted on how you're doing. :D <3.THEfashionista.
