I really understand how you must feel, even though it like a thousand years (just kiddin) since I went to High School, but I can still remember it, it was really hard , I was very shy, only knew one girl, and we were in the same class at least for two years, but even I survived it, and made new friends, as I am sure you will, you are a lovely young lady with a great personality, that indeed will shine through, as soon as you start to feel more comfortable in your new surroundings.

My daughter will be off to High School in another year, so will be facing the same things as you, middle school is different, they don't for one thing shift all around the school all day and have time-tables, I think they should make it more like High School, as to prepare you more.,well thats how it is here in NZ anyhow.

I am glad you posted, and was not put off by that other thread, because as you can see there are some of us here, who want to hear your worries and share our experiences with you.

Good luck with your new school, keep us posted how you are doing ok.
