Jr. high or high school?

I'm going into high school next year. Anddd I think I'm the most nervous out of everyone I know. I seriously hate school because I hate how life's planned out. What's easier? What's more fun? Everyone always says how much high school sucks; I'm nervous =/

Dont stress! You can either have a sketchy time in HS, or a good time. You usually join a clique the moment you get there. So, you can basically choose your HS experience (as in, get good marks, make good friends, have fun but dont go crazy -- you'll have a good time! and Vice Versa for a bad time).
Hope I helped!

hey, I know what you mean, I went to a high school with 2 friends and we were really shy, but honestly, you really have nothing to worry about !!All you have to do is be yourself, I know it sounds corny, but its the key to fitting in. People will like you for who You are. What ever you do dont change your personality to fit in with any "group". Life is too short to be anyone else but you. High school will be the best years of your life, look foward to them and do the above- you will have great memories to look back on in the future =]]

***Everyone always says how much high school sucks***

That's a generalization...

Not everyone hates high school. And your experience will be determined by your outlook and attitude.

highschool is pretty much like middleschool expect theres more freedom. you have to try you best to avoid temptations and try to stay on track though cause there are many things that can stray you from your path to success. high school is fun though so dont worry =] just try to make good friends. and work hard

thanks guys.
well I think I'm nervous cause it's just I'm not as close with the friends I started with when I came into jr. high then right now, leaving jr. high. and so I don't want to loose any more friends. I guess it'll happen a lot?

I forgot to mention how superrr afraid I am of the older kids. they seem to like hate the group I'm in...at my school you have to be in this one group for the older kids to like you. I used to be in it but then I realized there's too much drama so I bailed. what should I do?!

oh yeah I forgot to say I go to a private school. so I know everyone there. I've been there since pre-k and I'm sick of it.

About you not being very friendly with the people going to the same high school, im almost 100% sure that you will all stick together. I bet they will all be nervous, most people are, so at least you will have them for a while before you make new friends. Yes I know for definate that a lot of people change rapidly, people you would least expect to follow the crowd but thats life.
Please don't be in a group that your not comfortable being in just to satisfy others. Not everyone is going to like you, there are always that few that look for a reason to dislike someone. Don't worry about the kids in jr high, basically, when they go to high school, they will be just as wary as you.
Glad to help

Highschool is wayy better than middle school
So don't worry one bit.

High school is really a great experience; only when and if you keep up with your grades and hang out with the right people. Enjoy every second of it. I just graduated from high school and I know I'm going to miss it!

I personally think that high school is a lot beter than jr high. In jr high people are still trying to find themseleves, but in high school you have a better idea of who you are. In high school you find friends who you somehow just click with and get a long easily

The worst mistake you can make is to ditch a bunch of friends that you just started to hang around with just to fit in. It will ruin your experience in high school. You're going to hang out with a bunch of people who aren't your friend and aren't going to be your friend...just to find out in a few years that you should have just stuck with the people in your current group. Someone else said, and I'll repeat it: Don't stay in a group that you're not comfortable in. If you're seriously not comfortable with your group of friends, fine, leave them and find new ones. But if you're okay where you are now, just stick to it. Hang in there...maybe one day, you'll get closer to these friends you have now. You have to give it time.

And as for the older kids. They aren't going to like you at first...end of story. They aren't going to like you because you're younger...not because you're in one group over another over another...etc. Don't try too hard to get them to like you...the harder you try, the less they'll like you. They aren't going to hate you forever...one day they'll like you...give it time...

I advise that you and your group of friends talk about starting high school. I'll bet they're just as scared as you. Maybe that can be your bonding experience...talk about it with them.

Also, think of some activities that you and your friends can join either by yourselves or together. My high school experience was a pretty good time...because I was involved in stuff. I mean, don't over do it, of course. But join the theatre group, play tennis, run track, join the chess club, or if you play an instrument play in the band. You don't have to stick to activities at the school either: you can take dance classes together...or fence (shameless plug for fencing lol)...or you can get involved in scrapbooking or write together. It doesn't matter what you do, just decide to do it together, with your entire group of friends, or just with one close friend...whatever.

Getting involved at the school will make the transition easier and less scary. You'll make a lot of new friends (maybe even some of those older kids too) and you'll start to bond with some of your current friends.

Even if you decide not to try and do activities with your friends in high school, this transition is really important for the strength of your friendship. Don't stress out about it, but take it seriously. Talk with your friends...maybe you can help each other be more prepared for the experience.

Best of luck! :-)

thanks everyone!
so everyone's advice and comments calmed me down a bit. and I talked with some friends which helped a lot. I've also gotten in some sports at my school and started meeting everyone. hopefully I won't be nervous when I actually start lol but oh well.
