Making Friends in a New Environment
Imagine being in the hallway of a crowded school. The beil is ringing and countless students are changing classes. The noise of conversation and the smell of freshly sharpened pencils fill the air. You're new in town and this is your first day at school. You're afraid that you won't fit in, someone will make fun of your hair, or you'II just simply embarrass yourself by saying the wrong things. But with the following suggestions, you'II know what you should do to achieve in a new surrounding.By swallowing your fears and taking a chance, you'd be surprised at all the possibilities that can occur by doing extracurricular activities. You'll make friends, contribute to your school's overall success, and increase your confidence along the way. Volunteering also does wonders and it looks really good/on college applications as well. Participating in extracurricular activities is an excellent way to make friends and become active in your school.
Even though you might feel afraid to speak to others,it's important to remember that being a nice guy goes a long way, When you show people that you are friendly,it tells them that you are a good person who gets along well with others. Encourage yourself to be the first one to talk to people. It's quite possible that they are just as nervous around others as you are, so make them feel comfortable and be the first to speak up.
Nobody likes a gossiper or someone who stabs them in the back. Would you like someone to tell your most forbidden secrets to the entire world? Of course not, so it isn't wise to do it to someone else. It's the golden rule: Do to others as you would have them do to you.

Trust is something to be cherished and valued, and showing others that you can be relied on is essential to making new friends.

With more and more teens using these sites just about every second of every day, it would be wise to start your own Facebook account to connect with possible friends. Just remember to use these sites safely and wisely.
This is the most important factor when you adapt to a new environment. Stay true to who you are and be confident. By staying true to yourself and your own beliefs, you are showing the world that you are an individual who is proud of who you are, This kind of confidence is like a magnet. It will attract all kinds "of people into your life, and these people could possibly turn into new, lifelong friends. Simply put, you cannot live a genuine Iife if you yourself are not genuine.
