Starting to hate high school?!!?

Right now you are in a first impression stage. Everyone is getting to know each other and subconsciously labeling each other. Now is not a good time to be shy. I know it's hard to strike up conversation, especially if you think it's going to be super awkward, but really, it's only awkward if you act like it's awkward because the person you are talking to will be able to sense your unsociableness (I love making up words to get my point across). Anyway, some good things to kick off a conversation would be a quick exchange of names and maybe which middle school you came from. If silence follows, you can perhaps start talking about what you think of the teacher or the school.

As for the teachers, the best you can do is try not to get on their bad side. Try to act like a student who wants to learn from them, it's always handy to have some teachers wrapped around your finger. Don't go full-fledged teacher's pet when you haven't started talking to some students though or else you will just be seen as a goody-goody.

High school is complicated, but not everyone is unfriendly! Just give it another go and try talking to people more. Even if people are in their little groups, it may be good to join if they don't look like they are talking about anything private. If someone is alone, you can talk to them, but just make sure it's someone you want to be associated with.

If you are looking for some friends and not just someone to talk to, you should get into a few personal questions (not too personal) and maybe arrange times to meet outside of classes (lunch, after school, clubs, etc). You also might want to consider sitting somewhere else at lunches. I know it sounds strange, but now would be a good time to move away from the friends you may not want to have (those simple ones who want to be with mean and immature people) because if they don't sit with you, they are definitely not your friend.

Sorry this is long, hope I helped!

I'm going to be very blunt in my delivery so bare with me and understand where I'm coming from. FÙCK them other students, and FÙCK those teachers. You go to that school everyday and do what YOU have to do to achieve your education and better your mind. Focus on them books and what you are learning and damn what everyone else is doing. Trust and believe I know exactly what you're going through because I went through it also. Just know that you're there for a reason and that you will one day excel higher than anyone who's not taking it seriously. Complete high school with the best of your abilities and go to college. Take courses that you feel will benefit you and become the next Bill Gates or

Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg and kill all those who ever doubted, teased, and were hostile towards you with your success. Don't ever let anyone make you hate bettering yourself. Fùck them. Go back tomorrow with your head high and don't let anything they come at you with bother you. Seriously.
