February 22, 2015 How to fit in at a new school Brandon, I just moved to this new school, and I’m a total nobody! At my old school everyone knew me, and I had a ton of friends. I had girls constantly crushing on me, and I was All District in EVERY SPORT I played!! Now, I can’t try out for any sports because it’s mid-season, and at lunch I sit all alone like a big loser. I’m basically walking around the school like an invisible zombie. This totally sucks, and I don’t know what to do! The Invisible Zombie Kid Dear The Invisible Zombie Kid, It must be a huge shock to your system, to feel invincible one day and invisible the next. I’m not the most popular kid in school, but I’m pretty well-liked, and I’m sure I’d feel the same way as you if more people said “What’s up?” to the janitors than to me. Even though I haven’t been in your (star athlete) shoes before, I know what I’d tell myself if I were the new kid. First, you’re not a nobody; it’s just that nobody knows you yet. Yet. They don’t know why all the girls used to crush on you. They don’t know about all your skills. All they know is that you’re new. But you’re still that same talented, likeable guy – and other people will see it as soon as you give them a chance. Second, you’re not sitting all alone because you’re a loser; you’re sitting all alone because you’re choosing not to ask people if you can sit with them. In a perfect world, all the guys who play sports would walk up to you and say, “Hey, man. We can tell that when you’re not sitting, eating a Sloppy Joe, you can shoot a mean 3-pointer, so come hang out with us!” But this isn’t a perfect world. So you’re probably going to have to get up and introduce yourself. And third, sure, it sucks that you can’t try out for any sports. But that just means you have a chance to try some new things to see what else you’re good at. Maybe you have artistic skills, or you’re an awesome writer, or you have a talent for photography, like me. If you try something new instead of sitting on the sidelines, you’ll definitely meet some new people. And I’m sure girls will be crushing on you in no time. I hope this helps!

DJ_Daisy says February 28, 2015 at 12:57 am I kind of know how you feel…. I used to be GREAT at sports but now people are just….yeah…….. just be yourself. Sign or tryout for sports you WANT to be on.Don’t mind about other people ignoring, they DON’T know how you feel and who you are on the inside. it better to contact with old friends to pick up tips for starting a new school. plus if people judge you from your appearance thats the worse thing ever. if they do, you’ll soon just find new friends that don’t stand out that much at all. in fact i bet when you meet them, they’ll tell you how they feel on their first day of their new school and they felt like a invisible zombie too… hope thing work out. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF! 😀
laila says February 27, 2015 at 9:05 pm Ok, here’s the deal Brandon. I told the guy I like I like him but here’s the thing: he used to talk to me a lot but now he only says hi rarely! What should I do to get him to talk to me again? help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :{
