Hey people, it's Gizem! We didn't upload any posts for a week, because all of us were on holiday, sorry for that.

So, I know that being a freshman is not eays for most of us, so as a person who has been a freshman in high school, here are so tips for you.

 1. Go and have a look.
If you can go and have a look at your school before a few days it stars, and get used to it at least a bit, will help you a lot.

2. Get everything done.
Getting everything done, before the big day will help you, gain you more time to get ready and you won't worry about being late. Get your backpack done, choose what outfit you are going to wear, decide what you are going to do with your hair or face the night before.

3. Sleep early, wake up early.
 You should definitely sleep early before the big day! No one wants be late on the first day of their school, right?

4. Contact with old friends.
I mean you don't have to contact with old friends because believe me you will gain some new and better ones, but of coure you can still be friends with some of your old friends. What I'm saying is, if you are scared of being alone, just ask them if you can sit together at the launch, or at the breaks.

5. Be kind.
If someone smiles at you, smile back. If someone compliments at you, compliment back. But don't be fake, if you don't like the person, but don't be rude at the same time, you know what I'm saying?

6. Get your schedule.
It is so important to get your schedule as soon as possible you arrive to your school, because then you can figure it out, where your classes are, and decrease the chance of being late on your first day. And also, you don't have to worry about if you should ask some strange people at the hallway when you have your schedule.

7. School Map
If your school gives you a map, get that as soon as possible too. Then you can have ideas about where the cafeteria, library, teacher's room etc. are. You can also have a look at the website of your school for both the map and your schedule.

8. Embarrassing yourself.
That is not a big deal! I mean come on, everyone has a funny, embarrasing story about school. I know that it sounds so bad, when you say embarrassing yourself in front of the WHOLE school. But you know what? This is high school. Maybe they will laugh at you, maybe they will stare at you, maybe a person will be kind to you, maybe a person will help to you. But the next day, everyone will forget about you. Remember, every new day is a new beginning. Even though people say that first impressions are really important, there is always a chance to change it.

Hope I helped you guys! Good luck with the first day of school, or with going back to school. I'll see you next week, bye!
