Starting High School next year...

Starting High School next year, getting anxiety about it as I am going to a school where I know NO ONE and I'm moving 30 minutes away.. I really need some advice as I am very awkward in social situations and not sure on how to cope with these situations. Any answers are appreciated :).

First thing to recognise is that everything you feel is perfectly understandable !
Nobody likes change. Especially when you feel vulnerable about it !
But your school and hopefully your folks too will be aware of that !
So you already have their support !
New place means you have to find new friends too.
What a nightmare !
But it won't take long, trust me.
You'll be put into a class and you'll figure out pretty quickly whose worth steering clear of and who will gravitate toward you !
All those new teachers too !
Ugh ! So.....Who is the grumpy one ? Who is the mushroom ? (The Fungi, get it ?)
Who's the stickler for the rules ? Who's the friendly one ? Etc I bet it takes you less than a week to figure that one out !!
And come the end of week 1 you'll have ALL these answers !
It's just nerve wracking not having a clue where you're going until then !
You'll be fine ! Trust yourself. You know more than you THINK you do !!!
