| The time of living in a house for forty years have passed. Most families move due to their jobs transferring or relocating to another area. Each time the family moves, the kids have to go to a new school and meet new people. |
Here are some helpful tips to making your transition:
1. Don't change to fit in. Being yourself is the best way to attract the
people who really become life long friends.
2. Keep in touch with the people from your old school. Keeping a
book with phone numbers, email addresses and connecting on
MySpace is a great way to growing your friend base.
3. Attend school functions. Going to the games at your school will
allow you to be seen around school, and the more people get to
see you, the more they want to know you.
4. Be friendly. Putting on a mean face and hanging by yourself may
make others feel you don't want any friends. Socialize and let
your beautiful personality shine through.
