I'm starting my first year of high school in September, and i'm looking for suggestions about what I should get involved in. Things like drama, cheerleading, different groups and clubs. When I started junior high in grade seven, I pretty much became anti-social. I wouldn't join anything because I thought i'd suck at it and that was a huge mistake. I got so quiet and felt awkward around everybody all the time, all three years I was there. I never had the chance to get to know anyone new. My last year of Junior High was complete torture. I had this like..reputation as being the quiet one who never talks. So I felt like if I started talking all of a sudden, people would think I was weird .. I dont even know what was going through my head. But now i'm starting at a new school with new people and I want so badly to get rid of that stupid reputation. If anyone could suggest books, or something to help me get over my shyness, that would be great too.
Thanks guys
