Get a sense of the kinds of places they hang out either inside or outside of school and ask your friends to meet up at nearby places. Getting close will set the stage for possible encounters. Don't follow or stalk them! Just identify a few key places you could meet: near their locker, their lunch table, or a club they go to after school. Standing in line offers opportunities to strike up a conversation. It gets boring waiting in lines, and this makes people more open to talking to individuals they don’t already know.  School lunch lines, long lines at cafes, and waiting for rides are good chances to catch their attention. You can say something like, "I think I'm going to die of boredom if you don't help me. Know any jokes?" Or if you're in a lunch line, you can open with your own joke by saying, "Mind if I cut you? I'm really hungry." When you see them coming down the hall, walk towards them while pretending to read something or talk to a friend. When they get close, gently bump shoulders to strike up a conversation.  You can apologize sincerely, ask if their okay, and then introduce yourself. Or you can be more flirtatious. In an exaggerated and clearly playful manner, pretend to be hurt and ask them why they ran into you. Then make it clear that you were kidding and introduce yourself.

One-sentence summary -- Spend time near the places they hang out. Stand next to them in line. Bump into them in the hallway.

Q: Make sure you have a good foundation before you start practicing your performance piece. If you can, you should get a vocal coach to work through the basics with you. If not, you can find tons of tutorials online. Breath control is one of the most important skills a singer can have. Practice exhaling slowly from your diaphragm, which is the muscle under your ribs, alternating between “ooh” and “ahh” sounds. Notice how you can use your diaphragm to create different amounts of tension in your breath. Your lower abdomen should expand as you inhale and contract as you exhale. Play notes on an instrument, like a piano or guitar. Try to match the notes with your voice. If you don’t have an instrument on hand, try using an online keyboard. Good posture allows for the proper flow of breath, which makes for skillful singing. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms relaxed at your sides. Keep your chin parallel to the floor, your chest out, and your shoulders back. Lean forward a little bit, and keep your abdomen tight but expandable. Just like your muscles, you need to warm up your voice before you put it to work. You should warm up before every practice session. If you have a vocal coach, they’ll probably give you warm up exercises. You can also check out online singing tutorials. You should always begin your warm up with breath activation exercises, like hissing or trills. Then, do some scales that stretch your range. Finally, if you have time, you should work on improving techniques or skills that give you a little trouble.
A: Take singing lessons or watch online tutorials. Practice breath control. Perfect your pitch. Practice good singing posture. Do a thorough warm up before you sing.

Article: If you've given yourself a proper night of rest, this shouldn't be a problem at all. Set your alarm to give yourself at least an hour to get ready. Drink a fresh glass of cold water. After sleeping for 8 hours, your body will be in need of hydrating, and drinking cold water will give your body a jolt of energy to get you through your morning. Have a nice, long shower. Make sure you're clean and look reasonably well-kept. After your shower, put on the outfit you chose the night before. If you decide at the last minute you want a different outfit, you can open your drawers and try something new. Just make sure to watch the clock; you want to give yourself ample time to eat breakfast, and you don't want to risk being late for your first day! If you have dry skin and want to hydrate it, you can buy a good toner and skin cream. Applying a skin cream for at least a week should make most of the problem go away. There's no underrating what a strong, healthy breakfast can do for the rest of your day. Make sure you incorporate some fruits and vegetables into your breakfast, as they'll be the things that give you energy. Sugary cereals are okay, so long as they're only part of the overall breakfast. If you're feeling groggy, coffee helps in a pinch. Be sure not to drink too much, however, as an overdose of caffeine will leave you with anxiety and headaches. The quickest thing that can hurt your first day is being stressed out over being late. To make sure that doesn't happen, aim to be at school at least fifteen minutes before your first class. This will give you time to find out where your classes are, and you might even spark a conversation with a new friend. Some schools don't count being late for the first week of school. Find your class and get there. Once you sit down, be sure to bring out all of the materials you're going to need for the period. If the teacher hasn't said anything so far, a notebook and pencil should do just fine. While you're waiting for the period to start, you can take the opportunity to get to know the classmates around you. Chances are they're feeling some anxiety as well, so getting to know each other may prove to be mutually beneficial. Ask questions. Be an integral part of the period. The most important thing you'll want to accomplish with your first day is making a precedent for future great days at school. This includes fostering connections with teachers and classmates, asking questions if you have any, and keeping good notes. It's a good idea to keep each course's syllabus safe in your binder. There will be times later on in the year where you'll undoubtedly need to reference them. Keep them somewhere you can easily find them, so you can save yourself the embarrassment of having to ask for them again! Everyone is technically there to learn, but school is an amazing place to meet friends. Some of the friends you meet at school, you might end up having for the rest of your life. No time's better for meeting people than your first day, so come into the classroom with a smile, and don't be afraid to strike up conversation with other classmates. If you have social anxiety, being extra brave on your first day and making friends is a good way to help break out of your shyness. You'll soon find the vast majority of the people around you are potential friends you haven't bothered talking to yet! School clubs tend to start early in the year, so it's a good idea to look around at billboards. Most schools have lots of great clubs, and no matter what your interests are, you'll find at least a few are catered to an interest of yours? Do you love music? Join the school choir or guitar club. Do you love the cinema of Akira Kurosawa and Lars von Trier? The school's film club might be perfect for you. Clubs are a great way to nurture interests you already have, and a perfect outlet to meet people operating on a similar wavelength. If you're really interested in something there isn't already a club for, you might want to  start a school club yourself! While it may sound like too much to handle at once, you should remember that a first day at school should ultimately be a fun experience.  You are surrounding yourself with people you'll be spending much of the next year with, and there's no reason why you shouldn't have fun spending time with them. Learn to overcome the anxieties you're feeling, and remember to wear your best smile throughout the day. There's nothing like finally coming home after your first day at school. Your first day will feel strangely long compared to other days, largely because of how many different things and people you'll have been exposed to at once. Make sure to treat yourself. Snuggle up and watch your favourite film. Better yet, ask a friend you met earlier that day to hang out and do something together. Relax and feel good; you've made a great start to what should be an amazing year.
