[Advice] Transferring to a new school
I'm finishing my first year of normal high school, and transferring to a vocational school to study programming. The town I'm currently going to school in is really small - I've been going to school with basically the same ~120 kids for all 9 years of school.
The new school is in an adjacent town, and the school's population is ~4x what it is in my current town. I'll be going from knowing everyone to knowing absolutely nobody.
I'm very nervous.
If you've transferred before, how did you adjust? What was it like?

Transferring schools can be scary at first, but it's usually fun. You will have went to two different schools so that means 2 times the friends. It gives you a chance to meet new people and start over again. Finding your way around can be tricky, but just ask someone who looks nice for directions. Using the "I'm a new student" is a great way to meet friends!
