To make friends , you must first be friendly . Everyone likes a friendly girl with a smile. You
can give your classmates a compliment. Say something nice about their dressing styles or
skills. Second, ask a question to start chatting. Find out what interests them and talk
about that, even if it doesn't interest you a lot. Ask your classmates questions and let
them be the experts.The conversation is more important than the topic. Finally, talk to
more people. Say hello to the people you meet. Sit with different groups of people in the
dining hall. If one person doesn't want to talk with you, find someone else to chat with.
Don't just think about being lonely. Do something about it! Smile and say hello , even to
the people who aren't your friends. Doing things differently will help produce different
results.
