din attend orientation?
tts where u make frens and do stupid things together

I was in the same position. I didn't get along with my class... I had a few friends outside of class from CCA and over time I considered them my close friends... then we fell out and I was left alone again. I'm glad I had upcoming A-levels to take my mind off of it... though if this is really bothering you, perhaps you should do some reaching out? Or if you can cope with solitude, that works as well... please elaborate on your situation.

"ECA" sia!
u wat era one! -
ECA is what?

In my time, having jiejie and gege was all the rage... random people on IRC also can ... TS, all the advice people give you will boil down to "make the first move". Having the right attitude (thick skin a bit, not desperate, don't make friends just for business potential) is more important than telling you how to jio a friend to go fishing.

Hey Don't Fret! If you are a guy, im sure enlisting into the army will help you make new friends! Alternatively, you can join interest groups outside of your school and meet new people

if no friends in JC, there are two possible reasons:
1. you are the only one in your secondary school clique that goes to the JC you are in.
2. you are all along a loner.
If it is the first reason, no worries, gradually, you will have friends.
If it is the second reason, it is very likely that you are also not that kind who likes to talk. If so, I recommend that you train yourself to talk, either in front of a mirror, or in front of a camera (film yourself talk). Because not only does it enable you to socialise, the oral exams you take depends on it too.
if go JC, means have to go to university after that, otherwise with just that A level certificate, it's not going to get you anywhere (or limited options).
Now at JC, you only have project works and oral examinations. Next time go University it is going to be even more challenging if you still continue to have no friends.

Me too. I just went into a new JC, there is nothing I like there. Orientation for the rest of my friends seem fun but for me, its just a terrible time and hoping school will end everyday. Is it possible if i do well and transfer to other schools next year?
-
:( I made some friends in JC but I wasn't there since orientation. Just smile at others; it's wonderful how a simple smile can brighten someone's day!

Hello!
I think I can understand your feelings super well. Was stuck in your situation in primary school and secondary school; was bullied, had no friends. Joined my favourite CCA, made a few friends, but then they went over to someone else more 'in' and 'fun', so I was left alone again.
I then joined this creativity based competition, where I made good friends with my fellow team mates. This competition really helped me learn how to open up more and just yknow be unafraid to lose face in front of people. Sometimes, I feel we are afraid to make friends because we are afraid that they will judge us, so we put up walls y'know? The competition happened in Sec 2 and moving onto Sec 3, I found a group og irreplacabe friends I'm still friends with now (4 yrs and counting).
Don't be afraid. You cannot wait for people to come up to you if you want friends. Want friends? Approach them. Don't be afraid to show bits of your true self if you are holding it in. It's genuinity that people are drawn to and I'm sure you'll find many friends if you hang in there and try a little harder.
Jiayou! :)

Thankyou people for the encouragements. :) Its getting a little better. I'm not someone who is quiet and would put up walls against people, in fact, I am usually the outgoing and loud one. But my classmates have contrasting characters with me, it is really difficult to have conversation with them when they are the quiet and drawn back ones.
