how to be cool in highschool without looking like a complete tool.
don't have a big backpack; pusillanimous individual repellant
make sure you don't have some gay ass haircut. girls like a guy with style, not a cigarettegy haircut because you like long hair.
nobody wants to be friends with the forgeter that smells. Smells bad, or smells like axe, don't smell. (unless you aren't cheap and use cologne)
don't expect everyone to like you. you have to get them to like you, they're not gunna just get right up there and respect you.
WHATEVER THE forget YOU DO, DO NOT BE THAT KID WHO SITS ALONE, INSIDE, ON A DS/PHONE/PSP.
playing tag at school gets you exiled from the cool club. don't be a cigarette.
Don't be annoying, this rule should be inherit.
Make a lot of friends. Seriously. If a lot of people know you, a lot of people will have your back. Just make a good reputation.
take it from a guy who totally changed his senior year for the better, and had a great time. I was a loser my freshman year, and i guess i got better because I finally started realizing what was socially acceptable/likable.
