Hey what's up, guys? It's Nia, and this is what you need to go...
Wait-- No. About going--
Let me try that again.
Hey what's up, guys? It's Nia Sioux.
Hey, it's Dang Matt Smith.
Hey, it's Sophie Dawsey and you're watching Nickelodeon's YouTube channel.
And this is what you need to know about going back to school.
[music playing]
Favorite back to school memory
was going to my locker, opening it up,
and notes falling out.
'Cause you know, there's some girls who wrote me some notes.
I opened it and I read it,
ad it said, "please stop putting notes in my locker."
Yeah...
My favorite back to school memory was one time we were playing dodgeball,
and I won the whole game for my team, and...
That was a pretty great moment.
Just gotta say.
If it helps you a little bit...
Went into school first day, went into the wrong home room,
and had to switch home rooms whenever they didn't call my name.
So yeah, there you go. It happens to everyone.
- That's actually kind of brutal. - Right?
[laughing]
[music playing]
You always make a statement.
Like, wear all orange like me.
That way people can see you walking from a mile away.
You want people to know that you're there to handle business.
Serious business.
I feel like if you present yourself well,
it helps you start off the school year better, so I mean...
Going to school fresh-faced, happy,
make a good impression on people.
On the first day of school, you gotta dress fashionable.
You gotta pre-plan your clothes.
You gotta totally be you when you're dressing for school.
If there's a fashion trend that you really like, I say go for it.
But if there's a trend that you like, don't want to do, be different.
Do what you want to do. You don't have to stick to a trend.
You can be whoever you wanna be.
I'm following the trend of matching,
but I'm doing it in my own way, my own little style.
Put your own twist on it.
You know, 'cause then whoever your crush is,
they're gonna notice and then, you're in there.
[music playing]
Oh.
I'd say play it cool and take your time if you have a crush.
'Cause there's no rush. There's no rush.
You gotta play it cool. Wait for your moment.
It's like a lion in the jungle.
When you have a crush in school, you gotta play it cool.
Don't be too excited at first.
Just play it all cool.
And then tell them.
[music playing]
I'd say the easiest way to make a friend is food.
Just give them food. Give them pizza, give them ice cream.
Easy way to make a friend.
Be funny, and if you're not funny,
let them look at your answers on the homework.
That'll make you some friends.
If you see someone like, lonely or like,
kind of by themselves at like, lunch or something,
try and sit with them. Make a conversation.
Sharing your lunch, I mean...
That always helps. People like food.
[laughing]
[music playing]
Food.
Food solves all problems.
To have separate friend groups come together.
You just have everybody sit in the cafeteria because
food has everybody come together.
When you're all at the lunch table just eating,
you don't have to make for pleasant conversation.
You don't have to, you know, have something in common.
'Cause you're stuffing your faces with Taco Tuesday food.
I feel like the best part of having friends at school is
because you can have many friends.
You don't have to just stick to one group.
You can have multiple friends.
So, you don't have to end one friendship to go to a different friendship.
Not everyone's gonna get along.
So you just have to remember, be the person who you are,
and be friends with whoever you want.
For all of you starting school,
just get in there, learn, have fun.
Being nervous or having the jitters whenever you go to school,
that's normal. Pretty much everyone has it.
Make new friends.
- And have fun at school. - Woo!
[laughing]
- We did it! - And that's what you need to know
about going back to school.
Thanks for watching and let us know what you're wearing
for your first day of school down in the comments below.
Class dismissed.
