    It's a big change to move from one culture to another -- especially if the two cultures are France and the US (you didn't say where you are now so I have presumed). So you will need to give yourself a some time to make adjustments, to study a bit on how its done here and change your strategies to better suit your new culture. Its hard but it can be done. To help in the interim, you might try to contact old friends to touch base with them too. They can help remind you that you are wanted.

    In the meantime... until you do make a new friend right where you live... let me say bon jour cherie and WELCOME!

    Bonjour (lol) ioinie, I have faced this problem before so I know what I'm talking about,--Your going to make friends it just takes a little while, just talk to the people in your class even if its just "can i borrow a pen" it works! Trust me! Im speaking with experience and to date its been my 4rth move overseas and soon to be 5th ( annoyingly difficult, but it gets better)

    -all the best!:)
