Why am I having problems in HS? Please help!?

I'm a sophomore in HS at a small girls school (which I loved last year). Last year I found a good group of 4 friends (well, one girl is somewhat annoying, but the rest are good) and had fun. Well, school started Wednesday and for some reason, I feel like I'm not connecting. It's not that they're leaving me out or anything, they still act the same. I honestly don't know why I'm feeling this way.

Also, I have other friends and acquaintances (sp?) and I'm well liked at school. Not one of the "popular" girls, but well liked. I play sports (3 last year) and made varsity volleyball this year (The girls on the volleyball team are so awesome and supportive, it's crazy) and get good grades, if that helps you.

Like I said, no one's acting differently. I don't like feeling disconnected. Is it first week blues? HELP!

Update:

Also, what can I do to feel more connected?

Update 2:

So I guess it's normal; I'm growing up. But how can I deal with it?

    To begin with I think you are a very well adjusted young lady. Secondly, let me give you one piece of advice...Stick with the sports. I know it sounds korny, but when I look back at my life and wish i could change this or that or what not, when I quit playing sports is when it all started falling downhill. You are focused and dedicated to something. These are characteristics that successful likeable people in life have. I think you are heading in the right direction and you may feel disconnected because high school is the time in life who you really begin discovering who you are. You also begin to discover who your friends are. Just dont get distracted with being the coolest chick or partying or whatever. Stay focused and determined to have a great time in high school. If you do it right, it can turn out to be some of the best years of your life. I wish you luck!!

    I can relate to you. The one differance is I am a Freshman. I have really good friends and like yours nothing changed. I just don't feel into anything they do. ( But I go and have fun). I think that you just grew up. I mean you change and they didn't. They will later on but not right now.
