Recently I start involving with social circles, by joining the clubs in my school. I found 2 good ones:
- Singing club
My singing was terrible, but I got away with it because it was my first time there.
- Trivia club
I had zero skill in trivia, but again I got away because it was my first time there.
How can I get along / provide social value, without prior skills for these clubs?

My aim is getting female friends / natural friends. But to do so, I have at least getting along with the group and looking cool.

Any solution?

CKTC,

What made you join those clubs? Did they sound like skills you'd like to have, and grab your interest? I'm in freestyle club (I rapped with my friends so it sounded sweet) and every semester there's kids that have never rapped in their lives, but start there skills right then and there. Unfortunately most leave after two meetings, likely because they compare their bars to that of the seniors / best of the group.
So, if you wanna stick with those just keep at it, let your social value in that context grow. Maybe talk with those in leadership positions and ask for advise. My president taught me a great lesson or two, and watching the rest of the group has allowed my raps to continue in growth.

Are there any clubs on your campus that you looked at that align with your interests/skills/hobbies? That'd probably be the best move imo, because then you'll make easy connections and relate to those that you're with.

My aim is getting female friends / natural friends. But to do so, I have at least getting along with the group and looking cool.

Just be yourself man.
I'd respect the fact that you're a new guy, and not go running into social situations / conversations for attention or looking cool. I think it's best to sit back for a bit, calibrate to the people you're with, and relate how you can. If you can't relate to them, ask them to explain things you don't understand.
See if the club throws social events / parties, and just shake hands and meet people. Build your connections one at a time.

Thanks for the feedback, Hueman.

I agreed, even if I had no starting skill for that club, I could still grow my social value there.
I'll keep the singing club and acting club, since I'm interested in those skills.
