School strut: Can I get it right?
I must admit, I love dressing up for school. And even with the dress code and all these restrictions, I still love it! Sure, I do get lazy at times (a lot, actually!) but I like thinking of what outfit to wear, mixing and matching clothes etc.
I guess it’s a girl thing. Kind of like playing with a barbie doll except, its just me! HAHA
What I don’t like, however, is the “stares” and weird looks I get from other students especially, when I wear my boots. It makes me feel super conscious! They must think I’m such a “feeler” or a wanna-be, trying-hard by wearing “unusual” outfit to school (meaning: not the typical shirt + jeans + Jansport). I actually don’t like being the center of attention so I’m kind of bothered by it :|
That’s why I try to avoid places in school that have a lot of people. HAHAHA
But at the end of the day, it all comes down to me and what I think about myself. As long as I think I look presentable enough to face the world, I don’t care about the stares/glares/smirks. I’m just gonna put on my earphones, scan my awesome playlist, pump up the volume and pretend I’m invisible! (kinda am, actually! LOL superpowers!!)

Anyway, my title is from a song again!
Its from Fireworks’ Decline of midwestern civilization.
If you like punk/punk rock, you’d love this band!! Go and listen!! :)
