Ahem, let me put you in my shoes.
The pedals of my bike turn over and under. Signs of my school flutter over me. I continue pedaling until I reach the big doors. I walk up three flights of stairs and look at my friend. I wave. I squeeeeeze through my classmates to get into my locker. I bend down and drop my back pack in. My glasses slide of my nose and drop with a clatter. The class, unknowing what the noise was, peek over to make sure it’s ok. Then- my fear comes alive- they see- not my pictures of me and my friends- not pictures of Kylie Cantrall- not pictures of my favorite Japeneese characters- but my AG pictures.
I am so scared of people finding out I like AG! What would you do if you were me?
WAITTTTTTTTTTTT. So, are the pictures on your locker door, or did they fall onto the floor.
If the pictures fell onto the floor, just pick them up, put them into your backpack or folder/binder, and just do what you normally do. THEN, see #3
If the pictures are on your locker door/taped in your locker, then first of all, if you don't want anybody seeing them, they shouldn't be there. Anyways, just do your thing. Get your school stuff like normal, and calmly close the locker door (now envisioning my perfect locker vs my locker in reality. And now the conversation some boys had in the hallway about the metal used for lockers that mysteriously turned political. ummm yeah).
NEXT, if anyone asks, DO NOT LIE. Just say: (choose one. It may also depend on how they asked)
- So?
- I took them. So? -Yeah, I took them. Do you like them? -Yes, I took them.
-Yeah, I took them. I like photography. Do you? -Yeah!
If they try to have a conversation with you, continue along! Talk with them! Unless they're being mean. Anyways, if there's no polite convo, just walk to class. Remember us, your friends over here who TOTALLY support you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know it can be TOTALLY hard/scary/overwhelming when people find out you like AG or another "childish" or "immature" hobby. *NOTE THE AIR QUOTES*. AG is NOT IMMATURE. Some COLLEGE KIDS (well, they're technically adults, but that doesn't matter right now) like AG. You are an AMAZING person. Remember- if people don't like you, they're only a s m a l l fraction of the people on earth! If you like you, you're good to go! Yes, it's embarrassing when that boy plays your AG YouTube videos in class or everyone needs to conjugate at the desk right by yours to see all your AG pics, but it'll die down soon. YOU GOT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gtg eat dinner/go down to the basement to the deep freezer to try to find a frozen personal pizza. Byeeee!!!
YOU GOT THIS!!!
