I Need Advice: School Reputation
I am becoming popular at school, guys. Let me explain how people viewed me during the majority of the current school year. I am very reserved, timid, introverted, and all those other words. I also take 4 advanced classes(I guess AP is what you would call it in high school but at my mid school it is a different acronym). So I am smart, believe it or not. People would often see me listening to the teacher, or drawing if it is too boring. I am always on my phone when given the chance. I have a few friends, but they are not really close. We became friends through geeky stuff. So how did this geeky art lesson attractive Yuri gain a reputation? Art. In English for some reason our teacher is telling us to draw something for our homework about each chapter in a book. And I got excited and started getting my creative juices flowing. People started peeking at my art and they were like,"Woah that's good!' and I'm like"Uh-t-thanks." Like it got to the point where I won't go a day without someone saying something about my art. And then, we had a gallery walk. Each group would go to a different group's art. And I kept seeing people huddle around my art while I am blushing in the distance. People had slips of paper they had to put on what they think is the best art, and I got 12 freaking slips. Okay, I guess I am not popular, only in my English class and a little in other advanced classes. But how do I deal with this? It is very overwhelming with this much attention.
May be overwhelming, but accept the compliments politely and go about your day. Maybe even chat with them, that's what makes me comfortable.
Good advice, thanks!
Middle school was a pain in the ass and the people at my high school are just annoying and stereotypical.
Try giving me your fortune
How do I give it to you
Have you tried locking up 16 of your "friends" in the school and forcing them to kill each other? It's a fun experience, full of fun and friendship!
I don't have 16 friends. I don't even have any really good friends at school.
That's the fun part, you don't need friends! Just a lot of money.
