Who people think you are, compared to who you know you are.

She walks down the corridor, keeping her head down. If she can't see them then she is invisible. They all know her as a quiet, reserved human being - seemingly uninteresting, not worth bothering with. She's the kid with her top button done up at all times, striped school tie in the supposedly appropriate and correct position. She has a miniscule band of friends and doesn't fit with the rest, so why is it worth bothering with her?

But hidden behind her school-day façade, this girl is much more alive. Weird, nerdy, geeky, slightly eccentric, loud, proud and happy. She has many exciting and unusual hobbies, loves to read books and write stories; even has plans to travel the world one day.

She just chooses when and who to show it to.
Sorry about that.
