jeans to me are too thick and stiff and heat-trapping yet they transfer cold air upon the skin readily which is the worst of all sartorial worlds. they also require a buff or beanpole physique to wear properly. they are made for perfect people. I prefer wearing thin and breathable fabric slacks wit...

This often happens to me when I'm in a group of people. I lose interest quickly because group dynamics are usually not worth the bother. I'll fixate on objects in the environment.

My name is Julia and I'm a junior in high school. I overheard some of my peers gossip about how they thought I was autistic in the hallways a few days ago.
