Didn't realise how young you are.

Here at my university (which is so Opus Dei) you aren't allowed to wear ripped jeans, or sleeveless shirts. Girls must wear a skirt that reaches below the knees and no plunging necklines. I once made a paper on it, calling it the 'School Dresscode (of Oppression)' and made the english teacher laugh.

When I wear my more gothier clothes I get the usual harsh stares from the ignorant preps and wanna-be gangsters every now and then, and sometimes I elicit some unwanted advice from a prof about my eyeliner or how I should go to the counselor over some imagined mental illness or depression.

Ah well, wouldn't have it any other way.
