Don't make a sound.
But don't stop either.
Breathe slowly, calmly, you're not afraid

Or at least, you don't want them to think so.

One foot in front of the other.
Be brisk; this is high school
You don't want to seem too eager though
Nobody likes a nerd

Keep your head up.
Not too high though- don't want to look arrogant
Don't make eye contact
These are not your friends

A little cough escapes your mouth.
Reprimand yourself.
Don't make a sound
Need to sneeze?
Hold it in
Nobody likes loud-mouths.

Don't touch your hair.
It probably looks okay
and if it doesn't then you don't want to look vain.
Nobody likes a narcissist.

Shoelace undone?
Don't bother tying it yet.
That would mean you have to stop.
And pause your journey
Thus pausing everybody behind you
therefore pausing their journey

and you're not important enough to hold people up

****** expressions should be plain
Hard, cold, remote, isolated, indifferent

You are a maniacal socially anxious human being that shouldn't be allowed to be here.
You are not worth this.
You are a representation of leftovers from cool kids.
You are drowning in the deep end on the gene pool


You are not important
