When I was younger I used to have a lot of people thinking I was really scary or standoffish, but I was actually just shy and autistic. I didnāt have many friends at uni and on the last department party I was drunk with people on my course and they were telling me how they thought I was too cool and edgy for them and I was like āI didnāt really have many friends and I mostly sat aloneā and they were like we all thought you had cool friends outside of uni and were really sorry. But that is what I get for wearing corsets to lectures and having half my head shaved and then purple hair! more recently and throughout my life people have often seen me as very serious or miserable because they only see my work, and are surprised to know Iām actually a silly goose whose pretty funny on occasion.
