To Belong
"Geek!"
"Loser!"
"Weirdo!"
Everyday is just the same as I make my way through the crowded hallways of my high school. Those too blinded by their own ego to see my worth. Those who mock what they can't understand, and so mock pretty much everything. At first it hurt. I wanted to be liked, and having people judge me before they knew me was frustrating. Yet now, as I stroll up the halls, it doesn't faze me. Why?
Could it be that graduation is mere weeks away?
Could it be that I have a scholarship to study art at a prestigious university?
Why no. It is because I am completely safe inside my deviantART hoodie. Safe inside the fleecy warmth of my dark grey hoodie, I am immune to their words. I pull up the hood, turn up my music and ignore the world, with the exception of those great enough to recognise the logo on my chest. When they see me, we share a knowing smile. Admire each other's deviantWEAR.
That logo is the sign that I am part of a greater clique than those loud-mouthed bullies could ever hope to imagine. I belong to deviantART.

This is for everyone out there who has ever been subjected to bullying because of their interests and talent.
Because we all know that the feeling of belonging is important, and we should be accepted for who we are.
deviantWEAR can unite us and give us a feeling of belonging to a social group that surpasses the heirarchy of school.
Also it just feels good to wear a hoodie
