Passive Aggressive Hat War (that may or my not actually be happening)

I have special permission to wear a hat at school, because, well, just....because. I'm special. Just don't ask about it. Most of the staff and teachers know about it, but some of them still don't know that I have permission to wear hats. Some of the people I know also think me wearing hats is 'against the rules,' which technically it is. For everyone else. This causes some harassment and hat-stealing, which really sends me over the edge.
I alost ALWAYS wear SOMETHING on my head, even at home. (Slight tangent: I wear hats so much that I apparently 'look like a totally different person' without them. My good friend Audrey was doodling a picture of me on the bus and even added a hat. It's hard to imagine me without one.)
Anyway, I usually wear hats to school. This combined with the glasses and the almost-constant presence of coffee gives me the nickname "Hipster."
That, however, is beside the point. The point is that I'm currently (probably) in a hat war with some of my fellow students.
They don't have special permission to wear hats, and whenever a teacher sees them with a hat, they're told to take the hat off. Sometimes when this happens, I'm walking with that friend (wearing a hat, of course) and they shoot me a quick glare.  They don't usually say anything, of course, but sometimes they do.
"How come you get to wear a hat?" They sometimes ask.
"Just because." I usually reply, trying to grin cockily. "Because I'm awesome."
Once in Biology class, a boy (who shall remain anonymous) was told by the teacher to tae his hood off.  "Well how come Sara gets to wear a hat?" He asked, seemingly annoyed. Luckily, my biology class is awesome.
"Be cool, ____." Someone said. "Let Sara wear her hat."
Fellow students at this school are usually okay with my hat-y-ness, but, like I mentioned earlier, people steal my hat in class sometimes. This always freaks me out a lot, but I fortunately have very cool friends who understand and help me steal my hat back.
Thanks you guys, if you're reading this. I mean it. Thanks to you and you and you.
You guys are awesome, I don't know what I'd do without you <3

All of these Posts are Rather Pointless

But they're still fun.
Hey hey hey! How's life in the world of the reader (you)? Anything fun happen lately?
No?
Oh, well, okay. I guess since I don't really have much else to talk about, I'll be telling you more about myself.
Mostly my childhood.
Specifically my elementary school years.
In elementary school, I was waaaay different than I am now. I LARPed (Live Action Role Played) as some sort of mythical creature 24/7, and my friends and I had a club called the DC, or Dragon Club.
These days were mostly in 2nd through 5th grade, though. First grade.....bleh. Not so fun.
It was because I was a little kid and rather socially unacceptable. I didn't realize how bad it was at the time, but it was pretty bad.
I had relatively long hair that I always wore in two braids, and I was still talking in a tiny bit of a Texan accent. I tended to wear totally un-matching clothes ALL the time (and refused to wear jeans), I ate a ton but was super skinny, and....and just....I was kind of a jerk to everyone and I was rather cocky and full of myself. It was annoying.
To sum it up, I had straight-cut bangs.
Did I already mention how bad it was?

Here's an illustration of my elementary school self.
Like I said, it was bad. And this is how I met and introduced myself to my BFF of elementary school.

It's pretty bad.

I also ended up beating up a few football players who were my age after they insulted me and my BFF. 
Actually, they insulted my 'griffin's honor,' (LARPed as a golden griffin) which was a HUGE deal to me.

Here's a small comparison of what I thought I was and did compared to what I ACTUALLY was and did.

I thought I was all like:
A Griffin














But I was actually all like:














So that about explains my Elementary School Years.
I hope you had fun reading!
