Awkward Glances...AGs

I'm one of those people that tend to stare off into space when I'm thinking...or not:D Most of the time this happens at school when I'm bored, tired, or I can't figure something out. If you are a dreamer, like me, then this has probably happened to you.

Last year, I was just looking around my classroom, kinda looking through the people and objects surrounding me, not really at them. Then, I accidentally caught the eye of another bored student looking around. We held each other's gaze for about 2-3 seconds. However brief that exchange was, it was so darn awkward and somewhat embarrassing...... 

Afterwards, I told my friend about it and we came up with the name "Awkward Glances", or "AGs" for short. This term we made up just describes the whole weird vibe you get after and one of those awkward glances.

I now realize why awkward glances are so....well awkward! Here are some reasons:

1. When a guy and a girl accidentally catch each other's eye it makes them all spazzy(NOT snazzy, you dumb dictionary). Why? Because they are both thinking: "OMG!!!!!!! He/she just looked at me! That must mean they have a crush on me!" This will cause the two people to be constantly glancing at the other person to see if they are looking at them. Don't they realize that the more they look, the more it may seem like they like that person?! Why get all hormonal about it when really nothing actually happened? High school is so annoying sometimes....

2. When two girls look at each other, it is most likely because they are checking out the other person's outfit and what not. They kinda give the up-down sweeping look(I call it "elevator eyes"), deciding whether or not they approve of you and its pretty awkward. 

3. I can't even pretend to know what guys are thinking when they catch each other's eye. Maybe it's something like "Hey, what are you lookin' at?" ?

4. I hate it when you feel like someone is watching you from across the room and you turn around and catch their eye. However, I can say that it is somewhat satisfying to catch them in the act and be like "What? Why are you staring at me?":)

Anyways, I have learned not to care anymore. I honestly don't care what other people think, and I'm happy in my own day-dreamy kind of world:D 

NOTE: By day-dreamy,  I don't mean drug induced:)
