I can't believe I'm gonna have my first photography class today. I'm so pumped up. I quickly made my bed and took a shower. I got dressed in ripped white skinny jeans with a baby blue T-shirt, white jacket and blue shoes. I put my flower crown with blue flowers on it on my head and sprayed some cologne.

I left the house and went to drink a coffee. I saw that they were looking for new staff and since I don't have a job I should really think about it. I put the paper in my backpack and left the coffee shop.

I made my way to the building where we're gonna have the photography classes. Looks like we are a group because I saw some more people in the room waiting for the lady who will teach us.

There was this one guy who was cute and was looking at me. I don't know from where came the confidence to walk up to him but I did.

''Hi, my name's Cameron.'' - I said as held my hand out for him to shook it. ''Hello, Cameron. I'm Jackson. It's nice to meet you.'' - he said as he shook my hand. ''Nice to meet you too.'' - I said and smiled at him.

After that the lady came and first we introduced ourselves and then we talked about basic stuff when it comes to being a photographer. It was very fun and it felt awesome to be doing what you enjoy.

After we were done Jackson came up to me. ''Wanna go for a walk and get to know each other?'' - he said and I nodded happy that someone actually wants  to be around me. We started walking and he led me to some place to have lunch.

''You have an interesting style, Flowercrown.'' - he said and I smiled at the nickname he gave me. ''Thank you. People look at me weird and disgusted but I don't really care.'' - I said and he nodded. ''They're just assholes.'' - he added and I laughed.

The waitress came and we both ordered. ''So what made you want to become a photographer?'' - I asked. ''I love taking pictures and I just want to become better at it and I wanted to meet new people.'' - he said and I nodded. ''What about you, Flowercrown?'' - he asked and again I laughed at the cute nickname.

''I've wanted to become a professional photographer since I was little but I didn't have the courage to do it until recently when I met someone special to me who helped me realise that I should follow my dreams and do what I'm passionate about.'' - I said and then our food came.

We started eating and having small talk and getting to know each other better. He was shocked when I told him about all the bullying and hatred towards me just because I was gay. Finally someone who understands me like Shawn did. I feel like we'll become good friends.

After we were done we exchanged numbers and went our seperate ways. I thought about it and I really needed a job so I went back to the coffee shop  and talked to the manager. We had a quick interview and he accepted me. I'm starting work tomorrow and I'm very excited.

After that I went and bought myself a new camera for the classes. Next time we're having an outdoor lesson and we'll be actually taking pictures with tips from the lady called Mrs. Forbs.

I feel like I'm finally gaining control over my life for a change...
