Sometimes I feel like I'm not scene enough compared to other people in the scene community, but then I have to remember being scene is not about what you wear, it's about expressing yourself. Recently, I fell like I've felt more free, finally being able to express myself because I worked up the courage to tell my mum, I've been secretly scene for a year and it was hard because hiding it made me feel like I didn't wanna be scene or that I was lying to myself about this, but the more I wore it, the happier I felt. She's slowly becoming more accepting of my style and how I wanna express myself. There are restrictions to what I can and can't wear, such as no skulls and nothing like mini skirts.

People should not be afraid of being scene or standing out in general. "I would love to be scene but I'm too scared to!", dress how you want, say what you want.
