Silly girls

My photo assignment for today was to take head shots of a local school's winter varsity sports teams. The portrait photographer that was shooting the individual and team shots set his backdrop and lighting equipment up in the school's auditorium. When he photographed the team photo, he took the players down to the gym. My job started when the players finished their individual photo with the portrait photographer, the next stop is over to me. I have them write their names on a piece of paper, two players stand side-by-side and I take the head shot for the newspaper. Exciting huh?

While the portrait photographer took the cheer team down to the gym to take their team photo, I stayed behind in the auditorium to read a book. I was sitting in the front row of the auditorium reading my book when I thought I was all alone. Out of nowhere I hear a teenage girl say, "I'm watching you, " and make some oohing sounds at me. After she did that her and her little friend thought it was so funny and started laughing. She continued to say that she was watching me and made some noises. Finally I said, "You're hilarious," and kept on reading my book. I never turned around to see if the girls were still standing there or not. I just figured ignore them and they will go away.
