JUST TELL A WHITE LIE

I live in a four-appartments complex and they all have a balcony with a view of the inner barkyard. When I take pictures of myself for the blog, I make sure the neighbors are not home because I don't want them to think of me as the crazy girl who takes pictures of herself. When I hear a car arriving I just run inside. It can be difficult when I use a tripod but by now, I’ve mastered the running-inside-with-a-tripod technique quite well.
Yesterday, I didn’t hear one of the neighbor come home. He is a young guy, younger than me and I think he waits tables for a living.

"Are you studying in photography" he asked me.

"…" I was caught off guard

"Because I see you often taking pictures." did he continue, waiting for an explanation.

"..."

I thought for a second to tell him about my blog but I figured it was a bad idea so I went for the white lie. You have to understand that I am the worst at white lies. I HATE lying especially when I am not prepared. I just get confused. So I said :

"Sort of"

Fortunately he didn’t ask me what "sort of studying in photography" meant because I am still wondering myself!
