“Oh, yeah.”
How would you say your style differs here at art school versus at home?

Are you going home for the holidays?
“Yes, heading home for Hanukah.”
Does the way you dress different here versus at home?
“Right now, these are just comfortable clothes. Yes, though – I definitely dress differently here than at home!
