low profile

I tried to be low profile at work.
Not be very well-known.
Not know very well.
But it was very very hard.
So I gave up, and tried in school.

But now it's becoming increasingly hard to be low profile.
How to, when you have a debate and various presentations?

And sometimes I have to rein it in.
The impulse to make small talk
To charm the girl beside me.
Or scare her off.
It's like controlling your fart.
Sometimes it works.
Sometimes it backfires.

And so now I'm trying to find the balance.
To unleash all this bottled-upp chattiness
And friendliness and warmth and concern during work,
And to be cold and composed and quiet in school.

This is going to be hard.
