when you were young....or younger :P Mar 16 2010, 08:04 AM

just popped into my mind and thought it might be a good topic. when you were young, did you know about emo and other stereotypes? how did you act before you found out? when i say young, i mean YOUNG for me, i remember very clearly when i was in year 1 (so around....6ish years old) i remember asking my mum constantly to grow out my hair and keep saying i want to colour my hair rainbow colours haha i didnt know wut was punk/emo/scene/goth at that age and have never seen any...(cuz theres none in hong kong) i think i acted very similar back then and now xD still me being crazy, always spazztic and doing everything. now that im grown up....abit...i can still see myself as the same younger me haha......*pictures mini Tom with blue hair....* hehe....

Yeah never really knew the word emo before it came mainstream.. people only started to get sterotyped here in primary 7.. so about 10/11 years old.. before that they would just be "weird people" hah.

where i'm from, noone knew emo until simple plan's song perfect was release, then all of a sudden there was this word everybody started using, i was like wtf is emo? everyone thought of it as a bad thing to be. but slowly it got more and more of a following, but still back in that town, there is only a very small comunity of emos, including me, but i left.

Oh wow YOUNG young...? I honestly can't remember. I always wore what my mom bought me and I never really saw any emo/goth/punk people around. When I saw my first emo guy in 8th grade, thats what influenced me to change. ;D

when i was younger no one in my class new about emo's or any such thing so of course i had no clue wtf a emo was. grade like 6 or 7 i think is when i learned bout emo. late grade 8 is when i satrted dressing the emo fasion cos i thought is was awsome, and then when i really really understood what the word emo ment i found out i've been 'emo' my whole life ever since i were just a wee little thing, lmao.

well i moved alot when i was younger but i never really fit in till i moved to where i am now and in 6 and part of 7th grade i was a major tomboy still kinda am but its was so bad that i would get into fights with the "big guys" of the school and im like really short and tiny and no one would think it was weird that i was fighting with them. like all my clothes came from the guy section at the store. i would ride 4 wheeler and play in the mud and wrestle and stuff but now i have met my more femine side but i still like 4wheelers and snowmoblies!
