Stacy’s Goth Experience II: The Making of Things Dark, Yet Bright.

I have a friend, who says she’s Goth.  I told her, she couldn’t be, because she always wears bright clothes, and has an upbeat personality.  She assures me she is.   So I began to take a look at Goth, and wondered what was attractive about it.  I also wondered how I fit into this.  We’re talking about me; my clothes are so colorful and patterned

We live in world that is so focused on 'labeling' or 'categorizing' everyone. I guess some people would label me as Goth too. I read Anne Rice and Lovecraft and I'm writing a novel about vampires. I also wear 'Emily the Strange' t-shirts and am a fan of friendsoffoamy.com.

However, these people don't see me on the days that I'm wearing a football jersey and rooting for the Eagles.

Oh yeah and my favorite jersey? It's a light pink version of the Eagles's jersey because I'm a girly-girl too.

If people want to label me the closest they could come I guess would be a Girly, Tomboy, Gothic Sportsfan. Kinda long.

I don't think most labels can accurately describe or contain most people. Many people I know are too dynamic for one, catch-all label.

Life should be about celebrating our differences more than it is to try to conform.

Thanks for posting, BTW.
