Looking through the posts on this blog, I realized that I had already done those little quiz things on this journal. So I’m doing one again this year. Here goes…
| You Are 28% Emo |
![]() You’re definitely not emo, but you do understand emo people a little. You are introspective, but not to the point of driving yourself crazy. |
Well, this something I already know. I think if I had taken this test at a much younger age, I may actually qualify for the label.
On another slightly related note, I just picked up A Checkered Past: The 2Tone Collection a compilation of the music I listened to back in high school. At the time, I wore the Doc Martens and the black jeans; I had a plaid shirt and an olive green bomber jacket; My hair was cut real short (though not shaved, too much drama if I went that far haha). When I was in uniform, I would be in a shirt and tie and brogues. I stopped short of the hat (mainly because I couldn’t find a decent Trilby in the vintage shops on Spadina, hehehe)
We were the ones writing the school paper, and we were the angry, noisy, anti-Establishment voice. And we were also on the Honour Society and the Student Council. But mostly we would tap kegs, slamdance at school parties, and occasionally pick fights with the ginos for the prime spots in the parking lot.
I wonder at times if we’ve all sold out, if Shawn and Dylan are slaving away in an office right now, listening to a compilation album…
Because I may doing this now. But I haven’t sold out to anyone or anything. This is my life, and I got exclusive rights to how it goes. Non Serviam, baby.
