How to be Scene (thank you Linzy)

First and foremost, your AIM/MSN/any other instant messenger screen name should be some rad song title and/or lyric. Remember, the more x's you have in it, the more scene you are.

Next, go buy yourself some girl's jeans. Face it, the tighter your jeans are, the more scene you will be, and the more the hardcore kids will hate you for it. Try on a pair of jeans and find that you're a perfect woman's 8? Buy a woman's 6 and suck it in.

After you buy your jeans, go and buy every single band t-shirt. Even if you've never listened to the band, or worse, never heard of them either. [Being scene, you're supposed to know every single band in the scene. Duh.] If people ask you about them, just say you like the "old stuff" and no one will ever know that you actually hate Norma Jean. Never buy anything larger than a Youth Medium. EVER.

Dont forget to pick up a white leather belt on your way out!

So, now you're dressed pretty scene, but how's your hair? Is it dyed black? Maybe with some bleach-blonde streaks? Does your fringe [bangs] cover one of your eyes? If you answered no to any of these, shut up, grab a pair of scissors, and chop away. Never go and get your hair done, ALWAYS do it yourself.

Good job. Now your hair is the sex. But, your look wont get you anywhere if you dont know how to dance. And by dance, I mean beat the crap out of people. First of all, you need to make sure you claim your space in the pit. As the band starts, push everyone back and scream something obscene. Then you need to start to pace the pit just so everyone knows that you can move in your pants. Pacing the pit involves doing a half walk-half skip across the room, while looking downwards and shaking your head. But dont mess up your hair.
Then, when the time is right [trust me, you'll know when] throw your arm back and hopefully, you'll hit someone in the face.
5 scene points if his nose bleeds.
Begin two-stepping. If you dont know how to two-step, you might as well leave and go practice in your living room in front of a mirror until you get it. Add some sweet floor-punches and a couple spin-kicks into the crowd, and you're set. Notice how I didnt mention the windmill. It's because that everyone knows that everyone is able to do the windmill. Too bad.
Now for the pile up! As everyone runs up to the stage, make sure you go last so you can be that cool kid on top of the pile. If you dont know the words to the song, fake it, and hope that its just screaming.
Your job is done.
Stand in the middle of the floor, with your arms crossed and survey the scene.
Good job, scene. Good job.

So you're offically labeled an ass now that you've given a couple of people black eyes. That's ok, that's the point.

Now that you're back home, go straight for your computer and immediately check your myspace. Get really pissed off when you dont have any friend requests, and get even more pissed off when no one has left you a comment in the 6 hours you werent home. Figure its because you havent updated your pictures in a couple of weeks and go take some more. Take about 80, but use the 2 most flattering ones. Remember, the more skin you show, or if you're sitting on the toilet, the more comments you will get.

Go outside and have a cig break and redraw the black X's on your hands. Afterall, you ARE straightedge. Everyone KNOWS cigs dont count!

Look up at the stars, sigh, and thank god that you're not emo.
Even though you really are.

This is why

This is exactly why I get annoyed at my mom so easily: she started yelling at me for something so insignificant, and it's like why waste the breath? Just let it go and worry about things that are more pressing. Jeezuz.

Consider this my surrender

Consider this my surrender. I give up on life. This ISN'T a suicide note, because honestly, life is better than the other. I give up on trying to make people happy. I give up really trying to make friends with people I don't like. I give up on trying to laugh at things that are not hilarious. I give up trying to laugh with people who laugh at me. I give up.

Please don't try. If you really do care, you'll tell me. If you don't, consider this the end of our friendship.

That is all.

So today,

My new bff is one I never would've expected.
Aaron.
Anyway, I was talking to him today, and he was being all supportive of my emo rantings.
Here's some of the stuff I said:

it's just so hard to b urself in a room full of sames

if everyone was just themselves, we'd be a little less plastic

and all the girls in our grade are such cutouts

nobody is actually real

everybody has such a facade on

i try to be my weird, nerdy, self but it's hard

That is all.

I've given up on THAT idea.

So, basically, I've given up on THAT idea of doing what I was doing. So here's another list.

4.PlayStation (NINTENDO FOREVER)

9.Digital TV. What's wrong with analog? xD
10.Cable
11.Sprint
12.Viruses.
13.Windowswindowswindows
14.The joys of downloading things that take 3 hours to download

7. Telemarketers
8. Cab drivers
9. Anyone that should be in jail
10. People who try to convert you to their religion

12. Posers
13. Ax murderers
14. People that hate your favorite (or one of your favorite) band(s) for unspecified reasons
15. Those people that have to do anything to make you feel inadequate in any way, shape, or form.
16. People that say you're a poser


That is all.

These past times

So, this weekend, a lot of crap happened that wasn't that great. Someone called me an emo poser. The LAST thing I ever want to be called is an emo poser (no offense to emo kids- they are awesome). Honesly, I'd rather be emo than an emo poser, which is saying a lot. So here's my least favorite things list.
1. Posers (and people who call people posers because obviously they are posers too, am i correct in this thinking?)
2. Copycats. (I know, when was THAT expression last used?)
3. People on YouTube who are too stupid not to watch videos they won't like. Therefore, they hatecomment. Ew. Ewwewwewwewwewwewweww.
4. Clean and Clear
5. LICE.
6. Windows
7. People who can't say something without saying something pleasant (D. Patterson for you Lincolnites)
8. Sprint
9. Models who make everyone else feel bad for being anorexic/bulimic
10. People who compare everything and anything to Twilight (I know, we love the books, GET OVER IT)
There's more, but they have more to do with certain people *coughcough*a. bohnson for you lincolnites*coughcough* and certain types of people(see above and there's more to come)
So I'll leave it at that.
