i'm megan. i like to be different. my name, ibettershakethis, comes from high school musical ;]
advice
Hey. Well, I'm 13/f and I go to middle school, 7th grade. I know, please believe me, that labels are the stupidest thing on the Earth, but I have to use them just for this particular question.
Okay, well, I used to be 'prep' but now I find myself likeing things the 'emo's' were and at my dad's house, in his neighborhood, I hang out with the 'emo' people. I really like all the things they do, like, the eye makeup, the styles[kind of], and stuff like that.
Problem is, if I just, one day 'become' 'emo' then everyone will call me a poser. What do I do?
And, I have blonde hair and blue eyes, and I love cheerleading. I know, that's kind of 'preppy' but I like being 'emo' more than being 'prep'.
okay this is exactly what i just went through last year. i was on dance team and i wanted to hang out with the more emo people and all of my friends were preppy. you need to find your own way to kind of mix them together. for me, the transition from Prep to Emo is another stereotype called Scene.
(heres a site if you don't know what it means http://www.dobi.nu/yourscenesucks/scenesters.htm)
theres something on there called "williamsburg hipster". that was my transition from prep to emo. i basically wore brighter colors and even my prep friends started liking my clothes. one of my signature things is to wear a colored tee with a spaghetti strap top over it. once you take it in stages, you pretty much get the hang of it. your prep friends will still talk to you because you're a bit like your preps and a bit like your emos. basically you satisfy everyone and its a happily ever after =) i hope i helped!
