I'm not QUITE sure if anybody realized this, but the word "emo" went from underground lingo to household bantor in the matter of 5 years, not even. Not to say that emo "sold-out" or anything like that, I don't really believe in that idea. I just got kind of nostalgic today at work while reading a Teen People when I noticed that they described a certain shirt "emo". So not only is it a music, it's a fashion. This means that it is a lifestyle. I guess IM emo then, i dont mind. hey, at least people know what to call me now. Emo. huh.
I remeber when I was talking about music with this senior when I was a Jr. and she mensioned the elusive "emo". I asked what it was and she responded, fully annoyed, with a definition that included the words "emotional", "punk", and "weezer". Weezer, I knew. Although, they LOOKED more emo than they sounded. So she gave me the name of the current Taking Back Sunday album, patted me on the head, and sent me on my way.
