Do I sound emo?

Question

Do I sound emo? I just turned 15, and here is something pasted from one of my many xanga posts:

Happiness is the concealer that covers the darkness of my shredded life.

So things are getting creepy. I'm glad I've secretly made this my own private little journal that only my closest of friends can see. (that's from xanga so you can kindly discount that) Judging from the title, you're probably thinking I've turned emo on you and that I now spend my days locked away in my room writing dark poetry and english papers on the legalization of marijuana; blasting the radio speakers with screamo music. But that would be pushing it. I am starting to write poetry again, though. Not all depressing and "woe is me" like most poems written by deranged teenagers are. I prefer more possitive and happy things. (Like bunnies. :] And cuppin' cakes :])

(there's more I'm about to add)

Do you want to sound emo? To me, no, you don't sound emo. You just sound like you're going through normal teenager stuff.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Literally, yes. Like the stereotype, no. The difference is that you're not afraid to openly display your emotions, which is where the original "Emo" label came from, but you're not the type who who is totally obsessed with sitting in a corner and staring at your fingernails, thinking about sadness.

Answer 6

I believe you mean "puberty."

Answer 7

You are a chick, you're 15 and barring a full frontal lobotomy, you are emo too.

Don't be sad, it goes with the territory.
