Isobel Bellamy people can only see your floating head in the dark... Reminds me of this picture my my sort-of-boyfriend where he's all in black playing guitar, and from a certain angle (when looking at it on the computer) he looks like a floating head, over floating arms playing the guitar. It looks cool!

-Whenever people see slits on your arms it takes you twenty minutes to get it through thier heads that you have a cat, and sometimes cats are tempermental (hence, the scratch marks).
-Young children have mistaken you for at least one of the following: A pirate, a vampire, a zombie, a corpse, a princess.
-All of the local thrift stores and consingment shops know you.
-You consider wearing a short, lacy skirt and satin corset 'dressing down'.
-You can often be found in graveyards, leaving flowers on the graves of people you don't even know.
-You feel more alive at night than you do during the day.
-You're upset because the local bookstore closes at 10pm.
-You've watched a movie just because you thought the costumes were amazing.
-You have trouble finding a bra, panties, and matching socks in the morning, because everything in your bearu happens to be black.

Dragonfire_Goddess You go out in the sun for 5 minutes and come back with bright red skin. You know that there's more than one shade of black, and you know which ones look good together. The owners of local antique/book shops know you on a first name basis. The owners and employees of local thrift shops know you, and sometimes even let you know when something good comes in. People ask you why you're all "dressed up" or if you're in a play. Your face powder is the palest you can find, and is still slightly darker than your skin. You are slightly frightened by malls and people who frequent them. You get a boost of energy as the sun goes down. When told to wear 'comfortable shoes' you wear your 2 inch heels, as opposed to your 6 inchers. People don't understand half the words/terms you use. You have a strange fondness for weapons and chains that you can't explain. Your 'short' coat is the knee-length one. You helped bake those cookies and muffins the dark side is always bragging about. (Love that one) And this is why I love you. xd

Especially the cat one, and there's a funny story behind that.

I'm not sure if black silk would go with black velvet.
I would need a demonstration.
I have many many black articles of clothing. I think it looks best on me.

Sdara gothgirl678 when: u open ur closet and theres only black clothes when u open ur make up box and it's full of the whitest face powder u can find u don't where pink....... ...I have a pink dress. You'd know I'm goth to see me in it. My prom dress was pink ^_^ It wasn't gothic at all, it was very princess/ballerina-ish. You know, I actually still really like it now that I think about it. Sometimes I wish I could get a new one for this year, but I kinda like the one I have, even if it isn't "goth."

You know you're goth when you go to a school dance, maybe dressed up a little more than usual, and the next morning your mom asks "Was anyone else wearing a costume?"

Anyways... I have a few more things to add.
-When the term 'gothic literature' comes up in your English class, half of the class looks at you.
-You practically teach the class that day.
-You've written a five-page paper on Edgar Allen Poe (or another misc. author) without any refrence materieal... and recieved an A+ on it.
-Even if your poetry/other writings are awful, they utilize a vast vocabulary, ranging from obscure old-English words (REALLY obscure ones... such as scurryfunge or ketchcraft...), as well as many greek/latin-based words.
-You actually know the definitions of the obscure words you use.
I just thought I'd add those, seeing as today in my English class we were discussing romanticism and gothic literature.
I have done everything on that list... =P
