10 Steps For Becoming NON-EMO ( Copied )


Step 1:
Brighten up! Add some colour to your wardrobe-- and be sure to remove anything morbid! Take away wrist bands, spiked belts, and slip-on Vans.


Step 2:
Put down the razor! (if you're THAT kind of emo)


Step 3:
Let's talk about the hair. Push it out of your face -- that means cutting your bangs if necessary. Dye over your coon tails and take out those old black extensions with the dutty old glue. There are plenty of other hairstyles out there, look around for new inspiration!


Step 4:
We all know the stereotype of emos being camera whores; if you're a camera whore emo, it's time to let that go! All pictures taken from above you with the hair covering one eye HAVE to be removed. Take all "emo" pics off your facebook/myspace.


Step 5:
Lose the skinny jeans. Their definetly too far gone for a recovering emo. But, if you simply can't part with them, loosen them just a little. It's WAY to hard to run from emo haters in tight ass pants. I'm a girl, I know.


Step 6:
If your Ipod is filled to the rim with emo music, it's definetly time to let those go. A few songs here and there for when you're having a bad day is normal, but hearing why you hate the world and yourself in every song is going to severly slow the process!


Step 7:
Remove all "i'm emo and proud" facebook groups. We all know you're emo and proud, there's a lot of groups dedicated to it! Take them all away as if a way of finalizing your liberation from emo.


Step 8:
Au naturel is the way to go for non-emos! Take off the eyeliner, guys! And ladies, just lessen it. A small black line along the top and bottom lashes is all you need!


Step 9:
Don't just talk to the kids with the eyebrow peircings and black hoodies. Look around! There's a wide variety of people and styles out there, and their all just as friendly and inviting as emo kids. Don't ditch your emo friends (cuz that would be a tad too "Avril Lavigne Sk8er Boy" to be taken seriously), just incorporate different styles into your circle of friends!


Step 10:
Smile! Now that we all know that you're not emo, it's time to take a nicer view on the world, and there's no better way to show it then a smile!


Congratulations! You have now followed these steps, and you are no longer emo. Venture out into the sunshine and pick some daisies, listen to some cheerful music, or just go and sit quietly while you think about the changes you've made! Feel proud, non-emo. Feel proud :)
