Ok this is from yesterday. Errrrr.....cross blogging!

I spent most of the day sitting by the window in my bedroom reading. I think I've found a new escape in books. I never use to like to read much but I find it's so easy to get lost in a good story now. It takes my mind off of every thing else.
I've been asked a few times why I call myself Goth or what it means? Goth at its simplest, is a subculture. A group of people who feel comfortable within each others company. (a lot like being transgender) There is no specific thing that defines what you need to do or be to fit into the goth scene (black clothes). People in the goth scene all have different musical tastes, follow different religions, have different occupations, hobbies, and fashion sense.
Goths are free thinkers, people who do not accept the moral rules of society because they're told "this is just how it is" or 'This is what God says!'. Rather goths tend to listen to what you have to say, and make up their own mind. This kind of free thinking and rejection of dogma earns mostly rejection in today's society.
What drew me in? I've always been interested in the darker side of things, not evil but beautiful and mysterious. I've always loved rainy days and gray skies. If I walked into a room full of people and everyone was getting alone good, talking, laughing and there was one person sitting alone in the back of the room that is the person I would notice first, I am attracted to those people who seem to be alone. I don't know why! Maybe because I'm outcast like they are.
OK well, it's late and I have a couple more things to do before I go to bed so I'll talk to you all latter. Bye!

I like the way you think - I am the same way. If there is something that others neglect, like old broken toys or junk yards, I'm all over it. I just love being able to make my own way in life and not go with the flow.
