You don't got a metal-head category in there man. It don't matter I'm a little bit of everything. A lot of oldschool punk/metal all rolled into one. And can't forget about being a computer geek at heart.

I'm in the "Apathetic" category.

I play football. My life in a way revolves around it. Season is over so now I lift weights everyday instead of going to practice. Benefits? I get a ton...hell, I was walking around last night at around midnight and this guy pulled over and said "you play football?" I go "yeah" and then he asked if I wanted a ride. Turned out to be a Varsity player and I said no because I just felt like walking and didn't really know where I was going anyway.

But yeah anyway, I don't think I would classify as a "jock". I don't really hang out with all the other players too much...but I do at some points, but I really hang out with everybody.

I'm just me.

Before I go out on the limb and answer this, what context are you asking? Clothing, Personality, or a mixture of both? For me it would depend on which area you were asking!!

I hang out with the people that I like. I steer clear of those who I don't. I can get along with just about anybody, but I am not "popular". I have friends who could be considered nerds, goths, preps, punks, drama kids, etc. I have friends who can't really be categorized. I think it's foolish to limit yourself to a single group of people to associate with. Everybody has some common ground. My best friend and I are at totally opposite ends of the political spectrum. You would not, in a million years, guess that we would get along. We wound up sitting next to each other on a bus one day, and got into a conversation, only to discover that we have very similar senses of humor. Because of that, we wound up hanging out more, and discovered all the other things we had in common. Only the two of us know how similar we are, despite being totally different from an outside perspective.

If I had never spoken to him simply because he was a goth (he was my first friend who was), it would have been my loss. I wouldn't have nearly as many friends as I have today, because I got to know many of them through him (none of them goth, he has the same mentality as I do).

I've never understood why anyone would feel the need to fit into a certain social group.

Ok, so if I go by a "mixture" then I would have to say I am also a "mixture" of categories. Goth, Punk, Normal (jeans and a t-shirt normal i mean!), and every now and again preppy.

Clothing: When I get up in the morning to get dressed, 70 to 80% of my clothes are black. Not because I WANTED to be gothic, but because black matches everything, and because it is my second favorite color. So I wear alot of black - goth.
I also have my big boots (they add 6.5 inches to my height) that I wear with some crazy, unmatched outfits. Normally when I want to go out and hang with my friends we go to a place called "Franks House of Rock" which is like a consert hall and a hang out place for teenagers to go on the weekends instead of parties. The play christian music and it's alot of fun. Most of the people that go there are "punks" or "skateboarders" or a combination of both. When I go out with Jason (my fiance) or family I normally wear jeans and a t-shirt.
Then I go to church twice a week (Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings) and I wear "Preppy" clothes to church. Mostly dresses. I am also in a professional business fraturnity at Drake so I have to dress "professionally" when I have meetings.

Personality: I think that I have a fun personality. I enjoy hanging out with anyone and everyone, so the type of people I hang around is very diverse. If you "categorized" me by the type of people I hang out with then you would have alot of troubles narrowing it down to ten or twenty categories!

So when you mix clothing and personality categories together when it concerns me then I am just an extremely odd mixture of alot of different categories!

I though Franks was shut down because of a problem on their "reopening concert"

I guess the firemarshall was really unhappy about them letting WAY too many ppl in there at once and shut them down till they could bring the place up to code? I've been watching www.itickets.com and there hasn't been a listing to franks in a while.
But hey, that was a sweet concert!!! Reliant K, Philmore bleach and Holland. I even got to rescue a little girl that night....makes me feel special!

Oh yeah, I'm a cross between punk and prep. More prep then punk but...
See society is intolerant to punkish stuff, piercings, tatoos, odd clothes that sorta stuff. Pluw I'm freaking 23 I need to be presentable for my jobs, so ppl at church. That sorta stuff, so the punk thing doesn't fly. Heck I even wear suits all he time. But if you look at my likes and dislikes, I've got some punk in me. A few piercings, my choise of music and even some clothes. But punk isn't what is used to be so my definition is going to catch some flak anyway... but I don't care
