World Goth Day

I'm going to be at work all day Saturday so that means I'll be in whites. Not all that gothy. Perhaps if I have any energy left when I get home I'll get dressed up in all of my finery and go out for a bit . . .

There's a tattoo festival this weekend, and we plan to go on Saturday. It's just co-incidence though, I don't think it has anything to do with it being World Goth Day.

I do plan to wear my Mirror of the Soul pendant though, since it was at this festival last year, that I discovered a local store that carries AG items. I think they'll have a booth there again this year.

hmmm... Always when I see this topic I have to scratch my head and wonder if this World Goth Day \"hype\" will return next year or did everyone conclude it was a fiasco with nobody being interested in it...

You still have time to vote for this years World Goth Day awards: www.worldgothday.com/awards.shtml

From what I can see of the nominees, they are somewhat the same as last years, so I don't think the results will be much different.

May 22nd is this Sunday, so it's nice timing if you want to do something special on the day.

Anyone have any plans?

I'll be stuck in a coach for most of my day, so I won't be doing anything else then being the (probably) only goth on the coach. lol :woohoo:

Bring make-up and work some super-goth wonders on whoever else is on the coach (whilst they're sleeping, if necessary). :silly: Haha. That'd liven my day.

No real plans for me.. :S Just revision..Too much revision to really think about much else..

I'll vote. I find the notion that there is a World Goth Day amusing in the sense of 'what will they come up with next?'. Sunday is going to be a laborious day spent packing and moving most of my things into storage. :S
