Seriouslly! Who really goes to the bookstore, gets a copy of "the red badge of courage" and reads anymore. I still do! The amount of people who go to the bookstore for something besides anime is dwindling...Anime is cool but try reading something else as well for a change.
While I have a topic started here, I would like to ask how many goths you know/meet that you would consider intelligent/"geeky" (read books, know about history, literature, science, don't hate school...) It seems like a lot of people these days just headbang to some metal band, wear black, and say they're goth. No. I'm sorry. Those qualities alone can't make you goth. Or at least "true goth". They should read up about goth a bit more.
Also, who here plays an instument? What do you play, for how long, and do you wright your own music?

i read^^ and if i may, i must reccomend some awaesome books to you all^^
ANYTHING by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes (for you non-readers, they're short, but good)
The Dark Elf Trilogy, Icewind Dale trilogy, and any other books you can find about Drizzt Do'Urden, the Drow, such as The Legacy, and all by an amazing author named R. A. Salvatore. if you're interested in DnD, but don't know how to get started or what you want to be, and can't afford the Player's Handbook, read these and anything else in the Forgotten Realms Serieses.
Of course, Steven King, the god of horror
and i just happened to stumble upon a book called Sweetblood(don't remember the author) it's sort of about vampires. this girl with diabetes believes that before a "cure" was found for it, people with diabetes could have been mistaken for vampires. then she meets a real vampire. check it out.
as for music, i'm more of a vocalist and i have to write my own music, because i have a "unique" voice(and by that, i mean i suck at anything but my own work) i somewhat play guitar, but can't get the hang of it. i've had it for 2 years, but haven't played it much. i know part of an original song by my b/f
