I knew from very early on, from what I suppose you could call 'elder goths', that I was a 'babybat', and thus had a lot to learn.
Most of the bad babybat habits were nipped in the bud. Things like questionable fashion sense and thinking-Marilyn-Manson-was-goth were corrected before I had a chance to step outside and embarass myself with them, and for that I am thankful.
However before venturing into the land of goth I considered myself a punk... and I wasn't quite so successful with that one. Lets just say there were a lot of X's drawn on my 12-year-old hands before I figured that one out, haha.
