For one, im glad you had the courage to do that!!! NOT many people are strong enough to even try, so don't feel bad in any way. BUT i have to agree, maybe its a bit young, even if you are mature enough to handle rude comments and deal with people who are stupid and unopen-minded (is that a word?) Perhaps you should wait, cuz in high school there is many different types of dress, and then they could actually see what emo is. BUt remember, the chance could pass you by if you wait too long, like if you don't want to wear it if you got to college/university/workplace, so remember to enjoy your youth and make the best of it cuz you may never get another chance!!!
