uhh... well, you could go to www.youtube.com and do a search for "must be emo", and watch that ...'music video' for ideas..
at the very least, it will give you a good idea of what it means to be emo
you don't jump at concerts...
you play old school nintendo (which isn't emo for me, i grew up with that!)
you wear your sister's jeans...
so on and so forth

DON'T LISTEN TO ANYONE.
That's retarded. You're and 11 yr old and you wanna be emo?
I was emo for a time, it's stupid.
All you really do is act melodramatic/histrionic, feign/exaggerate depression and draw sympathy by cutting and injuring yourself.
Adults might not understand, but I'm 14, so I know what you're thinking.
Trust me, it's not your time.
If you don't want your parents to go nuts, you can space out listening to Linkin Park or Evanescence but don't go cutting yourself, getting punked out nose-rings, and cranking up Slipknot.
And most importantly, don't be a wannabe. AEAP? Never heared of that acronym and I was emo. There's such things as emo people who really need therapy and there's something else called wannabes who act emo and punk but are just trying to look cool. You don't want that.
The more emo you are, the more your parents will think you'll need professional help. And I'm probably only two grades more than you, so trust me, we're not that far apart.
Screw this emo crap, go learn to play piano. Emo, but decent people can play piano to let their feelings out. Learn to do something.
Get involved in things you like, sports or reasonable interests. Don't just go and be emo because your friends are or w/e.
Believe me, it's stupid/retarded/pointless.

wear black from head to toe, try getting those silver necklaces that some guys wear and get clip on earings, without your parents consult, and putting them on whenever they're not around. try getting 2 magnets abt the size of a regular stud and sticking them on your ears. don't know what to do abt the rubbing though, stick with a semi strong magnet.
get black leather boots, leather jacket, thick leather bands and wear them to school. if you've got a uniform that you HAVE to wear with like no exceptions then try wearing leather jewelery under your shirt where nobody can see, don't make them too tight or it might choke u.
if you've got a uniform that u don't have to wear ALL of it then try mixing pieces of it with typical emo clothes. ask ur parents for christmas/birthday money or money for mowing the lawn and try getting a few typical emo things. good luck with your quest! when your older you might try getting your ears pierced multiple times in one or both ears, but you'll have to wait for tht.

Be yourself.
Start your own genre.
Why follow the pack at 11? or at 18? or at 30?

Why would anyone want to be emo?
I mean, losers are losers. And emo people are people trying to be losers.

Emo are goths who cut their wrist. Why would you want to be like that? If you mean you wanna look like them then I think you might wanna go goth instead.
