I remember stating once that Bohemianism usually isn't discovered until adulthood. However, the number of adolescents with Bohemian characteristics is growing, so I feel it would be best to shed some light on them.
You know you are a Bohemian teen when....
- Your room contains a bunch of figurines from Asian religions.
- You get excited when there's a "10 sticks for $1" incense sale.
- You own at least one Egyptian-themed wardrobe item.
- Kimonos are not just a fashion statement; they are a way of life.
- Same for Birkenstocks.
- At least half of your wardrobe originated in a thrift store.
- You dislike going to the mall because you can hardly find anything there.
- The bumper of your car says something like "Coexist" or "Good Vibrations".
- The books you own are well-worn and loved.
- You are running out of room for your art supplies.
- You would rather pick flowers to put in your hair than buy the fake flower headbands that all the Hipster girls are wearing.
- You aren't attached to your phone 24/7.
- At least five items in your room have a celestial or Earth-centered theme.
- You bathroom sink has paintbrushes in it.
- You stay up late planning trips to India and Tibet.
- When you mention "spirulina" and "chlorella" tablets, people look at you weird.
- You think dreadlocks are a fashionable and attainable hairstyle.
- You prefer green tea over Starbucks any day.
- You have philosophical conversations about perception that last for hours.
- You are generally unfazed by most tattoos and piercings.
- You turn heads when you show up to school wearing tye-dye.
- You wanted to start a meditation club at your high school.
- Yoga was the highlight of gym class.
- At least 5 of your top 10 movies are foreign.
- Your friends refer to you as their "Hippie" friend.
- You have considered attending Naropa University. (Check it out here. Looks awesome!)
- Your locker has a dreamcatcher or incense burner in it.
- You dismiss the current "Boho" trends as being manufactured and fake.
- Your personal music playlist is a complete 180 from that of anyone else your age.
- Adults refer to you as a "free spirit" or even "wild child".
