life of a teen
great expectations from people around you. get good grades,be athletic&have many friends.never leave the house without make-up on or else people will think you're ugly.don't cry in front people or else you'll be considered weak.if you don't have a boyfriend then you're a loser.backstabbing friends is the "in" thing these days.can't fit into a pair of s skinny jeans?better start working out or else you'll be considered fat.
can't seem to do anything right in your parents eyes? you work so hard to achieve that "A" but all you got was a "B"? that's not good enough. you're drug-free you say?not in you're parents eyes you are.oh you like that short dress in blue?nope don't even think about it.do you have guy friends that wanna come over?don't even bother.
is this what you wanted to grow up so fast for?to be accused for things that you never even do? to never be good enough for people? in that case,take me back to my childhood,where the only thing i had to worry about scraped knees& missing my favorite disney show. if only.
