What Teenagers we are


i feel like i'm such a classic teenager
just another teenage girl
and i want to do something that others dont do
like as lame as this sounds
i think i would feel better
if i had some sort of super top secret spy like mission O.o that i had something other to do
than u know the general teenage stuff that makes life seem so lame and like i'm so pathetic
just like when u sit here
doing your nails
while chatting on AIM and updating your facebook or blog
and talking on the phone about the party you are going to tomorrow with your riends on a threeway
and what you are going to wear
and everything
while i know that there are bigger and more important things in life
like the government could be meeting with alien forces from outerspace discussing a canceled operation
or discussing the future of our planet
while i am just sitting here helpless pathetic and unsuspecting while other major things that im clueless about are going on
so it makes me feel so stupid
i feel dissapointed
because of a reason i can't explain
its one of those things
where let's say you think something is so awesome
or you think you are so unique and special because of your interests and how your life is turning out
but then you get on the internet
and lets say you watch a video by a band you like
and then you read the comments that say things like
"OH MY GOD I LOOOOOOOOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH THIS BAND ROCKS!"
and you dont feel so unique anymore because now you know other people like it too and feel the same way
so you are just like others
and then like you wear a shirt you really like
and come to school
and see a whole different person with a whole different life
that you dont even know
is wearing the same shirt
hanging out with their friends and everything and experiencing things you experience
and you dont feel so unique anymore
you know you have your own thoughts and feelings yet that doesnt make you so special
there are millions of people like you out there so it feels like you dont count
and so life doesnt seem all that exciting anymore

That was a really really good post!! There are TONS of stereotypes for teenagers. Just...like, without even trying, I always do something so expected of a 13 year old. It gets annoying. I almost don't like being a teenager because of that. Man, I totally agree with you on that last part. That was like poetry. You ever write poetry? I bet you're good at it. It's just so...endless, trying to be unique, trying to matter, to make something of yourself. But you don't necessarily need to do that. If you're content, happy, who needs 6 billion other people giving you attention?
