the trouble with growing up
is that you've had so many different impressions of life as a kid. you've seen lizzie mcguire, which leads you to think that middle school is going to revolve around the hot blonde-haired guy and the only hardships are when the popular girl is your partner for a science project; there are the teen magazines that lead you to think that zac efron's new haircut is a more pressing issue that the environment or the economy; the infatuations and crushes that impact your life - distract you from your grades, your friends, your family, all the things that really matter. and yet, all we want is
to grow up.
