type='text'>Finally a teenager</title><content type='html'>I remember when I was a little girl I always dreamed of being a teenager&lt;br /&gt;I guess my 6 year old vision of a teenager wasn't exactly correct&lt;br /&gt;When you become a teenager you are naturally given responsibilities&lt;br /&gt;You have to go to school ,go to practice,do your homework, and finish your chores in just one day&lt;br /&gt;You are lucky if you get to see fifteen minutes of television&lt;br /&gt;And yes your little girl dream of having a cell phone and "cool" clothes does come true&lt;br /&gt;But, you miss being 6 when you can get dirty and be silly and that's normal&lt;br /&gt;You don't have all the drama and craziness life is just fun&lt;br /&gt;You don't need to worry about next weeks finals or the championship game&lt;br /&gt;You just need to worry about which doll to play with next&lt;br /&gt;So I guess you can say when your a teenager you have more freedom and cool things&lt;br /&gt;But, its not all fun and games&lt;br /&gt;Your leaving your childhood and preparing for adulthood with taxes and a job&lt;br /&gt;But, don't worry you still get a little fun&lt;br /&gt;So to all those little girls out there who dream of being a teenager&lt;br /&gt;Don't waste your time thinking about the future&lt;br /&gt;Play with your dolls and enjoy today because you wont get it back.&lt;div
