ok, so i've been thinking about the jonas brothers a lot. unfortunately. i really hate thinking about them, but i honestly like them a lot. not particularly their music, but they're really cute (especially joe), and more specifically, i truly admire their attitude. i love how they wear the purity rings and are devoted to God and their family. i just get so annoyed by the way that teens are habitually portrayed in tv, books and movies. i admit, there are a lot of bad teens out there, and the number is prolly still increasing. even so...i mean, can't something, somewhere portray at least some teens in a good light? i mean, there IS such a thing as a good teen. i'm a virgin, don't do drugs, drink, and i rarely ever cuss. is this SO unusual that the phrase "good teen" is now an oxymoron? that really angers me. i mean, even if they begin to portray a teen in a good light, there's always something wrong with them. i mean, i'm a normal teen. i'm crazy, odd, and i struggle with the same thoughts and temptations. is it so unusual for people to simply say "no"? i mean, honestly. and it's not even that i'm that good of a kid. i get above average grades, but sometimes, not so great. i swear, i rebel, i say mean things about people, i gossip, i think bad thoughts, etc. i'm not a model teen, but who is? however, is it that difficult for adults to portray some teens in a decent light? why is it that the disney channel is one of the only channels that shows good teens? even so, they shows are awful, and aimed at pre-teens. to make everything even better, these teen stars often don't have the bestest life ever, and the media feeds off of that. so, that's why i like the jonas brothers so much. i mean, obviously, they've made their mistakes, and they have had plenty of girlfriends (but is that really a bad thing?)...but, i mean, at least they try. at least they're making an attempt to be the best gents they can be. i mean, they're not so bad as the rest of us, and they have about a million more temptations. i mean, i feel bad for them.
