Am I Still Into the 'Teen' Scene?

Now when I say 'teen scene' I mean like the Disney Channel or Nickelodeon shows. Not those shows on networks like the CW that are supposedly 'teen' shows, but are really for a more mature crowd. For example Supernatural or Gossip Girl, which of course I love both. More so with Gossip Girl, the show centers around teenagers and is for teen, just older teens.

What I mean is the younger teen shows. Such as Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, ICarly, or some of the other ones they still show in re-runs. I can honestly say that I'm a fan of Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, and yes I'll even admit that I like the Jonas Brothers.

Does this mean that at 22, almost 23, I'm still stuck in my adolescents? Or does it mean I'm slightly crazy? But if you really think about it we're all somewhat crazy, in our own eccentric ways. Whether I'm crazy or not doesn't change that I enjoy watching these shows.

Although, there aren't as many good ones these days, as there used to be. The teen shows on the Disney Channel and Teen Nick have gone down hill. Ever since Drake and Josh, Unfabulous, or even Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide, the ideas for new shows are either the same, over done, or just not good.

Despite all of this there still are some good ones left, and I certainly watch them. If you're like me and still watch these types of shows, the ones I've mentioned are worth watching. As well as Sonny With a Chance starring Demi Lovato and the new Jonas Brothers show Jonas.

The One Thing I Hate About Book Stores

I love books. The one thing I enjoy doing the most is reading. Honestly I probably have a couple thousand books lining the walls in my room. Loving to read that much and you can imagine how I enjoy looking for books, at the book store.

Now what you're probably thinking is, what then could she possibly hate about the book stores? Well, that's simple. The thing that I hate is when they decided they need to rearrange the entire store.

It seems just when you know exactly where every section is they move it. Then you have to re-learn where each section you read is at. Not only that, but it also only seems to be the sections you look in. If you read Science Fiction it'll have been moved. Mystery, of course that one too. But if you don't read about computers that will have remained where it always was.

Personally, I think that if they have a system working for them why move it. All it does is cause heartache and strife for those who know the store even better then they do. I know I'm being overly dramatic, but where's the fun in it if I can't.
