Talking 'bout my generation.

My blog is so boring. I mean I enjoy my writing, but hey, I'm the one writing so who cares. I rarely let you into my interests and I rarely put my pictures in. It's kind of mindless of me. I'm going to try to make it a tad more interesting in the days to come.
So I'm still sick today. That's why I have time to write.
Today I spent my morning by watching a marathon of the television show "World of Jenks." All I have to say is Oh My God! That show is absolutely riveting. Andrew Jenks, a film producer is the creator. He lives with all these remarkable people and brings us into their lives. It's breathtaking. From rappers to homeless people. Though I'm a little too young to do that, I wish I could. Change peoples lives while they change mine. He's also inspired me to have a lot more fondness for different people and filmography of course! It's beautiful. It makes me wonder what I'm going to do when I get to his age. He's changing the world little by little and keeping those from judging "the younger generation." We're not all useless. That's what agrivates me the most. My parents, adults, everyone older looks down on our generation. Our intellectual level, our skills, our responsibility, everything! I was reading an article the other day about how 2nd graders can't tie their shoes. It's a little much to judge so harshly, just because one person can't, doesn't me the whole generation is unable to be successful. If anything, it's the parents and the constant changing society that's affecting us. Complaints of being to technological orientated is also another huge problem of mine. It' not our fault that rules are more strict. They keep us locked up, well the majority of us. So all we can do is entertain ourselves with technology. Believe me, if I was allowed more freedom I would take it in a heartbeat. I can't even get my license until I'm 17!
I'm determined though. Determined to be one of those of my generation to show we're not a waste. People are so close-minded and conventional. They don't see the uniqueness in all of us and the variety of skills we posess. We need someone to be the sunlight to our skills and make them grow. We don't have that. I wish the adults could look at themselves. See the examples we're trying to learn from. A world of divorce, stealing, cheating, lying. The political world is in a craze. The financial world, just as bad. The moral world, the worst. We are being showed that money conquers all and vanity is all the rage. Not love. Not happiness. My own parents ruined their love over the silliest of sins and the majority of their fights were about money. It makes me think, are we really the generation that needs help, or do the generation that gave birth to us need it the most?
