Chick Teen Series (90210, One Tree Hill and etc.)

Yes, you may wonder what am I doing or where am I heading. For one, yes it is a teen drama series and secondly, it is for girls. But enough of this labelling because for me it is full of crap. Our lives has been full of those labels and norms / standards that we live by. We always care what other people would or will say whenever we like something that doesn't conform to the norm or to what society dictates of us. For example, guys like action movies and girls like drama. This is crazy and this has taken a great impact on how we act, think and do things. Have you ever stopped and reflected about this: "Yes, you are following what society dictates but the question is, are you doing it correctly?" Each one of us has his or her own set of values, brought up differently by our parents, culture to follow and roles to fulfill. Are we living our lives the way we want them to be? Are we living it exactly the right way we want to be as well? We always take into priority what other people will think and what society dictates of us but we never took into consideration if we are doing it right.

My stand is, go ahead, like what you want to like, do what you want to do, the world is yours, conquer it. Start to dream, build your foundation, burn bridges that you think needs burning. End whatever needs to be ended for as long as you do it without hurting, stepping or using someone. Because it is your life that you are living.

We always react like it is too young for me, it is too old for me, it is not within my age anymore or what not. But little did you know that these tv programs may start to open our eyes and give us a refresher course with regards to the values, etiquettes and morals we may have forgotten as we grow through the years. Time flies by so fast these days and the sad part of it is that time overtakes us most of the time. We never had time to pause and think and reflect on what are we doing to ourselves, our family and our friends. So take time off from everything, sit back, watch and learn. These chick teen drama series aren't there just to entertain, they are there to teach us, for us to learn and remember. And there is no age limit for realization and learning, it is a life long process and we should never get tired of them. Get that remote control and turn on the tv and watch for you to learn, accept, reflect and do something about it.
