do you ever think about the magazine growth that you've done?
when you go from those pre-teen pop magazines,
like girl talk?
with the cover that looks like a collage of celeb faces
and rainbow goodness?
to the more mature (but obliviously bubbly) teen magazines,
like Seventeen
that keep you cheery and optimistic in the most
colorful, yet mature way possible?
then you go to magazines like NYLON,
and other magazines
which loosens the notches on its belt
when it comes to language, censorship,
and all out culture.
just looking though all of those magazines now,
makes me realize how much growing you do as an adolescent
kinda like the feeling you have
when you outgrow a pair of bejeweled jeans,
get a more mature boot cut pair,
then grew out of their plainness and cut them into shorts
and added studs.
just look through a store's magazine rack,
look at that overly-done pop magazine.
the subjects?
the quizzes?
the, "how-to-apply-lipgloss" column?
don't you feel that your magazine stages are like a diary?
