My "average" Teenage Life!

Television shows portray what they call the "average life of a teenager." Whether you're a star on your high school football team, the girl who always gossips around school for attention, having physic powers to be able to see in the future, or even having two identities, can we say there is such a thing known as "the average life?" Whether you say there is or not, every person has their own definition of the average teen life. Flipping through the channels going from the USA Network, Lifetime, MTV, to the Disney Channel I have discovered my life to be somewhat similar to the show Life With Derek. The character that could define me well is Casey MacDonald.

Casey MacDonald is a fifteen year old girl who is currently a student in high school. She is extremely dedicated to her school work. She constantly gives 100% and sometimes even more effort in doing her best.She is what people call a "goody two shoe." She gets straight A's on every single report card. She may get good grades, but it is not always easy. She is so set on being perfect that she stresses out to the extreme. I myself, cannot brag about having straight A's, but I am dedicated to my school work as well. I may not spend hours upon hours doing homework or studying but I do take the time to make the quality of my work the best that I can. Throughout my high school years I can say that I only missed one day of school. Sure people may think I am a "goody goody" but in my opinion that is an accomplishment. I may not be the student running to class afraid to be late or grabbing the first seat in the front row, but I give my utmost effort in schooling. I take advantage of the opportunity to gain knowledge.
