Subject: What Thirteen has "truely" done.
Date: Jan 24, 2005
I watched the movie thirteen. And I fell in love with it. I bought it about a week after I rented it, cautiously hiding it from my parents, afraid that if they watched it, they would want to sit down and have a "talk," with me. The movie was so seductive, so real. It made me want to do things. I guess you could say I was easily influenced by the glamour of the movie. I had always been a "popular," girl, who was seen as having it all. The good family, the good looks, and the good grades. I don't know how this movie influenced me so much. When I look back, I'm embarrassed, ashamed, and afraid. But when I look at the girls around me, I am even more afraid. Shortly after seeing the movie, I began stealing, smoking, drinking... what not. It just really made me want to do those things, because thoses girls were so, "cool," and they had so much, "fun." My life became a blur. I had already been cutting, but this movie encouraged me to do it more. And then one day, everything fell apart when my friends and I were caught drinking and we had possesion of cocaine. It wasn't pretty. I realized...this movie is ruining so many things left in me. It has turned SO many girls at my school into this "ideal," Evie and Tracy. They talk like them, dress like them, but they won't admit that they've seen or liked the movie, because they want us to believe they are that rebellious on their own. Well, guys, guess what? I'm admitting it. That movie does things to people that don't have enough morals, and if nobody else will say or face it, I will : You will never be Evie or Tracy. Never.
You can dress like them, study the movie, steal, drink, do drugs, have sex, wear thicker eyeliner. But its all glamour in that movie. Its like so many of our lives, but its not real.
I wish I could tell this to the people see suffering every day. I've moved to another area, I've started over, but they still go home, watch the movie, go out, steal more thongs, and say "fuck." And wow, it makes them feel special. When will we learn, America?
I'm fifteen now. I'm happy. And I'm hopeful. But not without pain. Two weeks ago I ripped the Thirteen DVD in half. It's a part of my future I never want to think about again.
