13 Going on 30
Good Morning America started airing a segment called Thirteen Around the World, where they interview thirteen 13-year-old girls from around the world. What struck me in their initial report was how world-wide pop culture is. Virtually all of the girls listened to Shakira. The Palestinian girl liked to listen to Eminem while cleaning the house. The Iraqi girl and all here friends had Barbie backpacks. All of the girls counted their blue jeans as a prized possession. It is a small world, after all.
