Most days I’d like to believe that I’m still young‚ hip‚ and cool. And while it may be true that I’ve just now become a twenty-something‚ it always surprises me how "out of tune" I can be at times. I had no idea who Carly Rae Jepsen was until a few months ago and even now I do not get the appeal of a certain popular pop star. I think it’s safe to say that I have a few more years left before I become completely clueless. Though I am a bit nervous. How can I possibly write for kids when it seems with
