Being a teenager is hard, which is why there are many amazing teen movies documenting (记录)the experience. Some are so good that they will become classics in a few years. Here is a list for you.
Mean Girls

13 Going on 30
This classic follows Jenna Rink, a girl whose wish on her 13th birthday is to grow up and escape from high school. The next day her wish comes true. She wakes up in her 30-year-old body only to find that she's an editor of a major magazine in America. Although she loves her new life at first, she quickly finds out that being grown-up isn't that much easier than being 13.
