Yes, I hate the mall. When I was a teen, I used to go with my younger sister, and usually ended up getting overwhelmed by the crowds, the smells, the noises, and the lights. There was this one specialty shop that I liked to visit, and I always braved the mall to do so. I also always got turned around and confused, usually when trying to rush out the proper entrance where the buses came, and it was an altogether unpleasant experience! There was one mall, when I was older, that I actually liked to visit. It was a small, unpopular mall with only one level, and some of the stores looked retro. Not many people shopped there, and it was never crowded. I never felt like I needed to rush out of there. Of course they modernized it and jazzed it up, and now its obnoxious like all the others
