[jQuery] Get text from selected dropdown option

I thought this was easy because it's easy to get the selected value from 
a dropdown but i ended up doing something like this

$('#dropdown').change(function(){
            $.log($(this).find('option').filter(':selected').text());
        });

Is there another way to get the text?
