Realtionships

This may be pretty instresting because my first blog was about this same subject but I decided I need to at least try and see what it is like to be in a realationship before I can start judginging it. So yes out of right now I am dating a close friend of mine in a , semicasual relationship. Its hard to say what will happen next we have already had are moments of drama. I'm not sure how well this will work out or even how it is suppose to work. If anybody is on the same course I 'm on I need help or advice on how to sustian a well balence relationship. I never thought it would be this hard to date someone I do not have the time for either I barly see her as much as she wants too. Long story short I still think most teens are not ready to handle a relationship but for those who can . I need help.

Money

As many of you know our world is runnede and governed by money. In the past years we have been struggling with  a double dive recession and been recovering very very slowly. As the govement has to learn how to mange their money so does each and every individual person. I am right now at the starting piont in figuring out how to manage my mom and starting to realize how big of deal it is to keep a check book depositing money and withdrawing money from my account.I want to start on a debit crad but it is hard to do this when you can bearly keep up with your school work and activites along side learning how to drive. I wonder how people do it any tips.

What makes someone important or impactful.

During this time in my life I face peer pressure and criticism everywhere I turn. I often catch people telling me how I should be and what I not suppose to be. Its hard to find who you really are in this world when there are so many people from different backgrounds and ideas telling you how your suppose to be. People I met in my life influence me one way or another. For the good or the bad. Some individuals such as my parents have a large impact on my life as well.The question I have is what is the difference between influencing someone and having a big impact on someone.Also what does it take for someone to have enough power to impact another person.

How hard can school get!?

I know cheating is not the best idea when it comes to school. Ademic intergrity is very hard for most students. I take short cuts all the time whenever it comes to schoolwork. Whwn I have alot of work to do and so little time its hard to adjust and make arrangements to get your himework done. So I might cheat here or copy my friends answers here  just to get by. I hear teachers say the only thing your cheating on is yourself and so far that does not seem to be true. In a matter of fact Im doning quite well. I know its not something I should be doing down the road but its hard not to. Everyone has there ways of getting by certian areas of their life. What I need to know is why does the world put so much pressure on education? Why can we not learn without being graded?

Habits

Habitats are a pain specially when they are bad ones. just these last couple of days I gotten into some bad habits my parents do not like. For me to get a debit card I have to break some of these awful habits one is not cleaning my room another one is waiting till the last second to do all of my homework. Its breaking these habits when you are use to doing them. Its a whole other story when you have to get into good habits too. It becomes a pain when you have to do so much to accomplish so little. The problem I facing right now is how to avoid bad habits and get into good ones down the road.

Driving

Driving has always been a challenge for me. For other it may seem easy. Within the next few months I will have a licenses but I will have no car. Even though I work I do not make enough money to support a car payment. When I asked my mom if she would help me pay some of the bill. She told me to save up for college instead. Not a bad suggestion but it doesn't help my driving cause. My mom said before she would let me drive I would need to pay for insurance and maintenance on the car. She said I would also need to consider taking defensive driving classes. Long story short the list goes on and on. What the best way to persuade your parents to let you buy a big payment.

Life lessons and creed for teens

My mom gave me some advice helped her get through her high school years that her mom told her. I try my best to abide by theses rules. Tell me what you think of them.

• Only pick a date that will make a good mate.
• Don't let the crowd pressure you. Stand for something or fall for anything.
• Be humble and obey for you may give orders someday.
• Don't let your parents down . They brought you up.
• Choose carefully , your companions and friends. Much of what you will become will depend on them.
• Guard your thoughts and heart with care. What you think is what you are.
• Be the master of your habits and ways, or they may master you for all of your days.

How do you make amends to a broken relationships?

One of the problems with teens today is they do not know how to forgive. Some adolesents even hold grudges for a long time. Even if they pass the forgiving stage it is hard to forget the damage that has been done. This especially happens in critical relationships in a teen's life. This becomes a strong problem down the road when adults do not remember to show compassion or mercy for one other. Then these are forgotten and foreign concepts in some households creating a continuious cycle. Long story short, I need to make amends to some bridges I've burned down completely. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Is discrimination a problem for teens?

I think the worst thing a human can do is discriminate a person based on assumptions and characteristic traits. Everyone is special and unique but that doesn't mean to prosecute them because of this. I see this happen all over school. What teens and young adults need to realize is that you do not need to except the person and love them but to have and to show tolerance. Which simply means you don't have to like the individual but just coexist with them. Today's  discrimination is to very different to prejudice ideals dealing with race or sexuality, this has more to do with what type of people you hang out and the status you have at school. I myself is accused with committing this act so I am here to ask how to gain better understanding of  differences other people may have.

What makes someone Influential?

I noticed recently that peolple follow and listen to people with power or who seem to have leadership

demeanor that everbody looks up to and amire for the good or the bad. Some people call it being popular, some call it being cool. I call it being influential. What makes teens want to follow and support an idea or an image? With enough people supporting a leader belief  it gives that person power and control  over what that person hears or do. For teens a great example would be the teachers we listen to everday in school. When they tells us to do something we have to listen or consenquences will happen. They try, as their job to influence us to learn and to succeed everyday. What i am trying to figure out is whats the difference bettween having authority or having influence? I ask because I belive if my life doesent effects someone for the better, my life will be in vain. 

Is life better as a teen or an adult?

As a young teen, I don't have to worry about paying a mortgage or bills, for school is pretty much my life. Most adolescences do not work a full time job and do not have to worry about providing for themselves and others. To me, my teenage life is very simplistic, yet as busy as ever. For either schools or extra curricular activities, I'm always on the run and working. This can get super exhausting . Right now, I average about five hours of sleep per night which isn't my idea of fun. At this stage in my life, I still have to operate around my parents schedule to get anything done, which can be a pain. As an adult you get paid for what work your donig; school you do not. Also adults have more legal rights such as drinking. Even though the responsibilities of an adult are overwhelming you have more freedom. So I ask is life better as a teen or an adult?

Is college even worth it?

The other day, while I was studying hard for an exam I heared a scary discussion on CNN. They were talking about how the rising tuition cost for colleges is getting so overprice its almost not worth going. As a student who will be graduating pretty soon this is not good news. To go to a nice out of state college will almost cost about forty thousand a year. That's a whole lot of money that I don't have. Sure, there are many programs out there that will help me pay off this payment, but overall I will still have to get a job to pay it off. The economy as of right now is not looking to hot either as far as job employment goes. This makes me wonder, maybe I should just get a full time job right out of high school  and not have to worry about college fees or debt. I can focus on paying for food, my rent, and starting a life. To get a great job you need at least a master degree now a days, so this will cost even more money. The question is should you not go to college and get a chance to start a small life right away, or go and get a great education for a slim chance you might get a higher paying job. Even though you will be in ten or more years of debt that you will still have to somehow work off? Is college even worth it anymore?

Teen Dateing

For me as a high schooler I take school pretty seriously. I work hard so I may have a better future for myself. For many teens, high school is a time for self discovery and transformation. A time for learning how to become an adult. The four years I'm in high school will set the course of the rest of my life. This makes me wonder why so many teens focus on dating and serious relationships during high school. In my opinion, I believe the purpose of dating is to find who you want to be with for the rest of your life. Most relationships in high school will never work out. I see relationships start and end within a week, cause drama and heartbreak. Even if the relationship gets through four years of high school I don't think it will last over college. I feel it is o.k to be best friends with somebody with the opposite sex or ask them to a dance, but dating in high school should not the top priority or focus of a teen. My question is why do young teens date at a stage in their life where finding a partner isn't all that relevant?
