Adolescence

For those of you who don't know what adolescence is, it is a time or period in your life when you're a young teenager.

I Know at times it makes us uncomfortable and we don't want ot go through it, but yes it's major.

Oh don't worry you don't have to take a test on it or even study because it's common sense.

I know what I'm talking about because I am 13 myself as we speak. Adolescence changes you in many ways.

Hips get bigger, you grow taller, shoulders get wider, voices get deeper, hair grows all over, and zits pop up-sorry to say but all of this stays.

While you're changing beware, you may feel awkward at times, but wait and see the finished product, don't be so quick to imagine yourself as a geek.

But it's really cool not being an adult, not being a child, but our very own social group of teenage adolescents.

sometimes we're up, sometimes we're down, sometimes we're happy, somtimes we frown.

Always remember adolescents have a special beauty of their own.

If it's not found on the ouside, it is always found within.

Each adolescent is special from beginning to end.
