Clothing: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. January 7th, 2013| Teen Perspective, Teens
If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, like me, it is currently winter.  If you are as lucky as me to live in a region with a cold climate, then you have presumably been bundling up recently.  It has been exceptionally cold here over the last week

How to Switch Back Into School Mode

by Sam P. January 1st, 2013| Teen Perspective, Teens
When holiday break stumbles around the corner everyone gets excited.  And of course during break you don't have school so there's no need to go to bed at your usual time.  Most teenagers, me included, will stay up to the puny hours of the following morning texting

Christmas Gifts for Siblings: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. December 25th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Christmas is upon us!  As a child during Christmas (or your holiday of preference), receiving gifts is a highly exciting event.  Often, if you have siblings, you will buy them gifts with either your own or your parents' money.  In larger families, this can become very expensive.  So, some

Christmas Shopping on a Short Budget

by Sam P. December 21st, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
As a teenager without a full time substantial job, making money is difficult and my income is not reliable.  But as it is the holiday season, I do still have to give presents.  I also think that the best gifts are ones from the heart that you make yourself.

by Jacob P. December 10th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
I am beginning the initial stages of applying to St. Paul's Advanced Studies Program, a prestigious academic summer camp open to high school students from New Hampshire during the summer between 11th and 12th grade.  During the initial meeting at my high school, where students with qualifying

High Schools Sports: One Gender Acceptance?

by Sam P. December 4th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
In high school there are numerous school teams that you can join.  Most larger schools have more teams varying from dance to lacrosse, but most smaller schools have only a few teams like football and a cheer squad.  When you think about high school sports you think of football

Politics: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. November 28th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
I understand that the elections have already occurred, but I didn't feel a need for this article until the night of the election.  The effect of parenting on political views has always been obvious, but I never really considered how powerful it is, because I'm a relatively independent minded

Not Sleeping: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. November 13th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Sleep and I are not exactly best friends. I am frequented by nights in which I have trouble falling asleep or am not tired when it's  time to go to bed.  As I write, it is 2:32 AM and I am not tired at all.  My story is a

Date Plans

by Sam P. November 8th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Now, I know I have already given you a variety of places to go on dates, but that was for the spring or summer.  In the winter it's different.  You can no longer go to the beach, or a lake, or the park.  And it becomes much more difficult

Patience: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. October 31st, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Patience is a virtue.  This oft-uttered phrase is one of the truest cliches found in modern society.  Although it is widely used, almost to the point of being overused, it stands true.  At many points in life, patience will be a necessity to achieve something that you want.  Rushing

Homecoming Dresses

by Sam P. October 25th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Now some of you may have already had your school's homecoming dance, or just aren't having one, but some of you may not have.  My school's homecoming dance is this Saturday, and I am psyched!  But the difficult thing about homecoming is nobody ever knows just how fancy, or

Dealing with Poor Coaching

by Jacob P. October 16th, 2012| Teen Perspective
Before I get into this, I just thought that I would clarify that I am not going to state any names, or the sports these coaches were involved with, so that no one is potentially offended and no fingers are pointed.  All of these coaches had good intentions and
