               My Winter Break
                    
During my winter break I spent time trying to finish all the episodes of The Vampire Diaries, which I did. Since I didn’t have homework I was capable of doing more stuff. For xmas eve I spent the night at my aunt's house for a family night. We ate and had a bonfire, 3 days after we celebrates my brother's birthday on the 27th. His cake was so delicious it was the first time I actually ate it all because i am not a fan of cake. I did my best not to text certain people and to spend more time going out. That's what I always say and I always end up staying at home. I went to the mall and ps. I bought shoes and a bomber jacket and some other apparel. I was happy to Know it was the first time I bought everything with my own money. I wanted to work for winter break but I wasn’t able to because it is hard to find a job for a 14 year old girl. For New Years eve we didn’t do that much of a celebration as other years but we stayed up till 12 and yeah. For the rest of the week we basically slept ate good food and duh watch movies. I recently started watching Girl Meets World from Disney channel. It is pretty cool and funny, I got sick during the last couple of days and so I had a 13 mile race which was the 1st race I passed Lissbeth. I would of liked to go out more with my friends but  sometimes it is better at home with not so fake surroundings.  I learned many lessons these couple of days and wish they’d help me grow throughout these months left of freshman year.

Challenges Teens Face Today

  1. What are several of the major challenges teens deal with today?
  • Peer pressure                                        - Depression
  • Drug addiction                                      - Not fitting in
  • Relationships                                        - Bullying
  • Academic problems                             - Eating DISORDERS
  1. What are one or two challenges YOU are dealing with and what are you doing about them?
  Some challenges I am facing as a teen today are relationships among friends and academic problems. I am most likely trying to keep a small circle because last year having a lot of friends didn’t go so well. In school I get a lot of stress when I have a lot of homework to do, so I try to sort things out by doing what I feel confident about first.
  1. How does being a CTR person help you to overcome any challenges you may face?
Being a CTR person can help teens or any person overcome any challenges they may face because being a CTR person makes them good and brings them blessing when they choose the right. Basically when a challenge is approaching you deciding to do the right thing is important.
  1. How can you help other teens overcome their challenges?
I believe I can help other teens overcome their challenges by listening to them and share out their problems. AKA be there for them.
                                          
  • Reflection: What is the greatest need that teens have?
When it comes to needs and being a teen I think the greatest need they have is attention. I think every teens is always looking for someone who listens to them and is always there in both good and bad.
