I finally reached the age of stupidity. When my brother was a teenager he was cool to me he was awesome. Not kidding, he is still cool to me. I remember myself being stupid and regret myself. The changes I have seen in myself for these past months are that I try to be cool subconsciously, try hiding my mistakes and hate people who don't let me be free. Many people don't realise this and continue this habit and I think that is the most grave mistake as a teen, nobody realises what they become under influence and mind. I sleep at night thinking about how I can change my habits. I frequently ask my elders for suggestions and read books that can inspire me to change my habits and be a positive person. I think doing this can help a teen very much. I learn new things and it can make a great change in my life. It's not the new thing I learn. It's the feeling of learning and the positive attitude I get from that knowledge. I expect in the future that I will be optimistic and learn new things and not be happy. And I will not only expect but start from changing my habits. A few months ago I started to want to be funny in the class to earn a reputation as a “cool” person and I think that is my worst mistake. But I will change and be the person that I truly am. Well nowadays kids watch T.V and Phones which not only affect their eyes but also their habits. They get influenced by the content creator and they would be addicted and want more of the videos. People get addicted from T.V and devices, but how to stop it and where will the children get entertainment from? Well the answer truly is BOOKS. Books are the solution. They will give you knowledge and entertainment and sometimes you will fall in love with them. As a teenager, I think I know that by reading books we can understand life and we get shaped into a beautiful human.
