Teens and their problems? Another article dramatizing teens? Nah, This is a realistic article (well, it has to be as its written by one!) The heading literally said unhelpful, but I think this article is sure to help you understand quirky beings called teenagers! As a teen myself, I know our main interest is to look cool, no wait- it’s a kind of obsession. So, don’t be surprised if all our interests revolve around the idea of being “cool”!!
So, read on to find out what goes inside our minds!
SOCIAL MEDIA
We want to look amazing in our Instagram stories, Facebook stories and other social media platforms. We want to gain as many followers and likes and basically as I said, look “cool”.
Social media is like bright, shiny and colourful place at least that’s what we think. Due to this idealised notion of social media, we all want to join it.
Social media, helps us express ourselves. We can very literally be whoever we want. In fact, the guy least popular in school might be the best gamer online!
But social media can be scary place too. Due to the extensive exposure to random people, it is inevitable to come across some creeps or people who will have nothing good to say about you (yah talking about them haters).
In conclusion I’d say that we aren’t as reckless as people make us out to be. We almost always know the pros and cons of our actions but don’t be afraid to give us a telling off if we’re doing something irresponsible.
ME TIME
And yeah- I don’t think I need to mention this, but we love us some ‘me time’ or space, away from the other people, ALONE.
That’s why we crave solo trips like those in movies(At least I do!) because sometimes we have so much going in our head that we need time to sort it out, and that’s when we crave ‘me time.’
Even though adults don’t think this is necessary, It is as we also have problems which our parents don’t know nor understand.
So, don’t shy away from some me-time. Close up your blinds, get your blankets, and enjoy some reticence.
MUSIC
Well, music is basically the life of me right now and would be for most teens.
I think we like it because It gives us a much-needed escape from reality.

SPORTS
Well, not relatable now, but it was before the universally hated virus. We like all kinds of games, including cricket, football, badminton and what not.
It’s not THAT dark and gloomy though, we have some fun sites like chess.com for people who like chess, and some games like 3d badminton, so we can enjoy the real thing.
But of course, nothing compares to the outside world and playing with friends.
FASHION
can’t believe that I’m putting this on the 5th number. Like, how could I- Anyways, fashion is a VERY important part of a teen’s life.
it is said, “Fashion is the armor to survive the reality of everyday life.” ~ BILL CUNNIGHAM Well, he is definitely not wrong. Fashion adds to one’s personality.
Perfect dressing sense is a MUST in every teen.
Mind me, I’m talking about both of the genders. Yes, boys should have and do have a fashion sense too. Fashion gives us a way to express ourselves, and it is rightly said that-
“Fashion speaks about your personality without having you to speak a word.”
Well lets end this article with this VERY wise saying!
I surely hope you could understand teens a little better than before.
So, until next time, adios folks!
