Ponderings of the teenage brain.

One thing that teenagers think about is Netflix or TV shows with drama or reality. This is coming from young teenagers  who watch TV shows that contain drama, suspense, and crazy fun nights. Some of the shows we watch are the total opposite of our life and sometimes it's fun to see what things are like when we can't experience them. TV shows are like books that we watch instead of read . Although it's fun to read about drama,comedy, and action it's more interesting to watch it because you can pause it or resume and that's one thing I would want in my is to pause or fast forward my life. To me TV shows seem like an adventure we wish as teenagers would love to experience since our life is the complete opposite from what we watch. I know that I definitely have TV shows that make me think of nothing else in my life, I just lay there and begin my escape as the ne episode begins.

The first out of many shows that distracts me from my life is Total Divas. My escape begins on Sunday from eight to nine pm. This show is based on WWE. It gives me a taste of wrestling careers, love drama,and grown up life drama and lessons. This show is different from my other shows because  it's cast uses wwe divas that create drama to the show. These girls keep it professional at their job but also outside of their job becuase they don't use their talent for the wrong things.

The second TV show is called The Fosters,as some of you may know it starts at seven,ends at eight pm, and premiers on Monday. This show gives the audience all genres such as drama,mystery,and somewhat action. This show leaves me at the edge of my seat and leaves me asking questions at the end of the show plus I tend to add my commentary during the show. That's  why I love to watch The Fosters because I add my commentary even though no one cares,I ask questions ,and I am curious as what happens next. The drama to the show is different because two siblings that are sort of related fall in love knowing that it's wrong and that is not something you see everyday but, there is more that makes the show a brilliant idea.

As 15 or 16 year olds we at times think that things that happen on a TV screen are far more interesting than our life. When teenagers talk about TV shows they react as if it was an escape from their ordinary life. The pondering of the teenage brain is Netflix and TV shows filled with the opposite of what we experience each day.

Is knowledge of the past no longer useful for us today?

Is knowledge of the past no longer useful for us today?... Well I in my opinion I think 100% of your past knowledge helps you today but not just today but forever. There is so many things you are required to remember in Elementary, middle, and high school to help you prepare for college though college knowledge helps you for your career. If we didn't remember any of our past knowledge then we wouldn't be successful at all. The past knowledge we knew as middle schoolers was multiplying and dividing is  now helping us sophomores in algebra 2 and ,geometry and so much more. We should always be prepared for what comes next in school because we don't know if we need to remember it again. If our past knowledge isn't useful then education is useless. Some subjects are not necessary to learn to one but it may be useful to several fellow classmates. Knowledge especially past knowledge needs to be cherished because no matter what something of our knowledge will help us in future or present. We just never know when we will need that past knowledge to help through something.

Success & Happiness

Does success and happiness depend on the choices we make instead of the factors beyond our control? In my opinion i would have to say success is the main reason for why we make the choices we make. For example in order for us to choose a major we must be successful during college in order to make our choice into a dream, a real life dream. Not only is success the main reason why we makes choices but we should also be happy when and during this decision making because that choice we make has to make us happy otherwise there is not reason in making a decision that doesn't make us happy. An example of us being happy when making decision is like going to a singing competition, when the band members perform it makes them happy because they love what they are doing. I've always believed that confidence is key, so confidence should also be included in the factor that depends on the choices we make because along with being successful and happy with what ever choice, we should also be confident with what we do that makes us happy and successful. For example, actors in movies or tv shows must have confidence when they are fliming for a movie or tv show because it's their career, it's what makes them rich and famous. As for the last part of the question, the factors beyond our control is our choice and i feel that the three components, happiness, confidence, and success depends on not only  the choices we make but also the factors beyond our control because our choices don't have control over us,we have control of our choices.
