Adolescents of our earth, this may be the turning point for them.

This may be a pristine, clean start for teenagers...back in the days I was a person enduring stress - the outcome varied. I am now an author whom creates an insane amount of thriller novels.
Students socialising within educational premises.

In the duration of our generations passing and are also preceding, so are our adolescents. Many will have been gradually maturing up as stages in the course of their life gets tenacious, due to exams and jobs. But, this is a question I have been eager to ask you. Will the majority of them persevere or consider to go back to the wrong habits in life?

As the years elapsed, I had endured some rather stressful decisions. At the age of 16, I wasn't too sure to attend school, or seek for a job – I am now an author. I had been incredibly abashed about what were my answers for all my stressful questions were. Luckily, I was not the only one afflicting from this. It is scientifically proven that one in 10 teenagers had been going through many decisions within their lives. Many teenagers of the past had been in negative conflicts, which ruins the teenagers life stage reputation. This could be lack of dedication to work, smoking, drinking, etc. Could this now be a turning point?

Many teenagers are directly thrown with pressure, due to the fact knowing how well you do as a teenager highly impacts your future. Scary right? I had always wanted to become a clinical psychologist for years, eventually I had been given advice about other career paths, then I done some twist and turns then researched about authors. What will I do next?

The main purpose of this is article is to inform adolescents to research and seek more knowledge about universities, jobs, and work – in order to attain their positive future. There could be jobs such as Journalism, Nursing, Engineering, and accountancy. Judging by the educational examination results rising, there could be a high chance that these careers will be obtained.

Don't worry, it is not in my intentions to force all you teenagers to work hard, its just some ordinary advice. It is proven that 50% of adolescents across England and Wales have been improving their lives for their own benefit regarding education. Fantastic! As the years pass by, so will student's with degrees.

Teenagers may not be so ''bad'' after all, they just need a small push of perseverance and guiding, and they're on their way to the top. As we stop to think, there could be many reasons why teenagers suddenly decide to step up and make their way to the right path. Most teenagers must have been extremely put off by the outcome of the unsuccessful life. Mabye? I think so.


To all you teenagers, continue achieving and become a role model to the younger generation. Don’t give up.

New York - Effulgent lights bright up the city

The allurement and dazzling sightings had made an exquisite impression on Deeka Hussein 
as she expires the sight-seeings of the glorious New York, ''Home of Celebrities''.

Statue of Liberty located in New York city.

As I was leisurely exploring the prodigious tourist attractions, i.e. Statue of Liberty of NYC, the gratifying sightings of the tower buildings made me re-consider my thoughts about the beauty of this earth we live in! The atmosphere of this remarkable city brought hope within my feelings about the change of how the UK back home will turn out to be. As I took my first precious steps, I began to explore the inner city which the ''New Yorkers'' like to name, Times Square.

As time quickly flew by like the speed of light, while the flourishing trees swayed I soon began to witness the vibe of the individuals of this city. As I quickly hopped on a tour bus advertising Broadway musicals, I increase my gaze of the Broadway, Down-town, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Theatres, and illuminated yellow taxis. Am I still on earth, or have I just encountered a sneak peak of Heaven? Its connection of diverse restaurants gives it a savouriness of the city, the presence of being within New York almost feels as if you have entered a parallel universe, (the heavenly kind!)

The chaotic streets of New York almost feels as if you are walking through a treacherous war zone. Men wearing prestigious suits, women wearing sophisticated dresses hopping into taxis. In contrast, I witnessed homeless individuals, wearing second hand clothing, anxiously desperate for money. The mornings I had arose to witnessing the astonishing view of New York! (Breath-taking..literally!) I was somewhat thrilled to experience a taste of the traditional New York doughnut, and a cup of tea. Ah, just like home.

As I got to experience the night life of New York (In Times Square) I came across a rather peculiar individual, from Brooklyn called Joey. Joey had explained the historic grounds of Times Square, and had given me an insight to the life of the New Yorkers. In the background while Joey was directly conversing, I had suddenly been gazing at the Statue of Liberty, as if it was beaming towards me. I was rather amazed about the historic grounds of New York, so I decided to explore more of this interesting location.

As time went on, I stopped and admired the pulchritude of the beaming bright lights of Times Square. Photographers and tourists within my surroundings I had frozen. The exquisiteness of NYC shocked me! (almost as if I had been electrocuted). Suddenly, after all the seeings of this phenomenal city, it was time for my plane to arrive back to England. How fast did this experience go? However, I rather enjoyed my stays in the luxurious hotels.

Like to visit now? Of course you do!


Quote of Douglas Rogers review of New York '''It’s the most exciting city in the world.''

Rise of the Twitter addiction: Is twitter rapidly swallowing our brains as time fly's by? What is Twitters secret for this huge addiction?

An image of the Twitter logo adapted as an app logo.

In the recent years, it is now established that Twitter is one of the largest social networking sites, with approximately over 500 million registered users in 2012, and an estimated amount of 340 million tweets per day. These insane amount of figures clearly state about the addiction of twitter, and how users cannot stop the endless 'tweets' which is the main part of Twitter. Now, I don't know about you, but I certainly do not think that 140 characters is enough for all you twitter addicts, seeing as the twitter rate is still increasing as time goes by.

For those of you who have no knowledge about the purpose of twitter, and/or what twitter is; Twitter is:
''A social network and real-time communication service launched in 2006 and used by millions of people and organizations to quickly share and discover information.'' From: http://socialmediatoday.com/daniel-zeevi/1371811/twitter-101-what-twitter-really-about

Many others may think that Twitter is an upgraded, popular alternative from Facebook. However, the results of the statistics via above clearly illustrates how Facebook and Twitter differ from each other. Not only twitter is a website you can converse and 'exchange words' to other individuals and socialise, but you can also keep up-up-date on what celebrities and popular people have been doing within their lives, which gives twitter an extra bonus of it's popularity!

Many experts, and society believe that twitter hugely interferes with our education, social life, and communication. ''Twitter is a disease to us, and to our lives. We must reduce the limit of 'tweeting' to others on twitter. That way, we will increase our social lives.'' said individuals from the urban city of London. Although there has been a range of different talks about twitter. Some say it is 'poison' and some say it is 'Useful to keep in touch.' one interesting fact is that ''Twitter has 500 million registered profiles; 100 million are from the U.S.'' If we know that 100 million are from the U.S, can you imagine the popularity from other countries across Europe?

Travel Writing.


...8 hours later..My airline finally arrives in the exotic airport of East Africa, Somalia. The land of sunshine, the traditional atmosphere, the exquisite sight seeings, words can't describe how Somalia has developed, oh the beauty. My first ever steps into the land had almost amazed me, I had finally made it into my own home town, the motherland. In any one day in Somalia you could experience the glory of the city, by the people that are filled within the city, the companionship between yourself and another citizen, you can almost feel the connection of friendship just by casually greeting each other. 

As the day leisurely goes by, the night commences. The traditional enticing Somali dancing in the duration of the night entices every individual in the community. The people creating a traditional atmosphere by the sound of the drums while the people begin their own cultural, diverse dancing captivated me - could there be any more enticing, yet lively atmosphere? I hadn't been to Somalia for years, which made me forget how exquisite the location is. By seeing the historical grounds and locations around the city, the rural countryside, the glorious beach fascinated me! The one thing I will never forget, is the moment I had witnessed my very first camel. I even had the chance to ride the camel, which thrilled me completely, never will I ever forget that moment. The gratifying foods...unbelievably glorious food. Weeks and weeks of paradise, I return home, I finally return from one of the best experiences. It really was a true, astonishing experience.

All we have is today, make the most of your life, and persevere.


We all take our life for granted at certain times..but..when do we know when it is the end? Who knows.. never give up the dreams you live for.



Image of a person's life course from birth, until the end of your life ages.

NEVER GIVE UP!

Perseverance is the key to success! Although there are many ways to describe success, there is only one way to describe failure - a lack of perseverance.
What I mean about perseverance is that an individual never gives up, regardless of how tough things get.
Whatever the meaning of success is to you, it always means to never stop fighting on what you want within your life. Nobody knows when it will be the end, but we know what we have to do in our life, in order to attain our aspirations and dreams. Each and every day that rapidly passes, do we realise what is really passing? Valuable, precious time to realise that we can make a wide range of differences towards our lives. Live your life without no limits, because once you leave your comfort zone, that is where your life begins.

Incidentally, when was the last time you changed somebody's life? In order to do something much more appealing, why don't you decide to change somebody else's life too? This could be completed by throwing a life-changing, enticing and advice to them by leaving them a profound, heart warming message, thoroughly conversing with them about what they need to do in order to achieve. This can make them reconsider the way they maintain and live their own lifestyle, in order to take life more seriously, due to the fact that we all know, I presume, life is short. Make the most out of everything that is present within our lives, because you will never know when it slowly fades away, and we will not notice.

The phrase 'NEVER GIVE UP' may define a variety of things. This may be a connotation for each individual and it could mean a range of different connotations to each person, due to the fact that our brains all function and think differently. 'NEVER GIVE UP' could be a connotation of examinations, or this could be an Athletic preparing for a long-distance race. Sometimes, motivation may not be the thing that consolidates our perseverance. Each individual have different learning abilities, as well as learning things different.  

Imagine this.. 

''You are an individual. You strive to attain a variety of things. However, in order to attain a variety of things, you must make a difference to your community, environment, and your urban city. How would you shift your city from it being filled with poverty? What techniques would you use? Would you give up if things get tough? You will have approximately 48 hours in order to complete everything. Then.. the time is up.''

Think about it.. the whole purpose of that rather unusual statement is to realise how quick time fades away, during that 48 hours, you will immediately realise how valuable time is. We may not realise how rapid time goes, but in that statement, 48 hours will not simply feel like 48, it could be more, it could be less.

SUNDAY, 6TH OCTOBER 2013.

Own creation of a monologue.

The scene is set in a neglected, unfamiliar island, whom nobody has ever established before. Lady Latifah and Mary have been stranded on this desiccated island for approximately 48 hours, which they are surrounded by absolutely nothing except impoverished sand. Mary immediately accuses Latifah for setting a trap on her. It is sunset.

LADY LATIFAH: Mary! I can assure you, this was NOT done intentionally! You MUST MUST MUST believe me on this! (The wind blows fiercely and the air outside rages violently) My agent and I have been thoroughly planning on flying overseas around the world. Somehow, as fast as the speed of light, we end up here, with no explanation for you, and I. You may not believe me, but what can I do for you to trust me on this? (Dramatic pause) Ever since we have bonded closely, the trust is leisurely going down. I have tried to make amends, Lord knows I have tried to make amends for you, and I, for the sake of our lives. Lord knows that we will eventually be saved. And YOU Mary, will know in the end that this was not in my intention for this to happen. We are all human beings, we make mistakes. (Pause) I remember when we were young children, we had aspirations of travelling around the earth. We strive to attain that aspiration, and look where we are now (Latifah pauses and stares at Mary) Here we are surrounded by impoverished sand, tree's filled with dead golden-orange leaves, and you are blaming me for this! I can assure you we will not stay here forever, Mary. I ask myself, sometimes, ''How did we get into this mess?'' Was it fate? Was it supposed to happen? Is this an experience we will cherish for the rest of our lives? We have to accept that this has already happened, regardless of who planned, or if it just happened. Trust me, this nightmare will eventually end, just trust me. (Silence)
