hello
would anybody above 25 years old help me ?
i have an english assignment to write about being a teenager (iam in high school) and i need to ask several questions and i want it to be answered by someone who's above 25 .
basically the assignment is about the difference between teenagers before and teenagers now ,i will answer the questions too and then compare it to your answers , you would answer me with the things you used to do as a teenager not now so i can compare between now and then
the questions are :

from the inside :
1.what were your likes ?
2.what were your dislikes?
3.what were your hopes?
4.what were your worries?

from the outside :
5. describe your appearance as a teenager
6.what did you use to do ? how did you pass your time ?
7.how did adults used to preceive (view/see) you ?

thank you very much

from the inside :
1.what were your likes ? I guess you mean during high school. Well, I liked drawing, studying languages, hanging out with my friends, the few opportunities I had to travel....
2.what were your dislikes? I hated speaking in class (or in front of any groups of people), being the center of attention, chemistry class, not having enough choices in my life or control over it.
3.what were your hopes? I didn't know what to hope for. I just wanted things to be different, an "exciting" life (which I couldn't define very specifically yet), lots of travel, accomplishments in some field (but I didn't know which)
4.what were your worries? I worried that I wouldn't be able to support myself after high school, that I wouldn't find someone special to be with and to marry, and that my life would go nowhere.

from the outside :
5. describe your appearance as a teenager Plain. I was uncomfortable using makeup (I thought everyone was staring at me), I didn't have the money to have fashionable clothing or haircuts, and I was very skinny.
6.what did you use to do ? how did you pass your time ? I hung out with friends at their houses or after school, I participated in after-school activities at my school, I cut school a lot Wink, I spent far too much time alone in my room, I read, I talked on the phone with my friends until my mother made me hang up, I went to school dances, .... I didn't date.
7.how did adults used to preceive (view/see) you ? Probably quiet, shy, often cynical or sarcastic when I did speak, not a trouble-maker but disorganized in so many ways....

thank you very much
