You have lived on Planet Earth for approximately one and a half
decades and in that time you have learnt many things: You have
burped and cried. You have developed slowly into spitting your
food out at anyone who wanted to make you eat lukewarm,
mashed vegetables. You successfully developed the talent of
"having a tantrum to get what you want". You grew some more
into a creature they call "a teenager" where you successfully
conquered the many trials that faced you. You obtained a good-
looking... cell phone, and have learnt a whole new vocabulary
that adults cannot understand. You are now able to convincingly
’
tell your teacher that "yes Ma am, it was tragic, my dog did eat
my homework... and what is even worse is my friend is sick
today and unfortunately she has got my locker key - so can I
present my project tomorrow!?"
