Teen’s Perspective on Projects

February 3rd, 2012 Posted by Sam P. | Academics, Learning, Teen Perspective
Whether you really like them or not, projects are frustrating.  Me, I typically like them.  I actually just finished one in science that was an egg drop project.  You had to keep an egg from breaking when it was dropped.  It was quite frustrating.  So I decided to write about it.
Whether you are a straight A genius, or a student that probably won’t even make it into college, everybody has their breaking point.  And whether it is having to write a report on your project, doing the project, or having to ask for help on it -- that’s mine

How to Handle Final Exams

January 23rd, 2012 Posted by Jacob P. | Academics, Adolescence, Teen Perspective
This week, my school is beginning the final exams for the first semester.  At my high school, semester-long classes must have a final at the end and year-long classes must have a midterm at the end of the first semester and a final exam at the end of the second.  Like some students, Seniors are exempt from midterm and final exams if they have a 90 or above in the class (except for AP classes).  Some schools have this rule apply to other grades as well, but it only applies to seniors at my high school.  This being said,

This post will be my 46th and final post on YPI from the teen perspective; I'm turning 20 later this month!

Sleepovers on School Nights

Tomorrow night, I will be hanging out at my friend's house to watch the BCS National Championship Game (specifically to watch LSU win).  Because the game starts at 8:30 and it probably won't end to some time after 11 P.M., I am going to be spending the night at his house afterwards.  This will be my first time sleeping over at a  friend's house on a school night, so I thought I would post my thoughts on it.

Teen’s Perspective on New Year’s

January 2nd, 2012 Posted by Sam P. | Pregnancy, Teen Perspective, Teens
New Year's Eve.  The day everyone is told to stay up till midnight.  It really is quite a glorious day. Or night depending on how you look at it.  I guess you could even consider it morning.  Whatever way you look at it, it is a very important day of the year.  It celebrates the transformation of one year to another.  But, with all of the fun, people commonly overlook safety.

In the past years, New Year's Eve has had one of the highest pregnancy rates.  By that I mean that it is one of the likeliest days that women
