THE EFFECT OF SMOKING AND ALCOHOLISM AMONG TEENAGERS.

Consuming alcohol for the teens might be very exciting and feels great especially in the midst of other teenagers but the consequences of these actions continue to increase.

Alcohol consumption especially binge drinking has tremendous effect on the consumer’s health and the effect is much on the teenagers. Presently, there is a strong correlation between cancer and alcohol and evidence shows that more than 15% of all breast cancer for females and cancer of the larynx, mouth, esophagus for the males are related to alcohol.

The effect of smoking on the teenager’s life is also alarming because the teens will get exposed to much earlier ill effect such as premature aging of the skin (wrinkles), reduce fertility levels, impotence, stomach ulcer and cataracts. 

The effects don’t stop here as it extends into a long term effect of health issues for any teenager. Heart disease is a long term effect of smoking in teenage years and diseases like coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure, cardiovascular disease and lots more leads to death especially when experienced earlier.

Unfortunately, the consequences of these actions does not acknowledge  the present of peer pressures or willingly smoking or consuming alcohol since the effect remains the same for all teenagers.

LIFE AS A TEENAGER!

As a teenager, life appears to be full of fun and most teenagers are always eager to try new things which mostly result into facing severe consequences of our actions.  As a teenager, we get involved in several nonchalant and wayward activities such as smoking, drinking alcoholism, vandalism and lots of immoral attitudes which often degenerate into an act of hooliganism and thuggery. For these reasons, it will be of greater advantage to familiarize ourselves with the effect of these actions to our health, career, future ambition and the community at large.

  
Nevertheless, most of these activities continually increase everyday out of ignorance and peer pressure which could have been possibly overcome through a joint effort on awareness of this syndrome. Regardless of efforts made by parents, guidance and government in curbing this menace, the issue still remains paramount in the heart of the teens. It is however empirical that other strategies must be applied and delegated in orienting the teens on how to live an healthy and safe life style.
WHAT NEXT?
* Who are we to blame for these actions? 
* Is change possible?
* How can we make the change?
* Who will take the responsibility for change?
* Can these problems be totally eradicated?
* How will the future look like without a solution to these problems?
These and more questions needs to be answered before progress can be made.

IT'S CHRISTMAS SEASON

Its  Christmas  season  and  the  weather  feels  just  like  Christmas;  cold, freezing  and  people  are  waiting anxiously  for  snow  to  fall.  Stores  and  shops  are  well  decorated   and  stock  with  Christmas  gifts, lights, flowers  etc.  making  the  whole  place  beautiful  and  glamorous.  Houses  on  the  other  hand  are  likewise  decorated  and  everyone  is  looking  forward  to  spending  quality  time  with  family  and  friends.
Christmas  means  different  things  to  different  people  but  the  most  important  thing  is  that,  2000 years  ago, a  child  was  born  and  his  name  was  called  JESUS,  the  Savior  of  the  world.  He  is  the  reason for the season.  So  in  all  our  activities,  we  must  celebrate  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ  with  everyone  no matter were we are.
Christmas  isn't  complete  if  not spent  with  family  but  you  may  be  wondering  the  kind of  family  am  referring  to  here. Its  not  our  biological  families,  but  our  ideal  families  such  as  friends  and  the  people  we  meet  at  one  point  of  our  life. Therefore  if  you  ain't  with  your  biological  families  don't  ever  feel  sad  nor  angry  or even  regretting  but  make  the  best  use  of  this  period. Your  ideal  family  might  be  waiting  out  there  for  you, so  its  an  opportunity  to  go  out and show some love to someone who is yearning for it.
Christmas  is  all  about  showing  love  to  one  another  and  creating  positive  impacts  in  the  lives  of  the  people  around  us.  So  make  sure  you  celebrate  and  make  the  best  out  of  this  season.  Merry  Christmas  to  you  all.

MISSING IN LICHFIELD, ENGLAND

 On a dry windy morning, two students by name Myla and Joel from Birmingham, England went in search of a job opportunity and fortunately, a job was found at Lichfield, a district in staffordshire, England.

They commenced their journey to this great district at about 9am with great enthusiasm. A train was taken from birmingham to Lichfield which lasted for about 40minutes. On arriving at the Lichfield City Centre, there was a need for a bus in order to get to their final destination called Fradley Arms. These students got on a bus going to Fradley with the idea that Fradley arms should be a popular place in Fradley but unknown to them, Fradley Arms was a restaurant and so not really known by most people. On their way, Myla decided to ask the bus driver of Fradley Arms bus stop and that how the reality befell these students.

The driver told them, ''This bus isn't going to that direction but to Fradley Park. I'll drop you at a close bus stop'', this was a great relief to them and the driver did as he promised. They continued their journey from the bus stop which was located at a Fradley Park roundabout with 4ways. the student walked into through these 4roads but none led to their destination and could not retrace their steps, different people were asked about the direction, taxi's were called but none came to their aid and claimed being really busy. Unfortunately, they were told that public transport doesn't pass through that direction and if they are determined to get to their destination, its was advisable to walk  through the express road and they might be lucky to reach there after 30mins walk.

The confusing thing about this journey, was that no one could tell them exactly how to get to their destination even if its needed walking but they tried to figure it out on their own, still no way and so a decision was made to return to Birmingham.

They continued to make a merry-go-round and until a patriotic citizen dircted them to a nearby bus stop which was expected in an hour's time, finally, the bus to Lichfield City Centre arrived  but the students were with  few coins and pleaded with the driver to collect cash in note which he refused and so the bus driver instructed them to step out of the bus.Joel gave his coins to Myla to get to City Centre and bring a cab while he wait patiently for her returned.

Finally, Myla came back with a cab and they went home happily but without a job. 

NOTE: 9ja's please don't begin a journey based on your idea, intuition or whatever you might called it because anybody can get lost at any place if you make one stupid mistake. Make enough enquiry, research before commencing on any journey.

Stop believing on ''i am omo 9ja, i can find my way anytime and anywhere'',this is England.
