A person who can't remember to walk the dog, but never forgets a phone number.

A weight watcher who goes on a diet by giving up candy bars before breakfast.

A youngster who receives his/her allowance on Monday, spends it on Tuesday, and borrows from his/her best friend on Wednesday.

Someone who can hear a song by Madonna played three blocks away but not his mother calling from the next room.

A whiz who can operate the latest computer without a lesson but cannot make a bed.

A student who will spend 12 minutes studying for her history exam, and 12 hours for her driver's license.

A youngster who is well informed about anything he doesn't have to study.

An enthusiast who has the energy to ride a bike for miles, but is usually too tired to dry the dishes.

A connoisseur of two kinds of fine music: loud and VERY LOUD

A young woman who loves the cat and tolerates her brother.

A person who is always late for dinner but always on time for a "raid" in Warcraft

A romantic who never falls in love more than once a week.

A budding beauty who never smiles until her braces come off.

A boy who can sleep until noon on any Saturday when he suspects the lawn needs mowing.

That is so true. As a teen, this sounds like a lot like some of my friends.

1998: Bachelor of Science: Computer Science
2002: MBA
2004: Bachelor of Arts: Education with History Emphasis

And, if all goes well, in 2012, just before the end of the world (According to the Mayan calendar) I should have my doctorate in mathematics.

Wow! Impressive resume! I was referring to you graduating from American "Adolescence". Or in your case Russian Adolescence... I believe they would be similiar in time not necessarily in action.

You wrote a statement that wasn't really coherent. It wasn't put together well...

It's OK, I won't bash ya for it. Just don't stay there...

A teen is ANYBODY at any age that still needs financial support for any reason sake medical conditions. So If your a isolated person at 30 and collect money from the Gov., ex spouse, Momma,Grandma, Sugar daddy and sugar momma, Pimp, your back to thug kid level. Physically your an adult, but mentally your still a child. Also, if you do things like buy toys ( ATV, Boats, Jet SKI, etc) and cant pay the rent your also still a child.

Case in point: living at home with momma and you got some stupid SUV with bling bling rims that spin, and the DWP has to keep sending late payment statements because you cant pay the damm bill when it shows up, because you cant make BOTH payments on your custom stereo and phone AND take care of basic bills that show up. But you still look good at the club, but your a penniless, dumb teenager in my book. afro

By that Definition Imp any college student is honestly a teenager since most have there parents pay for college. I am a dichotomy since I am paying my own way through college and as of right now I am still living at home and going to JC.

I guess though I have to agree with you to a certain point though, being on your own is the goal, it kind of makes sense as a determining milestone.
