Teens Making Money Online


If you are like me you dont really feel like going out and getting a job. But teens always end up working at grocercy stores and resturants making minimum wage. Even though we don't have to pay bills and have to depend on ourselves we like to have money to go out and spend on stuff. There are many ways to get the same amount of money with less work. The internet is a great place for anyone to make money. You just need to find a place that is legit and you really get the money.

The first way is actually by having a blog. You can use the website blogger.com. It is a free blogging website. But there is a catch. You have to be 13 to have a blog. There are many ad companies that pay you to put ads on your blog. The ads are how you get the money from a blog.
As a warning DO NOT USE Google Adsense. After making about 30 dollars they sent me an e-mail saying that they terminated my account because of the amount of money I made within a few days and they could not afford to keep me on there. So I strongly advise you NOT TO USE adsense.
Another way is through a website called wrinsiders.com (which is the Weekly Reader website). This website is for kids and teens who are looking to make some money. On this website you take surveys for other companies and you get points. These points can be cashed in for prizes and gift cards. I have been using this website for years and have already gotten over a hundred dollars in gift cards. You can get visa gift cards that can be used anywhere.
Another great website I use that allows you to get money also is from youdata.com. You need the following reward code to join. Go to http://www.youdata.com/join/peanut2 . This website is legit and you do get the money from it.

There is also a website where you can search for free stuff and online jobs. The website is called volition.com . This is where I found weekly reader. You need to read the reviews on the site to make sure the website is legit and that you will actually get the money you earned.

Banning Smoking

Many people smoke and think they have a right to. The truth is they do, but they shouldn't. There is nothing cool about it. You hurt yourself and everyone around you. If you like hurting people than it is right for you.

When I was about 12 years old I watched my grandma die from lung cancer, which was caused by smoking. She smoked for over 50 years. She lived for a little over a year after she was diagnosed with lung cancer. In the beginning of December 2005 she went into remisson. We hoped that it was over. A week before Christmas we got a phone call saying she had collapsed in Wal-Mart. After all the test they ran they found out that the cancer had gone to the brain. She went though a lot of radiation. They said she had the maximum amount a person could have. She even had more chemo therapy. About Feburary they told us the chemo was not working and there was nothing else they could do for her. She was the stongest woman I know. She over- came so many things in her life and this was the harderst even though she lost the fight.

I know that in certain parts of some states it is banned but it should be all over the United States. So before you pick up that next cigarette think about how it will hurt your friends and family and yourself.

How to Play Tennis

Tennis is one of the funnest sports to play (once you get good at it). You can play singles, doubles, and so on. The points go 15, 30, 40. If you have scored and the other person has not then you say 15 love if you are the server. Always say your score first. When you serve you have to get the ball in the square opposite the side you are serving. There is a line in the middle of the court on the base line. Stand behind the base line and to the side of that line to serve.

In singles if you hit the ball into the long rectangles or out of the court it is considered out. Whoever hit that ball does not get the point the other person does. If you are playing doubles and you hit the ball into the long rectangles on the side of the court it is still
considered "in" so then the ball is still in play.
