Athena - week 3

On the plane home from France, I overheard a conversation between the people sitting next to me about us. The majority of their conversation was about how silly teenagers are. As a teenager myself, who tends to overreact, I began to wonder how I’m perceived by adults. I often feel out of place amongst people my age, choosing to enjoy the company of adults over “children”. I often write about people my own age taking on adult issues, so listening to their conversation helped me realize that as teenagers, my characters shouldn’t always take themselves too seriously and neither should I.
