Summer holiday fun

As a teenager,  I am a highly active and busy person, which means that I do not have so much time to get a rest or sleep during the day. However, since I have been exercising for all those years, I have got used to those everyday valuable pastimes.
Particurarly, I do not often keep on with the same summer activities in the whole summer, so I need to take up a "summer hobby". So the exceptional summer hobby I am passionate about is hiking. I commonly arrange to hike some mountains, during those two months when we do not have so much stuff to do, with my mates for a whole day (10-12 hours).
Firstly, we start hiking the huge mountain at 7:00 in the morning, since we all hate trying to cover all that extremely long distance in the heat. Then, we certainly have some food like bananas or even to drink a small amount of hydrolytes in case water cannot give us all the energy we need. Finally, when we achieve our goal, which by all means is to arrive at the top of the massive mountain we call my uncle, who is a hiking lover, but does not have the time to do it with us, in order to give us a lift to our homes, in order to have a rest for the next day.
I would surrely reccoment that sport, since it helps you keep fit and tone your muscles. Most importanly, it provides you with an insane physical fitness, which involves a very big amount of food after all that fatigue. Finally, a real example of that is my self.       

Face to face communication

   
     These days social media are all over the world, and many teens prefer to communicate via them, but it seems like it has started to effect to our own relationships.
    
     Face to face conversation seems more fun than texting from the phone.During face to face communication you can see the other person'expression and their body launguage but on the other hand sometimes it's pretty hard to find the time to meet with your friends, and maybe you will not be able to communicate with them.

    Social media are so helpful to find someone and it helps if you're short of time, but you can easily get addicted and never meet with your friends.Actually can change your relationships and cteate trust issues.

    Both ways of communicating have advantages and disadvantages but it's good to use both of them in moderation, and never get addicted. 

Social media and communication of face to face

                  Many teens have conversation with their friends by social media or face to face. Here are some advantages and disadvantages of those two types of communication.                                                           Face to face communication is very good because you spend time socializing, talking to people, making friends and not looking all the time at a screen. Face to face communication also has some drawbacks like the fact that it is difficult to meet people who live far away.                                                     Social media are very good because they are convenient if you are short of time and can also communicate with people that are far away. But social media have some disadvantages like the fact that it is easy to get addicted to it so you probably never meet 'real' people.                                                         If you are a sociable person, it is probably better to have conversations face to face, but if you are a person that loves chatting on the phone, you are better of having conversations via social media.
