A change in the blog post.

Just changing it up for this week! This was a project for my college writing class on teen drinking and smoking. For this project we decided to find out why teens between the ages of 13 and 19 smoke and drink. Once we found out our information we decided to make an iMovie as our final product. With our final project done and looking back on the assignment and what our group learned, we found out that age matters, why one smokes or drinks varies, and who they do it with varies. We came to find out age matters because the younger you start the more likely you are to make that a habit. Reasons why teens smoke or drink varied from "just for fun" to "because my friends do" to even "because I'm bored" this to me is definitely a scary thing to be hearing from anyone! Teens also told us who they tend to smoke or drink with, some said just friends, others say anyone, and a hand full said by themselves. Over all this was a stressful but interesting topic to work with just because we had to involve so many more people to accomplish this final product.
