Have teens got enough free time?

"Teenagers don't have lots of free time, and they waste it"

I agree with this statement because teens don't have lots of free time and this little free time they have,  they waste it playing online games or watching television.

Teenagers and their free time.

'' Teenagers do not have a lot of free time, and they waste it.'' What do you think of this statement.

I agree with this statement that teenagers do not have a lot of free time because they may have a lot of homework  but when they have, they waste it on computers and television instead of doing something more creative.

~Flick books~

  A week ago in our English lesson, we met a page where we mentioned flick books. A flick book is a book with a series of  pictures that vary gradually from one page to the next, so that when the pages are turned rapidly, the pictures appear to animate by simulating motion or some other change. Flick books are often illustrated books for children, but they can appeal to adults, as well. Flick books are not always separate books, but may appear as an added feature in ordinary books or magazines, often in the page corners. Software packages and websites are also available that convert digital video files into custon flick books. 

Here's a flick book video!! It's amazing!!!

My secondary Hobby

First of all, my second Hobby that I do when I have free time is doing freestyle with a football. It involes hitting the ball as many times as possible , not letting it fall down and of course do some tricks with it in mid-air! I ussually practise at my neighbourhood and sometimes home. Also you don't need a lot of space for that.When I'm doing it i don't want anyone to interrupt me, because you lose control and of course the ball will fall down.The most fantastic thing is the feeling when you can finally be able to complete a new trick which it's very difficult and that you've managed to do it after a lot of effort. I used to do some easy tricks about 3-4 years ago but the last 3 months I've been practising to learn some new skills. It also helps me with football! The inspiration that led me to do that was my main hobby of course. It was football and some youtube videos as well! I do it about 3-4 times a week and I'm getting better day by day , but I'm still  at the semi-begginer level. My freestyle idols are two! The first one is Andrew Hederson who's from England and also he's the world's champion best freestyler in the air freestyle. The other one is Sean Garnier from France who's the panna master!I've managed to learn some new tricks from some tutorials at the Youtube, but still I want to get better and someday make my own Youtube videos!

Here are some videos about Andrew Hederson and Sean Garnier:
