I remembered some people who lived across the street from our home as we were being taken away. When I was a teenager, I had many after-dinner conversations with my father about our internment.

Father, Away, Some

Love, Death, About

I was not popular in school, and I was definitely not a ladies' man. And I had a very painful adolescence, because it was all very strange to me.

In the early 1940s, as a young teenager, I was utterly appalled by the racist and jingoist hysteria of the anti-Japanese propaganda.

Some, Ants, 1940s

I haven't seen my face since I started growing my beard, which was when I was a teenager, almost; I never shaved. So I don't really know what I look like. Richie Havens

I think when I first straightened my hair, I was a teenager. I don't believe that I was consciously doing it to look white or to be on television. It never crossed my mind.

Doing, Reason, Some

At the age of 16 I was already dreaming of having a baby because I felt myself to be an adult, but my mum forbid it. Right now, I feel like a teenager and I want to have fun for one or two more years before starting a family. Milla Jovovich

Teen, Before, Mum

Our job as friends, mentors, parents, and writing coaches is not to write anyone's college essay. That's cheating.

Gentle editing and proofreading are allowed. Kate Klise

Trust, College, Student

Thought, Jazz, Crappy

My Life, Upset, Very

Note, Sassy, Arrested
