it was a popular british comedian harry enfield who perfectly captured the essence of those difficult teenage years in his character "Kevin the teenager". I rocked with laughter rading how on the eve of his 13th birthday, kevin and his parents were counting down the second till midnight, when the birthday boy began to change before everybody's eyes . his hair became long and greasy; his skin broke out in spots; his clothes became scruffy and ill-fitting and he lost his ability to speak properly. "I hate you. You are ruining my life"-that's what he shouted. Quite a recognizable character, i should say
Let me think... in my fourth year at school, i had this top from a shop in the Kings Road in Chelsea, which was dead trendy at the time. I thought i wad really cool. I wore it with turned-up jeans and Doc Martens. Last Christmas my mum showed me the photo of me wearing the top and jeans and i was really shocked
As long as my mother controls the purse she comes with me to buy clothes. But she never insists.She knows much about fashions and i guess, doesn't want me to dress in styles that are too old for them. She understands that i have changed.
