YOUR SAY: Summer jobs

Summer is coming and many teenagers are trying to find a job for the season. At the age of sixteen you can start working. Summer jobs are great for people at this age because you can earn your own money and thus buy any whim that you have. You can also save it in the bank or at home in a not so little money box. It can be a help for your parents, specially with the economic crisis, if you can pay for your clothes, phones...



A job gives you more than just money, though. It's a source of experience and helps you to develop more responsability. It also introduces you into the adult world without being too harsh (this also depends on the job).

But the bad thing about trying to find a job as a teenager is that in many places employees are asked for experience which, at this young age, we don't have (at least legally). That is a downer, as well as the fact that not everyone has a driving license or a motorbike (sadly, that's my case, and I can't just say that I have a bike to go to work...). Also, some employers make the most of teenagers' situation with low wages and a lot of working hours.



The most typical summer jobs for a teenager is waiter, working at a camping, a shop, a supermarket... There are also many people who work as babysitters, teachers for children, taking care of or walking dogs... There are many things you can do! 

Personally, I like to work in the summer and earn money. I may have too many whims and that's a way to get what I want with my own effort. I'll work as a waitress this summer, I wonder how that will be!

YOUR SAY: Life in outer space

Since the ancient times, humanity has been wondering about one question: are we on our own? We've always looked up at the stars for the answer and, thanks to science, we now know that, if there is indeed other forms of life, they must be in outer space.

Stars are millions of kilometers away, but yet scientists keep searching for similarities between the Milky Way and other galaxies. There is a possibility of the existence of other stars like the sun that could have a system of planets orbiting around them. That leads to think that there could be another planet with similar conditions to the Earth where different forms of life could have developed.



We've made them go by the name of aliens, and we usually think of them as little green human-like creatures with a big head and weird eyes. Cinema has portrayed them many times, and the contact with them always seems to end up with devastation on Earth and war against an alien force that is usually completely lethal and more advanced than us, humans.

There are also a lot of people who believe they have seen UFO's, alien's spaceships.



In my opinion, I think that aliens exist. By aliens I mean different forms of life from ours and the ones that inhabit in our planet. I think that in all the infinity of the universe it would be very difficult to be the only creatures alive. Will we ever meet them? Probably not. At least not yet. Meanwhile, we should take care of the Earth, instead of worrying about other planets.
