From the Paper:

"Teenage years are often described as exciting since they are the most fun filled, full of adventure and learning. This maturation period is also the perfect time to build the foundations of one's future; it is undoubtedly a delicate period of life where one can either construct or destruct the awaiting future. But most importantly constitutes to the major part of a person's memory because of all the crushes, affairs, broken hearts and the pleasures of falling in love which one can never forget. People who have passed adolescence and the complexities of life may recognize their teenage days as tumultuous, but anyone who is still a teenager describes adolescence as the best moments of their life.
