Christmas and New Year
Christmas
Christmas is a day, a special day, which is celebrated by Christians. It is the birth of Jesus Christ so it is a religous and a cultural celebration. It is the 25th of December and lasts until new year.
The symbols and decorations of Christmas are:
Pine tree, stars, angels, red or green clothes, reindeers, cane sugar, socks, bells, mitletoe, Santa Claus, presents.
New Year
New Year is the time, whenwe begin to a new calendar. It is commonly 1st of January but some contries use different calendar, so their new year is different from us. We celebrate, eat and have fun during the night, which connects 31st December to 1st January and we give presents each other.
Actually new year hasn't got its own symbol or decoration. The people who celebrate new year, took the decorations and symbols from Christmas.

Teen Smokers
Teen Smokers
The number of teen smokers is decreasing day by day, except teen smokers in Turkey. The number of teen smokers in Turkey increased in comparisiom for the other countries.. Have you ever thought why it is not a deal for us anymore?
Teen in Turkey have stressful, fast and hard lives. The hard conditions in Turkey is getting more- because of thr issues in Turkey and teens are more stressed, but these are not the only reasons for smoking. For example finding solutions to their problems or trying to feel better about their heart breakings. Also some of them smoke to be cool. We got used to these problems because we see teen smokers in a lot of series and in social media. Tumblr, Instagram and Twitter that we call "cool stuff" make us more curious about smoking and in a while we just see them and did not pay attention that much. If you look closer, you will understand, that these are big issues.
The age of beginning to smoke is between is between 11-18 year old. The research of Türk Kalp Çalışması showed 20% of the smokers are between 11-14 years old and the 80% are under 21 years old. A research, made with elemantary school kids found these results. The percentage of whole boy smokers of elemantary school 11.5 and the girls are 1.9, which is less than boys but still a disappointing number. And the 95% of elemantary school kids know the brands the brands of cigarettes. They need not know the brands.
These results leading us to cunclusion. At first we need to inform teenagers before adults. Teens are our future. Also teens should learn we were not born to be tortured by life. Smoking is not the key. Smoking becomes a torture by itself. Do not be prominent and live your life full.
