"Sleep"

        Sleep is very important especially for teenagers. A teenager needs between nine to ten hours of sleep each night. A normal adult needs around seven to eight hours of sleep. Not getting enough sleep each night can affect your day in a negative way. For instance, not getting enough sleep could cause you to be sleepy throughout the day. A person who is lacking sleep wouldn't be able to think or convey their thoughts in a clear manner. Another negative effect of lack of sleep is the loss of energy. When a person doesn't get the amount of sleep that he or she needs, they have the tendency to be more sleepy the following day. If they are trying to complete a task that they are not interested in, they would slowly begin to doze off. They may even go to sleep if they aren't disturbed by anything around them. Being sleepy would cause them to move slower. It would also cause them to have slower reactions.
        Not getting the required amount of sleep each night will cause the thinking capability of that person to be much slower than that of a person who has had a full nights rest. Another effect is that they wouldn't know how convey their ideas in a very clear and understandable way so that everyone would be able to understand. You would most likely be completely lost of confused when you are trying to complete an assignment. You would stare into blank space and not be able to fully comprehend the things that are going on around you. Completing simple tasks would be difficult to do because your body is not energized. You would have to struggle throughout the day. When you sleep, your body is being reenergized. Without sleep, your body doesn't have all the energy it needs to function properly.
