When Do They Announce The Winner For The Teen Beach Movie - Surfboard Contest-

How long does it take to learn how to surf?

There was a kid that moved to my neighborhood when I was about 16.  He was my age, but he came from a landlocked state.  See his mom knew that I surfed and wanted him to learn, so of course my mom volunteered me to teach him.  Like most surfers, and especially teenagers, I hated trying to teach somebody how to surf.  Surfing is hard.  Most of the time, the student doesn't listen, comes down to the beach confident they're going to do a Gidget style stance dance on the board and they can write home to their buddies in Nebraska that they "surfed."  Truth is it's much harder than that. But I was stuck, no way out and I knew the kid needed a friend.  So I took him to the beach, then watched my buddies go off for a surf, while I was stuck trying to teach another newbie.  I gave him the usual watch, turn, paddle, do a pushup, don't go to your knee's instructions, and then we got in the water.  Usually I  just swim out with the beginner so I can help them turn the board, and push them into waves, etc.   Nothing new here.  He got pounded.  The salt water stung his eyes, and he coughed a lot, and complained about the taste.  Heard it all before.   After about 30 minutes he was exhausted and ready to be done.  Great I thought. Did my duty, grabbed my board and caught up with my buddies.   We didn't talk much after that, but I used to see him coming down to the beach from time to time.  For days and weeks later I'd check the surf and there he would be, getting pounded, floundering, and wiping out.  I didn't think much of it, except that he was out there at the beach almost every day.  Then it happened about 4 months had transpired and one day I'm walking down the beach after a good surf session, headed home and there I see him in the water,  he turns, paddles, catches a wave, stands up, and starts flying down the line, with a wide stance, he was carving up and down the wave face and in control.  Couldn't believe it.  4 months. everyday. regardless of conditions.  And he was surfing.    That's what it takes.

How do I earn $5 per day from internet?

There are a lot of great answers here that cover ways you can easily make $5 per day on the internet.However, a lot of them require considerable time (like answering surveys) and aren’t particularly rewarding.I’m going to cover 2 forms of online money making that can be completely passive.The first is phone farming:Phone farming is the process of using old smartphones to make money.How do phone make money?Well, they simply run passive data collection apps and video watching apps that pay users to watch playlists.You won’t earn much from phone farming; each device roughly makes about $0.20-$0.40/day, but with a few phones, you can easily earn a few dollars per day.I’ve been phone farming with 7 devices for the last 6 months and earn roughly $40-$50 a month. This isn’t equal to $5 a day, but it’s a start for me.Here’s some proof of earnings:I redeem mostly Amazon gift cards, PayPal, and Bitcoin. However, it’s a nice way to generate some passive income without much work.I’ve written a more in depth phone farming guide I highly recommend checking out if you want to get started with passive phone farming!The second method to help you earn $5 a day online involves affiliate marketing.I’ve only been blogging at This Online World (my blog) for 2 months, and I’ve been able to generate about $70 worth of income from Amazon Affiliates, SiteGround affiliate (web hosting), and various referral programs.Here’s a look at my current traffic for about 2 months:If you can make out this blurry image (sorry, lol), I have just over 5,000 visits in 2 months.Here’s what I’ve earned:Amazon Affiliate:$5.24 + a bit more income once another 2 items finally ship.SiteGround Web Hosting:$50.I’ve also made some chumps of change on my blog by getting bonuses for signing up people on phone farming related websites.Ultimately, here’s what I can say:Generating income on the internet is all about starting somewhere…Just pick an idea, make it work, and maximize it’s efficiency/output before moving on to your new idea.Passive income is especially great: it buys you more free time to work on new income generation ideas.Work smart, not hard. Forget surveys and Amazon MTurk. Find work that is enjoyable and also pays better than $0.1 a survey/task.Thanks for reading, best of luck!

My parents don't let me go chill out on my own and I feel caged. What should I do?

Hello there...I believe I am fit to write the answer as I have suffered, if not as bad a situation, but close enough one.In my college time, I had to ask for permission to go anywhere, while all or most of my friends doesn't even tell their parents they're going out. But seeking permission wasn't my problem at all.I was given a bike , my choice of it of course, but every time I had to take it out, I had to suffer a lecture + fear injection of how I may get killed or get badly hurt in a bike. From my house, the beach is just 5 KM away and I really like going there especially at night at around 8. I love the solitariness. I'll have just one or two other friends with me. I used to come back by 10 o'clock max. I start out late because when I reach home after college it'll be 7.30 PM. I was barred from going out after a few occasions. So weekdays were just college and home for me. Even on weekends, 7 in the evening was the time limit. Never in my four years of college had I stayed in any of my friends home at night or chilled out.I got teased by a lot of friends. It was in college I started enjoying the outdoors but I wasn't fortunate enough.This made me hate my parents. I didn't like coming home at all. I suppressed all my anger, frustration, sadness. I never did anything which almost all of my friends did. I didn't smoke. I never drank. I never went on an unplanned long ride/drive anywhere. I haven't seen how 2 at night looks like outside.The sad part. I recently came to know that they prevented me from going out because they were convinced that was a drunkard. Yes, you read it right.I don't talk a lot at home. I'm quite the silent type.  But I never came home where I was lost out of my senses. Ive always behaved normally. If you have read till this, I want to say that don't lose your time arguing with your parents for they won't bow down for you. Be content with what you have. Get a job outside your city. Enjoy as much you want. As for me I still stay with my parents. I have a job with a little salary. The good part, my parents don't define any limits anymore. Even if they do , I wouldn't care anymore. I've nothing against them, I do take care of them but I wont be chained by them.Patience..... Peace
