put them on YouTube. You can type the words “morning
5 routines” in YouTube or in Google to find many videos
showing how teens get ready to go to school. They usually
start with a good-looking girl or boy getting up. The first thing
they do is surf the web and chat online. Then, they have
breakfast, brush their teeth, have a shower and get dressed.
During the video, the teen talks to the camera and describes
his or her actions. In addition, the teen uses certain products
for his or her morning routines. In their videos, many teens
