Don’t get hot under the collar

MY IDEA OF BEING COOL

Most tweens and teens these days try their best to look cool. I have heard my peers say about someone, ‘He is so cool’. Does it have something to do with the temperature or is it about what he is wearing? Or is it about something more exciting?

I believe being cool is about being respected by your peers/friends. I know every person tries to look cool by showing off their new and expensive boots, expensive jacket or even an expensive mobile phone. I repeat, on purpose, the word ‘expensive’ because I want to let you know that an expensive new thing need not necessarily make you look cool.

I am not against buying expensive stuff but all I want to say is that wearing something that is comfortable and looks good on you really matters. I once bought shoes with really fat tongues to look cool but I certainly did not feel good.

So how do we look and feel cool at the same time?
