selling cool

I honestly enjoyed reading the stories on convergences this time. I honestly thought they were pretty interesting. To start off with, I had never heard of "coolhunters" before until I read about them. It talked about Baysie and DeeDee who were coolhunters and I think that is such a cool job to have. To go out and see what people are wearing, if it is cool, and if it would sell. I think that would be really fun but obviously really hard to get that specific job. In my opinion I think it would be incredibly hard to figure out what is considered "cool" and what isn't because every person has their own opinion. I don't know. Another thing I thought was pretty cool was how they talked about the hoodie and Rocky. This interested me because the Rocky movies are my favorite movies. I learned how the hoodie came to be which I had never really learned about before until now and how it was partiall brought about by Rocky Balboa. I also never knew how many stereotypes there were when someone was wearing a hoodie. I think it is crazy to judge someone based on an article of clothing they are wearing but we are humans judge people every day and will judge for the rest of time. But one thing I do not understand and probably will never understand is how can they put a label on what is "cool"? Because I believe it is each and every individuals opinion to decide what is cool, not one specific group of people. My advice to everyone is wear what YOU want to wear, not what everyone else is wearing because what you wear and do makes up who you are somewhat. You just have to be yourself.
