Protest
April 4, 2016
What does it mean to be 'cool'?
Chasing trends
Following the pack
Idolizing pop singers
Spending money on the latest fashions
As soon as you catch up, those trends change again
Individuality is sacrificed
Popularity defined by Twitter followers
And Instagram likes
Life is not lived through a phone
Experience what is around you
Experience all the world has to offer
