The Teens

What interests the teenagers now?

Studies? Maybe. Some say for boys its video games, and girls its themselve, or maybe the other way round. Some say its the latest gadgets. Some say its the hot chicks and cute boys. Sex? Definitely.

All of the point above sums up into one, acceptance that is. Everyone wants to get accepted by the community, friends and family. You want to be 'someone' in the community don't you? But before teenagers get a real job, whats their effort to get accepted?

They are up to date with the latest entertaiment news. They won't miss a single party or gatherings. They get the latest gadgets. Playstation, PSP, iPod, iPhones, Mp3 4 5 6 7 8, Blackberries. Boys get the latest kicks, Nike airforce, Nike SB, Adidas Originals, Onitsuka Tiger. And girls maximize their sex appeal, they dressed themselves beautifully.

And these make them the "most money spent" group of people.

So being a smart teenager, me and my sister decided to make some money out of this group of people. Fashion Around Town was first started by my sister. Basically they're selling girls stuff. You can find dresses, blouses, tees, skirts and bottoms there at a very reasonable price. And with the guide of my sister, I've started another website which basically sells only Boys fashion goods, from caps to shirts. You can visit us at Rockin' The Streets.

Of course we cannot live on this for our whole life. It's just a website to get extra pocket money as a student. So what I'm gonna do if I want to continue to target this group of people? For me, I've decided to go for Product designing.

What is Product design?

Product design can be defined as the idea generation, concept development, testing and manufacturing or implementation of a physical object or service. Product Designers conceptualize and evaluate ideas, making them tangible through products in a more systematic approach. The role of a product designer encompasses many characteristics of the marketing manager, product manager, industrial designer and design engineer. ( Source from wikipedia )

To be honest, I'm not quite sure what it is YET. But all I know I get to design Toys, Shoes, Shirts, Bags and etc. Enough for me to start my own brand/label that I always wanted. So before I've found any other courses that is better than this, imma stick to this.
