"It's the new THANG!"

Naomi Heu, a junior at North High School, who is currently active in band, expresses her excitement and love for the newest trend that has been spreading as quick as wild fire. It is none other than silly bands!

Silly bands made their first appearance in November 2008. It was easily sold in the southern parts of U.S.A., making silly bands a big hit. Soon enough, the trend spread all over the country (north, east and west) and exposed the wonders of silly bands.

The purpose of silly bands is to collect and trade them with friends. You may also keep them for yourself and wear them however you like.

Heu was willing to be interviewed and answered some questions that were prepared to be asked. "They're actually really fun, awesome looking and legit. Whoever created silly bands is pretty creative. Just look at it, bracelets shaped as animals, trees, people...it makes such a big hit. Now, everyone loves them." Heu says.

Not only is it popular within high school students, but also middle school and elementary students. All students are all over them!

So why are silly bands so popular? Heu says, "Honestly, I don't know either, but just look at them. The way they're made, it's unique and one of a kind. It's the new thang! Make sure you write thang and not thing."

Heu is looking forward to seeing more people wear silly bands and join in on the fun. She also exclaimed, "I want some John Cena silly bands. That would be so awesome." As you can tell, Heu's journey of silly bands will not end here. If you haven't started your journey on this silly bands path yet, I suggest you to do so. It may just open a whole new world to you.
