Blah

Attending SMU has been a unique experience for me. It has allowed me that little peek into the lives of upper class suburban America. I don't hate rich people, but being at SMU, i've come to notice that a lot of kids are less individualistic and more inclined to spend more money so that they can fit in with everyone else. Apparently, if you're rich, there are several items which you absolutely must have and are almost standard issue.

1. An Apple iPod - We all want one, but not all of us are fortunate enough to own one. This piece of hardware runs about $250 and while decent mp3 players are out there that will cost you half the price or even less, everyone prefers to buy the iPod - even though nobody in the universe has enough songs to fill one of those bad boys up.

2. Ugg Boots - Ugg boots are what girls are wearing these days. Even though most guys hate them, chicks seem to enjoy wearing these sheep-skin-made shoes with miniskirts. If it's warm enough to wear a miniskirt, then isn't this defeating the purpose of the boot altogether? Plus, they're hella ugly.

3. Popped collars - A lot of guys seem to like popping up their collars. Other guys enjoy wearing 2 or 3 collared shirts at a time. If they're feeling especially prep, some guys even wear 2 or 3 shirts WITH popped collars (ooooooo..). To me, this is weird, cause it just wears out your clothes faster and creates more laundry for you to do. Do people like doing this because it shows that they are have so much extra money that they can afford extra laundry detergent and quarters for laundry....?

4. Gucci/Prada/Louis Vuitton handbags - I dunno about everyone else, but I walk around with my blue Jansport backpack, and that seems to do the job just fine. $25, done. There's sooo much more people could do with the extra money they could save on these handbags.... like buy real FOOD.... or Mavs ticktes, whichever works.

So yeah, if you like own any of the things above, then.... This post was totally a joke or something. And you fell for it! Haha!
