I am scared of p-chem. Literally scared. It is not only difficult, but sometimes it makes almost no sense at all. This is the first class where I have sat in lecture and thought “this makes little to no sense.” I guess I’ll have to try even harder.
Back to it, then.
In a rare move, Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (NYSE: ANF) announced details on an upcoming line of clothing for their “abercrombie kids” stores in their press release this past Wednesday. The “innovative line of young women’s clothing” from the popular retailer would prominently feature the words “jailbait” on a variety of styles, cuts, and colors. “We feel that the new JB line from abercrombie kids resonates with the overarching brand image of the attitude and individuality of a younger generation, coupled with the sensibilities of classic style,” said Bert Giusepe, Abercrombie’s director of public relations. In response, upper middle class fathers across the nation issued a collective groan.
*drums indicating punchline* I, of course, am kidding in that last paragraph - I’ll be here all week! But seriously, I’m actually going to be here all week. In order to jump-start my writing and journaling routine (or, in the past few months, lack thereof), I am embarking on a journey with you all to write an update once a day for a week. If it goes really well, perhaps for a month.
I have had many many ideas for journal entries during the past summer, but have never been near enough to a computer to begin writing and outline my ideas. Sometimes I think I should carry a pad to memo these ideas to myself, but I know that, like my camera, I would never seem to have access to the pad when I needed it most. With this project, I hope to pull some old ideas from the corners of my memory, but also to hold on to some new ones in time to write them down. I really enjoy this space where I can commune with other tumbledryers about just about anything, and I look forward to giving us something to talk about.
