I have not forgotten about you my fellow followers! I'm still trying to stick to my word and blog more often .. at least more than last year combined.
I do have something that I need to rant about though .. and that is on "letters." For those of you who are in sororities/fraternities, you would know what that is. Nothing wrong with them .. just .. personally .. I could never understand how people can justify spending $100+ on letters.
Now ... people may argue that there is some sentimental value in it, or maybe pride in the organization that they are in .. but really now?! $100+ for letters for yourself!??! For you to customize it so that it has a couple extra words on it and maybe get a more unique sweater than the standard .. ? Or so you can have a cooler customized sweater than other people and match with someone else?! ... REALLY NOW!?!? REALLY NOW!??!?!
How can you spend so much on something that's probably going to be apart of for your college days and that you're probably hardly even evar going to wear again in the future?! Or let alone spend so much on something that doesn't even really have the durability to last you more than a couple years. At least buy something that is of quality for your $100+ ! Or at least noteworthy designer??? But $100+ for a "at best" American Apparel hoodie with some extra embroidery and stitching and some patches of letters ... NO. NOT WORTH IT.
You guys are probably wondering - why the hell is she so angry over this, but someone dear to me asked for my opinion on his purchase, and seriously .. I could not justify it at all for him to be spending that much. But my reasoning was apparently not valid enough to stop him from his purchase... so minus $100+ he goes. In his defense, he said that I, myself spend a lot of money on handbags .. but really now?! I feel that at least my handbags are worth the money that I invest in it, they don't really depreciate in price, rather they increase in price every year. + my handbags can last me days and years to come .. and I even plan on giving them to my daughter when I have one too, haha (like my mother does for me). c: They may be expensive, but they have great durability, quality of the leathers that they use, and designs that are unique enough to be noteworthy and of safekeeping.
To say the least, it's just a rant. I mean, he can do whatever he wants with his money, but personally, I would never be able to justify spending that much on letters. Some other people may differ, but yeah .. not my swag .. not my steez .. not my thang, haha. Just tryin' to save him from spending what I think is a waste-of-money, haha. Ahh well, what's done is done, but srsly, #THROATCHOP #THROATCHOP #THROATCHOP .
( ^ LOL, if your read this, look at what you have done to me with all your #THROATCHOPs Peanut Butter.)
