Daily Problems that an LIM Girl Experiences

The past couple of weeks I have spent an excessive time at LIM.  You may be thinking, wow, she really likes her school!  Wrong.  I'm only here because LIM desperately needs a technology update considering we are still using 1990s Dell computers with programs that were clearly made for a Mac.  Which brings me to my first problem...

1.  The Technology

All you visual majors understand the struggle.  Four classes:  four different programs, only accessable via computers that belong in a museum at the rate technology is evolving.  How the fuck do we still have computers that rely on Internet Explorer.  This isn't 1998 anymore.  If you are going to require us to use programs that we can't even buy, i.e. Visual Retailing, we should be using these programs on the most up to speed devices.  I shouldn't have to sit at my computer screen diddling my mouse for a solid 10 minutes because my cursor is "loading".  I get it, Macs are expensive, but so is the class that I am basically self teaching myself anyways...

2.  The Professors & The Classes

I can barely count on one hand the amount of solid professors I've had here.  Shout out to Deming and Lueders for keeping it real.  Other than that, between all my gen-eds, I've pretty much taken the same class, five different ways!  Three cheers to wasting time & money!  

Classic Situation:  Getting into a very emotional, completely off topic conversation where every bitch has to chime in their 2 cents like they are fucking philosophers.  Prenups, marriage, abortion, ethics, PETA (fashion girl problems).. the list goes on.  I mean, what do you expect I guess when you force 10 girls and 5 gay guys into a room together...

3.  The Math Department

Instead of signing up for classes, its more like, signing up for accents!  I don't mean to offend anybody, but perhaps we should hire teachers that speak English, especially when we are learning god damn z-scores, standard deviations, and confidence intervals.  Because in the age of computers, calculators, and technology, we are totally going to need to know how to do this...  And if you need help, you can always go to the gossip Math Center.  I am not kidding you, I mind my own business when I'm doing my homework, but I can't help but hear the entire sex lives of the girls sitting at the table next to me.

4.  The Fashions

Ironic how we go to fashion school and yet I walk down the hallways and at least once a day think to myself "What is that?"  Now, I totally understand I am not one to judge.. but I'm judging anyways.  The difference is that I know my fashion isn't up to par, and TBH, I really don't give a fuck.  Sorry but ain't nobody got time for dresses for 8 AM classes.  PS I've been saying wayyyyy too many girls wearing chains these days. Ladies, you are not a dog.  You are not 2chainz.  And (normally) I see these on white girls.  Just no.  You look ghetto.

5.  The Events

LIM, also can be referred to as "Camp LIM" because ever since the fucking scavenger hunt and boat cruise at Freshman Year Orientation, this place is exactly like summer camp circa ten years ago.  Casino night, body revolutions, drag shows, stupid group meetings, and the infamous LIM Palooza which includes street games, and an excuse to get high and get free food.

6.  The People

Don't get me wrong, I've met some pretty cool peeps here, shout out to yall.  BUT the majority of time I'm at school I hit it and quit it.  Lately I've been whoring myself out in the saunas or iceboxes of the overheated / under heated computer labs (they say life is like a box of chocolates right?!)  where I am prone to overhearing multiple dumb conversations.  Many topics include:  boyfriend/boy drama, friend drama, the latest Chanel bag, Kim Kardashian/Kimye, refusing to go to Brooklyn, how you want to be a stylist and nothing else (good luck with that), how you want to be a buyer but you can't do math (good luck with that, being a buyer isn't about shopping) and/or the sick club you went to on Friday (btw Greenhouse is not cool anymore).  I've also heard people say the dumbest things, like how "American" is a language.  K.  For real, now I understand what it was like to go to an all girls high school, because I am pretty much at one!!  Only at LIM do girls go into the bathroom  to check themselves out when they go to school with a bunch of other girls... like why do you care?? 




And finally, the most ultimate LIM problem:  When gay guys have a better body, better sass, and better cat walk then you.
