Seriously, is it just me, or is this week dragging?
I had school today, nothing special, except that we chose our topics for our "Group Study" project. I had been having trouble with my group, which consists of two other girls, to come up with a theme, considering that they had no ideas, and any idea I put forth was shot down with a look of disdain. So right after having my idea of, "Swiss Modern Art," I asked the girls if maybe they would like thinking of a topic, they came up with "Fashion," "Beauty," and the ever so deep, "Models." Seeing that we were running out of time, and that the project consists of a third of our final grade, I suggested we go with Fashion. So our topic for a fifteen page report on anything we want is, "Women's Fashion Trends: Spring/Summer 2008." I can hear you laughing. Olivia!
Whatever. Please, at least we didn't go with one of the other topics groups have been coming up with such as, body language, the cigarette industry, Aids, teen pregnancy, and drug addiction. At least we will be bringing hues of pomegranate and translucent aquas, monochromatic silhouettes, and satin, lots of python print satin. I don't shit know about teen pregnancy, and could give a shit about body language (I prefer words), but I do know a thing or two about Mood boards and fabric swatches. That Summer at Fashion Camp wasn't for nothing (Tom and I spent hours at Neimans).
Here's where I smell difficulty (smells a lot like dead Easter bunnies), when we went in the computer lab to look for some information on the Internet, the girls next to me weren't visiting the Elle or WWD sites, but the site of a discount warehouse, the Swiss version of Sears. As I printed the season's color palette they were perusing rhinestone Lycra tops for the outstanding price of $12.95. I didn't say much and kept to myself. With time I will try and teach them, but it is going to take time and effort and probably some back issues of Vogue, and even then I can't make any promises.
I asked Sam and Dan what I should cook for dinner tonight and they said tacos. They were right on the money, and I am too full to proof read.
The Chung Shot of the Week, is titled "Fash-Chung." (Get it? Sounds like "Fashion!")
