because i have nothing better to write about..

so before i started delivering cookies i had been on the ut campus maybe twice. now, unfortunately i frequent it on a normal basis, sometimes 3 and 4 times in a day (uggh.). but we already know how i feel about ut students -cheap, lazy, good for nothing...oh sorry...back to what i was saying. you would think that ut, being in the smack dab center of austin which is known for its diversity and eclectic nature, would not have 70% of the girls walking around in the exact same outfit. so, if you are a girl, want to attend ut, and look exactly like all the other girls, you only need 2, sometimes 3 things:
the staple item: the nike running shorts style TM 3IN. this particular short comes in a variety of colors so you could buy 7 pairs and wear them each day of the week and trick yourself into thinking you were wearing something "different" each day. sadly, i think this may be the case for many girls. nike makes a lot of different running shorts and ive seen some girls try and get away with wearing a slightly different style which is maybe them trying to make a statement...but really, the other girls are looking at you and thinking..."nope, she doesn't have the right ones on.."the shorts are paired with a tshirt of your choice. a popular selection is one containing greek lettering of some kind showcasing your membership to kappa, chi-o, delta etc. kinda like the one i have provided as an example however this one looks like it might have been from the 80s and im not sure why exactly there is tissue paper coming out of the top. and even better than just a sorority shirt is a date party or formal shirt b/c that proves that you're popular with boys as well as your "sisters." another acceptable choice would be one of those obnoxious tshirts from tylers...ya know, the ones that say "TYLER'S" in ginormous letters on the back? this also proves that you go to ut bc you buy your clothes from the drag...maybe bc youre lazy and you can walk there from the dorm...just a guess.
finally, the third garment piece is the black leggings. i did not provide an image as these are optional based on the weather. when the temp drops a bit it is essential to put these on and then go about the normal attire by putting the nike shorts over the leggings. put on the properly coordinated t shirt and you're ready.

so theres your lesson for the day. how to dress like a female ut student. and honestly, im not exaggerating when i say 70%. when a nice day comes around, there is just a sea of nike shorts and t shirts on the campus. and at first maybe i thought it was just me noticing it until the topic came up at work for some reason and new ppl would join the conversation and without having to prompt or anything someone would be like, "oh the nike shorts? yeah, with the stripes down the side? oh and with the leggings underneath?" come to find out, one guy actually dressed up as a ut girl for halloween. what did he wear? the shorts...the leggings...the tshirt.

and maybe its just me but i always think its a bit awkward when you're wearing something and walk by someone or sit down next to someone and you happen to have on the same shirt or skirt or whatever. and this has to happen on a frequent basis...what humors me is when i see a group of girls walking together and they all have it on. its like they were getting ready and said, no im going to wear the black shorts, so you wear the pink ones...tell kimmie to wear blue...and dont forget your flip flops and coach purse. no, i cant think of a time when i actually saw a girl running in this attire..that would be silly.

i could probably go on but i think ive made my point...
