Please Explain.
Hokay.
So, despite being female, I do not get these two apparently normative female practices on our campus (one more so than the other, granted).
TNA Bag + Purse
Why are you carrying a massive bag and often times another sizable bag that is your purse? Can you not carry all of the stuff in your purse in your massive bag? I do...it's much easier that way.
Stilettos + Ice
Thursday this week (I think it was Thursday...anyway) I saw two girls teetering in stilettos of some kind (one boots, one shoes) and it was icy out. It was the middle of the day. It was icy. Said foot coverings have poor traction.
Esplain!

I've wondered about the requirement for humongous bags for a long time....

I don't understand the concept of huge purses either but let me point out what I have never understood.
Carrying a backpack AND a purse.
I've never understood this. Can't you just transfer the contents of your puse into your backpack and carry that instead of holding both? If you just carry a wallet and keys in your purse, stick it in your bag or pocket. There's no need to be excessive.

No, TNA or Lulubag.
I have a lulubag, but I use it either as a backpack (rarely) or a camera bag...and I keep all of my other stuff inside (i.e. don't carry a purse too)

omg I LMAO when I see girls in heels in the winter around campus. What's the point of that? It's funny watching them try and walk from point A to point B. You'll see all the normal people walking past them so fast, and they're just struggling behind everyone else hahahahaha! I don't get why some girls dress up and go over the top at all to come to school.
In the winter i'm almost always in comfy sweats and a sweater, far too cold to dress up lol.

But if each of those stilletto wearing, jean skirt sporting girls started wearing hoodies and track pants with real winter boots, dont you think a good number of guys would wonder where all the hot chicks went

I would assume that they're trying to stay hot rather than freeze their asses off.
