An Open Letter To Victoria's Secret

To whom it may concern,

I think I am speaking on every girls' behalf when I say that we were all overturned at the announcement that Victoria's Secret would be discontinuing their swim line to focus on athletic wear. I applaud this brave move of yours, however, I can't help but wonder if you are aware of your biggest competitors in the athletic industry, such as Lulu Lemon, Nike, Under Armour or Fabletics? As it appears that you will have to compete to stay in the running against these major companies, you were already in first place for your swimwear, so why change it up?

Victoria's Secret's swimwear is worn by women of all ages and every shape and size. What is so unique about your bathing suits is that instead of just selling an extra small, small, medium or large, there are cup sizes to ensure a perfect fit for one's specific body type. This is not an easy feat.

Over the years I have invested quite a bit of my money on VS swimwear, and I had every intention on continuing my loyalty to your company. Unfortunately, with the termination of your swim line, you will be losing a lot of my business, along with many of the girls my age.

Each spring we look forward to the new swim line and going to the stores to try on our favorite picks. With the elimination of your swimwear, we will now be forced to purchase online from leading swim wear companies over seas to match the quality of Victoria's Secret. This is quite a hassle considering the fact that we cannot just go to the local retailer to make sure we're getting something that fits right before buying. Not to mention the cost of it all and possible returns and exchanges.

Your swimwear was comfortable, affordable and trendy. Please consider bringing it back for the sanity of myself and the majority of the female population.

Sincerely,

A concerned female

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
