To each there own.

That's part of the reason I think she's content to stay in Texas. Unless she goes to one of those liberal arts colleges on the East Coast known to harbor rich kids and socialites she'd really be out of place at a traditional campus where kids are more worried about midterms and finals than high designer clothes. I'm wondering if she doesn't already feel terribly isolated. There can't be too many people her age who have the resources to not work or go to school and can chill with her all day.
I agree her blog would be more interesting from a college student perspective. She could have maybe demonstrated how she stayed true to her style while being practical in a college environment.
