Buuttt I intend to make up my absence by flooding you all with tons and tons of posts. :)
Now on to some Blogworthy stuff...
So ummm, have ya'll heard about Christina Aguilera being the new face of Barbie? Yeah, that's right, since Barbie will officially be celebrating her 50th birthday in 2009, the heads over at Mattel have decided that Barbie needs an updated, revamped look and they've selected Christina Aguilera as the perfect face model! Blonde, petite, sexy... Ok makes sense. Go Stina!!! I've always thought that she was pretty... It will be interesting to see how this "new model" phases out :)Still I can't help but feeling a bit outdated myself. So young, yet so old. Somehow in my 22 years I've managed to see a Black man be elected President, survive Y2K, witness the U.S. go to war with Iraq, live through a Depression firsthand (actually, still living through that one), witness 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, and now witness the revival of Barbie. Damn I feel old lol. But at least I have some great stories to tell the future grandkids ;)
Editor's Note: Don't you think that Mattel should select a new model for all the nationalities? If Christina Aguilera is going to be the mold for "Caucasian Barbie", I nominate Shakira for "Latin Barbie", and... I gotta get back to you on who should be the mold for Black Barbie. That one requires some consideration haha

O and yeah I think shakira should be a barbie too :-] I think they should have more range of barbies tho like a light , medium , and darker tone of each race. i saw kimora's barbie lol... there is surely a larger range than when we were lil girls... :-] I like this post !
