THursday.
She can't even lip-synch well.
From Page Six:
Elizabeth Wurtzel has sworn off writing! The whiny author of "Prozac Nation" told pals at a wedding in Queens last weekend, "I am going to Yale Law School right now. But I never actually want to practice. I just am going. It's not like anyone accused me of ever being a good writer, so why not law school?" Wurtzel isn't worried about having to pay back student loans. "If you don't ever make any money and become, like, a janitor, then they forgive your loans. I swear," she said. Wurtzel might have a rude awakening in three years when she graduates
Go Lizzy, go! I enjoyed your self-indulgent battle with depression and your addiction to snorting ritalin, and I can't wait to hear about how you got through Yale while pouting, crying, and batting your eyes. God, I love her.
Oh, and Jenna? From the Wash Post:
First daughter Jenna Bush, who put her career plans on hold while campaigning to reelect her father, has decided to live in Washington and plans to teach at a District public school that serves low-income children. The White House would not release details yesterday, but we've learned that she has applied to teach at Elsie Whitlow Stokes Community Freedom Public Charter School in the Mount Pleasant/Columbia Heights neighborhood.The school's founder and executive director, Linda Moore, wouldn't confirm Bush's employment, saying: "We don't discuss the relationship between a prospective employee and the school until we have a formal agreement. This is not something I'm at liberty to discuss."
The Elsie Whitlow Stokes school has 250 pupils enrolled in kindergarten through sixth grade, features immersion classes in Spanish and French, and emphasizes community service. Its children, who are largely Hispanic and African American, visit soup kitchens and participate in an annual walk for the homeless."They learn who's homeless in this country and who's hungry in the world," Moore told us. "We emphasize preparation for citizenship. We emphasize increasing students' knowledge of other cultures. We are preparing them to be leaders in the community."
Ooooo, Jenna is in my hood. I had a glorious time living a few blocks from the school and also spent time there doing service work during my Americorp days- I believe I did a homeless awareness workshop with some younger students (my god, my memory can't even go back 4 years). It is a really awesome school with a really long name and a really awesome mission. I am sure Jenna wants to do some good, but it just reeks of a guilt complex of privilege to go work there. Oh well, at least she is not just hanging around the Ivy with Paris Hilton.
