Emergen-C

Let's break this down: $10 for 18 packets which supply sugar, vitamin C, B-vitamins and caffeine.

$.55 a go for the "energizing" found in a shot of caffeine, a slug of sugar, and a mix of vitamins.

I seriously doubt little Lori is drinking this stuff continuously throughout the day.

This is just Tang with a caffeine pill

BTW: There is NO value in taking extra vitamin C or B or any of that stuff. You'll just pee it out and it does not provide rapid energy at all. That's not how vitamins work

Hmm I know Lori didn't go to college, but perhaps coed Olivia might learn about this in biochemistry.........

Charity:Water makes it possible by creating clean water wells in impoverished villages in third-world countries. It is truly an amazing organization.

There are HUGE political, cultural, and ecological issues with drilling water wells in impoverished countries. In some areas it's really bad because it's lowering the water table and causing all sorts of internecine rivalries and jealousies.

It sounds noble, and yes, all lives ( and especially the lives of women) would benefit from access to nearby clean water.

I'm just glad Lori & children haven't made any visits to these wells to promote the campaign. The comments from Olivia would be beyond cringeworthy and intolerable.

But just like poverty tourism, I don’t think the poor need to be subjected to entitled brats

THIS, THIS, THIS

I can't agree with this more

The video at this link is beyond annoying.....IMO

'Is clout an actual word?' Lori Loughlin jokes about how much money she has spent on her daughter Olivia Jade's education after realizing the teen thinks the word 'clout' is just a slang term in YouTube video two years before college scandal

It occurs to me that the Giannuli family may be making money over allowing Daily Mail to post these videos so I'm not going to indulge in commenting on them anymore. No need to make them media stars

Good point. I will save myself the further annoyance of watching anymore. Lord knows I don’t want to help line their pockets with more $$$.

I was cleaning last night and put on an old pair of terry shorts - which I proceeded to get bleach spots on. Went to throw them out and happened to look at the tag - Mossimo. Who knew! Kind of got a chuckle as I tossed them in the trash. (They are old and weren't even worth donating to good will.)

Idk, it was reported somewhere the college counselor questioned her being there as a rowing recruit, does anyone else recall that? Since she’s legally an adult, why would the counselor be discussing that with her parents, wouldn’t they be discussing it with Olivia and or her sister? And perhaps one of the parents were present? What I’m getting at is, I have questions that those two girls knew nothing of this scam.

IIRC, that was a high school counselor, questioned Dad since the counselor didn't know Olivia was involved in crew. Other people in the school overheard the exchange?

YMMV

I think the counselor did ask Olivia and then her dad went to the school and yelled at the counselor about it. That's my recollection.

Are you questioning that the girls did know or that they didn't?

In this particular family, I think the children knew. In other families, I don't think they did. In the complaint document, there are transcripts of recorded phone conversations of parents wanting to hide the scam from their kids.

jmo

Edited to add: it was the high school counselor.

As a college counselor/school counselor, I discuss all college related things with the parents/guardians of my students because the student is still in high school. If a student is not getting things done, I speak with them first but will bring family/support mechanisms in to make sure that we have done all we can before deadlines or options thin.

I also have conversations with parents/guardians without a student present. It is not always easy to get the kid and the family in the same room at the same time. That said, if a parent/guardian began to speak with me about something that I suspected was not real or true, I would speak with the student and run to the head of the school. I have had conversations about plagiarized essays or faked/doctored information FAFSAs. It is not easy but I have a license and refuse to lose it b/c of trifling people who want an edge that is not theirs to have.

I have had a myriad of conversations with student/families/support systems about college athletics. First, they need to sign up with the NCAA and check coursework to determine eligibility. Most of my students play for their school, however. Although I have at least two students this year who play for clubs and AAU leagues but not the school. The NCAA requires all kinds of attestations to the accuracies of their reported experiences throughout that process. They also tell you about consequences of lying or accepting money to play.

Sad part is, seems all she wanted to go to school for is to party. Why do you need to be in a good school for that?

Image is everything for influencers. Right clothes. Right hair. Right zipcode. Right college pedigree. It is all about your image.
