Do You Have “White Girl Problems?”


What began as the awesomely honest Twitter account, @whitegrlproblem, documenting the perils of a privileged existence, is now the memoir of the one and only Babe Walker.  I really wanted to interview Babe for this post, but I saw on her Twitter that she was tired of doing interviews and tired of being tired all morning so I left her alone to rest and do hot yoga.  Having the same fashionable, yet stressful anxiety issues as Babe, I totally understand where she’s coming from.  I mean, no one understands the inner workings of Lauren Conrad like us or the horror of people putting jeans in the dryer.  Even in today’s economy, these can be serious issues.

Babe Walker is basically me only with a trust fund and a memoir.   I guess a blog is kind of like a memoir though.  Like Steve Jobs or Elizabeth Taylor, I would like to leave behind a legacy someday.  Perhaps, writing a memoir, being in a movie, or inventing something is how I can be legendary?  I’m not quite sure if people will remember me as a dreamer or a drama queen, but I won’t be there so I don’t really care.  I know this wasn’t much of a book review because in most book reviews people actually tell you what the book is about.  However, for me, this book was a spiritual experience.  One you too can experience for yourself by reading an excerpt on BabeWalker.com and/or pre-ordering it on Amazon.  It’s like a shaman for socialites in book form.  OMGucci I’m so inspired right now!
