Barbie announced that they are going the new barbie will be a Computer Engineer and Anchorwoman. But I’m a little confused. I don’t know if I’m amused by this or if there is something weird about it.

While going to UCLA there were definitely a difference of the women from north campus to south campus. North campus is where all the liberal arts and more emotional type of degrees were but south campus was where all the math and logical degrees were studied. A friend told me that any decent looking girl who was a south campus girl would get everything done for her. Meaning you could probably find guys who would help you with your work. But, if you were 9 – 10 hot you could pretty much coast your way to a electrical engineer degree because you could piggyback on any overachieving male student. (BTW, I was implying that all the hot girls were on north campus.)

Why do I bring this up? I took one look at this photo and the first thing that came in to my mind was that she probably didn’t study too hard to be computer engineer. I might be wrong, but my experiences and also friend’s experience tell me this is sadly true. So, I sit here confused on what I’m suppose to think of this.

Fun fact: I believe there are more female computer engineers than male social workers. Just my two cents.

Here are the rest of the barbie photos.

Here is the Press Release

For the first time ever, Barbie® asked the world to help her select her next career. Over the past few months Barbie® did research around the world and also conducted an online voting campaign, calling upon the world to vote for her doll’s next career – Barbie® has asked her Twitter followers and fans on Facebook to help her with this important career decision.

But that’s not all! Consumers loudly campaigned for another Barbie® career. The winner of the popular vote is Computer Engineer. Computer Engineer Barbie®, debuting in Winter 2010, inspires a new generation of girls to explore this important high-tech industry, which continues to grow and need future female leaders.

“All the girls who imagine their futures through Barbie will learn that engineers — like girls — are free to explore infinite possibilities, limited only by their imagination,” says Nora Lin, President, Society of Women Engineers. “As a computer engineer, Barbie will show girls that women can turn their ideas into realities that have a direct and positive impact on people’s everyday lives in this exciting and rewarding career.”

To create an authentic look, Barbie® designers worked closely with the Society of Women Engineers and the National Academy of Engineering to develop the wardrobe and accessories for Computer Engineer Barbie®. Wearing a binary code patterned tee and equipped with all the latest gadgets including a smart phone, Bluetooth headset, and laptop travel bag, Computer Engineer Barbie® is geek chic.

It’s a good thing he has a mask on. Or is it a she? Hmmmm.

This was definitely a great experience. Thank you Steven Seagal!

Once you get energy flowing from the special asian goji berries from the drink, try to figure out his website. I think there is “lorem ipsum” all over his website that I can’t figure it out. Make sure when you’re figuring out his website that you are listening to his music on another browser window.

I like the simplistic navigation approach. Very laissez-faire and googlish. I’m being sarcastic.

I think one of the most enjoyable things in life is seeing people that you’ve crossed paths with and seeing where they are now. I had a TA at UCLA who my friend(girl) had a huge crush on. All day and during discussions she would talk about this guy. I didn’t get it….. till now.

Him + KY Intense = Intensifies Female Satisfaction

BTW, the KY Intense website is sick and designed by Grow Interactive. Both highly recommended.

These are alot of fun to look at.

The answer you can look at the source of these photos.
