About elipongo
I'm a single, Modern Orthodox, Jewish man.
I live in Ellington CT and I'm currently the Co-President of my synagogue, Congregation Knesseth Israel.
I work as a paramedic for the Ambulance Service of Manchester, a commercial ambulance service that does both emergencies and routine transports throughout the region.
In addition to my Paramedic License, I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
I enjoy Bicycling, Reading (Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Biographies, History), Blogging, Watching Movies on DVD (Yeah Netflix!), and meeting people.
I'm looking for that proverbial nice Jewish girl who isn't intimidated by someone who's observant. I want to settle down and raise a nice, observant family.

13/f going into 8th grade.
Ok, I'm not that rich. My mom and dad have been working extra jobs just so I can go school shopping in lexington. They said that I will have about $400.00 by the time we go. I was just wondering where abercrombie and hollister are located in lexington. And I was also wondering how many jeans and shirts I can get for this amout of money. Thankyou much in advance.
I rate answers.
Well, first off, you're going to have to tell us WHICH Lexington you're talking about? There's more than one Lexington in the world, you know (Lexington KY and Lexington MA come immediately to mind).
I just visited the websites of the retailers you mentioned. Those clothes are very expensive! I don't understand the idea of paying a premium to get pre-worn-out jeans. That's something you could do all by yourself with just a little ingenuity.
Shops like the ones you mention are only really selling their name, their clothes aren't any better than those at say Target or K-Mart.
If you are set on worn out stuff, get some second hand stuff. Old clothes are CHEAP on places like Ebay.
Frankly, I think women look much more attractive in properly fitting and maintained clothing- you do want to look good to the guys don't you?
Do you ever see supermodels posing in cruddy clothes (unless they're advertising that specific product)? No, because they wouldn't look nearly as good to the guys.
Spend the money your parent are giving you wisely. If you've ever been loaded down with tons of homework from school and had no time at all to do the things you wanted to do and were stressed out about getting it all done, then you have some small idea of the burden your parents have taken on out of love for you.
Return that love by using the money wisely.
Make a list of the things you NEED for school, then a list of the things you'd LIKE to have.
Go on line to places like Froogle.com and look up the prices.
Make yourself a budget so that you can make the most of your money.
Best Wishes, I know you'll do the right thing.
