Euro-Vandals & Tagged Up Subway Cars

It has come to my attention that Europeans from Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, Denmark and Norway, come to NYC to vandalize, or well, tag up/ create a “piece”, on subway cars for street cred back home. According to Gothamist, a few years ago, a Daily News report found that 70% of elaborate subway car graffiti is created […]

Summer Hacks I’ve Never Thought Of

Hello friends and Happy End-of-July. I know, I know… Summer’s almost over! But don’t fret because we still have August and you should totally make the best of it since it will probably fly by too. Get to the beach. Have that BBQ. Do that outdoorsy date. Watch the sunset by a waterfront with a […]

Actually, I still prefer pen and paper, never mind that question. I have a white Macbook, little ol’ 13 in. I’ve thought of investing in a Macbook Pro because […]

Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow

I’m obsessed with Amy Winehouse’s cover of “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” – a song originally written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King and originally recorded by The Shirelles (wiki.) It’s such a beautifully written song. Lyrics so true, honest, and prudent all at once. Our generation doesn’t feel this way anymore, nor do they ever even express themselves outside of […]

Hello, Warby Parker

I can’t sit here and complain about my Acuvue 2 week disposable contacts because I always wear them longer than I’m supposed to so the following problem is totally my fault; between allergies, end-of-day dryness, and just my dirty hands, my contacts have been on my LAST NERVE. What sucks most is that I’d like […]

Cleaning out the inbox this AM and opened all the lovely Happy Birthday emails from smart email marketers over at places like Sephora, Virgin Atlantic, CVS, and especially Capital One. Capital One gave me a special reminder in their email that I have to share with you all. For those without patience  to watch the […]
