Day 153
Last night, I walked through two streets I used to live on in the East Village. My first apartment was on 223 E. 10th Street. I was 17 years old when I moved to the city. It feels like a lifetime ago that I used to live here and in a way it really was.
Then, I walked to my old block on 12th Street and Ave A. All of the brownstones on this street look the same. I can’t even remember...

Bangs & Vests & Boots Oh My!
About twice a year I go through my closet and blindly throw in everything that I haven’t worn in recent months. I work swiftly, like ripping of a bandaid. I only keep what I really love. I had decided to donate this old denim jacket that I hadn’t worn a long time. In this month’s issue of Vogue there is a whole page chronicling how cool denim vests are. I remembered that I had a...

I managed to get lost on the wrong subway. I was going uptown on a subway, that diverged to Queens. I got off in a deserted station. The sound of breaking glass made my heart beat faster. No one was on the streets. Rain was whipping into me and sand was blasting my face. I could not find the entrance to go into the opposite direction. I stood on the corner and felt like I was in the Twilight...

West Side Story
Yesterday I was sitting in class, bored out of my mind. The professor talks more than she listens and refuses to see other people’s point of view. I was sitting there “taking notes” aka making a to-do list of things I needed to get done when I got a text. It read, “Hey, sorry last minute but 2 extra tickets to West Side Story tonight. Want them?” That’s the...

Day 157
My Mom has been visiting for the month of June. Yeah, a whole entire month. Admittedly, I was a little nervous to how that would go. Sometimes we bicker, she asks a lot of questions, and she gets lost all the time. Also, we haven’t spent that much time together since I was in high school and that was three years ago. However, I have to say it’s been awesome. You know those erotic video...

Sunday Funday
I’m happy to report that I am no longer going to be an iPhone photographer. I have a real grown up snazzy camera with all the bells and whistles. I’ve had the worst luck with all the cameras that I’ve ever owned. They always jump into water or crash themselves against the pavement and break their lenses. I took a little day trip to Brooklyn with my Mom and we went to one of my...

i feel like i owe it to my childhood to see ramona and beezus.
I get the feeling this movie will not be able to hold a candle to the books I loved so much.
