FEELING: Free! I cannot emphasize that enough, so let me try again: FREE!!! The final weeks of school were a mess and completely destroyed me. Any shred I was clinging to was completely gone. I have burned that to the ground and it is done. I know there’s a new adventure for me out there,…

Greenpointing
My new neighbourhood is the greatest! I’m so excited to be a Brooklyner, especially in such a quaint, adorable part of town. Over the past weekend, I had the chance to explore and photograph just a small handful of places around town (and dine at them). No better way to beat the heat than with…

Bringing Up Baby…Cacti
One of the things I was most looking forward to in my new Brooklyn apartment was using the big windows with lots of light to raise an indoor farm of plants! Well, maybe not a whole farm, but I have quite the lot of greenery going down on the kitchen windowsill at the moment. My…

BROOKLYN!
Yes, it’s true, I’m officially moving to Brooklyn this weekend! The nightmare that is moving in NYC (don’t get me started) is more like a dream come true! As I write this, there is a perfectly passionate thunderstorm rolling overhead and my first thought is, “I can’t wait for my first thunderstorm in BROOKLYN!!” Just,…

FEELING: reinvigorated: blue skies are my high. I’m a summer baby, through and through. Seeing sunshine (even though it’s still blustery and cold) is giving me hope for warmer temperatures ahead! WATCHING: The Twilight Zone for my lesson planning. Work has consumed my life. More on that later… LISTENING TO: Mad new wave. Two new…

5 Fandom Friday: RIDES RIDES RIDES
I LOVE RIDES. I LOVE RIDES. I LOVE RIDES. I love getting in line all cocky, totally sure of yourself, trying to show off for your friends how cool and brave you are and then feeling, as the coaster goes up, that you are certainly going to die and this was a horrible mistake and…

Trader Joe’s Tuesday: Brooklyn Brine Whiskey Sour Pickes
Brooklyn Brine Co. Whiskey Sour Pickles Tastes Like: These are THE ULTIMATE PICKLES. Okay, it’s not necessarily a TJ brand, but I found them here and without a moment’s hesitation, after seeing the look in my boo’s eyes holding them, I knew they were coming home with me. They are sour, garlicky and HOT! The…

I Have A Crush…
Ever since I first watched West Side Story as a young girl, I knew I wanted to live in Manhattan. I thought that was the place for me, and in my heart, I yearned to be at the center of the Big Apple. And then, I started getting to know Brooklyn. I feel so dirty…

Used
While doing unabashed snooping for Valentine’s Day gifts, I asked my boyfriend what kinds of things he likes. That’s a pretty general question, right? His reply: Things that become more of themselves the more that they are used. Huh? Here’s a good example of this: we were in Pottery Barn a few weeks back and…

New Year's Meme by Sunday Stealing!
The New Year’s Eve Meme from Sunday Stealing! In 2014, I gained: a new job, a new friend, and a hot boyfriend. Hi! I lost: my first pet, Charlie. I stopped: working in retail – “and that has made all the difference.” I never realized how shitty I was being treated on a daily basis…

#tbt Coney Island Dreamin’
This summer, I was determined to make my way to Coney Island before the end of the summer season and, one perfect day in September, I got my wish. It was the absolute perfect Coney Island day. I got off the train and right on the Cyclone. From there, I had a latte (you can…

#tbt A Tale of Two Robots
On January 19th, 2012, I took this photo in Williamsburg, Brooklyn: Pay CLOSE ATTENTION the goofy little robots in the bottom, holding up the carnation? I loved this photo and the robots and the flower SO MUCH that I made that photo my lock screen photo for the past, like, two and a half YEARS.…
