Well, I’ve pulled a muscle in my back and have been confined to my bed. So there is no better time to start writing again right? Truthfully, it is the only way that I’ve stopped in the last couple of months. It has been a complete whirlwind. It definitely has not been an easy few … Continue reading »
So I’ve gotten some emails from some readers that aren’t my grandma about working in events. Since I’ve gotten a few, I thought I’d make my response public- maybe it will help a few more! So here it goes- How did you get into a events? I realized I wanted to do events way back … Continue reading »
Hey y’all- long time no type. Truthfully- life has taken a mind of its own. Good news- I see the light maybe like two weeks away? Maybe. I think so. But in the mean time I just wanted to share something that has helped me keep my sanity. Massages. Lauren’s back has decided to also … Continue reading »
I hate being sick. I hate being sick on the weekend even more. I’m spending the weekend watching hours and hours of Friday Night Lights. Online holiday shopping and making these cookies. Oh- and working on Sunday. Womp Womp. All in all though, not a bad way to spend a sicky weekend. Hope you’re weekend … Continue reading »
So I work for the Ballet. But when the Ballet is off season, other groups come in and play. And lots of cool people come in to use the space- it’s become pretty normal to see crazy set-ups on stage. That is why this last week, when it looked like they were setting up an … Continue reading »
Monday hit me hard. Like a big slap on the face for the week. So here is to Tuesday. Let’s enjoy this one. And to start it off right: Peace out cool cats. Look around today.
I crawled out of my warm bed at 6:00AM (still no heat after Sandy/idiot landlord), went down with my fellow Harlemites, and I voted!!! So should you!!!! Two days after getting my New York State license, I used my vote for the next POTUS. I’m officially a New Yorker– totally legally 100%. Seeing the screen … Continue reading »
Welp, I’m 24. As a wise friend said- it can’t be that bad of a year when you have an TV show named after it. But Taylor Swift also has stopped writing songs about my age soooo yeahhhh. Truthfully though- I had an amazing birthday. Between my surprise birthday party at work, to an evening … Continue reading »
I’ve been wanting to go to Peanut Butter & Co. since I heard it existed. A place that is entirely peanut butter sandwiches= heaven.

Today marks my 1-year anniversary at Columbia. Tomorrow is my last day at Columbia. Very bittersweet and surreal indeed! What a year it has been! Within my year and by tomorrow afternoon, I will have completed 672 events. Insanity. Is this all happening? It still hasn’t hit me. I just get nauseous occasionally. I’ve got … Continue reading »
A year ago today, my sweet friend Kerry dropped me off at the Indianapolis airport with some hugs and I was off to New York. I arrived completely turned around and completely exhausted. I can’t believe how much has changed since that day. Grant it, I’m still often turned around and almost always exhausted, but … Continue reading »

So my family has been visiting all week (more on that later), and on Sunday night, they had signed us all up for a bike ride… in Manhattan.

First, I apologize for the crappy photos. Pictures at dusk are not fun/easy to take. Last Friday I got to experience one of those “New York things” that I had been wanting to experience since I moved here- an outdoor movie. Outdoor movies around New York City are a HUGE thing. Parks, rooftops, parking lots, … Continue reading »
