Alumni Weekend 2012

Alumni Weekend 2012

This past weekend, I visited my alma mater Marist College for their annual Alumni Weekend. Although it wasn’t my first time visiting the college since graduation, it had been a few months (a year and a half in some cases!) that I had seen my friends and former classmates. We spent the weekend going out…

First Day of Fall

First Day of Fall

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but today is the first official day of fall! In honor of the arrival of what seems to be everyone’s favorite season, here a few things I’m looking forward to- in picture form. What are some things you’re looking forward to about fall?

Thoughts on Plastic Surgery

Thoughts on Plastic Surgery

Plastic surgery has always fascinated me. While I don’t enjoy watching the actual procedures happen (if you’ve ever watched someone’s nose get broken during rhinoplasty, you’d agree with me), I think the stories behind them are so interesting.

My First Mets Baseball Game

My First Mets Baseball Game

One of the most exciting parts in a relationship of any kind — whether it’s with a friend, family member or boyfriend — is experiencing something for the first time with that person. For example, my boyfriend got to experience his first time seeing a cow in real life (he even pet it, too!), his…

Rockland Bakery

Rockland Bakery

There are a few foods I simply couldn’t live without. Chocolate is probably number one, but coming in at a close second is bread. Luckily for me, my fast metabolism allows me to eat as much bread as I want and not worry about it. So you can imagine how excited I was when my…
