Fan Art Fridays: Smart, Strong, and Educated, Featuring Tina Belcher
If I’m not mistaken all the college students in the U.S. from the spring class of 2015 have graduated, as well as the majority of grade school students here in New York. I’ve been seeing a few students still travelling around in their caps and gowns during the last few days of June, so graduation…

Trails and Ways @ Mercury Lounge
So last week Thursday I went to my first 21+ concert at Mercury Lounge to see Trails and Ways! My friend Karina joined me, and we had so much fun. Waterstrider opened the show at around 7pm with a song that started putting me to sleep (it was either “White Light” or “Calliope,” I really don’t…

Gallery Mondays: Life Is Beautiful
The one thing I love about Brooklyn is the amazing street art you’ll find as you walk through the neighborhoods. There’s something to love about graffiti that isn’t vandalism. I found this gem on the side of a building on Roebling and N 9th. I really like the way the pink writing is sort of…

Gallery Mondays: MTA Subway Fare Evader
The New York City subway is a gallery in itself. The 14th Street A, C, E, L subway station is no exception. Tom Otterness’ Life Underground is a collection that has intrigued me since I was a little girl. The bronze sculptures are put into some very comical, cartoon-like situations that almost seem human. This one stood…

#OITNB Season 3: Woah there, Alex Vause Is Back?!
About seven minutes into season 3 episode 1 of Orange is the New Black titled “Mother’s Day”, I had a WTF moment. I did one of those double takes, because I really cannot believe Alex Vause managed to get herself back into Litchfield. What even?! Okay, screenwriters and producers, I have some questions: 1.
