Junk Journal Highlights: Tavola with Suzelle
My Sprout Social Arboretum peer mentorship meetings with Suzelle finally left the group chat! I met Suzelle through Sprout Arboretum in 2024 and we became fast friends. When I met her, I was still working at my previous job and we kept in touch ever since. When she told me she was going to be…

DSLR Diaries: The Rest of 2020
Since 2020 didn’t end up being what anyone thought it would be, photo opportunities were very scarce this year. At the start of the pandemic, I was stuck out on Long Island for about three months (all of spring) without my camera, and once reunited with it in NYC I barely went out due to…

DSLR Diaries: Misc Fall ’19-Winter ’20
I haven’t done a DSLR Diaries for a little while, and it feels strange, so I’m rummaging through my camera roll for some miscellaneous fall-winter 19/20 photos to share with you guys. To be frank, I haven’t gone shooting much lately as it’s so cold out and the winter wind freezes my little fingers whenever…

Getting My Eyebrows Done Professionally for the First Time
As you may know, one of the items on my 30 Before 30 list is to get my eyebrows done professionally. I’ve always had thick eyebrows, and my mom would simply trim them for me with beauty scissors and an eyebrow razor to save me a trip to pain land at a salon. However, my…

Gallery Mondays: #MacysFlowerShow 2019 @ Macy’s Herald Sq
I was shopping in the Herald Square area last week when I stumbled upon the Macy’s Flower Show. This year has a galactic sort of theme called Journey to Paradisios. My phone battery was super low, so I didn’t take too many photos. While I didn’t think this theme was executed to its full potential,…

Gallery Mondays: Chelsea Guitars
A couple of weeks ago, I walked past Chelsea Guitars and saw this awesome sculpture of a woman sitting outside the shop with a mini guitar in hand. It took me a while to realize this woman is Marilyn Monroe. Boy, I’m slow sometimes! Marilyn Monoe is wearing her infamous white dress from Seven Year Itch,…

Gallery Mondays: Peace
While strolling past a school under construction in East Harlem, I saw this adorbs crochet peace sign made of yarn on the fence. Even though crochet reminds me so much of winter, this peace sign screams spring with its florals and vibrant colors. I’m not sure who created it―much less if it was just one…

Gallery Mondays: #25 by Wane Cod & Lucky Liz
I turned 23 this past weekend, and it truly occurred to me how old I am when I just looked up when the last Garfield movie was released. More than 10 YEARS AGO. What even?! Anyway, I see this truck by Wane Cod and Lucky Liz every time I run an errand for my boss…

Gallery Mondays: Biscuits & Bath Doggy Gym
Since I’m dog sitting for my roommate during her spring break this week, I thought it would be fitting to feature a piece of artwork I saw at Biscuits & Bath on the Upper East Side of Manhattan last month when it was still dead winter. Sully took obedience classes there, and I’m kind of wondering…
