My first cuppa.

Fresh Mint Tea


It's official. I've become a true Londoner. My first official "cuppa" thanks to the delicious Carmina Cafe. Where we went twice in one day. Listen, we were really excited about the tea.

A Few Things That Are Currently Keeping Me From Jumping Into the Thames

I'm knee deep in it, folks. Need to do: 12,000 word dissertation (!), two 5,000 word essays (!!), one 2,500 word essay (!!!), and one 2,000 word essay (.....sorry I passed out for a second). BASICALLY, I'm close to the end of my rope (see what I did there?!) However, there are a few things that I just can't get enough of at the moment that are making the process a little easier. Hope you like them too! ....and that you don't have to write 26,500 words in the next month because that's MY THING. GET YOUR OWN. honeyhoney - "Lost Highway" (Hank Williams cover) I've been obsessed with hh for a few years now and the obsession is not letting up anytime soon. They're such a great blend of folk, americana, and indie. Plus they are a joy to see play live since they have such great personalities. (I swear, I'm not their manager....I wish). I had the pleasure of seeing them perform at a small pub here in London and they killed it, per usual. Esp...

Amster...Dammit HOW Many Trains Do We Have to Take??

I recently took a trip to Amsterdam with my parents. I know, that sentence in of itself is worthy of a good therapy session, but none of us had been and it seemed like a cool city to go explore in the short time they were across the pond visiting me. (Plus I really wanted to sing  Roxanne by The Police whenever I saw a red light because C'MON. When else can you do that?) The city was beautiful and everyone was super friendly. It was worth the trip just for a visit to the Anne Frank House ( without Justin Bieber, that foolish child ), but we were lucky enough to fit in a few more things before we had to leave. I tried to learn a few Dutch phrases, but per usual everyone spoke perfect English. Something I'm still trying to master. Here are some of the (many, many) pictures I took during our two days: Outside the Anne Frank House Outside the library, which was obviously our first stop.

Freelancer (Unemployed) Life

Image
IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS?! God, I'm sorry. I feel like I went out for cigarettes and then just left you guys for the traveling troubadour that I met at an open mic night. Truthfully, I didn't feel like I had anything to write about when I stopped traveling around Europe and having adorable fish out of water experiences. But weirdly, a lot of life still managed to happen here in the good ol' USA (I will not talk politics) and, as I am now currently writing this in a coffee shop, my transition into Basic Brooklyn Hipster is now complete. The biggest change has been in my "career". After having a job in a different field for two years, I am back in the TV world and am currently a freelancer...which is a fancy way of saying I'm unemployed a lot of the time. It's a temporary life, but it's one that has been filled with nuggets of self-awareness and eye-opening realizations. Here are 10 things I've discovered while freelancing/riding that unemploym...
