How Do You Get On The D-List?
Well happy birthday to me! Well in a matter of days. I’ll be leaving Shanghai and heading to Beijing. Now, readers, I hope you haven’t felt neglected with my lack of posts. I‘ve been very busy with creating plenty of new stories (most of them being true).
I went to Hooters with 4 of my new [...]

The Countdown is on
As the semester winds down, I need to take some time to pack up my room, pack up for China and get my studies done. This means, sadly, one thing. I will need to take a hiatus on my blog. If you feel so inclined you can still follow me on twitter.
I have projects, papers [...]

Back in the day, well-known musicians would roam the streets of Sesame. Artists from Johnny Cash to Steven Tyler to the Spin Doctors have hung out with Big Bird, Elmo and Oscar the Grouch.
A new artist will be hanging out with the furry and feathered friends. However, she’s a wonderful artist, and she’ll be singing [...]

Here’s something that kinda irked me. There is this new “viral video” that is going around and it’s not funny, informative or the least bit engaging! I watched it thinking there had to be a reason why it’s a “viral video”. and really it’s not. It’s the video about a tennis player who lost and [...]

What inspired me to write about something other than music? Well, last night Steve Rubel came to Hofstra to speak to a crowd of students. Most were there for the extra credit or to make connections, others were there for general interest. I was there for both. I’m pretty up to speed with technology and [...]

Shameless Promoting
What’s wrong with a little shameless promoting here and there?
As some of you might know, I have a job promoting a film competition, right here, in New York! And if you don’t know about it, it’s pretty cool and it’s one of those things “that people do on weekends” (like freezing in Grand Central, or [...]

Bishop Allen Covers Fugazi @SXSW
Yes, yes it is true. I did not see that coming. These indie sweethearts finished off their set in Austin this year with Fugazi’s Waiting Room. They even seemed to mock Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto’s vocal stylings. Who would have thought a Brooklyn light-hearted indie band would ever listen to or cover a D.I.Y. [...]
