Renovate Your Weekend Nightlife Routine With The NightOwl App

When I first heard about NightOwl, a proclaimed “all-in-one, personal resource for nightlife” I was certainly intrigued. Who, especially someone who lives in a city as huge as New York (like me), wouldn’t want something to help them navigate through the endless mediocre bars and less-than-desirable “hot spots” and on to the places where the real fun was hiding? I […]

You Plus: Work Your Way To A Better You

You Plus: Work Your Way To A Better You

Living a consistently healthy and active lifestyle is a lot like whistling. It seems pretty simple, but if you don’t have any idea how to do it or where to start, it can be difficult and confusing, resulting in nothing but frustration and a lot of drool on your chin. For some people, dedicating themselves to health and fitness comes […]

YoDerm: Bringing The Dermatologist To You

YoDerm: Bringing The Dermatologist To You

If you’re anything like me, one of the biggest reasons you put off appointments (or avoid them altogether) is because of the hassle of making the time to get there and back. It’s so difficult to fit a trip to the doctor into our busy schedules, what with the transportation time required, the duration of the actual visit itself, then […]

Three Thumbs Up for The Imbible: A Spirited History of Drinking

Three Thumbs Up for The Imbible: A Spirited History of Drinking

On Monday of last week, I felt the first twinges of excitement regarding my plans to see The Imbible: A Spirited History of Drinking at the SoHo Playhouse that Friday night. The days following, my anticipation grew to the point that, by Friday afternoon, I could barely contain myself. Now, you may think this is a slightly dramatic (no pun […]

Dirty Chick: Life with Animals

Dirty Chick: Life with Animals

When I first sat down to listen to Antonia Murphy’s audio book, I had a certain expectation in mind. For one thing, the title is “Dirty Chick” so my thoughts were immediately painted with images of young girls partying in the city, barely clothed, leaning up against one another with heavy eyelids and smeared lipstick. I was undoubtedly intrigued, but […]

This Is What Happens When You Make Your Phone Number Public: A “Textastrophe”

This Is What Happens When You Make Your Phone Number Public: A “Textastrophe”

Since the creation of cellular phones, or at least the creation of texting, communication between people has changed pretty significantly. Yeah, arguments get blown out of proportion and everyone’s tone is misread, but that’s not the type of change I’m talking about, nor is that the type of change Matt Andrews addresses in his (extremely funny) book Textastrophe. The change […]

Get Lucky with These Deals on St. Patrick’s Day

Get Lucky with These Deals on St. Patrick’s Day

Well, it has arrived. The one day of the year when it is totally acceptable (for the most part) to get dressed up as a leprechaun and drink so much that you won’t be able to see straight. When the Guinness flows like a river and the Jameson shots never end. When the Irish rule the world and shamrocks are […]

Taking a New Look at China in “The Age Of Ambition”

The Age of Ambition: Chasing Fortune, Truth, and Faith in the New China is an audio book written and narrated by author Evan Osnos. This “work of nonfiction based on eight years of conversation,” though slightly daunting in length (the whole audio book, consisting of two parts, is a whopping 17 hours long), is rich in information with fascinating facts […]

Don’t Know Where to Go for the Super Bowl? Now You Do!

Don’t Know Where to Go for the Super Bowl? Now You Do!

Ah, the time has come again. A time of excitement, of joy, of friendly and not so friendly competition. A time where bets are made, friends are lost, and an overwhelming amount of beer, wings, and cheese fries are consumed. I am talking about, of course, the SUPER BOWL. The Super Bowl this year is being held at the University […]

The Dollhouse Mirror: A Book Of Poems, A Book of Beauty And Pain

The Dollhouse Mirror: A Book Of Poems, A Book of Beauty And Pain

When I first opened the book of poetry titled The Dollhouse Mirror, the last thing I thought was that I was going to read it an additional six times immediately after finishing it. I had no doubt in my mind that I would like the work; I usually do enjoy poetry and from what I had researched about author Frank […]
