Rob recently got a subscription to Hulu on his PS3 so I have been pouring through back-to-back episodes of Modern Family. In one of the episodes Mitch announces that he thinks that kale should remain a garnish because it is not ready to anchor an entire meal. After hearing this I got more interested in [...]

I was so excited when my friend Brian invited me to his Spiderman themed 26th birthday party at Pizza Hut! Pizza Hut evokes all of these nostalgic memories of Book It buttons, personal pan pizzas and pitchers of delicious refreshing coke. Brian looked far and wide to find one of the last remaining “huts” and [...]

Beautiful people, endless bottles of champagne, supporting the arts, all underneath the moonlight in one of the most powerful cities in the free world. I felt like I was in an episode of Gossip Girl.

Riddle me this, What does a non-essential government employee choose to eat as her last dinner before an impending government shutdown on one of the gloomiest, rainiest days of the year? Cheese. And lots of it. Ten minutes away from our apartment in South Arlington (aka: the ghetto), lies a magical place called Del Ray [...]

I failed. Gossip or chismis as the Filipinos calls it is in my blood. Having two sisters, a super fun mom, and five best friends makes it impossible to keep your mouth shut about everything.

The Good: Rob got free Wizards tickets The Bad: There was nobody in the crowd. The Good: Since there was nobody in the crowd, I finally fufilled my dream of getting a burrito during the Chipotle burrito dash. The Bad: I was so shocked by my sheer luck that I ended up giving my burrito [...]

Happy 27th birthday to my best friend AJ. We met while trying to navigate the ridiculous maze of trailers at Centreville High School our sophomore year.
