I’m Torn: Smart Phones
The world is a changin’ my friends, and I so don’t want to be left behind. That’s kind of how I feel with the whole blackberry/iPhone phenomenon. Here I am with my little, dinky LG chocolate. I used to think my phone was so cool- – I mean, it’s frickin red and can play music — but now I’m not so sure.
Do It Yourself Tuesdays: The Corkboard Jewelry Holder
I don’t know how it happened really, but over the years I’ve accumulated quite a large jewelery collection. I think a lot of it came from my Bat Mitzvah, when I got more bracelets than I knew what to do with (oh what I would give to trade all that in for cold, hard cash). Still, today I’m lucky to have a very impressive jewelery collection.
I’m Torn: Sunless Tanning
It’s a balmy 38 degrees out in Boston, and that can only mean one thing: Spring is coming! For the past few weeks, I haven’t been able to get the springtime out of my mind.

I’m Torn: The Dining Hall
[Life isn’t black and white. As much as we wish we simply loved or hated things, there is often that whole annoying gray area in the middle. Like, we hate how Walmart treats its employees…but we love the low prices! Or, we love how that boy makes us laugh….but we hate that he has no motivation in life. Damn you, gray area; you make decision-making that much more complicated!
There are so many difficult choices in life (do we love …
Pizza Doesn’t Have to Be Bad For You!
Like most college kids, I’m a big fan of pizza. It’s great for a movie night with the girls or as a post-partying 2AM snack. While I love the stuff, I’m tired of feeling guilty about eating it. Good news: I don’t have to and neither do you!
Last year in my Intro to Nutrition Class I learned a little secret: pizza doesn’t have to be a guilty pleasure. Now, I am not telling you to go on an all …
Planning a Safe and Purse-Friendly European Vacation
Trying to plan a spring break trip to Europe that won’t leave you broke? Good luck; those things are expensive! When you add up airfare, hotels, daily transportation, meals and alcohol, you could be spending close to $1500!
What’s a girl to do?
A few years ago, I backpacked through Greece with a close friend. We spent eight days traveling throughout the country, taking ferries, visiting the islands, lounging on the beach and shopping. It was a fabulous vacation and …

Girls: Take Back Date Night
Valentine’s day is coming up and I am slightly excited to say that I have myself a Valentine. Yay! Even though I like the idea of having a romantic evening planned for me, I don’t want to leave it up to the boy because, honestly, guys can be really unoriginal.
Dinner and a rom-com? No thank you.
On any normal night, I’m typically the girl that says “I’m up for anything,” or “whatever you want to do, babe.” I know, …
