I wish I were still a small child, so that on Easter morning I could wake up to a basket full of candy. Alas, now I’m an adult, and I have to buy my own Easter candy. But that’s ok, because I can still enjoy the adorable animals that have somehow become the mascots of the holiday. To help you get ready for Easter this weekend, here are some adorable pictures of baby animals. Read More »
When I saw the trailer for The Vow, my heart immediately went mushy and I told everyone I knew that I had to go see this movie the day it came out. (For those of you wondering, it’s being released February 10th.) Starring the ever-fabulous Rachel McAdams and completely gorgeous Channing Tatum, the movie tells the story about what happens to a couple after one of them sustains a memory-erasing head injury. Epic? Yup. Dramatic? Sounds like it. Will I cry? You bet. And I’ll love every minute of it.
Inspired by my excitement for the release of The Vow, I collected the hottest (hottest!) pictures of my #1 celeb crush, Mr. Tatum himself. Feast your eyes and get ready to see more of him in a gooey, ultra-emotional, super romantic state when the movie premieres! Gah!
It seems ex-flames Ryan Gosling and Sandra Bullock are having some fun fun fun again in Austin this weekend. The couple was spotted making the rounds in Sandy’s home town at the annual Fun Fun Fun Fest on Auditorium Shores. There’s no doubt the two make a cute couple, but we gotta say, seriously Ryan?!? You could do better. And by better I mean me. Yes, me. Choose me Ryan!
Update: Turns out, the girl in the photo is not Sandra Bullock, but rather The Girl With The Dragon Tattoos’ Rooney Mara. Ryan is in Austin filming with legendary director Terrence Malick.
Consider your profile picture your viral handshake. Why, you ask? Let’s just say that, like a firm grip, the little image leaves a lasting impression. See the following scenarios to be sure you select the most flattering photo for you.
1. So… You party
Like most people, you enjoy a nice night out. The question is: How much of your party-animal personality should be reflected in your profile picture? To narrow your choices, rule out any photos with red cups and wasted faces. And, before you upload, ask yourself: What would Mom think of this? If it would make her stomach roll, pick a different one.
2. So… You’re in a relationship
We get it: You’re in love. But as cute as you two are, no one wants to see your personal pictures. Make people say “aw”—not “ew”—when viewing your page. This means no profile pictures of you making out with your boyfriend. Keep bedroom play in the bedroom instead of at your friends’ fingertips. Read More »
The Village was alaze with celebration and excitement Sunday as the 42nd Annual Gay Pride Parade took to the streets of mid and lower Manhattan. The parade comes only two days after the New York Senate voted to legalize same-sex marriages in the State of New York. NYC Gov. Andrew Cuomo was the obvious hero of the day, leaving the McCords from Real Housewives NYC as the obvious zeros. Alex and hubby hugged the outer edge of the route in extreme effort to assure camera’s like ours caught it.
Caught it we did, in addition to 100 or so more pics. So check out these 135 photos from Sunday’s historic Pride Parade. And give cheers around to NY for having the cajones to recognizing equal rights for all.

So…I’m back, just a few days away from my very last semester of college ever. It’s a strange feeling, knowing that this is the last time I’ll buy my school supplies, search for cheap books online, write down all my assignments, and swear to keep it together this year. Because when I fail to do so with all the grace and elegance I have in my mind, I can’t just say, oh well, maybe next year. Because there is no next year.
This is it, my last shot, my final semester. So I better to do it, right. With that thought in mind, I’ve come up with a few resolutions to guide me through my last semester as an undergrad. Some of these make a lot of sense; some of them are completely ridiculous. But I do intend to follow through with all of them.
While perusing (and by “perusing” I mean obsessively checking and re-checking) Facebook for the fourth time yesterday, I noticed that no one had done anything since the last time I logged in (an hour before). In a fit of never ending boredom that made signing off impossible, I decided to look at pictures of me.
Of the 300ish photos of me, 250 involved drinking and 249 of those involved me making some sort of awful face. Not like “I wasn’t ready for the camera” awful; more like, “I am going to make the ugliest face I can think of” awful. The sad part is that I can distinctly remember taking most of those pictures and consciously making the faces that are now staring back at (and horrifying) me.
I even giggled as I made one of my uglier faces and poked my head into what would have been a cute picture of friends. Why did I ever think that was a good idea?
Self Reflective Beer Goggles, that’s why.
It’s like the minute the beer hits my lips, I am somehow unable to take a picture without doing something completely stupid. Whether it is an awful face, mimicking oral sex with a beer bottle or thinking of a ridiculous scenario (“Your boyfriend just asked you to pee on him”) before snapping a selfie, I always look horribly, terrifyingly, bad.

There are over 100 million sites on the Internet. 100 million! You might think you know about all the important ones (CollegeCandy, Gmail, Google, Zappos, Kaboodle…), but there are thousands of other sweet sites out there. And more showing up every day! We get it – it’s not easy or fun sifting through the crap and porn to find those gems, so we’re gonna bring the gems to you. Just sit back, kick up those feet and allow us to introduce you to the diamonds in the internet rough.
Santa photos are a holiday tradition in many families, including mine. And I don’t know about anyone else, but I can’t remember ever liking the process of getting my picture taken with that weird old guy. Most of my memories of those experiences fall into one of two categories: when I was younger, fear, because I thought it was the real Santa and I was afraid he knew all the bad things I’d done; and when I was a little older, complete paranoia that someone I know might be walking though the mall and see me standing in line. And every Christmas, I’m forced to re-live those memories when my mom unpacks her collection of framed Santa portraits from her boxes of Christmas decorations and displays them proudly on the wall of our living room.
I bet she wouldn’t be so nostalgic if she remembered she practically forced my sister and I into those matching outfits and dragged us to the minivan to go take those terrible pictures. In fact, it wasn’t until my sister and I were old enough to fight back and actually run away from the van that the Santa pictures ended. Read More »
So cute. So easy. So the perfect way to personalize that 10X10 cell.
I’m obsessed with taking pictures, absolutely obsessed. I have approximately 44 albums on Facebook and that’s after I consolidated and cut down about 300 pictures. I can’t help it.
The digital camera changed my life. I love taking pictures of everything and anything, and capturing every drunken moment of friends passed out over toilets or park benches, of every group pic in the sorority pose, and every picture of birthdays and holidays.
My room has always been covered with the pictures I’ve taken, a visual documentary of my life displayed around my room on a cork board and on the walls. But instead of tacking photos to the wall or searching for the perfect picture frames (which happen to be really pricey), here’s a creative, easy, and cheap way to make a hanging frame of your own.
Whether your room decor is classy or flashy, this custom DIY picture frame will be the perfect wall decor to decorate your life, display your photos, and showcase your memories with some style! It is also the perfect gift to give a friend for the holidays if you’re low on cash but got lots of love. Read More »
Every week I make a list. Not a grocery list or a to-do list…or that list, because I don’t really do groceries (there is a reason why they deliver pizza) and to-do lists are totally not my scene (if such a scene even exists) and, unfortunately, I haven’t added to that list in quite awhile.
No, this list is a top ten-style countdown about the hard-hitting issues, like which mash-ups are the best ever or which apps rock my world.
This week I’m focusing on the “click click flash” that consumes your weekend. You go out, someone inevitably breaks out the camera (every 4 minutes) and you start posing like you’re ready for the cover of Nylon. Great idea, but these pictures are going to end up on Facebook for the world to see the next day when you’re sober. Oof. And with today’s technology, you might be even caught in real time.
Who’s guilty?
Actually, who isn’t? Read More »
