These last few days have all been about enjoying friends, family and all that my location has to offer. A few days ago my mum, Ling… Continue reading Recent Travels: Syracuse

My complete lack of fashion sense

I originally posted this rant on my Instagram but I thought I'd add it to the blog as well....so even more people can be put-off by my opinion on this matter. I was talking with a clothing designer friend yesterday about fashion and found myself rather randomly blurting out how I have to rethink my… Continue reading My complete lack of fashion sense

More on Goals & Limiting Beliefs

This is a continuation of my last post on goal setting. I'd like to take this opportunity to delve further into Hunter Thompson's idea of the decision between going with the flow by designing a life that accentuates your experiences and natural talents OR swimming against the current by re-inventing yourself in order to achieve… Continue reading More on Goals & Limiting Beliefs

Goal Setting

It's no surprise to those nearest and dearest to me that I'm a huge Hunter Thompson fan. I have no clue as to what prompted me to start reading his work about fifteen years ago but when I did I instantly recognized a kindred spirit. His words were enormously visual, vicious, creative and calculated. He… Continue reading Goal Setting

My NOLA Trip

A few weeks ago I took a super quick trip down to New Orleans. By super quick, I mean that I was basically there for 2.5 days. My stay was by no means long enough but it's all I could afford both time and money-wise. Nevertheless, I tried to cram in as much as humanly… Continue reading My NOLA Trip

Spring has only just sprung around here but Tuna and I have already managed to get in a few nice hikes. The photos above are from the O.D. von Engeln Preserve at Malloryville in Dryden, NY. This little known swath of land located between Cortland and Ithaca is owned by the Nature Conservancy. I've lived… Continue reading Central New York Hikes: Malloryville & Chicago Bog

A Few Cautionary Tales

I was just swapping consignment horror stories with a friend this morning and I decided that maybe it's time I shared mine. I wanted it to not sting as much before I went and said something publicly, for fear I'd say too much, but the burn is never going to go away. Let's just ease… Continue reading A Few Cautionary Tales

Life of late

It's been a hectic few days but I did find the time between moving back and forth to enjoy Kingston's St. Paddy's Day parade which is held just a mere hop, skip, and a jump from Connelly. Some friends came over beforehand to cook me brunch and we made the most of my apartment's minimal… Continue reading Life of late

A Hudson Valley Hike: Walkway Over the Hudson

This past Tuesday was so nice that Tuna and I felt the need to crawl out of our winter cave and embark on a little adventure. We both enjoyed the Walkway over the Hudson so much on New Year's Day that we decided to give it another go before the move. I especially wanted to… Continue reading A Hudson Valley Hike: Walkway Over the Hudson
