I’m sure there’s some statistic somewhere that says x% of people have worked in a retail environment at one point or another. Some do it for the summer in high school to support their latest iPhone addiction their parents finally made them pay for, others do it to get through college years and pay for their…

Ladies: Own Up
I am usually a pretty big fan of Huffington Post. I often find their articles funny, insightful, refreshing, and generally pleasant to read. There’s been many a day that HP (not Harry Potter this time folks!) is where I get a bulk of my news from. Previously long commutes and all, CNN can get a…
Let’s talk about…. The Port Authority [Pt. 1]
Port Authority Bus Terminal. Also known as PABT. And yes, it is VERY similar to that yearly exam from your gyno. Invasive, uncomfortable, and depending on your results after the experience it might just be total devesatation. First, let’s talk about the layout. This Monmouth beast has 3 floors + the escalator that somehow even…
Next Stop: #misadventurecronicles

So rather than be happy they make a point of exposing a flaw in that person. It also states: Hating, the result of being a hater, is…
Who let me adult?! I can’t adult!
What do you meeeeeean I’m an adult?! What do you meeeeeean I’m almost 30 and this apartment is now all mine. Yup. Somewhere between astonished, terrified, and elated is where I sat on my secondhand sofa last night. Let me explain. I grew up in a house where my mother, bearer of 4 children, was…
My Mexican Mother is in a Fight While Riding A Horse
So. Today I left work feeling extremely frustrated because, well basically my high end, top of the line company wants my store to look like something close to party box exploding in a Walgreens. Small holidays are no longer small holidays and everything has be celebrating on a level 30, all the while posting on…
