If it weren’t for the countless sleepless nights before Thursday, September 30th, I’d easily be able to stay awake and watch all the dances without the intermissions. This was my first dance show that I’ve attended and although I’m used to intermissions during Broadway plays, I felt that in a dance there shouldn’t be an […]
Nostrand Avenue is part of Sheepshead Bay between Emmons Avenue and Avenue U. It’s a major strip where you can find anything from supermarkets to Chopstix, the best Chinese food in Brooklyn, to Radio Shack, or the local deli.

It caught my attention that an entire section in Cuba In Revolution was devoted to one man, Che Guevara, a major figure in the Cuban Revolution. I managed to sneak a picture of one of the never-before-seen images of Che’s death in Bolivia in 1967. This photo captures Che at his deathbed. The blood stains […]

This is a very popular local clothing store, because of its wide array of designer […]
Not only was Wednesday the Metropolitan Opera’s 2010-2011 season premiere of Rigoletto, but September 29th was also my first experience of watching an opera at the Met. The venue’s grandeur amazed me with its oversized sparkling chandelier hanging down in the lobby, vast auditorium, and overall elegance. I am happy to have had the chance […]
