That was the End?

December8

On one Wednesday night, I was there again – in front of the theater, waiting to watch The Break of Noon by Neil LaBute. This was the last show that I was going to see in this semester. Frankly, I expected small number of people, but the place actually turned out to be very crowded, […]

Welcome to Sunnyside

December7

Sunnyside is located in Queens, between Long Island City and Woodside. Although it’s not well-known to people, it stands out from other neighborhoods in some ways. With lots of great local restaurants and other famous insiders’ places, Sunnyside is rather a quiet and peaceful neighborhood with friendly neighbors who are always willing to help you […]

In Need for Cheap Clothes?

December7

Goodwill Outlet Store is a gigantic warehouse with rows and rows of massive bins that contain clothing, shoes, books, purses, and a lot more. Everything you buy is by the pound: most of them under $2. It is ridiculously cheap, much cheaper than the usual thrift stores! If you are lucky, you can find gently-used […]

Pure Spa & Salon

December7

Pure Spa & Salon provides the best quality services! Hair, nail, waxing, massage or whatever it is, you will get the best out of it. Most outsiders probably don’t know about this spot because it’s small and doesn’t look that impressive from outside. But once you go inside, it’s an amazing experience from the start. […]

Let’s Go Vintage!

December7

Stray Vintage & More is a little shop in the neighborhood that is filled with great selections, some of them vintage and some of them unique, made by local artists. One day I was walking around Skillman Avenue, never expecting this kind of shop since it’s rather a boring part of the neighborhood. However, as […]

The Best Donut in Queens

December7

Alpha Donuts is a common diner place, but as you can see in the name they are famous for their delicious donuts! This place was ranked as a top 11 in “New York’s Best Donuts” by Gridskipper, along with the famous Buchon Bakery and Balthazar. At 11 p.m., I was craving for donuts. I just […]

Craving for Japanese Food?

December7

(the front of the restaurant) Ariyoshi is one of the few Japanese-owned in Queens, as most of the sushi places in Queens tend to be owned by Korean and Chinese people. It is like the shining star in the neighborhood. They have an extensive and varied menu along with the quick and friendly service. The […]

A Raven.. and More

December7

(Fred Tomaselli. Big Raven, 2008. Acrylic, photocollage, and resin on wood panel, 84 x 72 in.) As I walked around the Brooklyn Museum, this unique painting by Fred Tomaselli caught my eye. It combines a bird with the universe to create highly stylized, eye-popping compositions. Big Raven is inspired by the American Gothic tradition and the […]

Introducing MOMA PS1

December7

MoMA PS1 is one of the largest institutions in the US dedicated solely to the contemporary art. It was founded by 1976 by Alanna Heiss. Its former name was PS1 Contemporary Art Center, but it changed its name when it formalized its affiliation with the Museum of Modern Art. The partnership has promoted the understanding […]

Timea Anita Oravecz

December6

Timea Anita Oravecz was born in Budapest in 1975. Her artistic production is based on different mediums like sculptures, objects, installation, public arts, videos, etc.  As I searched through her work, I found an interesting piece. (“Tetrix wardrobe” Installation, Mixed media, 2006) Personally, I really like playing tetris. I know I sound like an elementary […]
