I draw instead! I procrastinate. But don’t look negatively upon me! I procrastinate days before the assignment is due. I procrastinate ahead of time. Does that make sense? And what is it that I do when I procrastinate? Oh, lots of stuff. Usually planning classes I want to take, making lists of things to do, …
Today, I watched Howl’s Moving Castle. And just so you know, this is NOT a review. First off, I love Hayao Miyazaki. I think he’s a genius. I love his films. One of my favorites from my childhood is Kiki’s Delivery Service. I stated in an earlier post that I adore the town Kiki lives in …
Just another rainy Friday in New York City. Sometimes, rather than walking quickly to get from destination to another, I take my time walking and carefully observe the things around me. It’s amazing what I notice. Here are the things I noticed on this gloomy day. 1) While waiting for the Downtown E train at …
Here’s another tidbit about me: I am an intended Art History Major. Sometimes, I fear that my love for art and its history isn’t passionate enough for me to survive such a huge commitment as declaring a major in Art History. But, these two artworks that I learned in my CORC Intro to Art Class …
Viewer discretion is advised. If you have a weak heart, are easily frightened, or fit the description of any of those other typical warnings that come before a horror movie, do not advance forward! However, if you enjoy a good scare, as I do, please, continue reading! It’s best to read this at nighttime. So, …

One day, my friend will see this post. She wouldn’t let me post the pictures of her face on Facebook, but she let me post them here. [Unfortunately, she no longer wants them up. So anyone who was lucky enough to already see my lovely photos, congrats! Anyone who missed out on them, sorry. Not much …
After viewing a fellow Macaulay student’s eportfolio post on space-saving furniture, I thought it was so cool that I wanted to showcase it too! You can check out her post, here. Giving credits where they’re due. Anyways, so Space Savers. Qu’est-ce que c’est? Pretty self-explanatory. It’s furniture that transforms! And it’s gorgeous! I mean, I’m not …
On Mondays, from 4-7, and Fridays, from 12-4, I volunteer at Housing Works Thrift Shop at Gramercy. Partly for school requirements, partly for experience, and partly for the satisfaction of doing a good deed. Today, or should I say yesterday (because it is 12:30 AM), I volunteered at Housing Works, helping prepare the store for …
I previously posted about my thoughts on Menand’s Article. Today, in English class, we discussed our thoughts on college and a liberal arts education. I wrote in my notebook that I think a liberal arts education opens our minds, helps us develop skills, and gives us a chance to discover our “true calling.” The class …
