I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
Happy new year! Do you have your resolutions all laid out, pressed and ready to be worn? Yes! We wear our resolutions like those old patches that people would sew into their ripped jeans. I never did that mainly because I was too lazy to sew or iron. […]
We all have our thoughts on what the previous year was like. There seems to be a collective belief that the year was surreal. I mean, think about it, we had creepy clowns springing out of nowhere. Eek. This year, while I navigated the surreal waters of the […]
Although I am Puerto Rican, I personally have yet to truly celebrate Three King’s day; which is the last of the 12 days of Christmas. For some, Three Kings Day, or Epiphany, is one of the most important holidays on the Puerto Rican calendar. As it is, many […]
When I was a kid, I used to watch everyday the television game The Price is Right. It was a bit of a fantasy for me. I would watch the show and dream of both the small and grand prizes. For the longest time, I dreamt of living […]

This year I flew more than 40,000 miles. I flew countless of flights and was delayed more times than I can count or remember. This year, started using waze (the gps app) in order to figure out how to get around Los Angeles in a quicker manner. By […]
Just recently, thre Maltese Falcon was trending on twitter as a new set of people come to appreciate this gem of an old film. I love film noirs and Maltese Falcon is one such film. One of the best things about film noirs are the “Macguffins”, essentially objects […]
The other day I was shopping. Well, that could have been any day, really. I was at this store. Now that is odd for me since I mostly shop online now. I must say while I love shopping on Amazon, there was something cool about shopping in […]
During the holidays you try to get past the moments of craziness of the year so that you can focus on the beauty of the now. This year feels like it has been an especially tough one. Although, if I think about my own personal day […]
My son’s big day is here. It is Chrismukkah! (Is there an emoji for that?) My son has been counting down for weeks now. And he is beyond ecstatic. Besides being happy to get his gifts, he also reminded us that Christmas is about family and […]
