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
Growing up in a Puerto Rican household in the South Bronx wasn’t easy. There was crime, asthma and vacant lots all around us. The Bronx had burned at one point and it is still building up. There were also superstitions for every type of occasion that […]

Not a single battery more fits into the candy jar. She longed for the days when life was simple and a candy jar was filled with candy. Since when did we need to remind ourselves that we needed to recharge our minds, body and soul? Her family […]
It started off with a smell. An odor. A sense of deja vu. I recognized that smell but couldn’t quite place it. I looked around walking up to the meters. It was a basement afterall and there could be a gas leak or other odd event. It is […]
Let me set one thing straight right of the bat. I am always in a New York state of mind. Meaning, I will always be a New Yorker. However, I am making the most of my time in California -at least this time which is my […]
I was on the treadmill at my usual 5am time. I was watching my new favorite local news programs KTLA because it is just hilarious. I don’t think they take the news very seriously in Los Angeles. It most certainly is not at the quality that […]
I was watching the morning news and learned that apparently there is a controversy over pre-peeled oranges for sale at Whole Foods. And I just don’t get the controversy. Seriously, why be bothered by that concept? First off, we already ventured, as a society, down that “lazy” road. […]
