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

Many moons ago I may have caught the film Sliding Doors starring Gwyneth Paltrow. I honestly can’t remember seeing it but I know the plot fairly well. Then again, it is not that hard to figure out. Two possible life trajectories that depend on whether she makes the […]

As a New Yorker who grew up in the South Bronx near Yankee stadium, I love baseball. As a Latina, I love baseball. As a fan of comeback stories, I love baseball. As a die-hard New Yorker, I would have loved it if either the Yankees or the […]
Was on the long highway Full speed ahead With a box full of hidden heartache Vigor and mirth were running through my tire tread No one knew the music playing inside the car And no one came to find out Just a few who wanted to dull my […]
This may be blasphemy for some. But here it goes. I like Star Wars, but don’t love it. I’ve only ever seen four films in the movie series, in the theatres. Those being Episode I: the phantom menace (which was horrible); Episode VII: The Force Awakens (which wasn’t […]
Sometimes one falls in love with a human. Sometimes a bread pudding. Other times a hot, new pair of shoes. It can happen. For instance, I just love a rainbow pair of stiletto Louboutin shoes. They are just the most perfect pair of shoes. They are completely me. […]
Selena Gomez has apparently been through some tough times in her 27 years of age. She was diagnosed with lupus and has undergone a kidney transplant. Luckily, she had a great friend who donated that kidney. Thus, even while battling health problems, she had a support network. Which, […]
