I'm Back!
Well folks, I am back in the blogosphere. I apologize for my seven month hiatus, life has been quite the roller coaster and I haven’t had a chance to document it all. Well to the few of you who are still following my lonely little blog I guess I should update you on the fact that I am no longer an east coast girl. Kids, that’s right I am finally living in Los Angeles! If you know me...

To text or not to text, that is the question.
Why do I find it strange when a guy actually texts me? Normally I don’t hand out my number to a guy at a bar because I don’t expect anything to happen after that night, but this kid is not backing down. Granted our conversations are far from engaging, and borderline boring, but this whole situation is quite different. But the question is- Is this a good different or bad different? I...
First I had two "Joes" and now I have no "Joes"
I should be relieved, but I’m not going to lie- I kinda miss the attention. Is that incredibly vain of me? Am I being totally hypocritical? Don’t even attempt to answer those questions.
I apologize for the confusion this post may cause, I haven’t been able to blog about EVERYTHING without damaging some of my relationships. Gotta keep part of my life a mystery.

Well labor day weekend was full of sin and PLDs. Drinking a bottle of poor life decisions will bite you in the ass…or the neck I guess. As most of you know my standards seem to be nonexistent, and down the shore my not so proud moments seem to be highlighted. Leave it to me to have some stories for the morning after. But hey, it was the last weekend of summer and you know what? Sorry...

Got my hopes up too quickly.
Okay so the lack of excitement in my life is to blame for my lack of posts. Rather than bore you with my redundant day to day activities, which ultimately come down to working at the bank, eating and sleeping I decided to spare you the misery and just avoid blogging. Well, I’m back now- and hopefully for good. Though the excitement in my life hasn’t increased, I am determined to make a...

A little letter for you..
Dear Fourth Chance,
Grow up. I’m sorry I never called you back. I’m sorry I’m never available to hang out when you text or call me the day of. If you want to see me have some chivalry and make plans. Do not call me the same day and ask to meet in an hour, because I will most likely have plans or lie and say I have plans. Also, grow a pair and don’t complain to a mutual “friend” that I never got...
Fourth times a charm?
I am a big believer on giving someone a second chance, hell sometimes I’ll go as far as giving them a third chance depending on the situation, but fourth chances just seem unnecessary. Long story short this guy who I went on a few dates with like a million years ago (2) is back in my life, against my wishes of course. He wants to start hanging out again, and admittedly I have prolonged our...

What standards?
What is it about an accent that makes a girl weak in the knees? I swear, my morals go straight out the door the second I hear a non-American guy talk. At that point looks aren’t even a major factor and I say goodbye to standards. It’s not the classiest approach, but I’m not going to lie, hearing a British, Irish, or Spanish accent makes me swoon.
Just this past weekend my...

The Rules.
Thanks to “Chasing Harry Winston” here are some things to keep in mind in order to properly snook for love this summer:
Friendly, outgoing, engaging, charming, whatever you want to call it, it still translates into available and desperate when you’re the one who initiates contact.
Let him introduce himself to you. At that point you will politely reward his politeness with a...
Snookin For Love
Just call me Snooki because this summer I’m looking for some loving, whether that be a DFMO, a date, a fling, or a potential husband. Hopefully things get exciting and I can channel my inner Carrie Bradshaw and start blogging about my encounters, I’m sure that will be more entertaining than looking at pictures (Lauren, that is directed toward you). I’m keeping things classy and PG-13 because...
I only listen to country songs during the summer.

Security vs. Happiness
In a long term relationship what is more important to you, happiness or security? Does the fear of being alone or a future relationship failing make you want to stay in your current relationship because there is stability? I get it, the world can be overwhelming for a single gal, but how long are you willing to let your happiness decrease in order to have some security in your love life? Life is...
The Pursuit of Happiness: 15 Lessons to Keep in...
1. The only person that can ever truly make you happy is yourself. Stop depending on everyone else.
2. People lie, stuff happens. Don’t take it too personally.
3. Want people to think you’re amazing? Start believing you are, and then they will too.
4. Smiling is the ultimate anti-depressant. Smile and laugh out loud, it doesn’t look stupid, I promise.
5. The world is never just black and white,...
Drunk words are sober thoughts.
Is that really true? I mean I get that with alcohol you’re more inclined to say and do things that you wouldn’t sober, but maybe the alcohol just gives you that extra confidence. Sure in some cases, if a guy confesses his love to you while completely obliterated it may be true, but I can’t help but wonder if the alcohol is giving the guy’s family jewels a boost of...

Real World
Well folks, after four years of what I consider the best four years of my life, college has come to an end. Drinking on a Tuesday night is now considered socially unacceptable and will most likely raise concerns. Slumber parties at the library are no longer needed. Penny drafts at Aunchies are now a fond memory. The real world compared to college seems like it won’t measure up. I’ve...

Back from hiatus.
The festival is over and in two weeks my internship will be done as well. I’ll finally be able to have a normal sleeping and eating schedule! The festival was tons of fun, but so exhausting. From my previous post you’ll notice that I met a bunch of celebrities. Those pictures are just of a few. My role during the festival was to work in the press lounge and help out with setting up...

The American Dream
While reading one of my favorite blogs (NYCPRGirls.com) I stumbled across a post regarding the American Dream, or the NYC dream. This is what I’m striving for, along with thousands of other PR hopefuls.
Landing a great paying job that doesn’t feel like work
Working from your own office with window views
Having a car service drive you everywhere in the city
Living in an elevator building...

Real World
As the college days dwindle down I cannot help but wonder what will my life be like after graduation? As I type this I’m sitting in the intern room at R.A in NYC and it’s just now hitting me that the real world is coming to get me. I always joked about not wanting to leave college, but now it’s no longer a joke. The job hunt stresses me out. There are a ton of PR girls at my...
